mordin solus most character of all time. blorbo of the century. he is babygirl (he is an old man but also in his 30s). committed so many war crimes (but sees inherent value in all life and will die to preserve it). he is a doctor and a healer (will also fucking kill you). he doesn’t understand romance (but provides enthusiastic sex education for people in cross species relationships). worked in espionage doing unthinkable things (also performed in gilbert and sullivan). he has everything. he is the ultimate. he is the very model of a scientist salarian

A snake story, based on an experience I had while I was in Florida.

crying because an elf prince, dwarf lord and a fucking king of men dropped everything and ran over 100 miles with barely any rest, to rescue a couple of halflings (who were worth nothing outside the shire, and functionally little more than a burden) because they were their friends.

screaming and throwing up because the golden boy of gondor, the steward's eldest son and his pride and joy; noble heir of the house of húrin, sacrificed his life for those self-same halflings

she’s really on to something here

There’s that post that’s like ‘everyone should get into a tiny niche fandom at least once’ fully agree, that was really fun -- but I would like to add that everyone should get into a fandom where their opinions run counter to major fanon because it really teaches you about sticking to your guns and trusting your interpretation of the text without having to rely on peer validation

because WHAT are people talking about sometimes

This is definitely a dude living his best life.

This is TWO dudes living their best lives, and I'm so fucking happy every time I see Jack Black and Kyle Gass together because how often do you actually get to see the spotlight on two people -- one of whom is a HUGE film star at this point -- who are fat and aging and yet also still goofing and rocking and enjoying one another's company despite the wild changes life has brought their way?

Kyle has talked about the difficulty he faced in watching his partner hit it big without him, and how they communicated about that and how they balance their friendship with their respective creative pursuits when they're not working on a Tenacious D project. I respect the fuck out of him for putting in the work to maintain that friendship and I respect the fuck out of both of them for being Peak Fat Old Goof Goals

me seeing a mutual's happy post: "hell yeah buddy :)" *hits like*

me seeing a mutual's sad/vent post: "aww no buddy :(" *hits like*

The like button is heart shaped for a reason and the reason is that it means I love you

Far worse, in my opinion, than the famous “he wouldn’t fucking say that” is “he WOULD fucking say that, as part of his facade, but you seem to think he would mean it genuinely”

IN THE FACE OF TURMOIL CHOOSE SILLINESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[ID from alt with minor edits: A digital artwork with electric blue lineart and pastel colouring. On the right is a cartoonish boy with pale skin and brown messy hair. His mouth is in an open grin and his eyes are squeezed shut. His arms and legs and splayed out as if he is mid-jump. He has a green t-shirt, white shorts, and coral shoes. To his left is an explosion, with shooting stars, smiley faces, love-hearts, twinkles, rainbows and confetti bursting out everywhere. There is also a small autism creature in the midst of the whimsy blast, smiling slightly and leaping. Multicoloured text reads "weaponise your whimsy" in all caps, with the first two words above the drawing and the last one under it. End ID]

Commissions for @cyanus-corvus ! thank you for commissioning me~

Don't usually share work stuff but I do work in climate policy and nearly every memo I write includes some variation of "government funding for this obscure but necessary area of climate mitigation research has been multiplied (sometimes by like, 1000x) under the Biden Administration" and while I know the oil permitting stuff is much splashier news there's a whole world of work that needs to be done under the surface that Biden is doing. And if he doesn't win in 2024 all that progress goes away and the climate is absolutely fucked

Like I get that it’s not eye-catching but Biden spending $6 billion on demonstration projects to decarbonize heavy industry is probably on its own the most climate-friendly thing a president has ever done

Reposting mainly because in the UK the Prime Minister has openly entered the war on climate change on the side of climate change and I need the reminder that less stupid things are happening eleswhere.

Also, the Biden administration just "paused" some LNG (liquified natural gas, aka super-cold methane) infrastructure development, which is HUGE. I cannot stress this enough. The reason global warming has accelerated so fast, suddenly, unprecedentedly? Very likely because of natural gas AKA methane production. Mostly in the US.

It is HUGE that they're working against this trend.

Remember, if you have fun while History posting you're a slack-jawed pseudointellectual. But if you approach it with any nuance at all, you're an elitist who does not actually care about the accessibility of knowledge.
