ENG PLAYERS I BESEECH YOU
I have been informed that you guys are getting part 4 of episode 7 tomorrow, which means we are FINALLY going to get the official romanization of Revaan's name, somebody please tell me because I need to know what it is.
like, yes, it's probably just Revan/Levan, but look, I'm sitting here with my finger over the button of all these Laverne and Shirley jokes and just waiting for the opportunity to deploy them --
#art#twisted wonderland#twisted wonderland spoilers#twisted wonderland episode 7 spoilers#twisted wonderland book 7 spoilers#twisted wonderland episode 7 part 5 spoilers#twisted wonderland book 7 part 5 spoilers#(not me realizing that meleanor doesn't actually appear non-silhouetted until part 5 so uhhhhh. whoops.)#(i know a bunch of you read the spoiler-tagged stuff though so i'm putting my life in your hands)#revan would be the funniest one i think because it's just raven but with the vowels switched and i'd be over here going WHAT COULD IT MEAN#anyway i'm here to give the people what they crave and it's obviously references to 70s american sitcoms that spun off of happy days#mork and grimdy. i-is that anything.#the problem of course is now that i might have to actually come up with a bunch of laverne and shirley jokes#when i haven't...actually watched it in a million years#(my personal pool of media i consumed growing up is a good 60% made up of random things i found to watch at 3 am because of insomnia)#(this probably explains a lot about me) (the opinions about zorro adaptations anyway)#hold on let me marathon all eight seasons and -- wait i'm just now finding out there was also an animated series#in which they joined the army and their sergeant was a literal cartoon pig but also they went to space and fought giant gorillas?#but how does boo boo kitty factor into this

siffrin starts the game with oddly empty pockets for a rogue who has a habit of stashing away every little trinket that isn't nailed down

Eggs for Killie is over!
I award myself the 150th egg for all of the little bits of art. Thank you so much for inspiring me to make them! It’s been really amazing to see all the hard work and to truly appreciate the wide range of crafts and activities everyone can do. Bobbin lace? Shoemaking? Knife forging? Translating Irish? It’s genuinely incredible.
I also really appreciated the people who were taking a rest, too. Thank you for that as well.
And I SUPER, SUPER appreciate everyone who was going through saying encouraging words, leaving replies/reblogging with comments, or liking all these posts. That was also a huge outpouring of kindness and time. I saw you doing it (and tried to make sure OPs did too) and any credit for people feeling empowered? That’s for YOU.
I know for a fact that people were following each other simply because they spotted one of their people through doing this. Thank you for being here - and being brave enough to find each other! 
If you have a project you were working on specifically for this, and missed the inbox, drop me a message - I don’t want to miss you.
150 eggs x 60g (weight of medium-large chicken egg) is 9000g of eggs.
That’s 16.8% of Killie’s body weight in eggs.
I am planning to write a book about Killie and I think it will be very VERY funny to acknowledge every single username who contributed in the acknowledgements…
…. Because I am planning to throw them back at you.
Now rest up, everyone. April Fools tomorrow, we gotta make the REST of the website unusable.
#eggs for Killie#to be completely honest in the tags: this was also a lot of work and lost a lot of followers! the follower loss rate worked out at a rate#of 1 follower per egg. however a lot of them were randoms who followed and then unfollowed.#I only noticed because I was wondering what the heck was going on.#I am not interested in having followers and I am far more interested in YOU and YOUR WORK#but just to be real about this kind of thing because the other side of creativity and bravery and encouragement and support#and to be quite frank - visibility and attention - is that you WILL annoy people!#and that is also perfectly okay and part of the bravery of the process - putting stuff out there and sharing it knowing that its purpose#is NOT to be Loved By All. It is to CONNECT you with other people who will UNDERSTAND you#not to grovel for clout from people who aren’t really interested. we don’t make things to be liked by bots. we make them to find each other.#so this tag essay is here to explain the other side of the courage and determination of egginess really. this is why I do stuff on tumblr.#this is why I enjoyed this so much. this is the political manifesto behind EVERYTHING I make and do really.#this is not for everyone. it would be worse if it was. but if it’s for you? come take a seat.#-#and also to be fair this definitely probably made your dash unusable#and I’m sorry.#and my own sibling wanted to snooze me. you are in excellent company (my sibling.)#but yeah. thank you. this was fun.#be kind to yourselves and each other!

My favorite thing about science is that it usually says that nothing in our world is specific ,categorysable or simple
And it usually is funny because
"Oh you study Xscience? Can you tell me about X?"
'X doesn't exist.'
Love science
#what is a language? how do you define language?? there is no language.#Fish? nope theres no fish?#Gender?? sex?? no its just random charateristics of individuals that we asigned qualities to by some reason.#and then we also have natural variation that makes it make less sense#i love science#i am currently watching a geologist explain what a rock is#its beautiful#science#linguistics#biology#marine biology#geology#EDIT: maybe i wanst clear enough. i did not mean things dont exist. i think that perfect definitions can't and shouldn't realy be.#You can define anything#but that doesnt mean things outside of taht definition suddenly dont exist. that is whats funny to me#the fact that someone people think everything can be clearly defined . it cant be.#Theres no one definition of fish taht works to my knowledge. but there are still fish swiming in the sea right?#the funny thing to me is that things exisy regardless of they have a definition or not. they dont care if you understand. they still exist.

dont know why i love that specific trope so much but this is so good. the trope ever actually
#i have a feeling that the thing that pulled me into liking this trope MAY be actually this one random exposure to THE SUN THE SUN THE SUN TH#that ive had years ago. at some unknown point and i dont even know where did i see it#i have so many thoughts on it and yet dont know of any way i can explain it. but this trope is so good#fallen london#sunless sea#failbetter games

The amount of likes makes me believe media literacy is dead and buried into the ground. I don't like sounding so condescending but C'MON. Tai Lung was so self-centered he started going into a murderous rampage through the city when he got rejected‚ hurting innocent citizens and their homes in his way. Yes Shifu did put a lot of expectations on him but that doesn't excuse his behaviour or makes him right. Oogway didn't choose him because he saw how dangerous that could have been. He was jailed after he tried to kill them ffs. Tai Lung seeing Shifu not oposing to Oogway's choice as betrayal doesn't mean it was an actual betrayal.
None of the furious five tried to destroy the city or force their way to the dragon warrior title just because Po was chosen. Tai Lung was just power hungry and not a good person at all.
It's very tiring to see the amount of people who want to justify antagonists who gave no qualms or regrets about hurting innocent people. (Tho it happens irl so I'm not surprised). Would this guy have defenders if he was a dirty midget raccoon instead of an humanoid muscular strong handsome leopard man with an amazing design? Genuine question.
#also no this tweet isnt ironic#the guy was explaining how “shifu and Ooway made him that way”#what#im aware this post is very random bear with me#this makes me feel better because I think a lot of tdp takes are wrong#you know what seeing how things are im probably right. gotta ask condescending for a sec here#kung fu panda#tai lung#twitter#kfp

headcanon that people of the islands sleep schedule is like, four hours later than average.
they wake up at mid day, and sleep well past midnight. kids begging their parents on weekends to pleeaaase please let them step up just a little longer to watch the sun rise. early-riser visitors / tourists having to adapt to their horrid schedule because stars forbid theyre up and about at 10:30.
#radio rambles#isat#in stars and time#the island north of vaugarde#is that a tag? idk#anyway.#random thoughts go!#im imagining like. streets full of people and string lights at markets even though it is waay way dark#pretty imagery yknow??#i imagine as well they might utilize down-turned lanterns / lights to minimize light pollution#stars are important after all…..#uhmuhm uhm if new years is still a thing in universe#it would most likely be celebrated by feasting! since it would take place around their dinnertime anyway#(im thinking that their schedules are still. the same just. shifted lol)#(also yea i know people feast for new years anyway but. but. whatever whatever hfjdd)#uuuhh#mmmmm#bit of a stretch but might also explain siffrins sleeping habits…#ofc they have been Off the island for a while but. travelling on their own for so long… it would be silly. if his body just. never adapted#uhuhuh#ok i think thats all#ask me question if u want 👍 theres no real substance to this hc i just think it would be neat#or!! add on!

Not my mom coming up to me randomly asking "how did the roman empire fall" out of nowhere hoping for a quick answer. Mother people have been talking about this for over a thousand years how am i supposed to give you a one sentence answer jfkfllddk
#screaming about this lol#sometimes she just shows up with the most random historic questions and i can never figure out why#it's a constant challenge for my memory and ability to easily explain stuff so good i guess?#it surely is entertaining#and i must say she will stay there and listen to me rant about these random things for a good while#it's like a free geek out card that sometimes shows up ktjdlfl#historyblr#studyblr#uniblr#cris speaks

When Cas and Dean are at the bar waiting for the cupid to show up at the end of season 8, as soon as the woman enters and speaks with the barman Dean says that it's like the first 5 minutes of every porn he has seen, thinking the future couple is going to be the barman with the woman.
But the thing is, Cas probably knows already who the cupid is. The woman. So, from his perspective he might think that Dean is referring to gay porn.
#and here I'm assuming Dean is talking about the woman#but maybe not#bi dean#I don't know if I explained that thought well enough#don't hesitate to ask if you didn't understand a thing#it's already too late for me and the end of the week#my brain isn't functioning anymore#destiel#deancas#castiel#dean winchester#spn 8x23#Sacrifice#my random thoughts about destiel

Hello, here's a short poem I thought of
'When I didn't get the joke'
My humour is
not broken,
nor bruised,
but I am,
perhaps,
a bit confused
#from your friendly autistic who was playing around wording with a meme#'my humour is broken' always seemed a wierd phrase to me. that's not something that's breakable?? and yeah I know it's not literal but stil#I didn't get it#and so#you get a random poem with a starting phrase that's a take-off of a meme#about how people think things are funny that I don't but. it's because I didn't understand it fhdhdhdhdhfh explain it and I'll laugh#a common occurrence is me getting confused :/#whatever I hoped you liked my tiny poem with a-twenty-times-longer-tags-ramble (number is exaggerated)#I get really scared posting anything with a poem or doodle ':D#personal#poetry#why are you still here the post was eleven (number's exact) tags ago

i love when tv shows have a "messy" house that is so obviously a House That Is Staged To Look Messy. like i come from a long line of people with hoarding ocd i can TELL when ur mess is inauthentic which it CLEARLY is
#text#and why would there be a random patch of mold that hasnt spread#at the bottom of the wall in the Middle of the wall that doesnt touch anything with water or a vent or Anything#UR MESS IS INAUTHENTIC AND MY DISBELIEF DOES NOT SUSPEND THAT FAR#i need to figure out how to explain it so i can be a set design consultant for a really specific thing#that would be the perfect job for me. 2 shifts for year and i get to tell people why theyre wrong and stupid AND i get to traumadump a bit

Rip aeschylus you would’ve loved take me to church by hozier





Source: “Achilles in Love: Politics and Desire in Aeschylus’ Myrmidons” by David D. Leitao
#it’s a pretty good essay you should check it out if you love gay stuff and ancient greek politics#one hard thing about studying classics tho is that essays sprinkle in random greek words that I can’t understand#but it does a good and thorough job at explaining different concepts#so yeah I enjoyed it#the myrmidons has me in a chokehold fr#‘had you no reverence for the unsullied holiness of your thighs/ungrateful for the many kisses I gave you?’#<- I need that shit tattooed on me#greek mythology#patrochilles#achilles#patroclus#aeschylus#the myrmidons#the iliad#hozier#classicism#tagamemnon

In the terms of cookie run kingdom you're kinda like the pure vanilla to my shadow milk cookie
i dont play crk but my friend explained to me the lore and those 2 sounded so much like yuu and shunkun so i had to(ФωФ)
(+process pics in read more!!!)

never drawing cookie run kingdom clothing ever again I fought for dear life even though ive drawn genshin clothing before /j
#re:kinder#yuuichi mizuoka#shunsuke takano#fanart#parun#my art#cr kingdom#anyway yes i do not play it merely because my phone would like. die but i wish i could for the yuri#but my friend's phone did survive having the game and as he got to da shadow milk story or something we were like#“isnt that just. yuuichi mizuoka cookie#like ITS INSANE THE DYNAMIC BETWEEN SM AND PV IN THERE IS LIKE. ABSURDLY SIMILAR#who in devsisters played rekinder#now i can have a way to explain why i cannot stop drawing these two to the youth/j#i may have fought for dear life to make the clothing work with the sillies#usually i do not have to plan my color i am able to mess with its values by eye and hardly have much issues with it#but the clothing of the cookies is so well suited to their original character design (which. it should be like that its very good)#so it makes it a bit hard to put that clothing into characters with drastically different base color palettes JAKDJANFNANF#im specially saying this about PV and Shunkun because the light cone colors are balanced by PV having dark skin so it doesnt really clash#but Shunkun's skin color is like. almost the same as the cone so i had to do a whole thing where i made a rough vision of color#usually the way i color is i simply go part by part. color one part and shade it all in one go#as i said i have ease at balancing the values of things with my own eye so it hardly is ever an issue#BUT NAWWW I DID A WHOLE LAYER OF JUST. MESSING WITH EVERY COLOR THAT WAS GONNA BE ON SHUNKUN AND ITS DARK TONES#so yes thats the extra random pic of shunkun with messy coloring in the progress pics that was me figuring out in what way to go about it#very helpful i recommend to do that if you ever end up in that situation its good like#it made me kinda wish i did it with yuu since i did struggle a bit with his colors too albeit not as badly as with shunkun#its much easier to keep progressing on a drawing's coloring once you know how itll look like by the end#so yes do recommend that technique#thankfully i dont really have to do it drawing the sillies normally since ive specified their colors in advance since i started drawing em#but still very useful for these kinds of things where i draw them with drastically different clothing wwww

blocked some stranger on some randos post because in the replies they said "oh sweet summer child". not to me and they weren't even being condescending i just felt such a primal rage i blacked out. i kinda think if you call other people sweet summer children you should be beheaded in the town square
#good idea generator#if i actually knew anything at all abt got i could work in a winter is coming joke#but its not happening. speaking of. why are those phrases literally the only lasting impact of that worldbuilding lol#to be fair again. have not watched or read it. so maybe it is. but like i found out abt the multi year seasons like. last year#for a show as popular as got? just seems odd that you can even not know that. i knew a bunch of other random facts#to me that small worldbuilding fact is 100x more interesting than literally anything else a fan has said. ever.#but it doesnt seem to like... matter... in any way.... does it impact the plot and yall just dont talk about it??#why not?? thats the most interesting part. thats the thing that makes it not discount medieval england like i assumed it was#sure that assumption could be counteracted by reading the books but also i would expect that fact to be like. sentence one in the pitch#idkkk maybe im the weird one for caring abt small worldbuildinh details like that. but also i rlly dont think something like that is small#multi year seasons would RADICALLY alter human life in so so so many ways#so either none of that is in there and its pointless flavor (disappointing but explains why its never mentioned)#or its integral to the world and plot and yet 0 fans care to mention it ever. for reasons unclear. ?????

at least i finally learnt why czechs take name days so seriously, like Your Family Gives You Gifts seriously (and also why the czech word for name day is closer to 'saint day/holy day' which is also the same word for holidays like christmas or easter) - each day of the year had a dedicated catholic saint, and these names (and their variations) were the ONLY given names people were allowed to use. i suppose this is also why each name has several nickname variants and very few people are called by the name that is written in their legal documents.
#many things are clicking into place for me. yay#ran into this because the calendar portion of the astronomical clock in prague has a huge circle with all the saintly names on it#this still does not explain why czech last names are the way they are (random nouns and adjectives)#in czech people are like 'i got this nice thing for my name day :)'#in norway i think at best u get free meatballs at ikea
