i need y'all to know i saw a tiktok earlier in which someone was earnestly asking where to go on the internet that's still fun because all the places they go feel mean and cold and multiple people in the comments said tumblr so maybe possibly prepare the docks for a new exodus

thinking about how interesting the qsmp fandom is from like an analytical standpoint. it was/is a very specific ecosystem with a myriad of dynamics when it came to the way people interacted with each other/as a fandom entity/with the content they watched idk it’s fascinating to me

I always have to preface my character posts w These Are Just My Thoughts/Im Just Thinking Aloud or some other variant of that phrase bc i fear all my takes are surface level observation w no real analytical meat to them and i would not be caught dead calling that Character Analysis

gripping the edge of the table thinking about how there is both a parallel between edgeworth and maya wrt edgeworth thinking he killed his own father and the brief possibility that it was maya that killed her own mother and the fact there is a straight line of cause effect between those two actions…..gregory who lies to misty because he doesn’t want to ruin his sons life so misty abandons her family and maya grows up without her mother and doesn’t recognize her when she sees her again. the parallel revenge plots they get caught up in. whatever . WHAT ever. whatever

the rpg experience for me is playing them for 300 hours and then spending 1000 hours constructing an elaborate labyrinth of unbelievably dense oc lore on top of them

Worst Guy Ever - Also, Unfortunately, Very Homosexual Convo. (subtextually)
#Evidence of Tom being a bad boyfriend is also in a file labeled 'Tom wants to fuck Steth so bad'#but seriously I wanted to deck him in this convo v_v FORTUNATELY it is bearable bc I think that's the point - like the narrative is#showing that Tom is 'ruining what he's worked for' by being a dick to B'Elanna so I'm not like meta-mad about it (like OTHER Tom/B'Elanna#moments) <- Ex: Tom saying 'I have a beautiful girlfriend' instead of something like#'someone I care about/a girl I love' but that's a like...tv writing thing. I don't like it but I know it's a tv writing thing#Woman as like a status symbol instead of a person you care about#I never care about Tom's inner conflict in Tom episodes (with the exception of the one where he gets thrown in solitary - him going full#rogue was fun) bc his inner conflict is always the most boomer bullshit#Literally he's just having a midlife crisis in this one.#BUT...GUYS....IMPORTANT NEWS...BULLDOG'S IN THIS ONE??#BULLDOG ?? My enemy BULLDOG BRISCOE from Frasier??? Good to see you man! This makes sense.#Steth....WHY would you choose to turn into a guy with a detailed and established web of interconnected relationships on a ship with a#complex hierarchy? Steth really thought he'd be able to play it cool on VOYAGER...the USS codependent...nu uh#they sniff you out and maul you like gophers on that baby#EHHEHEEH the Emh is funny as hell...'WOW...I had no idea me being so perfect at everything was making you feel bad! It all makes sense to#me now...' / Steth(as Tom):....Yeah v_v#SNRKEHEHEHEHEHEH GUYS..I'm taking a mental health day so I can reflect on myself and how even though I'll never be as good as the Doctor#I'm probably still worth SOMETHING#Steth(as Tom): Hey now B'Elanna...let's not go around blaming Steth for things. He's a pretty cool guy actually.#Okay yes confirmed! The above convo is also to show that Steth is 'being better' than Tom by telling B'Elanna what she wants to hear#unfortunately this does not make me like Tom more#SHE WANTS SO LITTLE. SHE ASKS FOR SO LITTLE.#BC Tom DOES say that B'Elanna is 'overreacting' and basically calls her crazy even when it's not for a later moral lesson and#this isn't framed as bad by the narrative. If your girl's always mad at you then your relationship ISN'T good.#There's literally NO resolution once again to their relationship issues. Tom shows her his garage program and when B'Elanna says she feels#she doesn't value her he says 'Yeah I do.' episode ends.#T/B scenes are literally [conflict arises then they argue or kiss] <- it is never...RESOLVED...#Me @ The Writers: (B'Elanna voice) Is this your idea of an adult conversation?#OH. Gay subtext: I hate spending time with my girl I want to hang out and live the bachelor life with my cool guy friend.#Tom's grease monkey program might as well be a subscription to playgirl magazine sit DOWN dude

Some kind of writing demon has possessed me and I have been writing dear emperor lore for an hour without pause. Who knew governments could be this fun.
Also I finally got around to figuring out how headers on google docs work and I'm so unbelievably happy. They're so much fun and I love organizing everything.
ORGANIZATION!!! [cyrus pic]

But now that this reveal is out in the open, there are still bigger issues at hand including just how long Rhodey has been a Skrull?! That revelation will have to wait, as viewers come to “understand exactly how long he’s been a Skrull,” Feige adds. “We like the idea of fans going back and watching some of the other appearances of Rhodey and realizing that that wasn't him.”
I dare Feige to come out and say 'Rhodey during Tony's death scene? A Skrull actually.'
He doesn't have the bOSTON BALLS--

i love when it seems like a small world sometimes.
the person who posted that win7 ms paint download post reblogged a few posts from an artist i recognized from the ttcc tag here, who was actually a past bugsnax fan because i recognized their art style from when i was a fan. i follow a warrior cats semi-parody comic on deviantart and i ended up finding the artist's artfight page because a person i was attacking was followed by them, and that same artist had a part on a warrior cats map that one of my school friends also had a part in. i realized that i had been listening to and replaying a different wc map that a bomberman fan here was actually in. after a new person had followed me, i realized that one of my mutuals had just reblogged something from that same person, which could mean we were literally one person divorced from each other before. i found a wc pmv in my recommended and was wondering why the artstyle was so familiar to me before realizing it was an artist in the wordgirl tag who i used to follow.
every day i realize i am more connected to people than i think i am.

"Boil water to turn fan" as if multistage steam turbine generators are not one of the sexiest kinds of machines every made
Tumblr media
Tumblr media
nuclear power is impressive until you get up to why. "we use the most precisely engineered machinery ever created to split atoms to release energy" oh yeah how come? "boil water to turn a fan" get the fuck out
#its genuinely crazy the math and engineering that go into making these absolutely massive steam turbines#its an incredible balancing act to optimize between the interconnected variables of pressure velocity and temperature in order#to extract as much energy as possible from the steam as it moves through the system#especially like. those generators need to maintain a very precise rotational speed in order to prevent the coupled generator#from going out of phase with the power grid#(3000 RPM for 50 Hz grids and 3600 RPM for 60 Hz grids)#like the reactor part sounds like a lot of engineering work (and it is!) but like. the turbine is fucking incredibly impressive too#each one of those turbine stages needs to have very specifically shaped blades in order to control steam pressure drop and steam velocity#and the blades need to be able to physically handle being in a wet (at least for nuclear plants where the steam is pretty wet) high temp#environment and constantly being spun at high rotational speeds for decades at a time.#we had to develop specialized nickel titanium superalloys with tightly controlled crystalline structures in order to build turbines this big#stare into the depths of “wow we really just use steam to spin a big fan that sounds simple” and you encounter#the lifes work of thousands of mathematicians computer engineers material scientists and mechanical engineers#the first device we could call a steam turbine was made as a toy in tthe first century ancient greece and egypt#the first steam turbine with a practical use was described in 1551 in Ottoman Egypt. it was used to turn a spit of meat over a fire.#the first modern multistage impluse steam turbine was made in 1884 and revolutionized electricity generation and marine propulsion#in the 141 years since there have been more improvements than one could even list#from major design changes credited to great men to miniscule efficiencies and optimizations gained from tweaking the composition of an alloy#idk. i think its beautiful to think about the web of human knowledge woven collectively by thousands of hands across history#could you imagine what the ancient greek engineers who first put together the prototype for an aeolipile would think to see what we have#made now. could they even recognize our designs as belonging to the same category of object as their little toy#anyway#appreciate the humble steam turbine with the same eye you give to the reactor core#mine#just my thoughts
