Random fantasy/worldbuilding thing:

Everyone from a different culture seems strangely poetic and profoundly deep in their observations, but only because they speak whatever the common tongue is as a second language, and whatever they are saying is actually mostly just clumsily translated common sayings/figures of speech that flow much better in their own tongue, and make perfect sense to the people who understand the cultural context.

Someone who comes from a place where geodes are common will describe another person: "He is like a stone that seems to hold a treasure inside of it - you learn to know such stones by their shape and their weight - but once you split it open, there is no quartz, no amethyst, no sparkling and brilliant crystal you expected. Just solid rock, through and through. He is like one of those rocks." Which vaguely makes sense, but they're clearly frustrated about not being quite able to express what they're trying to say.

The thing is, in their own first language, there's a specific word for this kind of rock - one that outwardly seems to be a geode but it isn't one after all. This word is also commonly used as an insult, to describe a person who is charismatic, convincing and outwardly seems brilliantly smart, but is actually dumb as shit.

Nah, you’re thinking of a cucumber. Isn’t tumblr a type of party where you hang out with friends but don’t actually sleep like you would expect people to?

Hello good to see you on this not-tumblr on this fine timezone.

isn't tumblr a type of food

My favorite characters are Kaeya, Childe, and Wanderer/Scaramouche! (Sadly I still only have Kaeya, I missed both of Wanderer’s banners due to a 3 month hiatus caused by not having enough space for the game).

If I weren’t currently saving for Wanderer I would’ve pulled for Navia, I also think her design is really cool! (What team(s) do you normally use?)

(I nearly forgot to switch back to my main blog instead of my Wanderer/Scaramouche specific blog before I hit reblog XD)

What’s your favorite Genshin characters?

(Sorry I’m coming out of nowhere, your intro post popped up in my feed and I saw that you also like Genshin)

dont worry i love talking about my interests 💖 my favourite characters are baizhu and quite obviously navia !!! they both have wonderful designs and are perfect in battle (most of the time at least) thank you for the question !!! u can tell me yours if youd like 🤍

This

Sometimes I wander onto blogs of fandoms I'm not in just to explore. I like looking at the fanart and the dissertations and the fics and wondering what goes on in canon

Seeing how much I can figure out

Or I'll jump into a new fandom tag on ao3 and get the full weight of foreshadowing without the dramatic irony because I know NONE OF THESE PEOPLE

NONE OF THESE EVENTS

Your dramatic-irony-foreshadowing clues don't work on me!!

it's incredibly fun, 10/10 do recommend

I think it’s incredibly fucked how capitalism discourages learning for learning’s sake. People will have interests they’ve spent years researching then say it’s “useless knowledge” bc it didn’t go towards a college degree and isn’t part of their job. Learning is never useless! Your brain is growing and developing throughout your whole life! People would never have epiphanies or sudden lightening strikes of creativity if they weren’t learning new things! That goes double for topics like science, politics, and history, which inform your understanding of the world you live in!

Boop Breakdown

Well, you did it. You booped. You booped all over your dashboard with reckless abandon, your finger gnashing away at the boop button, much like a lovely raccoon discovering a glorious half-eaten baked potato. A treasure was presented, and you knew you deserved it. You deserved to boop. Collectively, you booped 142,566,897 times. To repeat: one hundred forty-two million five hundred sixty-six thousand eight hundred ninety-seven boops were had on tumblr dot com the website and the app.

Specifically: 

Normal boops: 119,204,929

Self boops: 12,645,652

Cat boops: 7,925,241

Super boops: 2,095,231

Mischievous, aka evil boops: 695,844

One particularly boopable Tumblr was booped a total of 874,212 times. To be so rich in boops is a blessing. The Tumblr that gave the most boops found it in their heart to bestow 127,073 boops upon those they found worthy. 

Over 500,000 Tumblrs were booped and booped back in return. And for what? What would drive so many to boop? Does Tumblr yearn for the boop mines? Well, yes. And also the guts, the glory, the prestige, and, of course, the badges. Oh, how you worked for those badges:

Booper participants: 229,881

Booper enthusiasts:  85,548

Booper supers:  67,571

Hold your heads high, Tumblr. You booped until you couldn’t boop anymore. You created incredible fanart, invented a whole new genre of -sonas, and even created your own premium, high-end awards. It was noble, it was boop. We hope you boop yourself, and boop for boop. Boop, boop boop? Boop, boop. Boop boop boop, boop boop; Boop! Boop! 

Boop,

Tumblr

One time I brought one of my rocks with me on a plane to touch to calm me down during the flight, but it fell out of my pocket on my way back to the bathroom and then as soon as i realized this they actually announced “did anyone lose…… . A rock” over the loudspeaker system.

When I went up to claim it the plane man, clearly unable to throw off the shackles of his training in the procedure of asking for people’s full names and birthdates when they come to claim wallets, said “wait no, first tell me what color it is so I know it’s really yours”

He seemed to realize this was stupid directly after saying it and kind of smiled like to make it a joke but the joke was on him bc I Described the fucking rock to him for like 30 solid seconds

…anyway. that was an interaction I had once

[dragontammerz]

I'm not going to explain any of the thought behind it yet, just want your answer on what you want to lose first. I'll post a new poll without the loser until only One Remains.

(note: eliminate means that humans don't include them in our diets, not that we suddenly pluck it from existence)

And do the sharing thing please. This isn't scientific or anything close to it, just my own curiosity, but still, I want to know what we keep the longest, bc I have a guess.

[dragontammerz]

I made an art/anatomy tutorial about birds! I hope people will find it helpful!
