The difference between a good photograph and a National Geographic photograph is often just a slight shift in perspective. Sometimes a ladder is really inexpensive tool (less so in my case, since I had to fly it to the remote Indian Ocean atoll of Aldabra) to obtain a different point of view. This proved to be the case on assignment for @natgeo in Seychelles a few years ago, when the ladder helped me create the opening image for this story. I have posted that particular photograph before, but I will post it again tomorrow for reference. Aldabra has the highest concentration of blacktip reef sharks I have ever experienced. The sheer abundance of sharks there is completely out of this world. At low tide they congregate in a small lagoon on a reef flat where a brisk current bathes them in cooler well oxygenated water. They avoid the deeper water off the reef edge where bigger sharks may prey on them. Time lapse video by my assistant and talented videographer @ottowhitehead

I’m not sure which Olympic accidental main character I love more - Turkish Cat Dad Hit Man, Clark Kent Pommel Horse Guy, or today’s newest contender French Pole Vaulter Thwarted By His Big Dick.

Nothing can possibly express my relief and vindication when i came to college and took a geology class.

I was homeschooled - in various decreasing grades of intensity, while my peers, also homeschooled, seemed to be going increasingly opposite of me in fervor and religiousity. (And conspiracy).

I remember being one of those homeschoolers, though. My mom took me and my three siblings to meet up with her friend (3 kids, abusive husband she couldn't leave because of her oppressive religion) to the homeschool convention in Nashville.

Us girls wore long denim skirts, the boys had on button downs and kakis. We looked like Michael Pearl's own personal cult following/harem.

we went to hear Ken Ham (founder of the Christian apologetics organization that runs the Ark exhibit and creation museum) speak about catastrophism and the young earth theory.

He was quite a convincing, charismatic, and captivating speaker. It was like sticking my toes in cult infested waters. He talked about how the billions of dead things buried in the ocean were proof of a massive flood, and about how the fossils found in land locked places like Utah and Montana were proof of a flood. He even got the audience involved: he said "millions, billions of years ago..." The audience yelled back "FICTION." He had a handful of catchphrases: "layer upon layer upon layer" and "were you there?"

He even had handouts, an audio drama called Jonathan Park about scientific proof of creationism aimed at children ages 7 and up , books, videos.

and it was fun- we all had fun, we repeated his little catch phrases for YEARS after. Later at the homeschool co-op we began attending, the Christian homeschool science curriculum backed him up, even cited him.

Even when i began to think for myself about what i had been learning my entire life, creationism had been so well ingrained in me that i could barely wrap my mind around the possiblity of anything else.

A massive chunk of the population is being taught mythology as of it is fact, as if it ascends all science and research and evidence.

And like Torbin needs to stay alive cuz he was a mind rape victim who suffered for 16 years and killed himself when he needed compassion and help and honesty that’s a horrible message to send

The Acolyte sucked so I’m going to rewrite it

That’s right, I’m gonna fix that steaming pile of banthashit. WHO’S WITH ME?!

IF THEY WONT GIVE THE CHARACTERS DEPTH AND NUANCE, I WILL. I WILL MAKE IT BETTER

DISNEY SHOULD HIRE ME

Okay spoilers under the cut for my plans

so sad because aesthetically, the show was breathtaking and amazing but great visuals can’t save writing that is more over the place than my first attempt at writing my novel which let me tell you, WAS ALSO TERRIBLE.

and yes, I am extremely fucking salty and I can’t wait for the Ahsoka series to be back so I finally get fun Star Wars and not rip my hair out have a bpd episode Star Wars.

We DON’T kill Sol off

We give Sol more depth and nuance because my man deserves it

Manny’s character also get’s more depth! Fuck it, a backstory too!

Sol will also have issues with the dark side and struggles to keep stable in the light side

we flesh out Osha and Mae’s past a bit.

I’m thinking we actually give Manny’s character a reason he’s this way other than “nobody understands me boohoo” because bub, nobody understands me either but I’m not gonna become a monster JUST because of that

anyways this episode made me so fucking upset that I shit you not it triggered my bpd and I split and was an asshole to my family when watching it. Now my mom is mad at me. Heck, I really should get a BPD diagnosis. Anyways I then sobbed in the bathroom because Sol was my favorite character. Sure,, losing Jecki and Yord sucked but not as sucky as Sol! I MEAN HE IS WHY I STUCK AROUND ON THE SERIES COME ON. Actually sobbed.
