Me checking my emails this morning (colorized)

Please more people need to understand that Victor Frankenstein was by far not the scientific genius modern media makes him out to be

I wish adaptations kept Victor Frankenstein's actual age. I want the modern audience to see this goth kid who looks like he has to ask older people to buy him Monster, and realize, oh, oh, THAT'S why he's not the best father figure. Like Victor Frankenstein is a mad science version of "16 and pregnant" and I want more stuff on that.

Actually they pose very little hassle if you are willing to make up for a decent percentage of all glass breakage in the lab.

5 ml volumetric flasks that are only cute if you don't actually have to work with them and the famous Tollens' test ✨

Somehow people assume that studying chemistry would sensitise you to the dangers different chemicals pose and how to avoid them. That is a lie. Four years in and all I know is I haven’t died yet and unless in immediately burns my skin I am very much not as scared of any substance as I should be.

Jonathan Harker: Those people are muttering such unfamiliar words to each other, while crossing themselves as my coach passes them by. Let me check my little dictionary to see what they mea- Jesus Christ

Amal El-Mohtar and Max Gladstone wrote a book the way Rasputina writes music. I will not elaborate.

I read this is how you lose the time war.

I typically don’t like books about time travel.

I typically don’t read romances.

This 200 page book took me seven months to read and in doing so I dragged it all the way from the south of Africa to northern Europe and back home.

And now that I finished it I fear it will forever be stuck in my head. It was simply amazing. I will miss the little blue thing always accompanying me in my backpack. No other book will ever reach this level of strange. What a ride.

A common misconception about This is How You Lose the Time War is that Red and Blue are augmented functionally immortal godlike super humans created with advanced dystopian future technologies- they are actually just normal lesbians; dykes can just do that

can i just say i really love this interacion between domi and vanitas

they just both care about noe so much and want to keep him safe but also cleary wanted to bitch about his bs for a while

I love my monday morning environmental chemistry/toxicology lecture, because I get to start every week with three hours of “ah yes, the environment is doing bad, and guess what it’s getting worse”

Not the Vanitas no Carte fanart being like the Vanitas art movement. We as a fandom really know it's all going to end, don't we?

Ah Mochijun, the things you do to your readers. Look around, you've given us awareness of death and memento mori.

Totally normal things to go on about as you read manga and draw the blorbos, as one does.

You’d never find your way out of a regional museum village

you truly can't take me anywhere because there is no telling what thing will excitedly point to/run towards while going "look!!!!! thing!!!!!" the entire time.

An icomplete list, however would be:

old tractors

old bee hives

pigs

reconstruction of a very small house for unfortunate workers in the 19th century

info boxes

historic shoes

closet beds

I may also

start jumping over big stones I find

talk too much

Every writer has two sides:

"I love my characters, they are my children and will protect them with my life"

"I wanna make them suffer so fucking much"

the worst part about getting the hang of crocheting is that now I can start a circle and immediately be hit with blank page syndrome ™️. There are so many things I could do with this circle, so many possibilities, I better put it down immediately.

Brewing mere potions was beneath him it seems

Albedo, the chief alchemist of the knights of favonius, being completely MIA during the literal alchemy event but a key player in the cat event is pure icon behaviour and i will take no notes.

As a chemistry student with a side gig as an artist I’m basically obligated to like this guy, besides my obvious fable for characters that are not quite human but still try their best. Also I think that he is way too chill a character considering just how whacky his lore gets, love that for him.

Anyways, you know it’s time to study for exams when I somehow manage to spend seventeen hours on a single drawing.

maybe if i think really hard about video game character everything will be okay
