my friend just told me that there's a secret second dashboard that solely contains posts from people you've turned on post notifications for, and when i click the link in the messages it opens it within the tumblr app, so the tumblr app also has a secret second dashboard for post notification blogs, and the only way to access it is to open the link for it within the app.

i literally love tumblr

and you know what whilst we're on the subject of speculative evolution ill throw my hat in the ring: so what we know about zoom so far is that the climate is unpredictable* (given that you can track the effulgent biangle, nef and nox are ongoing and whilst they are moving vim and vex are fixed points that one could measure from, it stand to reason that there is at least some method to this madness - however the method may be just as crazy so we don't know) so any species that could survive and thrive in this world must be able to survive under incredibly changeable settings.

So how would they do this?

I imagine there are a few different mechanisms:

Firstly I picture just a lot of generalist species, meaning species that simply can survive in a wide range of scenarios - they don't require super specific food, they're alright with a wide range of temperatures, so even when the environment is changing rapidly, they can adapt quite fast.

Secondly, I think there would be a lot of migratory species - species that can travel as the climate changes so that they can stick with the environment that is suitable for them.

Thirdly, I'd like to imagine there's a fair amount of symbiosis. While symbiotic relationships (mutually beneficial relationships between two or more species that allow both/all species to thrive) can be delicate, I'd think that on the flipside I feel that having multiple species working together to survive could potentially bolster survivability through change. Idk man tell me about zood lichens it's gotta be great.

And there would have to be adaptations that allow species to "keep up" with the changing environment and that's when things get FUN. Imagine skin cells that can change colour to absorb more/less sunlight. Super active metabolic system to allow for surviving rapid change. Highly receptive sensory organs that allow animals to "predict" when change is coming so that they can prepare. Like the possibilities are endless. I'm sat. Someone talk to me about this.

speculative evolution on d20 lets fucking goooooooo

Honestly feeling very seen by the latest d20 episode because the SECOND the alien language came out my brain went "Oooh what if it's a cypher? Brennan hold it up to the camera I wanna see if it's a cypher!"

my dream as a fanfic writer is to write a story which people want to talk to me about and send asks about afterwards and discuss things the characters did and the symbolism and meanings behind certain lines and I'll be all "hehe thanks" but irl I'll be in literal tears because I wrote something that means something to someone

Okay, they can't be using the phrase "gentlemen's fisting" this much if Maxwell's straight, surely?

The rest of them bullying Lou's character when he literally cannot defend himself because he hasn't been introduced yet is killing me 😂

Love the reveal that Ele showed her full ass to the others while completely sober, purely as a commitment to the bit

WIP Wednesday

I don't normally do things like that, but I was tagged by @lovelyladzzzz and, for once, I actually noticed this before the end of Wednesday! So hey, why not?

Here's a snippet from the next chapter of my TMA Time Travel AU (Warning, mild spoilers ig):

The Archivist's smile dropped entirely. Its endless eyes were harsh. “Your partner is lost to us” it said again “He works against us even now. Jonah Magnus falls by his hand” “I'm fairly sure he fell by mine” said Jon “Or don't you recall that bit?”

There was no air here, and yet it grew cold. The Archivist strode toward him. As it did it grew, until it towered directly overhead. “So you would truly abandon our great work?” its voice echoed like a god’s “You would follow him into this folly?” “I would follow him anywhere” he answered simply

The Archivist turned away. Waves of rage and betrayal rolled into him, and a shame grew inside him so heavy his legs threatened to give out. But he held firm

The Archivist sighed. “A pity. You held such promise” it started to walk away “It is fortunate that there is another. So eager to watch, to learn, to serve. He is feeding us even as we speak. He shall make a fine Pupil, in time” “What?” Jon took a step toward him “Who?” The Archivist turned. Its lip curled upwards. “Isn't it obvious?”

“It's you”

I don't really have anyone I can think to tag, but hey, if you're someone who have bad memory like me, here's a reminder that it's Wednesday haha!

Wait, did we ever find out what the "Sam looking at his hands every intro" bit was about last season?

OK new game. Use this website to see how common your first name is, and then put that number in the tags.
