“I need coin, peace, and quiet”

Geralt, babe, i’m sorry to be the one to tell you this but intentionally driving your horse at 2mph so the personification of unhinged talking chaos can keep up with you doesn’t vibe well with 2/3 of that life aspiration

I don't have the words for this but. Art and science are always hand in hand.

The perfectionism of artists has them researching stuff in a way that only scientists can compare. Some artists become experts in biology or anatomy. Other special interests have them going down rabbit holes to make them better at their art.

Disney animators said "we are perfecting the code for this snow if it kills us" and researched and invented code until it acted like real snow in Frozen and snow scientists were like hey. Did we just fucking solve the Dyatlov Pass mystery. And the animators answered no. We made snow. YOU applied the knowledge and did the experiments to solve what could have happened at Dyatlov Pass.

And it was a team effort because of course it was. You can't have art without science. And you can't have science without art.

So, guess who's finally doing something with his YouTube channel?

THIS GUY!

That's right, YOU can watch ME yap about a core tenet of exobiology RIGHT NOW!

It's my first shot at editing/producing anything like this, and I'll probably look back and cringe someday- but no matter!

Enjoy~!

Part of an educational project I collaborated on with Tyler Rhodes; children used evolutionary principles to design their own life-forms, and I then painted a selection of them :)

anyway sound off. at what stage do ppl think Han figured out the Force was real. the boring answer is after seeing Obi-wan vanish but i think he could rationalise that away as his eyes playing tricks on him. what do we think.

tired: mermaids are all women

wired: much like elves, merfolk are mistaken by sailors for being all women because they have long hair and are very pretty

the season finale left me traumatised, girls need to make peace

the one person in the galaxy Leia hasn't met before Luke is Din, clearly. I assume this is part of why Luke is dating Din: because it's the one person he's confident wasn't crushing on his sister first.

AND THAT'S WHY DINLUKE IS SUCH A GREAT DYNAMIC din is so uninvolved in everything he hasn't even HEARD of leia, let alone met her. it's literally just:

Ravi: What do you call a fish with no eyes?

Buck: Astyanax mexicanus.

Ravi: ...

Buck: Also known as the Mexican blind cavefish.

Ravi: Nope, you call it a fsh.

The best fics are the ones that recognize that although Luke Skywalker may APPEAR on the outside to be a normal friendly twink who happens to have cool powers, especially when contrasted with such ship partners as Boba or Din or even Han, he is arguably the scariest person alive in the galaxy around the prequel era. AND, crucially, he is also a fundamentally weird guy. This man was homeschooled on a rural farm his entire life and then apprenticed to a swamp gremlin who showed him how to tap into the cosmic power of the universe. He blew up the death star age 19, killing approx 2 million-ish Imperials. He is a vortex of Force power that can communicate with the ghosts of dead Jedi. He’s staring into the distance and mumbling to himself and doing Yoda aphorisms and casually pulling out the “yeah I could crush that guy into a paste with my mind (:” and nobody around him knows what to do with that. I think he is a character who has very little frame of reference for how a Jedi or a person in general is supposed to act and there is some thing about him that is by necessity really fucking weird and a little scary but he’s so nice that it can throw you off the scent a little bit.
