My mom asked me if Mrs Flood was the Master. I laughed first, but then I remember this is Doctor Who and RTD is writing so...
Anyway, if Mrs Flood is really the Master I'll bake my mom a TRADIS shaped cake XD.

At the bus stop one time there was a gaggle of preschoolers waiting to catch the bus for a field trip day, and someone walked past with a couple of friendly little dogs, to great general delight.
But after a little bit, the dogs were getting overwhelmed, and the preschoolers were gently coaxed to back off so the person with the dogs could continue on. Specifically, one of the preschool teachers said, "Sometimes, when you're small, being surrounded by big people can be a bit scary and overwhelming. Even if they are friendly."
This was recieved as great wisdom: after all, the preschoolers were also small, and understood how scary and overwhelming big people could be! And the dogs were indeed even smaller than the preschoolers, so it made sense.
What was funny and charming was that, upon absorbing and reflecting on this wisdom, they all felt the need to tell it to one another. In tones of great insight, they turned to one another and said, "Did you know? Sometimes when you are small, being surrounded by big people can be scary and overwhelming! Even if they are friendly!" Back and forth, without any particular concern that they were all saying the same thing. Have reached comprehension of an insight, it must be shared!
I must say that this behavior is less charming in tumblr users than in preschoolers. Not least because tumblr users, having gained a little analytical skill to misuse, insist on Summarizing and Generalizing and Unifying the insights they repeat, quickly turning any interesting new information into formulaic dogmatic mush.
#i made the mistake of looking in the notes of the beach sand post i reblogged to see if anyone else had interesting comments#And the rate at which it went from like#1) person states with moderate confidence an opinion based on their personal observations#2) multiple people reply with “wow thats so insightful!” (aka it aligns with my preconceived notions of how things work)#3) someone else adds additional personal observations which are not really relevant but which can be absorbed into the narrative#4) people start outright stating the underlying belief on which this bias is constructed as if it were a fresh insight#5) general derisive attitude towards people who haven't seen the Obviously Correct solution to this complex real world problem yet#It's very.......#It's not like it's a high stakes post but it's such a microcosm of the whole dogmatic phenomenon#Also this js a more specific gripe to My Field or w/e#But the degree to which people react to the problems caused by the whole “Control of Nature” era of engineering#with this equally reductive “Nature will Fix Everything” type of attitude#Is sooooo frustrating.#Yes a great many of our current problems could have been avoided if we had not made massive changes to ecosystem processes on the assumptio#That they were simple and we understood them. And that they would respond in predictable ways.#the simplicity in retrospect of “wow we Should Not have done that” does not mean that they are simple to undo!#You can't go back in time. You can't turn back the clock on chaotic processes#Which is. Almost every process ever.#Restoration is hard! Returning to previous regimes of sediment or flooding or fire is tricky and full of foibles!#Moving towards a future which doesn't suck as much even if the past cant be recreated is also uncertain and difficult!#It's frustrating to see people act all high and mighty about how they Respect Nature unlike whoever is making all these decisions#When their understanding of the natural processes in question is AS simplistic as the people who caused the whole mess back in 1910 or w/e#Like I'm not saying there's not bad interests standing in the way of functional restoration on all levels#That's very much a fight to be fought.#But looking at that fight-in-process and saying “wow none of you Respect Nature like me uwu let nature fix it”#Is.#Ugh.

you literally posted about how dany would 'flirt' with jon despite him being taken 😟
"dany completely ignores her while on dragonstone and tries to subtly flirt with jon..." in your tags and constantly flooding the jon snow tag with that
or constantly talking about 'Dany's bs'. You're so weird towards Dany the second your oc is involved, and dont use that excuse of you not shipping jonerys because you ONLY hate DANY whenever Jon is in the vicinity.

i am at my limit
[ID: two pictures of the default tumblr profile picture, the square with two shades of orange and one blue side on a green background. on the first picture the square's eyes are closed and the caption says "users complaining about spam bots. tumblr: i sleep". the second square has open eyes and the caption says "not fixing anything, changing site lay out, tumblr live. tumblr: real shit". it's a version of the same meme but with tumblr icons that bots often have. END ID]

Fuck it, this fic is definitely getting footnotes and a works cited. It makes no sense for the cast to be technocratic, but I’ve already done too much research to not shut up about how things could work.

"I want you to be sympathetic to the fact that this ancient alien race (extinct known assholes) nearly wiped out this other species."
"Oh, okay. Do they resemble golden retrievers puppies or something cute and friendly? Like Baby Yoda?"
"No, humanoid mollusc things with an arrogant attitude. They are immune to the horrifying but only cure for the horrible parasite-disease."
"Oh. That's...like can we sit down and talk or...? Like we got to be friends with the Elites after we sorted out some misunderstandings so...
"No."
"...why?"
"...because."

In case anyone wanted some sources! also tho, heads up that this doesn't work in all climates and is most specifically a way to fight soil degradation and desertification
I am once again thinking about digging holes
Tumblr media
It's so fucked up that digging a bunch of holes works so well at reversing desertification
Tumblr media
I hate that so much discourse into fighting climate change is talking about bioenginerring a special kind of seaweed that removes microplastics or whatever other venture-capital-viable startup idea when we have known for forever about shit like digging crescent shaped holes to catch rainwater and turning barren land hospitable
