Fighting the urge to write a bunch of 42-Miles x 42-Gwen mini fanfics about little situations they find themselves in until he slowly finds himself falling in love with her cuz I have SO much homework to finish 😭.

Would y'all even read it if I did, be honest

Just a bunch of little stories about him meeting her for the first time, him talking to her, eventually them starting to hang out, him encountering her as the Prowler, etc.

The scenarios in my head are increasing in length and specificity I need to release my mind onto Tumblr for random people to read

thinking about posting on pinterest… hmmm

Hey, it's me again! I had an idea and I wanted to share it with you all. What if we created a website where we could check whether big companies are ethical? We could see if they care about the environment, pay their workers fairly, aren't racist, and all that good stuff. And we could use the power of the internet to make it happen!

Here's how it would work: companies would have big and small priorities to meet, and they would get rated on a scale from no rating (where the company does almost nothing) to gold (where all priorities are met). If a company gets a yellow rating or higher, they would get to put a sticker on their product (think "vegan" label on food), and if they get a gold rating, they would get a medal. It would be a win-win situation because companies would want to get those stickers and medals to show off how ethical they are, and we as consumers would have an easier time choosing companies that align with our values.

But the best part is that this idea could make the world a better place. By holding companies accountable and rewarding them for being ethical, we could create a world where businesses are incentivized to do the right thing. We could encourage companies to prioritize sustainability, treat their workers fairly, and create products that are good for people and the planet. And with volunteers checking the ratings every day, we could prevent companies from manipulating the system to make themselves look better than they really are.

I know it won't be easy, but if we work together, we can make this happen. Imagine a world where companies are competing to be the most ethical, and consumers have the power to make a real difference. It's a beautiful vision, and I believe we can make it a reality.

i think theres this idea in the general public that the "best" fanfic gets turned into real books like 50 shades of grey. but the truth is that the best fanfic can never be published as an actual book because its intricately woven into the canon material so its inseparable even if you change the names

If my mom sees a significant amount of blood she gets lightheaded, and has fainted on some occasions. Once it happened when we were kids, I wasn't there to witness it but I heard the story from my dad. Basically my brothers, around 7 or 8 at the time, were playing outside while my mom was making their lunch, and she accidentally cut her finger. It wasn't anything serious, but it drew a fair bit of blood and she passed out. My dad saw this and rushed over, but he didn't really know what to do so he just sort of started slapping her to wake her up (not recommended, but he had no idea and panicked)

At that exact moment my brothers both came in from playing, and all they saw was our mom unconscious on the floor and our dad slapping her. So, like, without even saying a word to each other they both just INSTANTLY start whaling on him, like, full blown attack mode to defend our mom. Which obviously didn't help the situation, but she did wake up and everything was fine.

Now our dad says that he's actually really glad they attacked him over what they thought was going on, because it means he raised good boys. And I still think that's true, they're very good boys.

if you're about to get top surgery, you may hear a voice in your head telling you to make a joke about getting something off your chest even though it's overplayed. im here to let you know it's your imperative and sacred duty to not only make the joke but to tell it to every person you talk to. and that you are right it would be funny as fuck. this is not sarcastic if you tell enough people one of them will have never heard it before and also it's still funny to every person who has heard it listen to me this is a once in a life time opportunity— [i start getting dragged out by the palace guards] commit to the bit!!! if you don't you'll forever wish you had!! heed my warning or forever suffer the cons— [castle door slams shut behind us]

Photographers all know about polarizing filters. They remove reflections off the surfaces of objects. We use them to see into water or windows that are obscured by those reflections. But anything with an even slightly glossy surface has a layer of reflection on top. So if you have a shiny green plant, it can remove the shiny and reveal a very saturated green underneath. Polarizers also remove a lot of scattered and reflected light from the sky. Which reveals a deep blue color you didn't even know was there.

Here is a photo I took of my circular polarizer.

And the first thing I noticed when walking outside during the eclipse was the color of everything was more saturated, just like in that circle. Apparently, an eclipse significantly reduces polarized light and I got this creepy feeling because I was only ever used to seeing the world like that through the viewfinder of my camera.

The other thing I noticed was my outdoor lights. I leave them on all the time because I never remember to turn them on at night. And usually the sun will render them barely visible during the day. On a very sunny day they almost look like they are off.

But you can clearly see they are shining and even flaring the camera during the eclipse.

Our eyes adjust to lighting changes very well so it was hard to tell how much dimmer things were, but that is a good indication. I took this photo a few minutes ago and you can see how dim the lights appear after the moon has fucked off.

I did a calculation using the exposure settings between these two photos. The non-eclipse photo has 7 f-stops more light. That is 128 times or 12,700% more light.

A partial Pringle eclipse cut the sun's light by 99.2% and somehow our eyes adjusted to make it seem like a normal sunny day (with weird ass saturated colors).

people online talk so much about hating babies and kids but in "the meatspace" people LOVE babies. hang out with a baby and you will see so many people staring at you with big smiles and waving at you and going "that baby is SO cute" and generally being pleasant unprompted. the lady at the vietnamese place just now gave us like three extra soup spoons because my niece loves those spoons but kept dropping them on the floor and the lady kept giving us more with a massive smile on her face. on our walk today a bunch of construction guys waved and grinned at her the whole time we walked by, and when we passed by an elementary school a little girl said "your baby's really sweet!" babies are not balls of irritation and hatred they are beacons of joy and kindness actually and they bring out the best in strangers. whenever im out with her we have multiple positive interactions with strangers who are so happy to see her. or maybe it's just that my baby niece is the cutest most wonderful baby in the world :]

If you want to write a dumb little story with a dumb little plot and ridiculously silly characters. No one's stopping you. Genuinely, no one should be allowed to stop you. Write that dumb story with your whole heart and don't hold back.

I cant decide what's more compelling

post monaco where charles is still high on his victory and jense and mark know exactly how he feels and they're all hot and we all know charles is butter's type and we all know charles competency kink goes hard generally and well he goes hard for them too (sorry that was painfully unfunny)

I feel like there's some compelling potential esp between mark and charles bc technically mark should hate that charles won bc if it wasn't charles it would have been oscar (martian and ferrari sebchal core right there but significantly less angst at least)

but time travel charles!!!!

peak grid slut era butter with charles who lbr is the modern grids pr friendly version of a grid slut (affectionate) and we all know the pros of the time travel old man era (also like if charles happens to appear after a particularly frustrating race for butter (probably because of seb lbr) 👀👀)

I wanna write both tbh. like a lot. but unfortunately it is 11.30pm and I'm supposed to be asleep

post monaco charles in my head would be so shook by these legends congratulating him and acknowledging him even though he just won one of the most renowned races in f1. charles fits perfectly as butter's type bc he doesn't seem as contradictory as seb but he definitely has the same fire that's so attractive to them. yeah the victory boner was for the race but what if it was also bc he was doing so well in front of these people he's always revered? 👀👀

mark and charles are so compelling to me. I have ideas for a post monaco fic with them i just need the time to write it. but esp with him being oscar's manager so he's supposed to be supporting him but he went out of his way to congratulate charles quite significantly. and then with the parallels to martian and sebchal bc they didn't quite manage to be happy for their rival then when they did well but mark's moved on from that and seb's not there anymore so its a very different situation

yes!! time travel charles is so interesting because how would he be in an era that was so much less limiting and so much sluttier? and butter being so perfectly there for him. maybe bonding (ha) over seb issues or a celebration for butter when they're on the podium but charles is not. ohhh there's so much here i love it. or even a bad race for charles and butter show up to console him 👀👀👀
