I saw that "this screencap is so memeable" post circulating without the additions so I thought I'd make a separate post to annoy more people

[Image description: Three-part edit of manga panels from Nabari no Ou, with text edited onto them; each image is as follows:

1. Thobari from the ten years ago flashback, sat on the ground drenched in rain, and holding a sleeping Miharu in his lap. He's looking up, and the background depicts bright light shining down on the trees surrounding him. Edited onto this image is an unticked checkbox with text that reads, "remember that you can't save everyone."

2. A continuation of the previous image. Thobari looks down at Miharu, which is then followed by a panel depicting Engetsurin. The next panel shows Thobari again, with his face a bit shadowed as he shifts into a fierce, determined expression.

3. A different scene featuring 15-year-old Thobari. He's shown clipping Engetsurin onto his ear. The next panel is a close-up on him, now wearing Engetsurin, and looking ahead with a determined expression. Edited onto this image is a ticked checkbox with text that reads, "Remember that you have to try." End description]

“You erased Dad!”

[raspberryarchives]

piece for school! my writeup for it, and sources, under cut.

The assignment was to make a collage of yourself.

I wanted to mess with themes of science and religion as complimentary processes, not opposites. Here's a poem that inspired this piece that I couldn't figure out how to work in, which is attributed to Brian May in this tumblr post but that I can't find anywhere besides that post.

"When I had a couple of serious bouts of depression in my life the stars were a big factor in pulling me out. People used to say 'what is your spirituality?' and I'd say I don't know, but I found out looking at the stars one night that that's what it was."

bonus for tumblr: the ASL included (which i wanted as a tie in to the catholic hand symbols used in classic iconography) means transgender. obviously being transgender ties very strongly into the link between spirituality and the body and science.

Sources:

conography is from real safety sign iconography, accessed by me through here (they have very clean pngs)

circuits in the background are from here

i said 'explain physics to me like youre in love with me' and after a while of quiet he went 'everything sings'. so i get it now '

'The fact that a sine wave sounds smooth but a sawtooth wave sounds nasally, and a square wave has a certain hollow fuzz to it.'

Astronomers say they have heard the sound of a black hole singing. And what it is singing, and perhaps has been singing for more than two billion years, '

'Let's Try That Again' screenshot is from @screenshotsofdespair

'natura valde simplex est et sibi consona' is a newton quote (according to the internet)

'What is the difference between a cathedral and a physics lab ...' is from annie dillard, teaching a stone to talk

'my battery is low and it's getting dark' is a poetic interpretation of the Mars Opportunity Rover's last data transmission to earth that was in many articles around the time of its death

unit circle is from https://www.mometrix.com/academy/unit-circles-and-standard-position/

moire patterns were made using a concentric circle from https://www.istockphoto.com/vector/circle-round-target-spiral-design-elements-gm1015672460-273317564
