Me (A time traveler visiting 20-year old Mozart): OK, so, this is called an electric guitar, basically instead of the body functioning as a resonance chamber, it produces music by harnessing the power of lightning. Do you have any other questions?

Mozart (Currently shredding Violin Concerto No. 1 on the guitar, having figured it out within 30 seconds): What other music can be made from harnessed lightning?

Me (Loading up some heavy dubstep): Oh, we're just getting started.

Eric R. Bittle

Ok so I’m here to talk about how ridiculously talented Bitty is on ice because the fandom forgets sometimes.

•Bitty switched from figure skates to hockey skates. This is SUPER HARD TO DO. (I asked a friend who figure skates competitively about how skating with hockey skates is different. She immediately said that it was extremely hard.)

•Bitty can do twirls in hockey skates. Again VERY HARD due to hockey skates not having a pick.

•Was the captain of his Junior hockey team for two years. He was made captain after TWO YEARS of playing hockey.

•Got an assist in his first College hockey game

•Scored the winning goal in his third game on a College team(also the only goal of that game)

•After that game he was switched from third line to first line.

•Was awarded the John Carlisle award at the end of his freshmen year(the award is given to the player who’s enthusiasm and dedication best shows team spirit)

•Struggled with the fear of getting checked but woke up at 4A.M. so he could get over this fear and stay on the team (yes he grumbles about it a fair bit but he also acknowledges that it helps him)

•He balances being on a varsity team and school fairly well and takes care of his teammates too.

•He does all of this before he’s 20.

In conclusion Eric Bittle is more than just a talented gay baker, he is a strong person who is extremely talented on ice. Thank you for your time.

The other day, audiaphilios in the chat was talking about wanting fic of Coaches Hall and Murray, and I got to thinking about this and it’s related:

Eric Bittle is attending Samwell on a hockey scholarship. The team is spending money to have Bittle on board.

He got this scholarship based on a tape which was half ice dancing.

And, in case you missed it: in Bitty’s first two years of hockey, Samwell came out of nowhere to make the NCAA playoffs twice in a row.

Like, you add all this stuff up, and … well, I think what you’re looking at is a tiny school - the kind of school that doesn’t pay its coaches a tremendous amount of money, the kind of school that can’t count on enormous alumni/ae funding to pay for scholarships - which has found itself a pair of coaches who are doing exactly what a school in that position needs to do: start with players that their competition cannot even imagine playing hockey, and train them into the best hockey players the NCAA has ever seen.

Coaches Murray and Hall didn’t pick Bittle’s name out of a hat. They didn’t recruit him for his pecan pies. They saw an incredible natural athlete with a lot of potential to be an asset to their team. And that’s what he is.

[jacksbits]

#i also think #they recruited him #because of his similarity to kent parson #small fast strategic forwards #they knew jack needed someone who wasn’t going to try to be the star #who focused more on the collaborative aspects of the game #and was as thrilled with an assist as a goal #they recruited bitty f o r  j a c k (via @des-zimbits)

OH MY GOD.

undiagnosed autistic people will be like "I don't get upset when my routine changes though!!" and it's because they've built a set of if-then loops in their head to pick from one of 6 different strict routines and they do get incredibly upset when they're unable to keep to any of the 6 scripts.

This is called a fault tree. You will always know how to act if your fault tree captures all possible scenarios. In NASA Mission Control during mission critical events like landings there are huge binders with fault tree protocols, kind of like choose your own adventure books except you’re not the one making the choices, the universe is making them for you and you’re just trying to keep up.

The engineers who develop fault trees, I am told, often imagine new ways for their precious spacecraft to die (new branches on the fault trees) either while in the shower or lying awake at 3am, because human

Was just thinking about this the other day. Yeah I have a favorite seat on the bus (middle of the bus, near the back doors, slightly elevated, facing forward), but I don’t get upset if someone is already sitting there, I just pick one of my other favorite spots. Then I realized that most people probably don’t have a favorite bus seat, let alone a series of backup favorites.

the real challenge of adulthood that no one tells you about in advance is how many goddamn pieces of paper you have to keep up with that are never important until they are suddenly VERY important

[homunculus-argument]

Trying to keep myself from going "oh my god you people don' t know anything" by reminding myself that there are surely things that you don't just know, but consider such common knowledge that it wouldn't occur to you at all to consider that I wouldn't know that. I'd ask y'all to share some, but how the fuck would you know what is and isn't common knowledge to anyone else.

once in a theatre class i was reading a midsummer nights dream with another student and towards the end of the play there’s like a eunuch? she asked what that was and i had a moment of complete bafflement that someone would have never encountered the term before. then i remembered that the sheer amount of fantasy books id consumed in my life was probably what gave me that knowledge
