best kinds of characters either:

is/has been an active suicide risk

doesn’t or cannot consider suicide a real option and so is left with an inarticulable feeling of circling the drain

#my cat's about this same size (he can also reach doorknobs and the countertop) and while petting him like this #would overwhelm him (normal brushing is very hit or miss) he LOVES being squeezed #I can lock my arm around him in bed like a child sleeping with a stuffed animal and he's having the time of his life

#fujita himself would be a pretty good roomate but given everyone else in his life the apartment would become a crater within the first week #I could see him leaving like food splatters in the microwave or something but hes 18 & at least 2 of his friends have been #ripped apart in front of him I'd be doing a lot worse

having the Aviation Accident Investigations Autism™️ has actually done wonders for the way I process and respond to my own fuck-ups

json-derulo

And I don't just mean "oh, my little work mistake is actually nothing compared to a fiery crash that kills people," either. The reason commercial flight is so many orders of magnitude safer than any other form of transportation is because after every accident and incident, an independent regulatory body investigated it with the express goal of figuring out exactly what happened, why, and how to prevent the same thing from ever happening again—not to root out which person deserved the blame or the liability.

It's a simple, shockingly effective idea. It's also worlds away from how most people approach their own mistakes and the mistakes of others.

json-derulo

Because it’s never just one person’s fault. And even when it is, it still isn’t.

The sharpest, best-trained pilots make worse decisions when they're tired or sick or stressed out, so there's two of them. The most dedicated and experienced air traffic controllers garble an instruction over the radio sometimes, so pilots are trained to always repeat clearances back to catch misunderstandings quickly. The best and brightest maintenance mechanic still overlooks a screw or misconnects a wire once or twice in her career, so aircraft systems are built with two or three or four layers of redundancy, and pilots are exhaustively trained to deal with failures safely.

Everyone eventually has a bad day. Every component breaks down. Every computer gets a bad a Windows update and spirals into a reboot doom loop. If it’s possible for one person’s mistake to domino into a mushroom cloud of a fuckup, then that task is too critical to be one person's sole responsibility. The accident sequence starts with the design of the system—so how do you improve the system to keep it from happening again?

oh yeah. The “modern commercial aviation is the safest form of transport” thing only applies to planes, btw. A helicopter is a beautiful metal horse that wants to break its legs and die so so so badly

[recommending something i sincerely love] ok so the thing about it is it kinda sucks

hey everyone, just curious:

what is everyone's criteria for blocking people?

#I once spent 2 hours going through the comments on that 'blue jays aren't actually blue' post blocking everyone being overly obtuse #I'm here for the love of the game #I'd probably block a lot less ppl while browsing fandom tags if there was another way to mute blogs (besides filtering their url)#I've kicked a loooot of rp/ask/gifmakers/x reader fic blogs to the curb just bc they spam to hell and back

what-even-is-thiss

I’ve started listening to the book project Hail Mary and frankly there’s no room in the plot of this book for that man everyone seems to be shipping Grace with so I decided to look it up and apparently instead of letting a character not have a romantic interest y’all have yoinked a character out of some kind of Markiplier project

This is the goddamned Jack Frost and Elsa situation all over again

#I just queued this for both when I turn 29 & the day BEFORE I turn 30 [I'm 23. if I still have this account* I'm gonna be v disappointed]#* lets keep the bar low: not deleting tumblr altogether but at least throwing one tabula rasa in there

worst part of being an adult is how often youre forced to nag. you Have to be annoying or youre never getting anything done. which is unfortunate considering how common it is to teach kids to never nag and be annoying ever

woodwool

a professional i am paying money doesnt show up w zero communication and IM the one who has to feel guilty for having to call him and ask whats going on. because when i was a little kid i would get yelled at for nagging. joke world
