INSANE!!! BEAUTIFUL AMAZE AMAZE AMAZE
the puppetry in phm is just so fucking good dude. think abt how much improv there was. the dancing/mimicking scene when rocky and grace first met? that was improvised. that means that 5 people were so in sync with each other on this puppet that they were able to mimic ryan gosling in real time with no plan. bro. BRO. ouugghhhhh rocky puppeteers i love u
i like the term "gallows humor" because it always makes me think of someone getting sentenced to death and being like "i have GOT to be the funniest person at my public execution"
The Story of St. Lawrence's death, patron saint of comedians
The prefect was so angry he told Lawrence that he would indeed have his wish to die—but it would be by inches. He had a great gridiron prepared with coals beneath it, and had Lawrence’s body placed on it. After the martyr had suffered the pain for a long time, the legend concludes, he made his famous cheerful remark, “It is well done. Turn me over!”
Always reblog St. Lawrence's execution!
The dark origins of Hoopy
Several days late, but I finally finished my yearly Chell day piece! 🧡🌾
(june 20 is just a headcanon birthday, nothing official!)
things in phm that really tickled me as a marine biologist:
the concept of star-eating microbes causing a crisis and the solution being the introduction of space wolves to space yellowstone to control the space elk population. i love a good trophic cascade
dr ryland grace immediately pitching "turn the spaceship into a giant centrifuge to generate gravity" and then not balancing his actual centrifuge later on
the entire "life is reason" scene really
grace forgetting to open the mystery alien container in a fume hood AND immediately sticking his nose in it. if we did this in chemistry lab we were executed on the spot
academia drama being one of the cornerstones of grace's character
grace switching through every spectrum setting on the microscope to try to see into the astrophages and not being able to (relatable)
also: the astrophage dying and grace going "ohhh it died..." (very relatable)
grace having his not-scientist buddy Carl to give him frank solutions when he's overthinking. yes, often the solution is just to put the box in another box
copious duct tape usage
just sticking a filter into the path of the petrova line to collect astrophage goop
eva going "so it's alive" when grace tells them the astrophage are moving, and him being like "WELL ok that could be for a lot of reasons" in the tone of someone who doesn't even know where to start explaining why that's a hasty assumption
grace referring to the first new astrophage as his and carl's baby multiple times (HIGHLY relatable)
humanity's greatest hope being a teacher. humanity being saved by grace's ability to find novel ways to communicate well with others -- something that made him excellent as an educator, and enabled him to bond with rocky
"Because I said so" straight up isn't as good an answer as you think it is.

hey so uh next year will be a decade of dobonhonkeros. how about that shit huh.
Happy ten year anniversary of this post.

I think I’m literally never gonna be sick of this masterpiece. I think watching it on a loop for eight hours could fix me. Dancing’s what clears my soul. Dancing’s what makes me whole.
I just love that this very video is an accumulation of thousands of years worth of art made by people who have never met each other. The concept of this video was so completely unfathomable to every single artist who made the sculptures and yet they’ve all put something toward the creation of it.
ITS BACK ON MY TIMELINE
this would have got 100k notes as a tumblr post in 2018
t think tumblr is trying to tell me something
According to one of the Portal 2 writers Chell deliberately doesn’t talk because she doesn’t want to give the robots the satisfaction of a response. So I imagine for ChellxGLaDOS instead of any big decelerations of love one day it’s just: Chell: [Enters the Central AI Chamber] Hi. GLaDOS: Hello Chell. Today I-

Hi I'm 1 years old and learning to read through your posts. Cigarette.
very good job using your words! will someone get this toddling bitch a smoke
Drew another scene from my fic because I love them. I've seen a lot of people using text from screenshots lately and I really liked the style so I used it here as well haha
Idk if it happens in the fic but I like to imagine that once they showed up on Erid and they could actually do something about the whole starvation thing Rocky remembered this and came up with the meburger.
How do you sleep at night?
This whole idea of Stratt being riddled with guilt is really funny to me cause like
Imagine you’re Eva Stratt. You somehow handled it at the time but the guilt of kidnapping Grace has been eating away at you for decades by now.
Then the Beatles arrive and you prepare yourself for a sobbing, resentful Grace that will haunt you for the rest of your life. Then you start going through the recordings and not only find out about Eridians, but also that Grace is the only astronaut still alive and ended up happier than he was on Earth. (He might have also died of starvation, but you know he found a way.)
TLDR Stratt was overrun with guilt for more than 20 years only to find out she lowkey gave Grace a better life and I think that’s funny.
