im that scary-on-the-outside-cute-on-the-inside typa guy- literally wear keroppi socks under my big spikey boots. so you'll see that reflected in my reblogs and streams, but dont worry, the horror is always there >:]
hope to see you around the graveyard, spirits and ghosties
this is exactly the way i meant it :) the sooner u love urself the sooner we can all play mario kart btw. but its ok if u take a while. we are not going anywhere
if youâre offline or away and i message you something (like a link to a meme or a picture or w/e) honestly just assume that iâm just leaving it there for when you get back and not expecting you to answer straight away. i donât need you to respond with âhey, sorry, i wasnât at the computer!â or anything. i was leaving u a gift for later.
This also applies if youâre online and just donât want to or have the energy to deal with humans in the moment. Just because we have the ability to reply in real time does not mean we have the obligation.
fucks me up that by total coincidence the sun and moon's size difference is exactly matched to their difference in distance from us, thus making our beautiful total solar eclipses where you can see the silver threads of the sun's corona possible because the moon just covers the sun completely
The stars (literally) aligned just right for this experience to be possible. It's likely that aliens don't have this
The moon is also absolutely gargantuan by moon standards. It isn't the largest moon in the solar system, but it is BY FAR the largest in comparison with its planet. Ganymede is the largest satellite of Jupiter and the largest moon in the solar system. Its diameter is only about 3.8% of Jupiter's. Titan's radius is 4.4% of Saturn's. Callisto and Io are the next largest in the neighborhood, with 3.4% and 2.6% the diameter of Jupiter respectively.
Our moon is number 5. It is smaller in direct comparison to the above moons. The diameter of the moon is 3475 km. That is a full 27% of the diameter of the Earth. More than a quarter. That's ridiculous. It's unheard of. The universe is large enough that the word unique probably doesn't mean a lot, but this might be about as close as you get.
This has had a huge impact on our planet. Other things aliens might not have are significant tides. One of Mars's dumpy little potatoes wouldn't be able to move oceans the way our moon does.
Our moon has also stabilized our axis to a massive degree. Without her up there our axis would wobble all over the place and our climate would be far more chaotic. Aliens might not be quite so lucky.
I guess what I am really trying to say is that the moon is extremely cool. I like the moon.
Just want to add that the reason we have such a large moon is because a whole planet crashed into proto-Earth. Theia (the planet) and Earth got so superheated by this collision that their component cores fused and the impact jettisoned a lot of material into space. That massive amount of jettisoned material became our moon. So Earth and the moon have very similar composition. This does not seem to be a common method of lunar formation.
