Audio transcript : Hamster balls are like so dangerous for small animals. You know why? Because like, they can't extend their back properly, so their back is like thi-- (cuts off abruptly as the creature in the hamster ball is revealed to be a crab; pauses. The following is said with an affectionate tone like one uses when speaking of a cute animal:) Well, he can't break his spine 'cause he don't have a spine.

i'm so. emotional at the thought of this very professional, highly trained crew delaying their first meal (in a day scheduled down to the minute!) in sheer awe at the view of earth receding. and then getting the windows grubby in their excitement ;-;
before you beat yourself up for not cleaning, ask yourself:
is there a proper place to put the things you're tidying up?
a lot of times i would find myself struggling to finish cleaning things when the real problem was that I didn't actually have a permanent place for things to go once I had actually picked them up.
once I was making sure I had shelves or bins or organization things first, it became a lot easier to actually finish tidying things up since I knew where things were supposed to belong
Also his deeply underrated ability to clap back
Reminds me of that story about the teacher or lecturer or whatever who told their class "hey, the ceiling has 'gullible' written on it" and anyone who looked up discovered that yep, the word "gullible" really had been written on a piece of card and taped to the ceiling. And after letting that sink in for a while the teacher said something like "those of you who looked up have just demonstrated one of the most important tenets of research: check the source."
it's Shiloh, he's a demon entity now (WIP)
making my deer fursona a demon parasite puppeting a corpse (this could mean many things) but like, he's rly shy and timid and is only scary as a defense mechanism
also not to infodump but he represents a lot of things going on with me (plurality, autism, childhood trauma, low social skills, stunted mental development) and I find it therapeutic to vent those traits and issues through a half naked furry tboy
Shiloh himself is apart of me and I'm apart of him it's hard to tell who is who I'm ngl
also do y'all fw him?
The Fool. Art by Alexandria Huntington, from The Children of Ostara Tarot.
Much has been said of how Andrew J Robinson's performance of Elim Garak in his initial appearance was a spontaneous decision he made the first time he saw Alexander Siddig in costume, but it's fun to bear in mind that this must have been true from an in character perspective as well.
Like, this is Julian Bashir's first posting fresh out of med school; Garak theoretically has access to what's in Julian's academic record, but he has basically zero personal or professional history to go on.
We thus have to imagine Garak asking "all right, what is the best way to go about pumping this person for information?", taking one look at Julian, and making an on-the-spot decision that his best play is to crank up the daddy energy and attempt a good old-fashioned honey trap.

These pieces are made of Japanese mulberry paper and the gilded edges of old books. They are constructed by a technique of rolling and shaping narrow strips of paper called quilling or paper filigree. Quilling was first practiced by Renaissance nuns and monks who are said to have made artistic use of the gilded edges of worn out bibles, and later by 18th century ladies who made artistic use of lots of free time.

i’ve warmed up significantly towards the concept of small talk ever since i learned that its sole purpose is to make friendly noises.
as long as you smile and nod, people are satisfied. it’s just to show that you are nice and there with good intentions. we’re small in a big world and have to rely on other people to be decent to us. so we do our little human dance to each other to say, “i’m not here to hurt you. here’s something we have in common, like the weather or sports or itchy sweaters, so we both know we’re on the same team. we both agree on a basic fact, like that it is rainy or that being itchy is uncomfortable, and this proves we can get along. i’m being light-hearted and non-threatening right now.”
small talk isn’t to get to know a person. it’s just a greeting to affirm you’re buddies in the universe.
i am motivated by wanting the other person to know i am friendly, so i have gotten pretty decent at small talk when i used to hate it.
a friend of mine has a decently sized personal bar and one night he realized that a lot of his bottles and mixers were close to empty, not enough to make any given drink with, so he mixed them all together and it looked like the dirty water from those big floor scrubber machines. Dark purpley brown and thick and he decided it was the Floor Scrubber cocktail and actually drank it. It apparently tasted very bland.

our new job launched its mandatory ai transcription program designed to streamline our workflow and not only does it melt down the moment it has to transcribe non-white customers but it keeps hallucinating the existence of a mysterious boy named dorian who shows up in every third call summary
caller got into a car accident on their way to work? their nonexistant son dorian was hurt. got kicked out of a bar and broke their ankle? their son dorian was the one who broke it. i now spend more time having to de-dorian the call summary than if i had just written it myself. really funny. we're required to use this now
