Random not snake related rant below I miss the genuine internet. When the only things that were ads were either posts by actual artists or on the sides of the screen. When people would post what they love just because they wanted to, not because they were hoping to earn money for it. I miss when people asked questions it was because they actually cared about the answers, not because they were content farming for money. When there were no post bots, just people reaching out to each other or showing off what they're proud of. I understand the need to make money, especially in the US where the economy is shit and the rich are getting richer, and poor are getting poorer. And maybe I sound old, but I remember a time where we posted because we wanted other people to enjoy it, or to make conversation. Now the algorithm punishes original creators. It doesn't want actual posts, it wants vague questions that get a million comments, or rage bait that causes arguments, or ads that link to wholesalers. Back when the internet wasn't 90% of the world, and those of us on here were on here because of our niche interests so we could connect with others. Anyways. I've got lots of pics of the reptiles sitting waiting to be watermarked and posted, and some newer art coming so look forward to that <3

I like saying 'fuck me' because it can be sexual or self-loathing and both describe me perfectly! ~Bard

I find it funny that Tamlin is accusing Rhys of being entitled to Feyre, when that is actually how he Tamlin has been acting for the entirety of the book. Rhys doesn’t act entitled to her. Tamlin does.

Found this on Pinterest. Made me laugh. This is so something Rey would do.

NPC: *gesturing to Bard* Is this person bothering you? Rogue: Yes, but they are my partner. I signed up for this.

Just finished rewatching the Beantown Bailout Job, and I just love how Nate was trying to be normal, and his 4 chaos gremlins just showed up and latched back onto him

what is THE worst thing you've ever drank. all liquids acceptable. please tell me what it was, bonus points for why

[carby]

Hey whoa hi. Hello. I am looking directly into your ear canal. What do you mean you drank a tube of virus concentrate.

[whyamiherewhosummonedme]

So, I was working in a lab, right? My job in the lab was preparing a pure, concentrated enough sample of virus. This is tricky since, y'know, viruses require hosts to replicate, but you then need to get the host cells (and the pieces of the host cells that died!) out of the sample while still keeping the viruses. Once I'd finished and the samples had been sent to the database for analysis as well as a second one sent to be frozen for future reference, there was still some left over that needed to be disposed of.

I, knowing that this was a once in a lifetime opportunity, waited carefully for the lab director to be deep in conversation with someone else on the other side of the laboratory. And then I took my chance.

Test tubes, as it turns out, are really bad as shot glasses. Their shape turns any liquid inside into a stream, so you really can't knock it back quickly - it takes a couple seconds. Additionally, the best way I can describe the taste of virus concentrate was "sterile rot". A very unique kind of bad! Made worse by the test tube's inefficiency as a shot glass.

(by the way we were studying bacteriophages, not animal viruses. these viruses are too specialized on attacking prokaryotes to even recognize our cells as targets at all, according to studies.)

(but also like. if the viruses managed to successfully switch hosts and killed me with a violent infection, itd still be worth it.)

(for science.)

having now read 1.5 Sarah J. Maas books i do like the recurring theme of characters gaining weight as an indicator of improved health relative to their previous states of starvation

Fighter: How are we lookin’? Bard: Sexy, but not like we’re trying to, but like, sure we’re trying, but it’s almost effortless?

Violet: "Leadership's talking about Squad Battles"

Rhiannon: "How do you know?"

Violet: *points to her head* "I have a parasite."

Xaden, mentally: "PARASITE?!"

[darkfaegaming]

It's the day after Squad Battles, and General Lilith Sorrengail trudges to her office, with coffee in hand. She freezes as she opens the door, before yelling down the hall;

"Who the FUCK stole my map?!"

Markam happens to be nearby, and approaches as he says, "That would be your daughter."

"Mira? Why would she steal the map?!"

"Not Mira. Violet. Squad battles. They won"

"... Huh. She makes me proud."

Mira hears of it a few days later and is just like;
