blue sunset on Mars is a real phenomenon caused by the way Martian dust scatters sunlight.

Unlike Earth, where sunsets are red and orange due to the scattering of shorter blue wavelengths by our atmosphere, Mars has an extremely fine dust that scatters blue light more efficiently near the Sun.

So during sunset on Mars, the sky turns reddish-brown while the area around the Sun glows a soft blue. It’s the opposite of what we experience on Earth.

"I asked chat gpt" well I asked rocky and he put on a little puppet show for me and my tiny brain.

continuing my love for aroace Ryland Grace, I enjoy imagining his dynamic with Rocky and Adrian as a third wheeler with two friends in a relationship who treat him like a semi-son. like this. he's 100% a designated backseat princess.

“Do it scared” “do it alone” are all great tips, but my biggest takeaway from therapy is do it messy. This is especially true if you’re getting out of a burnout, which I experience often. Literally just do it messy. You don’t need to pick the perfect trail to walk, the perfect playlist to listen to, whatever the fuck it is. You don’t need to have a meticulous to do list and wake up at the exact time you planned and drink the exact amount of water you planned to drink. Like the biggest thing for people like me to remember is sometimes it’s okay to do it messy. Put on a random yt workout and just get it done in sweats. Do 5 minutes of a daunting task and go from there. Sometimes just getting up is a win during intense burnouts or depressive funks. Literally just do it messy.

Celestial Oak I painted this over a month ago and totally forgot to post it lol

I love the idea of each acorn containing it's very own universe 🌌 I've also been designing some acorn lanterns, photos coming soon!

my fav relationship ship dynamic is where it doesn't matter if you call it platonic or romantic or queerplatonic because they always act the same in every type of relationship. and the way they act? fucking weird.

Hey someone suggested I use ChatGPT to figure out adulting today, and as I was going through the mental list of places I'd rather look, I realized "beloved strangers on Tumblr dot net" was on that list.

So if you have an aspect of adulting that you're really good at-taxes, budgeting, cooking, insurance, credit, time management, house upkeep, anything-please feel free to reblog with any tips.

Not me, but @bitchesgetriches has a lot of great resources for many of these topics on their website.

I have one bit of advice that applies to basically all adulting tasks: work with the brain you have, not the brain you think you should have.

Have to make a scary phonecall, and cuddling a toy would make it easier but you feel like that's stupid? Doesn't matter! Cuddle the toy!

Need to use a planner but you keep forgetting it? Literally tie it to your bag!

Dishes keep piling up and becoming insurmountable so then you just don't do them and your eating gets worse? Only keep an amount of dishes you can ACTUALLY feel able to clean around. Everything else goes away, or someplace inconvenient, so there are never too many dishes to clean.

It doesn't matter if a cope is silly, childish, or excessive. This is how you can do it so this is how to do it. You don't have to do things the way someone with a different brain does them. Screw "willpower". Work smarter, not harder, even if working smarter means doing something that might seem a little dumb.

“Being aromantic and asexual sounds nice. You can skip all of the drama.”

That would be true if society reacted normally to childless single people or anyone else that doesn’t fulfill their expectations of a stereotypical relationship. The way things are now, the drama just comes from a different angle. Amatonormativity is a prison.
