God could you imagine how mad geologists must have been to slowly watch the "hey all the continents kinda fit like puzzle pieces :)" guy get proven right

[madnessofmen]

It was a woman that did it!

[talldarkandautistic-deactivated]

I love girl talk, especially when it’s complex geological theory

@rifle-yes

All the continents really did used to be one body so you really are never alone and girls said it first 💁‍♀️

[rifle-wtf]

My girl is an icon and we regularly turn this photo of her into a meme when men in our department say/do stupid things.

Crucially, Alfred Wegener, "the guy" OP is talking about made a lot of valuable observations, but wasn't able to explain established phenomena.

Wegener's ideas fell apart as soon as someone asked questions like "so how did these continents drift apart?" because all he had was some interesting observations (for example, Wegener noticed that fossils from identical species could be found an ocean apart, but almost as if they had a natural range across two specific areas that were at some point connected).

Without Marie Tharp, Wegener's ideas would have just been interesting food for thought, not a fully developed robust scientific understanding allowing us to predict volcanic eruptions and earthquakes and allowing us to understand continental drift.

It's wild that Wegener's ideas were dismissed as amateurish and Tharp's discoveries and huge quantities of data analysis dismissed as "girl talk". But they sure changed the face of geology and Marie Tharp specifically has saved lives through her diligent charting of the sea floor and her discovery of that rift and its movement.

Incredibly fucked up that flowering plants weren’t really a thing until the Cretaceous.

Think about it. We had all of these huge, big-brained vertebrates well before we had grass

Stegosaurus never ate fruit because fruit didn’t exist yet

I know in my heart he would have fucking loved berries

[quark-nova-deactivated20260116]

Thankfully, some stegosaurians lived until the mid-Cretaceous!

Hopefully one of them had the opportunity to try berries... 🥺

[a-dinosaur-a-day]

y'all know one of the favored hypotheses for stegosaur extinction is that they were so adapted for eating cycads that the rise of angiosperms caused their decline? like it's correlation at this point but in paleo that's often all we got

the point being, I really don't think stegosaurs would enjoy berries. it's entirely possible berries would poison stegosaurs

[baroncognito]

"Birds are notorious drunks"

[a-dinosaur-a-day]

y'all also know that not every poison can be microdosed for escapism, right? like if you eat hemlock you die. I figured that was common knowledge but idk

point being, given stegosaurs went extinct and it pretty much coincided with the downfall of cycads and the rise of angiosperms, the evidence very strongly indicates that berries et al were not in fact digestible by stegosaurs even in small, mind altering quantities

[collegiategrief]

Poison can be yummy tho so maybe they did enjoy it until the suffering ensued

[a-dinosaur-a-day]

yeah okay that I can believe

CHAPPEL ROAN accepting her Best New Artist, at the 67th GRAMMY Awards

"I told myself if I ever won a Grammy and I got to stand here in front of the most powerful people in music, I would demand that labels in the industry, profiting millions of dollars off of artists would offer a livable wage and healthcare, ESPECIALLY to developing artists."

bread so tasty. bread so nice. toast it once. toast it twice.

[toskarintoast]

toast three times. it turns to coal. burning toast is not my goal.

About ten, fifteen years ago I wrote a story about a guy living in a Capitalist dystopia. His walls, furniture, and tableware are all covered in smart displays. Basically animated wallpaper. It's sold as being able to turn your room or objects into anything - A nice forest view, outer space, a fantasy realm... but the companies that run this stuff keep sneaking ads in.

It gets so bad he's always being woken up by adverts that offer insomnia cures and better bedding that play when he tries to sleep.

So he buys the ad-free tier, and it's great... for a few months. And then he starts getting adverts from 'premium partners'. So he goes up a level... and the same thing happens.

So he jailbreaks his wallpaper and sends all the ad servers to 0.0.0.0 and voila... he can sleep.

Until this SWAT team blows his door off and drag him off to jail. The Ad companies are suing him for loss of revenue for the products he' notionally have bought if he'd watched their adverts, based on some weird 'The average consumer buys X products with an average value of Y' calculation.

The judge is like 'well I dun wanna annoy the sponsors' so he RICO's this guy's house and possessions and sends him to jail.

... which is a nice relaxed non-volent offender jail for the corporately disenfranchised. But because these people have no money... there's no ads and now he's happy because the only place he's free... is in prison.

Which at the time was a bit much and now it's like: Called it.

Elon's suing companies for not advertising because he's losing revenue. He's also cranking the price of Ad Free Twitter. Disney and Amazon play adverts on their paid service when services used to be free because of the adverts... and now you have to pay to watch the adverts or go up a couple of tiers.

And google's going around freaking out about ad-blockers.

OP did it hurt when Apollo's dodgeball hit you and made you write that story?

[naomistares]

harrow soup comic! harrow soup comic!

took some creative liberties with the structure of it all otherwise it would've been 20 pages long... love u tazmuir and all your words but i removed some for my sake... enjoy...

Whenever I am thinking very hard about The Locked Tomb, I find it important to remind myself Tamsyn Muir did compare the series to the KFC Double Down.

ADHD Medication information sheet

[brazenautomaton]

I have been struggling

For a long fucking time

with why my adderall was having such uneven effects and varying efficacy

and the weird pattern of what made it work and not work and if it was building up in my system or not

and fucking nobody told me I shouldn’t drink a glass of Kool-Aid to take the pills with

or eat fucking Pop-Tarts or Life cereal

this is the most useful information I have ever received from tubr and it seems to be confirmed by several other places upon searching

so this actually should be spread like wildfire like actually

[firebirdscratches]

Me reading this realizing tunglr dawt kom gave me more information about my medication than MYDOCTORRRRRSSSSSS MYYYYYYYY FUCKENNNNN DOCTORSSSSS PLURAL MULTIPLE DOCTORSSSSSSSS

[perpetualanachronisms]

Reblogging to spread this ridiculously important info

[punsbulletsandpointythings]

Generally speaking, your doctors actually may not know these things. This is the kind of stuff to ask your pharmacist about.

[sharm-the-shark]

Ok what the actual fuck , why does nobody tell you this like , wtf

[fuzzynecromancer]

Yeah you need to wait like an hour after taking your ADHD meds before you have anything with citric acid

[thatboomerkid]

wow as a life-long ADHD sufferer who spent three years on truly heroic doses of military-grade speed Vyvanse but discontinued the med when (a) the side-effects became too horribly overwhelming AND (b) i was already three weeks into withdrawal due to a nation-wide shortage, i just

oh my god

i took my meds with mountain dew or peach-tea lemonade or SOMETHING on that list probably about … 50% of the time?

… 70% of the time?

… 80% of the time?

who fuckin’ knows lol

what a complete goddamn disaster
