Alright tell me in the tags, what’s Your Poem? That poem you heard once and it has dwelt within you ever since?
seeing something new literally every time i even glance at a page of house of leaves like that bit where johnny goes off saying "parent)he) see)s)(sic)" what with the more obvious phonetic invocation of "parent he sees" and then just now recognizing the secondary "sea-sick" at the very end which hits you like a FREIGHT TRAIN because johnny really did really see both his parents sick! what the fuck!!!
oh and NOT. TO. MENTION! s)(sic <---- PISCES!!!! the SS atrocity torn to PISCES. need i say more!
ok so this is another long shot but a few years ago there was a twitter post (in japanese i think?) that had measurememts for how to make this book stand thing out of cardboard that you could use to double up books and use up more space on shelves
back then i made a bunch of these but by now i lost the pic and dont know how to find the original post anymore
if it comes down to it i can just take one apart and get the measurements from there but i would be very grateful if anyone happens to have the original post or something similar??
don't mind how long it's been since i made this post, anyway i realized that i don't even need to take one apart to get the measurements when i can literally just unfold it and refold it /FACEPALM
so anyway here is the diagram for anyone else who is interested!!
this requires pretty big carboard pieces, if you have a really big box or something you can make it from one piece, but if you don't, you can also just make each of the pieces individually and then tape them together
and then in the end you put it together like this!!
and then when you make a bunch you can put them all next to each other and stack your books like crazy
EVERYONE START GETTING MORE USE OUT OF YOUR SPACE NOW!!!!
Photographer Debbie Parker captured this lightning strike in West Virginia. - Author: sco-go
so i went to track down the source of this image to see if there might be a before/after, and instead what i found was... a similar but different image???
this is the original, as reported in the june 29th 2022 edition of the moorefield examiner, linked here and also here. supposedly this still was taken from an iphone video, which makes sense. notice the motion blur on the lightning strike, and how the red/orange tones in the tree are blown out. the version shared by OP is comparatively much more evenly exposed. at first i thought it might be a separate still from the same video, but the closer you look the more conspicuous differences you notice.
for instance, this is NOT the same bush:
note as well that OP's version has the tree utterly unaffected by wind, where the original is clearly experiencing a strong gust:
there's also the fact that OP's version has more space on the bottom of the frame, which creates a more visually pleasing and balanced composition. but then, what about all that other stuff in the foreground at the bottom right? it's nowhere to be seen:
so, clearly OP's version has been shopped, probably with AI ("set extension" tools were some of the earliest functional implementations of generative image tech to hit the adobe suite iirc). stare at the doctored version long enough and you start noticing all sorts of weirdnesses. like what's going on here exactly?
why are these some of the only tree branches that occlude the path of the lightning bolt? it kind of looks like the tree only has branches on one side, the side facing away from the camera, in order to maximize the photographer's visibility.
but here's what gets me. OP's post still credits the original photographer, which is how i was able to track down the source image in the first place. if not for that credit, i'd have just assumed this was a real photo and moved on like everyone else. to be clear, i don't think OP is responsible for the modification. virtually all popular nature photography is already heavily doctored within acceptable limits, and anyway it's such an innocuous picture, so it's easy to imagine how something like this might slip under the radar. but it is a shocking example to stumble upon of how easy it can be for a real thing to have its sharpest edges sanded off without anyone noticing. i don't know what if any conclusions to draw from it (this is hardly a new phenomenon, the picture itself isn't particularly important, and again they still credited the original photographer) besides, i guess, to do a little digging on sources when the image in question DOES matter.

[/\||\/] |Â "UP/DOWN"
Your name is [SEURE]. You must go UP or DOWN. You already know which way you will go, and what that means.
A game I wrote, designed, and programmed on and off over the past 3 weeks. Free to play and enjoy!
F4 for windowed mode. Use spacebar to interact, b for menu.
Genre: surreal, psychological horror. Possible trigger warnings for:
blood
gore
death
low droning sound
cannibalism
Best played with headphones in the dark. This game is slow-paced and should take about an hour/1.5 hours to complete. The game isn’t over until you see the credits.

a cat giving you a loving gaze means so much. dogs stare at you like they love you all the time, cats give you the nastiest stink eye so when they actually gaze at you lovingly you feel like you’re actually worth loving and have done something to achieve that.
and they’ll bestow it upon you after tormenting you for half an hour
it’s so magical and beautiful that there are sprawling interconnected cave systems carved deep into the earth by various geological forces and you don’t have to go in them. there are miles and miles of stone passageways in total darkness that require you to exhale all the air out of your lungs to squeeze through parts of them and you don’t have to be there. some of these squeezes are underwater and require cave divers to take off their oxygen tanks and push them through ahead of them and me i am above ground looking at the sky as we speak. there are untold subterranean wonders no human has ever seen and i will not be the one to discover them #grateful #blessed
so true there could be any number of undiscovered species down there all of which are none of my business and never will be. peace and love on (the surface of) planet earth đź’•

stop. analyse that text through the lens of its author's intentions and original historical context. okay now take the author out back and kill them dead and analyse that text as though it were published by your mutual yesterday and is in direct conversation with the contemporary discourse that's most relevant to your life. okay now pick your favorite angle of interpretation and come up with the strongest possible argument against it. now imagine that the text is your best friend and that it means you well and that you naturally give it every benefit of the doubt because you're on its side and you want the best for it. now imagine that the text wants you dead and it'll eat you if you don't eat it first. now pretend that you found this text locked away in a cave with no evidence of when or where it came from and you have to divine its meaning solely through its internal coherence and nothing else. okay now address the elephant in the room aspect of the text you've been ignoring because you find it boring or confusing or uncomfortable and become the number one expert on it. now spend forty minutes assigning all the characters dnd classes with at least three sentences of reasoning each. okay now do the cha cha slide.
American pro wrestling is awesummmmm
call me terminally academia-brained but i do think a lot of the fun of character analysis is figuring out how to build a compelling argument for a particular reading using lines of evidence from canon as well as meta/intertextual support
and you could say that what i’m saying here is basically “a lot of the fun of doing character analysis is doing character analysis” but let’s be real a lot of fandom character analysis is pretty heavily vibes-based. and i think that’s where i really chafe up against the traditional thought-terminating fandom attitude of like, everyone’s opinions hold equal weight and any interrogation of that is inherently hostile. because i think it’s fascinating to dig into where others are coming from in terms of their views on characters or dynamics or whatever, especially when they differ significantly from more commonly expressed views, and part of that digging is asking people okay what parts of canon are you drawing from to support your opinion? what parts of canon are you disregarding or downplaying? how does this argument hold up in the light of how race, gender, class, ability, etc. operate both in the piece’s in-fiction and real world contexts?
so we all know this admin is definitely haunted by history's messiest clowns but recently it's DEFINITELY been mao's turn on th planchette. right.
