Hi! First off: Happy New Year!

Now... I am accepting funds. I sent in my electricity payment and they'll turn my power back on tomorrow, but this puts me deeply behind with my rent money

[blackfemmecharacterdependency]

Hi. Like me being able to be around a little bit more? Help by offering any amount, none is too small, towards me staying in my home. One day, I'll catch up, but today is not that day.

[blackfemmecharacterdependency]

Leaving this in the queue because my GoFundMe is simply not really going nor funding me, and I am hoping that perhaps there might be some spare change in your couch cushions to send up my way. I have spent five entire days just laying in bed either on this device or full of pills to sleep.

"Star Trek" cast pay a beautiful tribute to Anton Yelchin "Love, Antosha." (2019)

STAR TREK Deleted Scene (watch here)

Uhura: Mr. Spock, that music really gets to you. Spock: Yes. I find it relaxing. Uhura: Relaxing? It's.... I don't know what to call it - but relaxing's not the word. Spock: Most interesting. I suppose it works differently on non-Vulcan nervous systems. Uhura: I'd certainly like to learn how to play that. Spock: I'd be glad to give you the theory. The mathematics are somewhat complex. To my knowledge, no non-Vulcan has ever mastered the skill.

Welcome to the stars. 

I have a mighty need to draw fancy dresses and clothes so be prepared

Stickers and Shirts here

[maeraevokaya]

I bought a shirt of this design (badge too)! 😃

[theofficialastronomy101]

Some more clear shots of our moon!

[charl0ttan]

huge fan of the depth of a good purple but another area that draws me is definitely around aquamarine/turquoise/seafoam. you can not go wrong once the green starts getting just a tinge more blue. a gal could certainly do worse than to pull over there and stay a while

[charl0ttan]

something earth shattering going on here

[emily84]

this is why one of my favorite all-time paintings is Ship in Stormy Seas by Ivan Aivazovsky... he was really onto something there

a close up to just... light shining through those waves, makes me feel faint with exhilaration every time

[is-there-a-boat]

THERE IS A BOAT BY IVAN AIVAZOVSKY!!

[clayandsorcery]

Ivan Aivazovsky could paint glowing water. One of the GOATs for sure.

The full rotation of the Moon as seen by NASA’s Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter.

[wilwheaton]

It’s so beautiful and amazing that we live at a moment in time when we can see the entire moon, and not just the side that’s tidally-locked toward the Earth.

​I create a lot of Spirk content, but recently I went looking for some fan art of Spock and Nyota Uhura a pairing I also truly appreciate. I was honestly shocked by the comments I found; they were terribly racist and deeply unsettling. ​As a Latina, this kind of hate hits me harder than usual. That’s why I decided to create a piece of art featuring them: to plant love instead of hate in this chaotic world. I choose to respond through my art.

[maeraevokaya]

I love this! (And yes, the comments towards the pairing are truly horrid.)

Keep up the good work!

[whineandcheese24]

not to be a bitch but i think brilliant minds is proof that a lot of tumblr fans who want their ship to be together because of Representation are full of shit because what do you mean there's a show where the main character is gay and has a relationship with another main character, there are three women of color in the main cast, one of whom is a lesbian (with anxiety rep) whose girlfriend is a recurring character, there's currently three other men of color in the main/supporting cast, one of whom is gay, and all these characters have strong emotional storylines that are real and heartfelt and not blown up for messy drama, and all of these characters love each other so much and respect each other so much, and the whole thesis of the show is what if doctors actually treated their patients like real people and did everything not just to treat their sickness but to help them live full and meaningful lives with it,

and yet despite all of that it's probably going to be canceled after this season because no one's watching it

[maeraevokaya]

I'd *really* like to watch the show, but alas I don't think it's available on Australian steaming services yet.

[maeraevokaya]

Nevermind, I found it on one of my streamers (yay!):

[maeraevokaya]

So, I started watching some weeks ago (or a month and a half??), and I love it! Partway through season 2, but got sidetracked with games. I should probably get back into it and finish the season. Wondering if there'll be a season 3, but I've seen no confirmation of it. Sad, really.

[maeraevokaya]

Very late, but at least we have an update!

“After thirty years of intensive research, we can now answer many of the questions posed earlier. The recycle rate of a human being is around sixteen hours. After sixteen hours of being awake, the brain begins to fail. Humans need more than seven hours of sleep each night to maintain cognitive performance. After ten days of just seven hours of sleep, the brain is as dysfunctional as it would be after going without sleep for twenty-four hours. Three full nights of recovery sleep (i.e., more nights than a weekend) are insufficient to restore performance back to normal levels after a week of short sleeping. Finally, the human mind cannot accurately sense how sleep-deprived it is when sleep-deprived.”

Sleep is a super power

[lady-griffin]

That last bit makes a whole lot of sense and it honestly astounds me, that I never once considered it.

But yeah that seems very obvious.

Finally, the human mind cannot accurately sense how sleep-deprived it is when sleep-deprived.

[misanthropemom]

It’s so nice to be validated that 7 hours is shit.
