Just another cartoon in a cartoon graveyard

Mr. Bonedigger, get these mutts awat from me. I don't find this shit amusing anymore

[footlongdingledong]

had a dream that there was this new tiktok trend called "scrubbing" where people would take images of fictional characters and put them in images of bathtubs and drag around transparent pngs of soap and brushes with their tiktok art tablets and like liquify tool their hair down to mimic giving them a shower. and people would get into flamewars in the comments of every single video over the types of soap they picked and if the images had decently removed backgrounds and if they got soap in their eyes. and it got onto the news because it turned out everyone doing the trend was doing it compulsively like they physically couldn't stop and each video was a solid few minutes long because they were just collectively obsessively recording themselves fake-showering these fictional characters and arguing about it online

[footlongdingledong]

for the record I have never used tiktok and like explicitly in the dream I learned about it secondhand from a discord server so there's that also which is funny I think

Long brush with coarse brittles at the end FOR A CLAM?! DO YOU WANNA SCRUP IT'S DELICATE RIDGES OUT OF EXISTENCE?! I bet that water isn't even salty enough for it to live!! This is a SOFT-shell clam, not a hard shell!! You should be taking utmost care wiping it down, not just scrubbing it willy-nilly!

Ways people draw elf ears:

Slightly pointy

Very pointy

Triangles

Stitch ears

Limiting ear length is a sign of weakness.

you made this post a lot worse thanks

[hokuto-ju-no-ken]

you’re welcome

[magspag]

Fun fact, tolkien describes elf ears aa being shaped like the leaves of a tree, but does not specify what tree, so why not maple?

[prokopetz]

I love it when fanartists emphasise the physical contrasts between their favoured pairings to the point that they don't even look like they're drawn in the same art style anymore. Locked Tomb fans are out there drawing Harrow/Gideon like they're shipping Johnny the Homicidal Maniac with Johnny Bravo.

[prokopetz]

This is literally 100% what it looks like.

I've never played Cooke Clicker

But I can't help but feel that approaching it and games like it now is not ever going to be the same after Clickolding shook up the whole clicker games ecosystem.

Place: the VaporWave Store, your source for out-of-focus classical statuary, antique electronics, potted palms, asemic neon signs, and cleaning supplies for unusually large indoor pools

[magspag]

I headed down to the new VaporWorld at the old strip mall, but instead of bisexual lighting, slow jazz, and crumbling statuary, all they had was USB powered kratom accessories with ugly Rick and Morty banding all over them.

Download 30-gigs of lost cassettes from the 80s underground

Archive.org unleash a windfall of lost music

Archive.org deliver a windfall of lost music.

If you’re looking for a good way to spend the rest of your week, Archive.org have unearthed a gigantic collection of cassettes from the mid-eighties into the mid-nineties. According to their notes, the collection was saved from the archives of noise-arch.net and donated by former CKLN-FM radio host Myke Dyer in August of 2009. Due to the size and obscurity, the collection hasn’t been properly notated but is said to include cassettes ranging from “tape experimentation, industrial, avant-garde, indie, rock, DIY, subvertainment and auto-hypnotic materials”. Head to Archive now to download the free collection.

Aromantic? Like a candle that smells good?

[lordworm]

No, that's aromatic. Aromantic is when you act independently outside of external control.

[arohumor]

No, that's automatic. Aromantic is the time in history roughly around 1798 and lasting until 1837.

[alexei-home-fromthewar-at-last]

No, that’s the romantic period. Aromantic is having a shape that reduces drag or air resistance.

[azure-clockwork]

no that’s aerodynamic. Aromantic is when you’re a member of Greek hero Jason’s crew.

[straw-berri-78]

no thats an argonaut. aromantic is element number 33 on the periodic table.

[alto-tenure]

no, that's arsenic. aromantic is another name for mathematics

[glittercakes]

Nope, that’s arithmetic! Aromantic is the sea that separates the Italian and Balkan Peninsulas!

[piles-of-numbers]

mm no, that’s the Adriatic. Aromantic is when you spell a word by rearranging the letters of another word

[disgruntled-welshgirl]

Not quite, that's an anagram. Aromantic is what you call a flammable hydrocarbon without a benzene ring

[myriad-rainbows]

That's ALSO an aromatic! But aromantic is that little star character that's often used for footnotes*.

* Such as this one!

[emptymanuscript]

I *think* that's an asterisk. I always thought aromantic was a person who made prophetic predictions based on weather patterns.

[mckitterick]

I think that's an augurist. Aromantic is a literary term for a word that sounds like the thing it describes.

[goodgrammaritan]

No, you're thinking onomatopoeia. Aromantic is the scientific study of the structure of the atom, its energy states, and its interactions with other particles and with electric and magnetic fields.

[magspag]

That's atomic physics. Aromantic is website owner that bans trans women for no goddman reason.

[fadingembers]

As a kid, I was really upset that Bill Watterson wouldn't license Calvin & Hobbes so I could have plushies or so there would be a Saturday morning cartoon. Now, I realize his resistance is the reason we don't have a Calvin & Hobbes DreamWorks movie starring Chris Pratt.

[levil0vesyou]

I didn't wanna derail the other post but I still wanna spread some love for my favourite subject...

Reblog if you've ever felt genuine joy or excitement from doing and/or thinking about math

[arehera]

I have a distinct memory at, maybe 7 or 8 years old, of swinging in the playground, and suddenly stopping when I realized that x-y=-(y-x) and just burning with that knowledge for the whole day. I think I was probably 13 when my teacher challenged us to prove Heron's formula and I worked at it for hours, staying up way too late to scratch out another part of this massive multiplication and when I finally solved it there was a sense of serene calm. I laughed, literally laughed out loud, the first time I saw the formula for sums of arithmetic progressions, because it was so clean and clever, and I felt an almost hunger when I saw Euler's formula, one that was only really satisfied when I first realized you could use it to solve sines/cosines of sums.

I love math so much

[lipstickchainsaw]

I was genuinely incredibly excited when I realised that the decimals of 3/7th had the same infinite string of digits as 1/7th, starting at a different number, and that this was true for all of them, which is true only for the number 7.

It's been my favourite number since.

[fipindustries]

i remember when it clicked into me that the prime numbers are all the numbers that are NOT in the multiplication tables

[theothin]

I remember being around 8 and thinking about square numbers and noticing that you keep adding consecutive odd numbers to get to the next one (1+3=4, 4+5=9, 9+7=16...) and ending up visualizing it as expanding a square grid by another row/column by adding additional squares based on the number of rows/columns it already had. delightful realization that I later learned could be expressed as (x+1)^2=(x^2)+2x+1

[booksandchainmail]

There was a book in my 8th-grade math class that explained different base systems, and that knocked me out for a solid hour

[rotationalsymmetry]

I remember when I was in elementary school and I was just messing around with this calculator. And it was this old, cheap calculator that didn't round off the last digit. I'd do 1/9 and get a string of ones, 2/9 and get a string of twos, and go right on to 9/9 and even though I knew it was going to say one it was still a shock to not see a string of nines.

Math is fun.

[naamahdarling]

Never felt math joy but reblogging for those who have!

[grison-in-space]

This is more or less how I feel every time I watch the numbers dance in a population genetics proof, when I was first introduced to the concept of a fitness landscape, when I was in the senior year of my undergrad and could derive the theorems that came up in lab meeting on the fly without having the pathways explained first. When I think about fitness clines and alleles tumbling across space. When I think about the half completed mathematical model of the impact of niche partitioning on sexual dimorphism that I still have tucked in a folder somewhere, my side project with a dear friend from years ago.

Is it weird that I resent brains and acoustic signals and behavior on some level for taking me from that? Not that there isn't plenty of math in both fields, not that I'm not working with math all the time, but those are really the numbers that I think of when I think of the mathematics dancing in my heart.

[3liza]

when I was in middle school my dad was allowed to come teach my art class how to draw geometric perspective using physical tools like compasses and rules and t squares. for the rest of the day I felt like I was seeing through the physical reality of mass and distance, it was identical to later experiences on psychedelics
