Sporadic Ramblings and Nerdery

A Tumbler of venting, ballyhoo, other random thoughts and one hell of a lot of reblogs.

Medication is so annoying. I don’t want to get up so I can take more ibuprofen because the cramps are starting up. I want to take 100 pills of Tylenol and 100 pills of Motrin at the beginning of any given cycle and then be good for like three months. Or one month! Or one week! It doesn’t have to be an efficient usage of the medication if it means I don’t have to think about it at all for a bit. That would be nice. But unfortunately this kills you. Yet another example of how the science engages in a constant conspiracy to make you get up out of bed just when the nap was getting good.

Absolutely sick and tired of this mammal bullshit. Give me a sunbeam and one enormous pile of all my necessary medication in the form of a fully intact pig that I slowly digest over the course of a week

There's a scene in very early 60's Doctor Who where a character falls into a swamp, I think, and they throw not a rag doll, but a card board cut out of the actor. 10/10 they don't make 'em like this no more

The Ring And Lilo & Stitch Star Daveigh Chase Has Died, Aged 35

As well as her iconic performance as Samara in The Ring, Daveigh appeared in Donnie Darko and voiced Chihiro in the English dub of Spirited

Tragic, and all the more glaring that just after the Lilo and Stitch live-action remake made almost a billion dollars, Lilo's original voice actor died homeless.

The Orusulu [Bribri mythology; Costa Rican mythology]

In the indigenous mythology of the Costa Rican Bribri people, Orusula was a monstrous demon.

He resembled a boar of colossal proportions and lived in lagoons and swamps, where he dwelt in the mud. Orusula was able to produce a noxious foam that inflicted a rash on people who touched it, and this rash would eventually kill the victims.

I’m speaking in the past tense for a reason: long ago, Sibu, the supreme deity of the Bribri pantheon, fought the demon and defeated it.

He cut off the monster’s head and drained the blood from the corpse. Sibu kept this blood as a reminder to the mortals, so that humans would not forget the power of the creator god.

poor things, well we should definitely make this easier on them by never repeatedly mentioning their name and deeds on the "reblog things forever" website

[septicake]

yea that'd be a shame

by the way, just so everyone knows what not to do, shift+r reblogs a post instantly

just make sure you don't reblog anything about oceangate because that would completely undermine their entire plan 😇😇😇

[curoopeez]

You also shouldn't queue a post, that would make people keep remembering this post for a longer time, which is the opposite of forgetting

Oh no, my hand slipped and landed on the schedule button so it posts on that wonderfully explosive day, oh noooo...

‘Supergirl’ Soars in First Reactions: “Jason Momoa Was Born to Play Lobo”

The first reactions are in for the DC Studios adventure, with audience members saying that star Milly Alcock "is the perfect Kara."

Hm, initial reactions seem to be mostly positive, with most of the praise going towards Milly Alcock and Jason Mamoa in an otherwise "messy" film with a bland villain... Although to my understanding, the movie is more a character piece centred on Kara rather than her reacting off of the bad guy, but I'll see for myself when I see it next week hopefully.

THE DOOM PATROL #1

Written by DARCY VAN POELGEEST Art and cover by NIKO HENRICHON Variant covers by CLAYTON CRAIN and IAN BERTRAM Next Level variant cover by HAYDEN SHERMAN Foil variant cover by CLAYTON CRAIN 1:25 variant cover by ASHLEY WOOD $3.99 US | 32 pages | Variant $4.99 US (card stock) | Variant $6.99 US (foil) ON SALE 9/2/26

The Doom Patrol is broke. Adopting a heroes-for-hire business model to stave off financial and emotional ruin, the team finds itself responding to a simple case—a missing cat. But when this case proves to be far from simple, the world’s strangest heroes find themselves pulled into a truly out-of-this-world situation! And elsewhere, beyond the view of Robotman, Elasti-Girl, and Negative Man—and perhaps even beyond the veil of our reality—a ghost of the team’s past is preparing to cross into their world.

The visionary team of Eisner Award-winning writer Darcy Van Poelgeest (Little Bird) and legendary artist Niko Henrichon (Spectators, Pride of Baghdad) ushers the Doom Patrol into a new age for DC Next Level.

If you're ever searching for a new musical movie I highly suggest Bran Nue Dae, or even just listening to the soundtrack. It's THE quintessential Australian road trip movie and the music is banger after banger after banger

I'll add it to my watchlist but I gotta say seeing an Australian accent spelled out phonetically triggered my fight, flight, or freeze response.

I mean, I'm all for creative crossovers, but sometimes I just have to think:

Interestingly the one before this is Godzilla invading the Odyssey, which at least have other giant monsters to fight (even if in worldbuilding terms it makes me wonder how a bronze age would develop in a world where 100ft monster show up occasionally to wreck up the place).

They've been pretty good so far, the ridiculousness of them being part of the fun. From The Great Gatsby to Romeo and Juliet, this has been a blast!
