This spell has a very low hit ratio, so we need a lot of us to do it.

Gen-Z got a chunk of the Carboniferous, and now all their memes are about how pathetic and small today's dragonflies are.

Nostalgia Content [Explained]

Transcript Under the Cut

[Cueball is standing, with his arms out, in front of a Prototaxite towering over a mossy landscape. To his right, a Tamagotchi (bottom-left) and milk-caps (referred to in this comic as "pogs", top-left) appear. The 3 milk-caps that can be seen show a skull with a snake through its eyeball, a figure 8 & a star (3 more milk-caps are also shown, but have obscured pictures).] Cueball: Who else remembers pogs? Tamagotchis? Vast forests of Prototaxites towering over the mossy landscape as armored fish stir in the deep?

[Caption below the panel:] Due to a database error, millennial nostalgia now includes a portion of the early Devonian.

im so sad this is from a deactivated blog i feel like i just found a heartfelt message in an old locket at a garage sale

it’s crazy to me that every seed in existence is a little chemical computer taking readings of temperature and moisture and minerals and all that to see if it’s able to grow yet and they’re doing crazy stuff like going into full dormancy and waiting for species-specific conditions etc etc and some seeds will do this in the size of a dust particle (see: orobanche) and some will pack in extra starch and food and do it in the size of a coconut or something… just dissected this flower seed at work that was a woody two-compartment capsule with one embryo per compartment, the whole seed a little smaller than a dime, and I swear to god it had a full soybean’s worth of embryo and food packed in there. it’s just unfathomable to me

[botanyshitposts]

sometimes a seed strikes me as being like a little spaceship with on-board life support and stuff. all that’s inherently certain about a seed’s existence is that its parents survived nearby, presumably, so if all goes well it’ll be set up for some kind of success falling where it falls, but ideally the seed won’t see those exact conditions, because being too close could also hurt the seed’s chances of survival… as could being too far away, like if it ends up in a different habitat or ecosystem and the right conditions never happen. The whole food-on-board strategy was a huge buff when they patched it in after ferns and other spore-bearing plants, but it’s still basically outer space, right? Just deploying a hundred ships to different planets in the same star system, hoping it’s not so different down there that it’s unsurvivable? like every seed is a chance and different plants are putting different amounts of food, effort, and strategy into those chances. so you get a million different seeds from a million different species and they all look and act different from the ground up. you know what I mean, man. you know what I’m sayin

I need you all to watch my favorite Characters Welcome sketch. like there's so much going on here but the way he says "petite fiancee" alone makes it worth the watch

Oh, he knows.

In these more stoic cultures, it’s like, if I don’t know you, you’re not in. But the moment you are in, I will fucking die for you. Once Shane was in, Ilya was like, “You’re mine forever. I will do anything for you.” — Connor Storrie

“While being a femme sometimes renders me invisible in the eyes of the queer and straight communities, it can also open doors. After all, invisible women can use our stealthy wiles to access spaces that others can’t, and while inside we might even be able to hold the door open for others. That might mean I can make it easier for my partner to use the women’s washroom by chatting with her or asking to borrow a tampon, or engaging in friendly small talk with the nice middle-aged straight couple at the campsite next to ours, using my girl-next-door charm to distract them from wondering about my partner’s gender identity. It often means being the one to deal with authority figures. My “Type A” personality and ability to shift into business mode means I’m usually the one to negotiate the rental contracts for the queer cabarets I co-organize in my spare time. And I was the first choice to explain to two police officers why they didn’t need to worry about our raucous Pride party getting out of control, even though the lawn was full of glittery, scantily clad partygoers of all genders and orientations. It worked, and they drove away satisfied. I bring my values into the privileged spaces to which I have access, like the fourteenth-floor boardroom where I politely but firmly explained to the chair of the national health research meeting why it wasn’t appropriate to refer to transgendered people as “its.” I don’t always care whether the people in these situations know that I’m a homo. I just want to use the tools I have at my disposal to do right by my community. Sometimes being queer while looking straight is about blending in, which has the potential to be a powerful and subversive act. You find out who your allies and your enemies are pretty quickly when they assume you’re “one of us” (instead of “one of them”). Whatever you call it, femme invisibility or passing can help keep you and your loved ones safe. At other times, being a femme is about choosing to stand out, which can be synonymous with coming out—something many femmes get a lot of practice at. Think of it as a conscious, strategic use of privilege. Think of yourself as a hidden weapon in the fight for queer liberation.”
