Oranges are good you just now brushed your teeths

I just like mothman, ok? /20/ Orange_youglad on Ao3/ actively learning German 🇩🇪

Hello! I'm Oj. Short for Overdone Jalapeños, of course. Not short for Orenthal James Simpson. No, I did not behead my wife. Even if I did, you can't prove it.

Anywho, I'm a stem major of Medical Lab Science and totally don't use my knowledge to make cryptids anatomical in my free time. Speaking of cryptids, I am the author of the longest Mothman fic on Ao3! I'm very normal about it.

My favorite color is Orange. Favorite fruit is.... watermelons. Or strawberries. Both. Not Oranges. I could crush some cuties (tiny oranges). I have 2 lizards.

I'm a legal papered citizen of ♡NEBRASKA♡ and I love it so. My home is the corn. Just like most other Nebraskans, I'm a little Jesus freak but follow a very lesser known off-shoot. The Catholics don't really like the way I've actually read the Bible and not just their million fanfictions. Not to trigger the Catholics.

I will also be paneling at Dashcon 2.2 with the presentation "CreepyPasta: a 2010's Autopsy".

DNI: Minors, haters of Hatsune Miku, haters of Nebraska, Huskers, Nevada fans, The state of Nevada, @chuckster, and scientologists.

Star Trek has spent sixty years queerbaiting the same two dudes and I for one will never get tired of it

[anewstartrekfan]

I don’t think any other queerbait gets as close as these two

I was getting ready for work, pulling my blonde hair into a messy bun, throwing on some converse and a flannel because I’m not like other girls. As I look at my sky azure crystalline ocean sapphire bird of paradise blue eyes (that aren’t really blue because they turn stormy rain cloud slate when it’s dark or when I’m angry), Eva Stratt came in.

“I sold you to pay our debts,” she said. “Come meet your new masters.”

A single dainty tear trails down my face. I went downstairs and there they were— Rocky and Adrian.

The fact that this doesn't work but 1D did should be the topic of mother hecking doctorate studies.

Should I write fanfiction? Maybe Ryland Grace, Sebastian Wilder ect. Should I?? I've always avoided it because of that ao3 curse rumour.

The carbon Monoxide leak in my house was well worth the 6 years I've been working on my fics.

[cottoncandylesbo]

[steorn]

I like that english speakers can say anything with a "y" and it's understood as an affirmative. yep. yurp. yee. ya. yurr. yay

Study finds nearly every pre-2010 video game is unavailable

Games from older consoles are being made less and less available to the point so much of the industry's history could easily vanish without

Vimm's Lair: Preserving the Classics

Preserving classic videogames from consoles past.

I'm just gonna slide this on in here for anyone that is interested in preserving old games. They take it very seriously too, they want an archive of every single game. Like, they have lists of every game ever released for a system, and once that system gets old enough, they add it to their archive and start collecting. Their latest addition was the Xbox 360, they opened that vault up in September 2022, and proudly announced they'd finished their collection of games for it back in April.

Also, while their game archives are almost entirely complete, they've got another project of archiving the manuals that came with those games, and that is... considerably less well filled out. Their collection of Xbox 360 manuals is especially rough, they've only gotten manuals for three games. So if you've got some Xbox 360 games kicking around, and the manual's still with them, please consider scanning them and submitting them to the site!

Game preservation is important, but people rarely consider preserving the manuals as well; I really respect Vimm's Lair for being so thorough in their archival work.

[anachronic-cobra]

I've been using Vimm's Lair for years, I have yet to see a single bad link or virus on the entire site. It's arguably the safest and most comprehensive archive of video games in existence. Preserved history

" Ihave never hurt anyone in my life, nor have I ever upset anyone to the point that they would hate me. I am pretty much the easiest person in the world." Aries are just like that

I don’t think we’re rick rolling each other enough anymore. 1. it CANNOT die out 2. this under saturated market is perfect for unsuspecting victims who’ve been lulled into a false sense of security. be the person you hate. bring back the dastardly link

[json-derulo]

someone actually studied the falling Rick Roll rate for their Ph.D dissertation recently and published the paper

[junefrombug]

okay but this made me wonder if there was actually any academic literature on rickrolling and YES THERE IS this is a paper about rickrolling WITHIN academic literature. As in, studies that attempt to rickroll the people reading them. Best part is no one is going to believe me and click that link even though it’s 100% true.

[niltia]

My friend's book is mentioned in this paper!!

[teaboot]

There is no earthy way of convincing anyone that the rickroll study link is real. But for what it's worth. It is

[cat-26]

I have a new goal in my almost-finished PhD dissertation.

[thatwasfunnypleaselaugh]

Second link's good guys, truly

[type-blaze0]

Teaboot's right, there is basically nothing on earth that could convince me to click the second link. I genuinely believe it might be real, but i'm not touching it.

[orange-youglad1]

I had a big smile on my face, expecting to get rickrolled. What I did not expect is the blue and black text on a white background indicating a research paper. It is real.
