Since I’ve gotten some new followers the past couple of weeks I thought it would be good to do a new introduction post..

Hi! I’m Pocki.  I’m in my late 30, and I live in Sweden. 

Right now I am mainly into Heated Rivalry and Dan and Phil, which you have most likely noticed.  But soon enough the My Chemical Romance tour will start back up and there’s going to be a lot of that on here as well. 

I’m a pretty new convert to everything tbh.  I hadn’t read Game Changers until like, the week the show was about to premiere. I joined the Phandom with the hard launch (yes I know some of you will distrust me because of that, I’ve seen how some people in the phandom are about new fans, but that’s just how it happened), and I guess I became an emo age like… 35. 

I like making things.  HR made me start writing fic again, and make some things in photoshop. Haven’t really done that for fandom in years. 

You can find my fic on ao3, and everything I make and post here is tagged. 

I also like to cross stitch! Both portraits and quotes/lyrics.

Mmm... other interests are boardgames, general just fibre/textile crafting, I haven't played D&D in forever but want to...

Oh and I am asexual and like the girls. Also I'm single and have said this is the year I should start doing something about it. So hey, hit me up.

Actually in general, I'd love more friends. My chat is open! Please come say hi, especially if you're new!

And by all means, hit up the about me tag for more.

Finally, worth knowing if you're following me: I use the queue a lot. And it is long af, while set to 50 posts a day. I bump all the important stuff to the top though.

The only reason why transphobes always ask “what is a woman” instead of “what is a man” is because we all know that a man is a featherless biped.

It’s 2023, women can have as many legs and feathers as they want- get with the times.

I can't believe none of this post shows off the actual most unique feature of this squid!!

One eye of this species is normal, the other is more than twice as big and bugged out. Each has different sensitivity to light levels so she can aim one up (towards the brighter sky) and the other down (to the darker depths) as needed.

No other animal has this setup that we've ever found!! You can't ignore her monocle!!!

[goatsandgangsters]

an interesting linguistics find! so I'm reading this text from 1908 and it keeps referencing "hp" in the context of "not being at full hp" "applying your full hp to a task" etc

and I'm like....... okay that is a perfectly normal way to describe energy and reads totally clear to me, but I KNOW you don't mean hit points/health points which is the first place my brain goes, so what are YOU using hp to mean

and it's not explained in-text, which means it was common enough to not warrant explanation to the 1908 audience, so gotta look elsewhere

horsepower. turns out it's horsepower.

and I'm absolutely FASCINATED that a commonly used initialism from 1908 now stands for something different AND YET the contextual meaning is still the same to a 21st-century reader

I could hand this guy my nintendo switch and he'd be like, ah yes I understand, this ''''pokemon'''' loses horsepower throughout the fight

language is amazing

A bus may have only a couple of passengers, especially at the beginning or end of its route. But let's also take fuel efficiency into account.

[foxoftheasterisk]

If there's one person on a bus because that person cannot or doesn't want to drive, the bus is succeeding.

[luckyladylily]

I read a study once on the fuel efficiency of various types of commuter vehicles (car, bus, train) on a per person basis and the number of people needed riding public transit to match the "efficiency" of cars is shockingly low. A bus needs to carry like 3-4 people to be fuel efficient, and trains require 2-3 per train car. Both often carry two dozen or more during peak hours, more than justifying any perceived requirements for efficiency for the train or bus to provide service the entire day.

[charlesoberonn]

Why would you talk to a genie when he's mid-fuck?

[earhartsease]

why are you saying he's a mid fuck?

OH So this guy’s purpose in life is to hang out in a Pokémon Center on Poni Island and tutor one move that only one Pokémon can learn, a Legendary postgame Pokémon from a Hoenn one/four generations ago. And that Pokémon naturally knows that move anyway.

Fuck me, I’m getting a new job. I’ll be standing in a Dunkin Donuts on Staten Island tutoring Spanish. But only if you’re early 19th Venezuelan military leader Simón Bolívar.
