Important reminder

[geeky-fuckery]

This reminds me of the fact that "Ancient Egypt" goes back so many thousands of years, that the most recent "Ancient Egyptians" were already studying (even more) Ancient Egypt.

[charlesoberonn]

Not even the most recent ones. It was an Egyptian prince from the 13th century BCE studying and restoring artifacts from the 26th century BCE.

[charlesoberonn]

For context, the last Pharaoh, Cleopatra VII, lived in the 1st century BCE. Prince Khaemweset, known as "the first egyptologist", was as ancient to her as the pyramids and tombs he was studying were ancient to him.

[theaudientvoid]

I remember having me mind completely blown when I learned that the "New Kingdom" was pre-Bronze Age Collapse.

[oxeanic]

This has totally be mentioned in another fork of this post, but it reminds me quite a bit of Ennigaldi-Nanna's museum, a museum in Ur, c. 530 BC, which housed mesopotamian artifacts dating back in some cases to the 20th century BC

Rare photos from trans history: Olympic runner and Zdeněk Koubek styles Cinda Glenn’s hair, 1936. Koubek was one of the first trans men to gain international fame after he transitioned in 1935.

[bemusedlybespectacled]

this is inspiring weirdly complex emotions in me. like, it’s the fucking 1930s. I can hear the mid-atlantic newsreel voice. the fact that it plays coy with why he knows so much about women’s hairstyles, but like, as a funny surprise, not as shock and horror. the fact that it never deadnames him or uses incorrect pronouns. the fact that he looks like Mickey Rooney. idk it’s just making me feel feelings.

Qifrey will never admit when he needs help pushing himself to the edge… but Olruggio will always be there to care for him and give him some warmth🥺💕

That keyboard is a sin against humanity

MANY of you would have unquestioningly went along with the Salem witch trials.

Nothing reminds me what a goddamn miracle modern medicine is more so than hearing stories about people who contracted the black plague in the 21st century and were prescribed antibiotics for it.

Like yeah man you got the disease that wiped out half of Europe, like, a couple separate times within written history, and we have no clue how many times before that. To cure it you have to take 14 pills and drink lots of juice. You’re gonna feel kind of crummy for a while. It’s vitally important you take all 14 pills.

Okay so far with the watchmen the users abilities seem to like be foils of their user’s main character flaws like:

Rudo's ability is to touch objects' souls and bring out their full potential, but he has chronic pain in his hands; his touch has not hurt, but pain can desensitize you to all other emotions, and so he doesn’t know how people think or feel, only what an object needs to be.

Amos's ability brings to mind happy memories and memories of love, but she has not been fortunate enough to have happy memories. She has never felt truly, honestly loved and protected.

Gountess’s ability is to connect others, but he isolated himself. He was born with a faulty heart, and that includes the emotional one. He has cut off his emotions for so long to focus on his goal. He only realized the problem when it was much too late.

Tamsy’s ability alters perception and memories and because of that no one sees him, no one knows his true nature, no one really knows who Tamsy is even the audience is left partially in the dark but it’s clear he knows his world view is different from everyone elses he can never be open and honest because his personality is so reprehensible that he’d never be able to complete his goal. He wouldn’t be able to be who he is inside and get close to Rudo.

Zodyl's abilities are still a mystery, but with the little pieces we know about him, and how he seems to be associated with the sense of taste, we can assume the ability uses food in some way we don’t know about yet. It hungers, but Zodyl only wants revenge, and then he is nothing; he’s a husk of a man. He will never be sated.

So, with that in mind, I’m really curious about what the next chapter is and how Enjin, if he is a watchman user, fits into this. The chapter title The Sixth Sense and what little we know about Enjin leads me to believe that he represents intuition, and his fatal flaw of sorts is his ability to read the situation, but he is always unknowable.

I think with the head wound we see Enjin have, I think he may have like actual chunks of time missing from his past. Pair that with the fact he doesn’t really know who his parents are, and other things make me believe Enjin doesn’t really understand who he is as a person, and because of that, no one else knows what’s going on with him either. He’s always withdrawn and always a mystery that’s hard to read and parse out, and because of that, no one has been able to connect with him, but that’s just my guess for now.

Either way it’s fantastic writing and I love Urana for doing it.

Like, I know people say the Watchmen fill the holes within people's souls, almost like the Watchmen are the givers, and their users are the Jinki. It's just really cool and interesting.

Like the instruments are pouring in their anima to fulfill a person, it’s very interesting, and I love what that says about everyone’s psyche. It gives these people the tools to achieve what they want, but only in an objective way. It’s heartbreaking and beautiful, like I love it and what it says, like an object can’t love a person the way a person loves an object. Still, they are tools and are therefore trying to give their users the tools to fulfill their desires, but from a place that doesn’t understand empathy or humanity. I think that’s cool.

— ZODYL TYPHON HUSBAND HEADCANONS!

Tries hard on shielding you from his Raider business (you're aware of what he does, just not the fullest extent of it)

The most nonchalant man you'd ever met—you had to memorise every twitch of his facial muscle to learn what he is feeling

"Honey, are you feeling down?" "...Yes. How did you know, darling?" "I saw your jaw clench."

Likewise, he has you memorised as well. He knows what you want or need even before the mere thought could form in your head. Trust that he also have your schedule planted in his mind too

Even though he wants to wear his wedding band on his finger, he fears of losing it during missions or—heaven forbid—an enemy spots it and learns about you

He limits the Raider's interactions with you—a firm believer of work-life balance (ONLY in relation to you though)

"Hey, Boss! Can we meet your spouse again—" "No. And if you ask again, I'll kill you."

He always make sure to properly cleanse his mouth before going home to you. Once, he forgotten and tried to kiss you, only to be coldly rejected

"Darling... why did you push me away? Do you not love me anymore? Am I not your husband anymore?" "Honey, you're being dramatic again. I just know you haven't cleaned that mouth of yours." "I failed as your husband. I apologise deeply—"

Loves going on errands with you. Grocery runs, morning walks, or even gift-shopping, he'll be glued to your side all the time

When you two walk, he’s always making sure you’re on the safer side of the street. He doesn’t have an arm wrapped around you, but his eyes are always searching for potential threats

Once, you tried to host a homemade meal to the Raiders. He allowed it (he cannot say no to you) but instantly deflated when all of them left

"Honey... you're pouting again." "I am not..." "Yes, you are. Don't tell me you're jealous?" "Nonsense. There is nothing to be jealous about. I am your husband—they are no one."

No one is allowed to mention your existence when they are out on missions—he will know if you were exposed

He brings you fake flowers every time he gets home even a second too late. He murmurs apologies in your ear as he brings you close for a hug

"Darling, I've missed you deeply. I apologise for being late, something came up with our missions." "It's alright, honey. Welcome back home!"

He swears up and down that once he destroys the Sphere, he'll bring you somewhere close to finally see a starry night sky

"I will clear the sky for the stars to shine for you, [Name]."

request from tiktok! this was initially going to be a boyfriend headcanon, but then boom, i wrote the wedding ring and the rest is history lmao. still can’t believe this man is only 23, but then again, if you have his life you gonna be aging up big time

[captainjonnitkessler]

Babysitting a toddler is a lot like being the narration in a point-and-click adventure game. Watching him knock on the doors of empty rooms and saying "hmm. I don't think anyone's in there". Watching him attempt to use [spoon] on [cat] and saying "I don't think those things go together". Watching him throw a cup of water onto the floor and just commenting "the floor is wet now" when he looks up at me to see if I approve.

My ford got a hydrolic module with a jumping bean in it

[mushroommargo]

bro are drivers insane? That's like the second car-related post on Tumblr with the amount of hatred literally not seen under any other type of post ever

[ask-pacman]

Yeah the jumping bean makes the car jump over/across

[weshallbekind]

Road rage is so bad because it's the same rage anyone would feel at a computer working wrong, (slow internet, program not doing what you want, whatever), but it raises the stakes to "possibly literally life or death".

[ask-pacman]

Basically it works by containing the power of the mexigan jumping bean to fire the cylanders inside of the wheel hydraulics and create a massive jumping force

Rudo smells dust 🥲

[becquerel]

i love when people on the internet get denied stuff and you find the most innovative minds of the generation dedicated to making goddamn sure other people get what they want come hell or high water

Okay but I get this. All of you worms who have things blocked on your wifi or whatever and have IbisPaint this is how you do it

Open IbisPaint go to a canvas (any canvas, or make. a new one)

Select the font tool (if you don’t know what or where that is, press the tool icon (normally a paint brush or eraser) and press the T button

From there you should be able to create a text box (writing is not important…). Find the font button and add a new font. I can’t remember what it’s called but you’ll know when you see it

It’ll automatically search for you “free fonts.” Do not follow this. Your app is misdirecting you. Instead search up whatever it is you’re looking for in the search bar, and that should work

Knowledge should not be trapped behind bars, bend and break them until you can grasp it
