Me when my husband (Library of Congress with the Journals of the Continental Congress) has left for war (is having technical difficulties) and I don't know if I shall survive (I am slightly inconvenienced)
[header ID: a picture of the Sixth Doctor and Peri Brown from Doctor Who. Peri is holding a fan with a flowery pattern in front of her and is smiling at the viewer. she has short brown hair in a bob and is wearing a headband. her head is slightly tilted left, towards the Doctor next to her. the Doctor is looking at the viewer with an almost displeased look on his face. his body is facing Peri, and he is raising his back arm in the air. the Doctor has short blonde curly hair. he is wearing a multi coloured waistcoat, with a white shirt that has a red question mark on the collar, and a blue and white polka dot patterned cravat. behind them is a building /end ID]
[icon ID: a picture of Sergeant Benton from Doctor Who. he has short brown hair and is wearing a UNIT uniform, which is a green army jacket, paired with a red rope on his only visible shoulder, a white shirt, and a sort of grey ish coloured tie. he is taking his khaki beret off of his head as he looks up, with a distressed look on his face. there have been two swirls edited onto his face, the first one being coloured to match the aromantic flag, and the second one being coloured to match the asexual flag /end ID]

people trying to draw parallels between Pluto's dwarf planethood and gender transition are doing the same annoying thing that 9-planet-truthers are doing when they say Pluto's a planet--ascribing emotions to a ball of rock, water, various ices, and tholins.
Pluto is not happy to be trans (dwarf planet) or sad to be a dwarf planet instead of a planet. Pluto's emotions do not matter to the question. What does matter is that you're implicitly framing anyone suggesting that Pluto is a planet as transphobic.
Yes, some people think Pluto is a planet for stupid reasons, because of nostalgia for what they learned in school or because they think Pluto is sad. But Pluto can be considered a planet, by reasonable criteria. The IAU definition of a planet was hand crafted to exclude Pluto (and Eris). It is not a truly scientific classification. It also excludes the large moons of the Earth and the gas giants, for no good reason. And exoplanets, of which we know thousands. But I'm not going to take the time to relitigate this question here. A friend of mine gave this topic adequate nuance in this post. (last two reblogs)
Nevermind that the least interesting question you could ever ask about an object is whether or not it's a planet, but that's all people ever talk about when it comes to Pluto.
Look at this thing. There's no other known planetary object in the solar system that looks quite like this. It has a massive flat of nitrogen glaciers engaged in solid state convection, with floating mountain-sized icebergs of water ice atop it. It has sand dunes made of methane ice. It has gunky organic tholins that are thought to be seasonal. It has cryo-tectonics, maybe even cryo-volcanism. It's even thought to have an internal liquid water ocean like some of the ice moons of the gas giants.

and its binary companion, Charon, has some interesting cryotectonics going on too, and a reddish polar cap of tholins made by photochemical processes working on methane gathered from Pluto's exosphere over billions of years.
Pluto's got four additional minor planet sized moons, Styx, Nix, Kerberos, and Hydra. Because they can't tidally lock to both Pluto and Charon at the same time, they have chaotic rotation. Their day length is not fixed. The sun could rise in the east and set in the north!
And look at this gorgeous image. Pluto's mountains, including a suspected cryovolcano, as well as a part of Sputnik Planitia--the nitrogen glacier field--and the hazy thin atmosphere of the planet, incredibly tall due to having less gravity to hold it down to the surface.
I like to think the Doctor did become the Valeyard offscreen after the events of The End of Time part 2 but then he regenerated into Matt Smith and just chose to never address that ever again.
its funny to me how warmups for instruments generally sound nice and pretty. like just basic scales or chords. the exercises i do on my guitar could be mistaken for actual music at times.
and then vocal warmups are shit like. bark like a seal. grunt like a thwomp from mario 64. now sing the melody but instead of the lyrics youre saying 'moo moo mee mee mah mah' even the scales you gotta moo mee mah through that shit and its just so goofy every time. and this is why im not a singer
hey i saw you reblogged that post… just letting you know that op was recently saw trapped and won’t say what it was for which means it was probably something really bad… so um yeah just wanted to let you know so you can block them
media trope that makes me want to throw up and cry is when a character realises there's no way they're making it out of a situation in one piece. and in a single moment they accept it and turn to their distraught loved ones with The Smile. you know The Smile. sickening
