“Takua of Nova”:
An adventurous rascal with a heart of gold and armor of light. Armor’s stolen, of course, since nobody is going to condone his decision to travel the galaxy by himself to discover what happened to the Six that were left behind during the war for Mata Nui. Whether it kills him or not, Takua’s going to be the first to know the story behind the Six and spread it across the universe somehow.

Shark week is coming to an end, and to cap off this wonderful week, we’re giving you enough shark facts to last you the whole year!
Sharks have roamed the oceans since well before the days of the dinosaurs and remain among the world’s most effective hunters.
Sharks originated some 450 million years ago, and many species have changed little in the past 100 million years.
Unlike most fishes, they have no gas bladder to keep them afloat, so many species must move constantly to keep from sinking.
Their skeletons are made of light, tough cartilage instead of bone, and many have large, oil-filled livers that make them more buoyant.
Sharks’ mouths bristle with rows of teeth which are constantly replaced by new ones as they become broken or worn.
The first vertebrates to develop an immune system, sharks may have greater immunity to cancer than humans, and they are being studied for potential new cancer medications and antibiotics.
Most sharks are no more dangerous than other fishes. Humans, however, have proved extremely dangerous to sharks.
Of the roughly 340 species of sharks, most never attack people. Fewer than 100 people per year are bitten by sharks, and less than 15 percent of these attacks are fatal.
Humans kill 50 to 100 million sharks each year, placing entire populations and some species at serious risk.
As top ocean predators, sharks maintain the balance of other populations.
Growing consumption of shark meat and fins, and the popularity of shark fishing for sport, have caused some shark species to decline by more than 90 percent, threatening the sharks’ survival and disrupting ocean ecosystems.
Some sharks lay eggs, but most bear live young, as mammals do. Some species remain pregnant for over two years – longer than any other vertebrate.
Sharks typically bear just three to 12 pups, and many do not reproduce until age 30, making it hard for them to recover when millions are killed by humans.

This is one of my favorite posts because that cat’s fucking name is fucking meatloaf
Let us just appreciate that this person’s dad didn’t know when they would be home and so he couldn’t plan for them to be able to join the family for dinner, but he knew with no doubts that dear sweet Meatloaf staying in that exact position for hours was an absolute in this scenario. Truly, that cat was named well.
one of my favorite posts on tumblr over the course of 5 fucking years.. clearly i need a life
Meatloaf is a reliable cat and did not steal the money for selfish reasons. A rare friend.
I love Meatloaf. :)
Bless Meatloaf

To all my freshman babies who are panicking right now about how much your college textbooks cost: Yeah, you’re right, that’s some highway robbery. No, you don’t have to lie down and take it. You have options. Follow my advice and fly on your own debt free wings.
1. Forgoe the bookstore entirely. Sometimes you can get a good deal on something, usually a rental, but it’s usually going to be considerably more expensive to go through official channels. Outsmart them, babies.
2. Does your syllabus call for edition eight? Get edition seven. Old editions are considered worthless in the buyback trades, so they sell for dirt cheap, no matter how new they are. It’s a gamble, sure; there might be something in edition eight you desperately need, but that never happened to me. However, I’ve only ever pulled this stunt for literature/mass comm/religious studies books, so I don’t know it would work in the sciences.
3. Thriftbooks.com, especially for nonfiction and fiction. Books are usually four or five dollars unless they’re really new, and shipping is 99 cents unless you buy over 10$ in books, in which case shipping is free.
4. Bigwords.com. It will scan every textbook seller on the internet for the lowest price available, and will do the same to find the highest price when you try to sell your books back at the end of term. Timesaver, lifesaver.
5. In all probability, your library offers a service called interlibrary loan which is included in your tuition. This means if your library doesn’t carry a book you can order it for free from any library nationwide in your library’s network and it will be shipped to you in a number of days. Ask a librarian to show you how to search for materials at your library as well as though interlibrary loan; you’ll need to master this skill soon anyway. If you get lucky you can just have your required reading shipped to you a week before you need to start reading, then renew vigorously until you no longer need to item. I’m saving over 100$ on a History of Islam class this way.
You professors might side-eye you for bringing an old edition or a library copy, but you just smile right back honey, because you can pay your rent and go clubbing this month. You came here to win. So go forth and slay.
Can I add to this? 6. Find PDFs of your book to store on your computer. I managed to find an up-to-date edition of my textbook for sociology by doing this, and other books for other classes. It may be risky to have to look high and low for them, but it’s a godsend trust me
don’t even think about pulling number 1 for math classes. they change problems and examples between editions. get your butt to Amazon the SECOND you know what book you need. the earlier the better. put in the ISBN number and you’ll get the right edition. buy it used. you don’t need that damn CD. buy it used. I used to get two hundred dollar math books for twenty bucks.
for the record I would recommend a lot of caution with math/science/psych books, the editions generally have a lot of changes to them (also email your professors; I had one explicitly tell us to buy an older edition bc the publisher made a new one every year regardless of if there were any changes. and they understand books cost a lot so they’re generally on board with you saving money; another professor actually had a student who managed to get a free pdf of the textbook share it with the whole class)
one time i tried to get a previous edition for a humanities class and there were like 10+ stories that weren’t included that the teacher referenced often so make sure that there’s not a huge discrepancy in content also if your uni uses ~custom textbooks~ like mine does for entry level courses then you my friend are fucked
Also, amazon allows textbook rentals-at the last institution I taught at, an Amazon rental was literally ¼ the price of the predatory bookstore rental. I flat out told my students they should sign up for the free student Prime and get their books that way and I made a point not to assign anything from the textbook for a week and a half so they’d have time for delivery, because there is no excuse for that; students don’t have the money.
You can also, if you know who the instructor is, ask for text ISBNs and whether edition is crucial, whether ebook versions are acceptable (widespread abuses in class mean many profs don’t want your laptops there in which case…), etc., and you need to know that before you drop $$$, whether you need a particular copy with an online code blah blah-your professor will know, and if they aren’t a jerk, they’ll *want* to make their course financially accessible as long as it doesn’t compromise their ability to use the materials they feel are appropriate.

my favorite thing i’ve learned in college is that way back in ancient china there was this poet/philosopher guy who wrote this whole pretentious poem about how enlightened he was that was like “the eight winds cannot move me” blahblahblah and he was really proud of it so he sent it to his friend who lived across the lake and then his friend sends it back and just writes “FART” (or the ancient Chinese equivalent) on it and he was SO MAD he travels across the lake to chew his friend out and when he gets there his friend says “wow. the eight winds cannot move you, but one fart sends you across the lake”
i googled this bc i desperately wanted this to be real, and guess what…it is.
the dude’s name was su dongpo (also known as su shi). his original poem went like this:
稽首天中天，
毫光照大千，
八風吹不動，
端坐紫金蓮
(Humbly bowed my head below all skies Minutest lights shine through my deepest bounds Immovable by strong winds from eight sides Upon purplish gold lotus I seated straightly by the low mound) (x)
on which his friend wrote “放屁” (fart, literally), and you know the rest.
(here’s a chinese source for the skeptics)
this is even funnier because just writing “fart” out of the blue sounds really stupid and random in english, but in chinese, fart (fang pi) is used as a common reply to, well, people talking out of their ass. kind of like how we’d use “bullshit” in context.

Fun Facts About The Nightmare Before Christmas Movie pt 1
Reasons why this is still one of the coolest films ever.
This film is the reason I’m a filmmaker and Tim burton is my favorite director
Also a fun fact:
Tim Burton did not direct The Nightmare Before Christmas
Henry Selick never gets the credit he deserves for this movie, and Coraline (which he also directed) never gets the credit it deserves for being total genius.
Stop motion in general deserves more credit
