almost just made an absolutely cursed hr spn crossover post but sometimes things just need to stay in the drafts

[fuckrozanov]

oh my god okay fine

[junestrings]

a lot of people dont care about insect biomass collapse bc when they hear we are losing 2.5% of the insect biomass per year they just imagine the cockroach and housefly population decreasing by that much. they dont realize those are among the only ones that will remain unbothered

[junestrings]

you can make a little oasis right where you are, and it matters

[stardust-annihilation]

need electrolysis so bad but that means making Several Phone Calls and in the short term that is somehow worse than my facial hair dysphoria. fml.

Reenactor throws a spear at a drone

[supapoopa]

What a time to be alive.

[tenthcorner]

“The medieval warrior, realizing the consequences of his impulsive act, immediately approached the owner of the drone and offered to pay for the damage.

The owner of the drone was so impressed by the brilliant attack that he suggested organizing a competition for bringing down “dragons” with short spears next year.

Drone owners have another year to develop a unique “dragon-like” design for their flying machines.” (x)

[kineticpenguin]

I am 100% cooler with this knowing that the spear-thrower realized “oops maybe I shouldn’t have done that” and tried to make it right, and that the guy who the drone belonged to was cool with it

just so everyone knows, this has already been memorialized in a runestone

[stephendann]

Everything about this post blesses those involved with a +4 on their next Today is Good Day roll

[fromaliminalspace]

a rough translation of inscription on the runestone:

On the seventh day of May in the year of 2016 on hither spot the mighty warrior Ulf hath slain a dragon with his spear.

so yeah, happy birthday to this dragon-slaying event and to it only

Happy Ulf Hath Slain A Dragon With His Spear!

people will try to convince you that tolkien is about religion or about good conquering evil or about fate or various other things, but none of this is true. tolkien is actually about characters having sexual encounters out in the woods

10000 YEAR OLD ROCK ART OF GIRAFFES FOUND IN LIBYA LET'S GO

[kaylmao]

YES!!!!!!! YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[lilacchao]

of note: 95% of libya is desert, and giraffes are not found there! but this predates not just the libyan desert, but the entire sahara desert it's a part of! giraffes aren't found there any more and this is a memory of a time when things were giraffier

also apparently this rock art dates across multiple periods spanning thousands of years? but i couldn't find much detail on that so i can't give specifics

but yeah, this isn't just a memory of giraffes, but of giraffes now absent encountered by people just 2000 years (the difference between the late roman republic and today) out of the ice age, in a climate unfamiliar to any of the hundred billion people born since the desertification of the sahara drove the ancient egyptians to the nile, near the start of the agricultural revolution

the time between this and the birth of the sahara was nearly as long as the time between the birth of the sahara and now, in which all recorded history is contained, and all languages we can recognise at all - the language and culture of these people would be totally alien to current libyans, twice the difference between the oldest european language and english, predating all but libya's mountains!

and we have pictures of giraffes of the time! what a beautiful gift from such a distant past

The only thing funnier than Shane and Sasha meeting through Svetlana and Shane immediately going TARGET SIGHTED and trying to kill Sasha with his mind is Shane walking into a modeling gig and sitting down in hair and make-up next to a guy he knows is a famous European model, Alexander Something, and Shane is polite so he does the whole Hey How Are You thing and having a chat with the guy who seems friendly enough, odd accent that Shane can't really place but their shared language is French and Shane is always worse at placing accents in French.

Then Ilya comes stumbling in from parking the car, carrying Shane's water bottle and Shane's sweater and Shane's car keys and Shane's stress ball and he drops all of that.

And Shane is like, "Bigfoot over there is my husband."

And Ilya is like, "What the fuck."

And Sasha is like, "So nice to meet your husband," but crucially he is not talking to Shane. And he says it in Russian.

And Shane stays quiet while he does some mental gymnastics.

And then he yells, "You're Sasha aren't you."

And THEN Shane tries to kill Sasha with his mind.

I was lying in the leaf litter today when some moss spoke to me. "Excuse me, do you know the species of this fallen log beneath me?" asked the moss. "Hmm. No. Sorry, I'm a little fuzzy on logs," I said. "What a coincidence," said the moss. "I'm a little fuzzy on logs too."

I miss the days when, no matter how slow your internet was, if you paused any video and let it buffer long enough, you could watch it uninterrupted

[mythicalwashrag]

[useful-info-haver]

If you use Firefox, you can go to the about:config page, search for "media.mediasource.enabled" and double click on it to set it to false. After you restart Firefox, all youtube videos will load entirely even when paused! This also affects other streaming websites :)

[nyxgoddessofcandles]

There's more to do actually, now

go to About:config find media.mediasource.enabled and toggle it to false find media.cache_readahead_limit and change it to 9999 find media.cache_resume_threshold and change it to 9999

additionally if you'd prefer mp4 to webm

also in about:config, find: media.encoder.webm.enabled media.mediasource.webm.audio.enabled media.mediasource.webm.enabled media.webm.enabled and toggle them all to false

note! this will limit video to 1080p

and use https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/dont-accept-webp/ to kill WebP Fuck Google

The thing about being trans is that once you come to terms with it it’s really just whatever but The Cis People insist upon being weird about it

[what-even-is-thiss]

Once you’ve been out of the closet for a while and are surrounded by people who are at the very least neutral and respectful about the trans thing it just becomes a whatever part of your life and all these people claiming that you’re ruining society and passing laws against you kinda feels like a swat team storming into your house while you’re just eating spaghetti.

Hello Everyone, my name is Caleb and I am an indigenous trans guy currently living in the global south. "Easily accessible" medicine is not a thing in the Philippines- government aid of any sort is nonexistent here. I currently have 3 jobs, but they all do not pay well, and they are all very "unstable".

I have a life-limiting disease that will kiIl me if I am not medicated. I had a suspicious mass removed along with my entire thyroid last May, and I would like to keep living. I have severe hypothyroidism that will lead to myxedema coma, (and eventually death) if I am not medicated, and a heart deformation caused by type II diabetes

I want to keep making art for as long as I am alive, and I need continuous medication for the rest of my life to do so. (Levothyroxine, Calcium & B-complex and metformin-sitaglipin). Please consider buying my prints! ❤️‍🩹 thank you very much.

Shop gallery quality Art Prints by Caleb.

And I have a 400+ exclusive and early access archive of art on my patreon for only 1 usd a month. I add more every month!
