getting characters into world-endingly intense codependent queerplatonic relationships is literally what life is all about. it is literally what we were put here on this earth to do

Send me to Mars with party supplies before next august 5th

No guys you don’t understand.

The soil testing equipment on Curiosity makes a buzzing noise and the pitch of the noise changes depending on what part of an experiment Curiosity is performing, this is the way Curiosity sings to itself.

So some of the finest minds currently alive decided to take incredibly expensive important scientific equipment and mess with it until they worked out how to move in just the right way to sing Happy Birthday, then someone made a cake on Curiosity’s birthday and took it into Mission control so that a room full of brilliant scientists and engineers could throw a birthday party for a non-autonomous robot 225 million kilometres away and listen to it sing the first ever song sung on Mars*, which was Happy Birthday.

This isn’t a sad story, this a happy story about the ridiculousness of humans and the way we love things. We built a little robot and called it Curiosity and flung it into the star to go and explore places we can’t get to because it’s name is in our nature and then just because we could, we taught it how to sing.

That’s not sad, that’s awesome.

*this is different from the first song ever played on mars (Reach For The Stars by Will.I.Am) which happened the year before, singing is different from playing

Not really a hazard sign but Ive been enamoured with it from the moment I saw it. (A loose translation would be: DID YOU KNOW? Outside of its undoubted aesthetic appeal, this art piece has a function! It can be used to clean the toilet bowl. Remarkable, isn't it?)

has anyone considered that it was probably her house too. where else was she supposed to put her chintz?

They fuck on the floor out to protect her collection of antique furniture. You can't keep it real if you're worried about staining your boyfriend's wife's favorite ottoman that you carried home from the flea market for her.

and this is why baseball is the best sport (see also: these baseball sidequests)

[wowwforever]

how could you post all this and not include that Matt Hilton (bee guy) got a baseball card out of this event

[bogkeep]

there's something so deeply dystopian to me how tech companies don't understand that a forced convenience is not a convenience at all. i'm sure autocorrect is helpful for many, but a function that forcibly changes my actual written words and punctuation is taking away my language. photo filters can be nice but i need to choose using them myself or else i have lost the ability to take the picture i want. i don't want a machine to draw or write for me. taking away the option for me to do things manually feels like violence!!!! all this talk of endless opportunity, why are you RESTRICTING me

fellatio sounds like a supporting shakespeare character rather than oral sex on a penis to be honest
