For @owl---feathers, 🧛‍♀️🍷⚰️ and “Clark wakes up alive”.

Clark slants his eyes towards Dubbilex, who’s already looking at them with a blank expression, or at least an expression Clark doesn’t know how to read. Maybe Conner would, if it came to it. 

Clark really doesn’t know enough about his brother’s brothers, and can’t really excuse it. He should know if Conner would be able to read Dubbilex’s expression. He should know if the G-gnome Conner’s holding is someone he should recognize. 

He should have remembered Match, if nothing else. 

“Why shouldn’t we wake him?” he asks Dubbilex, mostly because pretending not to know the answer seems . . . simpler. At least for now. At least until he knows how or why all this even happened. 

He should’ve stopped to figure that out before coming for Conner, but–

He couldn’t.

There’s a Freya Marske Yuri on Ice fic with aerial acrobatics??? 👀

ohohoho oh i get to spread my FAVORITE yoi fic ✨✨🥺😈

Stargazer - sci-fi world far in the future where an aerial sport called ballisting has been the pastime of nobility for centuries—yuuri, however, is a self-taught commoner who catches viktor's eye thru a stream, lovely shit ensues, i love this fic soooo much 😭

Bonj-aloha! I think I’ve tracked down the right person, but did you make the motorcity lyricvid set to We Almost Lost Detroit? I joined this fandom ten years late with a sideblog and wild enthusiasm, and I was trying to find if maybe you posted the video to tumblr too, but, well, tumblr’s search function being what it is, I couldn’t be sure that I hadn’t missed it somehow!

oh wow, hi! ahhhhhh oh my goodness what a blast from the past, yep that was me! ;_; and yes I DID post it to tumblr, while we were all in our "mourning period" after the show got canceled lmao. here's the original post for you!

and for my fellow fandom stragglers in the tag, I'll go ahead and post the video again haha. the song is VERY fitting.

Essek Thelyss is an arrogant, cold, brilliant wizard trying to play political games with a group of people who mostly respond to his intimidation schtick with teasing. Essek Thelyss is a wet cat and a poor little meow meow and utterly out of his element. Essek Thelyss is horrified to find that he actually wants these people to like him. (Essek Thelyss is *redacted for spoilers*) Critical Role is too long to recommend to someone unless they’re prepared for hundreds of hours of dungeons and dragons, but!!! The campaign with Essek is going to be animated at some point!!! So maybe the barrier to entry will be lower maybe in two years or so ^^;

mannnNN that is my SHIT tho ugh ahsjdkfkf i have tried w critical role but i got spoiled on mollymauk's plotline and get too sad abt him to Endure™, but.... more soaking wet pathetic men........... quandries..............

Current physics grad student here warning you that if you choose this path please please please have a particular research group in mind with a professor who you know and like (or who has grad students whose judgement you trust) because I went into this with absolutely no idea what I wanted to do and. uh. picked a random professor who has never heard of positive reinforcement. Not gonna lie, this is kind of hell. Also general exams or quals are kind of hell, depending on your particular institution. Don’t get me wrong; I love physics - but oh my god. If anything were ever designed to suck the joy out of exploring the mathematical underpinnings of reality itself, it’s a bad physics grad school experience. (I do have friends at other institutions who are THRIVING and love it, so if you find a good group and it’s for you, it can be joyous!)

oh damn this is GOOD ADVICE thank you omfg << and also augh i'm so? sorry?? that sounds horrible and soul-sucking!!!!!!

Did you know that platypuses have electroreceptive sensors in their bills? I fell into a wikipedia rabbit hole regarding animals (mostly fish) that can sense things either by passively picking up electric signals from their nerves firing or by generating their own electric field and sensing perturbations in conductivity nearby!

whoa this is WILD wtf, i had no idea electroreception was a thing and now i'm looking at it and like it makes evolutionary sense but also this is witchcraft, fish are witches confirmed

this does make me think about migratory birds sensing the earth's magnetic fields to get where they're going (which i think is still in the earlier realm of being scientifically confirmed, or at least understood, but STILL) i love to learn about Beafts And Creatvres

I cannot for the life of me remember if I read a fic - or maybe it was one of your posts?? - about the Great Maza Pun War. Is that a thing that sounds familiar, or was this something my brain dreamed up and I never got around to writing?

Also, congratulations on your new official status 😂

holy shit I have Not heard of this...the Great Maza Pun War tell me more (link if you find it??)
