your shoulders are so delicate. stop fucking them up, they're not gonna heal right without magic or whatever the fuck
also, stop fucking pulling out whatever you've been stabbed with, that keeps the blood in
fuck you and your melon husk ceo + scientist + whatever shtick. there literally isn't enough fucking time for even half an ass per career
i can't deal w faux-academics anymore bc anyone who's not 1) busy writing papers 2) feeling guilty about not writing papers 3) leading projects is a grifter
i was curious and started digging through the notes of that job au poll and found what someone has noted as The Best Lawyering Fic for ace attorney [🔗]
almost screamed fr at the airport at this line ☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️
okay okay okay so i started reading batman: failsafe and like, so fun. different type of fun than batgirls
art is amazing. jorge jimenez, chef's kiss
compilation of reactions and minor aero engr ranting during read through under cut
yeah you wacko 🥰something something spoiler alert who you really are and how do you fight something that knows "you" by leveraging the matryoshka dolls of "self" that comprise you as an individual
i fucking cackled at this, thank you penguin
i want to eat the art so bad. but also bruce. you need to be maced. i know i know he goes into the whole dilemma of how he's a mire that sucks them into this life where they can't be happy, even though they were able to be happier than him, at a first glance. but also to choose vigilantism is like choosing service, there are sacrifices to be made to be "good"--you necessarily can't have everything. idk i just like looking at how it touches everything in their lives, no matter how well you mask and compartmentalize (bc even that ability to compartmentalize is through this bullshit!)
cutie 🥰 also i too would look at purple batman like 🤨
i was like "how did no one see this coming. he's just like that. why did clark even need to ask what bruce's contingency for himself was." and then i read a little further and realized alfred was dead. RIP bruce's last tether to rationality ig.
this is like, where the fun of these types of characters come from for me, bc i'm around all types of people nowadays who are all, at a baseline, very very clever. there are the ^ten million plots guys who plan every move, but you know they are planning every move. there are the 🙂 guys where they have vague schemes and always seem to land on their feet like a cat
it's so funny to see people try to be ten million plots when they can't even juggle one. or are worried about too many contingencies and then they make the github explode
the vague schemers that don't succeed just look like they're bumbling around blind. not as entertaining.
DICK GRAYSON PROPORTION ALERT
the superbat is WAFTING off the pages. filling my entire office space.

OKAY. now we get to the part where he fucking FALLS FROM THE MOON.
I WANT TO BEAT HIM WITH HAMMERS.
so, longtime followers of this blog, if you remember that one time i did a poll about "guess the unhinged manner in which i answered this question about newton's third law for my intro physics final"
i am better than that now. it's been ten plus years. i have a doctorate in aerospace engineering, and i design conceptual space missions for a living.
WHY AM I BEING HAUNTED BY MY PHYSICS 1A ANSWER VIA BRUCE "MOTHERFUCKING BATMAN" WAYNE
you don't nearly have enough thrust nor isp to do discrete impulses like that. take optimal controls, you dingnut. you can't solve a two-point boundary value problem in your head you, you----🫵🫵🫵
no, he has contingencies. he's already calculated a set of gains for the PID representing this situation and has it practiced to the millisecond.
i did not come home from a long day of work looking at trajectory code for this. literally screamed when i got to this part.
also, enjoy your re-entry dynamic pressure you fuck
you really have to wonder how does the city exist in its current state
my ill-informed headcanon: bruce lobbies the city planner's office so that they can't change the architectural style, gets buy-in for stylistic cohesion. if there's ever a glass and concrete dildo-esque skyscraper, the nightlife band together to tp and egg it and no one wants to develop for it
What’s the last book you read? I’m in need of recs 🥹
last fiction book was project hail mary, which i highly recommend
nonfiction, i have been working through 'how to win at chess' by gothamchess bc i like chess but i hate playing with people (i like puzzles) and a lot of lessons don't stick w me. but this time i've picked up enough opening principles that i was solid during a drunken game at a wedding, so yay
i was also reading the murderbot diaries, binged everything to 'system collapse' and then got tired. series is still good, but i need a short rest before picking it back up
...hm i heard good things about 'three bags full,' book that the new movie 'the sheep detectives' is based on. so might do that
