Can we just talk about the contrast in color grading in PHM. The space scenes are filled with warm, cozy and earth tones while the Earth scenes are bleak and desaturated. Space then feels more like Grace's home because it's where he finds his purpose.

"humans are space orcs" this and "humans are the jack-of-all-trades race" that and "humans are the ones with a reputation for trying to fuck everything" and etc but you know what I don't see too often?

humans are the moms

compared to other species on earth, humans have a really outsized "protect baby" instinct. you give a human a thing and tell them it's actually a baby thing and many humans will suddenly develop a complete and total aversion to harming it, even if it's like, a writhing mass of slimy tentacles in no way reminiscent of human infants

cats domesticated us by figuring out that they could leave their kittens with us when they went out hunting and come back and probably still have the same number as before they left. there is a decent chance that wolves did the same thing

word gets around the less parenting-inclined species and they're just like, are you doing a long haul space voyage? going to have to lay some eggs in the course of the trip? take a few humans with you. yeah they'll just start training the young and keeping from them climbing into the machinery themselves you don't even have to find specialists. I know a guy who budded unexpectedly on a freight hauler halfway through a four year trip, and not only did the humans not eat his spawn, they set up this thing called "babysitting" where they'd take turns monitoring its survival and helping to teach it basic skills

hazard is that if you're going anywhere with xenofauna, you have higher than normal odds of the humans trying to smuggle some weird creature aboard ship, though. you gotta watch 'em. on their own homeworld their officials have to put up goddamn signs telling them not to feed dangerous wildlife or try to touch the babies. most of 'em do understand the regulations and about potential bio hazards but there always seems to be at least one that loses their goddamn minds because some avian chick got caught in a mudslide or something

Underrated hilarious element of A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms is that. Dunk's name isn't even Duncan. It's actually, literally just Dunk! he just panicked when Egg went "Ser Dunk. That’s no name for a knight. Is it short for Duncan?"

And now other people like Raymun are calling him Duncan and he's gonna be recorded in HISTORY as Duncan. And. His name is just fucking Dunk. That's it.

And this is also book canon, btw.

imagine netflix says 'Alright fuckers, you win. Here's your secret ninth episode of Stranger Things' and you click on it and it's the secret good episode of Sherlock

Im at work and nobody knows that im painting Doris from Shrek in Pre-Raphaelite style on my ipad.

[pereczke]

In case anyone thought I was lying, here is the proof!

My reference was Hanging the Mistletoe by Dante Gabriel Rossetti (Its hard to match with their skill but that lady reminded me of Doris very much)

[broodygaming]

It's the smallest thing maybe but it's funny to me Sunrise on the Reaping has given me another reason to dislike Gale.

Thinking of Madge on reaping day, wearing her nice dress and Gale giving her shit for it. Like she has a choice. Like she has say. Like it's her fault who she was born to. It's such an interesting example of class vs culture wars. This idea that the people up the road who have a nice house are the enemy and not the faceless people thousands of miles away who profit on their poverty.

Thinking of Maysilee who was very conscious of the way she dressed. Who liked looking nice and dressing up. Who is Madge's aunt that she never met. Who Madge heard stories of growing up about her moms twin sister who always loved fashion and knew the importance of masking and the power of how you present to people. Don't let them treat us like animals.

And when Madge lifts her head and says "I want to look my best if I go to the Capitol" and Gale has the audacity to scoff at her.

It also speaks to how quickly history is lost. He probably doesn't even know her aunt died in the games. Doesn't care. You never ever ever know what hurt people are carrying. What their history is. What their familial struggle has been. Don't punch down. Don't punch sideways. Don't even punch up. Break the chain and destroy the person holding the reins.

SotR is a realisation. A realisation that the rebellion didn’t start with Katniss. That all the people we see supporting her or helping her have all been wanting to fight but they’ve been failing. That there weren’t merely “rumours” of a revolution but there were many active plans playing out and failing.

It’s a reminder that the perfect Hunger Games we saw in the first hg book was an illusion because we had Katniss as our narrator. We didn’t have Haymitch, hell, we didn’t even have someone like Peeta because these people played the games. Katniss didn’t.

Katniss was introduced to us as a mad, simple, naive girl who literally only survived because of others. She didn’t know how much her taking Prim’s place mattered because she didn’t realise what it meant to everyone who came before her. To everyone who had heard rumours of how the last District 12 victor actually fought his games. No, Katniss had just kept her head down, hunting and providing for her family.

See, she grew up way before the Games got to her. She’d already lived through her dad’s death and watched it destroy her once lively mom. Haymitch didn’t have to go through that. Lucy Gray didn’t have to go through that. They were both angry, yes, but at the Capitol. Katniss? She was first and foremost angry at her mom. At her dad. She knew who was to blame but she had too much to do and deal with to think about that. She was already jaded in a way that the Games couldn’t touch.

Peeta? He was Haymitch. He knew what he was getting into and realised he was just on a chess board with no control. So, he adapted. He played the knight, the rook, the king, the pawn. Katniss? She just… did. Changing directions, not playing the piece she was assigned because she didn’t realise that’s what was going on. Remember her surprise at the crown twisting into two after the Games?? She was so oblivious. Until Catching Fire where everything caught up to her. Where everything so many other people had been waiting and working for caught up to her.

SotR is a history book. Rewritten and edited and published as a piece of fact. SotR is a mirror and it’s a reflection of what actually happens vs what ends up being shown. SotR is the playbook of those in control of any and every kind of media that we come in touch with. SotR is a wake up call and I truly don’t know how many will see it as such.

Mad about politics again

[nudityandnerdery]

I want you to remember:

The fascists hate you too and they just will pretend otherwise until after they've killed the rest of us, before they turn on you.

Thanks to whoever tried, but I knew they'd never allow it.

Let's do it the old fashioned way. Spread it far and wide.

Lady Corbray is a merchant's daughter and the second wife of Lyonel Corbray, the Lord of Heart's Home and the head of House Corbray.

Inspired by @grandkhan221b ‘s effort to get rid of ai on the Westeros wiki.

Lady Corbray was a Gulltown merchant’s daughter who was arranged to marry Lord Corbray, which was brokered by Petyr Baelish. As of WoW, she is pregnant with the Corbray heir. Since she’s lowborn I I,aging she isn’t taking huge strides to make herself known so she blends into court through her fashion. No bright colors or flamboyant accessories. The Vale are often imagined wearing sarafans and Burgundian gowns so I married the ideas together. Gulltown is known for their seamstresses so I imagine she will support her hometown by having them embroider and sew her dresses and headdresses. Since she married up, I added pearls to her hair and hanging sleeves as well as heart shaped red stones, which I imagine are difficult to cut. This can also be a gift from her husband during her pregnancy or from her father who was a merchant from Gulltown. Her bracelet has a subtle mockingbird charm, a reminder that she is in Littlefinger’s debt.

Imagine it: It's the 5th of November, 2024 and it's election day in the US. While everyone is waiting with bated breath for the election results, Jensen Ackles, (in)famous supernatural actor, releases the tapes (unedited recordings of Castiel's confession scene made with Jensen's phone). At the same Vladimir Putin drops dead from sudden failure of body that just couldn't take all the evilness anymore. Everyone is rejoicing when, suddenly, Steven Moffat appears on TV in all countries and announces Sherlock season 5. Furthermore King Charles abolishes the monarchy on a whim, the pope twerks and the mystery of the Mary Celeste is solved once and for all. While you're processing this information, you remember the ongoing election and learn that Georgia has just turned blue and Kamala Harris is president of the United States. Now, if you can picture all this in your mind, exponentially amplify the feelings you have right now and then you might even get close to feeling what everyone was feeling on DestielPutinElectionDay, November 5th, 2020.

masks and helmets that hides someone's face in such a way that they become the face themselves my beloved

these are all creatures to me

[ancient-debris]

Angel of War, angular and strange, gleaming silver and gold, Angel of Wonder, pure and one-eyed, looking to stars new and old, Angel of Harvest, simple and hidden, bring nature's sweetness to all, Angel of Health, mysterious and fine, beacon when life starts to fall, Angel of the Deep, crooked and cage-like, guide us across the sea, Angel of Solace, protect us from evil, lead us to where we are free.

[omnybus]

Was inspired by the previous post a while back, and had been working on this on and off for a long while.

I love all of these. The angel of the the deep's wings are canvas, held up by an anchor. The angel of war's wings are blades, and its shield is a coffin. The angel of solace is a mutant, its arms deforming into wings. Geiger counter in hand, it guides us through the danger only it knows. Was this angel once a man? Corrupted now beyond hope, he can at least save others from the same fate.

[youve-got-a-roman]

this shit is so incredibly cool that i cannot and refuse to attempt to properly articulate it

[furryprovocateur]

i mean this in the gentlest way possible: you need to eat vegetables. you need to become comfortable with doing so. i do not care if you are a picky eater because of autism (hi, i used to be this person!), you need to find at least some vegetables you can eat. find a different way to prepare them. chances are you would like a vegetable you hate if you prepared it in a stew or roasted it with seasoning or included it as an ingredient in a recipe. just. please start eating better. potatoes and corn are not sufficient vegetables for a healthy diet.

[autumnday19]

Need it to be easier?

baby carrots (good dipped in ranch)

Celery sticks (add some peanut butter or cream cheese for extra flavor and protein)

Broccoli (good with ranch, cheese, or salt/pepper/butter)

Canned peas (you can microwave in a microwave-safe bowl. Good with salt/pepper/butter)

Bell peppers (cut into strips, good with cream cheese)

Canned green beans (can be microwaved in microwave-safe bowl. Good with salt/pepper/butter)

Hummus (good with crackers or tortilla chips)

Salsa (good with tortilla chips)

Guacamole (good with tortilla chips)

Need it in something?

Can't see it:

Hummus

salsa

Guacamole

Can see but disguised flavor (can usually be found store bought or done at home and use different veggies):

Dressed up ramen - just toss in some random veggies in ramen of your choice. Pretty much everything I've tried goes fine with it.

Chicken pot pie

Vegetable soup (with so many together it's hard to taste any specific one!)

Chicken noodle soup

Sweet and sour pork (haven't tried it but chicken should be fine in place of pork)

Texture problems:

Need it soft:

Hummus

Salsa

Guacamole

Cooked carrots

Avocados

Beans (personally I prefer black beans and canned baked beans)

Peas (make sure to cook well, great value brand has the softest peas I've tried)

Cooked broccoli (note: it does smell bad while cooking)

Cooked asparagus (note: also smells bad while cooking)

Cooked zucchini and squash (good together but can be eaten separate)

You can also puree most vegetables and eat with a spoon or use them as a dip

Needs to be crunchy:

Raw carrots

Raw celery

Raw bell peppers

Salad (remember you can put whatever you want in it! Even if that means no lettuce)

Most veggies are okay raw, and are usually very crunchy

Veggies google says stay crunchy after lightly cooking:

Snap peas

Brussel sprouts

Cabbage

Water chestnut

Bamboo shoots

Broad texture tips:

You can change textures by eating raw, cooking, chopping, pureeing, etc

You can separate different textures to use in different ways (ie using broccoli tops in a soup and eating the bottoms raw)

It also really helps to think about why you dislike a vegetable. I found that I am scared of green foods so I like to use those veggies for ingredients in things they are well hidden for. I've also learned that watching something while eating helps because then I'm not looking at the gross green things. When possible, I also like to get help hiding it (ie using cream of celery soup in my chicken and dumplings).

[lierdumoa]

Remember that vegetables are important because they contain nutrients that other foods don’t contain. NOT because they are low calorie.

Eating vegetables slathered in pork fat is always better than not eating vegetables. In fact fat will help you absorb the nutrients. Get those nutrients in your body by any means necessary.

[madlori]

Don't fall into the trap of thinking that you HAVE to eat vegetables raw or steamed or some other diet-culture-approved way.

The buttery, honey-drizzled vegetables you will actually eat are WAY better than the plain steamed ones you DON'T eat. It's not like the butter and honey take AWAY the vegetables' nutrients. They don't.

[unmechanism]

do we agree that celia is not doing all that for Jack out of some kind of innate motherly instinct, some need to care for that child she was given, but that she's doing it because the identity she was given as a mother has to mean everything to a person who got stripped of all she was over and over, who cannot remember if she ever was a mother in the first place and cannot afford to care, it's something to hang onto that she cannot let herself be divested of, and that's way more believable and interesting to me than just saying "she has to protect her kid"
