man I've gotta roast the chair in Ansem's study publicly. did it with some friends a couple years ago but I got reminded of it so here we are (Ienzo for scale. remember that Ienzo is not tall)

like. what the hell is that. no cushions? tall, straight back? blocky rectangle armrests and flat slab seat? ON WHEELS????? the base is too tiny and the back is too large so we determined that this thing is not actually made out of marble like it appears (WHICH??? WHY THE FUCK WOULD YOU MAKE IT LOOK LIKE THAT???) and has to be hollow for it to be sitting upright. the Organization's thrones in the Round Room are Like That because of Ansem

also that table sucks too. it looks like it's coming up to above Ienzo's knees maybe so it's shorter than the average desk which means it's even worse for Ansem, the guy using it all the time

there's a cutout for the chair to go but there's no space under the table for legs so his legs HAVE to be hitting the desk walls constantly. look at the way he has to sit to use the table

Ansem this fucking sucks can you use your The Wise to get yourself something more ergonomic

Saw my old tags. Thinking about this again:

#then they call each other fools #and Xemnas says the thing about how he took Ansem's research farther than Ansem ever dared #but it's in reference to the Org chairs #"Unlike you our chairs were properly spaced apart. They have lifts and proper back support. As it always should have been" #I'm sorry this has been sitting in my head #ever since I saw this #don't know how likely l am to get around to drawing it #but it's been giving me a good laugh

[the-yapperrrr]

"can you use your The Wise" is probably going to be a permanent fixture of my vocabulary now

More context:

the first osprey is the father, the one that comes later is the mother.

ospreys are not eagles, they're ospreys

ospreys only eat fish, that's why they don't register this starling as possible food

the starling got home safely

the starling was not trying to eat the eggs, it was mostly curious and you can see it trying to hop under the osprey every time the osprey tries to sit down again--this is because the starling is still a baby and has the instinct to get under an adult for warmth, even though it mostly has its feathers. this scares the osprey because that is a Foreign Creature near its eggs.

at the end of the video you can see the ospreys starting to turn the eggs. birds do this so the yolk and/or embryo don't stick to the shell of the egg, which is bad for the egg's health.

ospreys have eyes adapted to seeing beneath the surface of the water!

Woke up this morning briefly desensitized to the language we use to describe time, and burst out laughing over an email saying there's a meeting at "2." That's literally just a number, not even a very big one. What’s next, cleaning the break room at “3"?

[roseboy-in-training]

english speakers will laugh at german, the slavic languages or georgian for having some awful consonant sequences, and then say “sixths”

[the-yapperrrr]

It's not because I want to, I'm fully aware of the travesty that is my language. "Sixths" is awful and evil

its difficult having a favorite character who you have absolutely no attraction to but a lot of other people do. i love him. not like that. i dont even like him i hate him actually. hes just really important to me. Not like that. he lives in my brain. No not like that. hes just there and i think about him a lot. hes disgusting and i hate him. hes very fascinating to me. i understand him. hes not sexy at all though. a lot of people say that and i disagree but to each their own. hes my favorite and i want to kill him

[the-yapperrrr]

Legolas. I love him but Not Like That. I want to show him memes from my phone

the lotr movies got eowyn wrong. yes the fighting was cool. "i am no man" scene was badass. but the point of eowyn is not "woman wants to fight, isn't allowed to, eventually gets to fight and that's her happy ending."

the point of eowyn is "woman is depressed, wants to be free/respected/seen/known/loved, is put in a (metaphorical) box with the other women, wants to fight bc it will bring her either Respect or Death."

she kills the dang Witch King. she fights and wins and it's awesome and satisfying. but fighting is NOT her happy ending. it's her sad ending. she ends up wounded and broken, like everyone else in this stupid WWI-trauma story. Like Frodo. Like Faramir.

I cannot emphasize enough that Faramir meets her AFTER she is UNABLE to fight (the only thing she thought gave her value and honor) and STILL admires and respects and loves her. Eowyn is more than a fighter. Eowyn is more than what she does. And for someone like me who's disabled from doing a lot of things that society expects of me, that means a lot.

To all my fellow Christians out there with same sex attraction who still believe that sex is for marriage, and that marriage is between a man and a woman; just know that I love you. I can't wish you a Happy Pride, because we are not celebrating our sin, rather we are trying to resist temptation and live life in such a way that we are drawn closer to God, but I need you to know that I love you and that I understand you.

Our fellow Christians often don't have kind words for us, and the church has yet to understand our need for ministry and companionship, so the temptation to join in and wish one another a "Happy Pride" can be strong. After all, when the church often has nothing good or helpful to say to us, we want to lean in the other direction in order to encourage one another. Because sometimes it feels like its just us against both the church and the world. But instead of celebrating disordered love, let's celebrate God's perfect love. Even if other people find our attraction repulsive and mind-boggling, He loves us for who we are and He remember's our frame. He knows that we are only dust with an innate need to be loved by one another.

So lets love each other, as brothers and sisters in Christ. Let's encourage one another. Not just toward holiness, but toward hope and happiness. Let's gather together and enjoy each other's company, telling stories and jokes that only we can appreciate. Let's celebrate God's love for us, our love for God, and our love for each other. God bless.

i wish there was a way to say "you're right, but this is really ineffective and even counterproductive messaging to anyone who doesn't already agree with you" without sounding like an asshole
