seeing all the 14-17 y/o queer kids who don’t know what v for vendetta is.... u mean the blockbuster film written by two trans women about a masked vigilante who decides to singlehandedly take down a fascist alternate version of england set in the distant year of 2020... and his driving force was getting justice for a lesbian who he never met but whose diary he found, who was separated from her wife before being killed by said fascist gov.... and it stars natalie portman.... okay

[mckitterick]

the movie is great, with amazing acting:

and the original graphic novel is phenomenal:

I highly recommend them both

and they've never been more relevant

It is to Madame Justice that I dedicate this concerto, in honor of the holiday that she seems to have taken from these parts, and in recognition of the impostor that stands in her stead.

What do you do when you're stuck in the workplace, bored but without anything to do? Well, if you're me, you make covers for the 12k fic you wrote about Booker and Joe (POV) talking about the events of the movie. Thanks @theellana for quoting this line and thus making it easier to finish the cover :D

Like poison from a wound (Gen) is available to read on AO3 :)

these are just the facts

So. Work happened. But I'm (hopefully) back! 😁

Also I'm hoping to get a vacation in the near future (cross fingers for me), so I might even be able to catch up on content I missed? 😅

(also, I'm only halfway through shadow and bone, so spoilers, beware xD)

sometimes people try to tell me that scientists are paragons of rationality and I have to break it to them that I have yet to work in a lab that didn’t have at least one weird secret shrine in it

[6-phds-and-no-sense]

new guy: why is all of the equipment in this room covered in toys?

me: dONn’t touch those

new guy:

me: they need the toys to function. if they don’t all have toys they get jealous.

new guy:

new guy:

me: when something breaks just take the wizard and wave it around for a while. they seem to like that.

In Taiwan we have a special brand of snacks named 乖乖 (literally means “well behaved” but in a casual way like when one’s compliment a child or a pet of being good) that has green package.

It has become the lucky charm in the IT industry because engineers believe it will make machine acting good (like the name of the snack) and stay in green light (like the color of the snack’s package) when a 乖乖 is put on top of a server.

It is the only food allowed in a server room and the biggest semicondoctor company in Taiwan (which is also the biggest worldwide) even commissioned the snack factory to make a customized version with blessing on the package.

This is how a server room is blessed by 乖乖. You put at least one on top of each server. It’s important that the engineers change them before the expire date because legend says the snack looses it’s power after expire date.

You’ll hear engineers swearing up and down that their server room crushed down the one time they forgot to change the snack.  Or some newbie ate the forbidden snack put on top of their server and caused a disastrous crush down.

The 乖乖 religion later spread to all people who want their machine to act nice. In the lab we put 乖乖 on ultra-low freezer (you really don’t want it to drop dead along with your 2 years’ worth of sample/data), mass spectrometer etc.

When Taiwan’s about to launch the first self made satellite in 2017, the develop team even put 乖乖 around the satellite model to prey for a successful launch (it did). This shit is real.

We have a can of corn in our control room because one time an experiment succeeded while that can was present and now nobody is allowed to throw it away.

Darth Maul is just the funniest Star Wars character to me. Like. There was this one-off villain with no personality, one incredible fight scene, one of the objectively stupidest names in all of Star Wars (which, y’know, is an achievment) and one of the coolest villain designs ever put to film.

And after they’d killed him off, everyone realised what a bottomless pit of wasted potential he was, and they started putting him into everything ever, no matter how little sense it made.

#sidenote: ‘somehow maul returned’ would have been a million times funnier than your pal friendpatine
