I have feathers. I'm not a thing though

Throwing my interests into a blog blender to make a bloothie. Tell me where my blog name comes from and I’ll post a bad joke She/her

[thethingwiththefeathers]

(My Fallen London post)

A more complete list of my fandoms, in roughly the order of how much I think I post about them:

Doctor who (onto Tennant, this guy has made me move it to the top of the list— my tag for it is #feathers watches doctor who (I will definitely forget this)

DCU (mostly Batman/Gotham)

Cosmere

Hermitcraft/Life series

Fallen London

Stardew Valley

Some British reality TV (GBB(O/S), The Traitors, Taskmaster, probably others that I’ve forgotten)

Sherlock Holmes

My spoiler policy:

I think the only big thing that I’d post about here that you could be spoiled on is Isles of the Emberdark. I’ll tag everything spoiler-y appropriately (isles of the emberdark spoilers) so if you’ve got them blocked you should be ok. I’ve read all the books in the Cosmere so there will be full spoilers for everything else.

I’ll post about various other reality shows but I’ll always tag them with spoilers.

When I add what I think or just post my random thoughts I try to use the tag #words of feathers (future me: I keep forgetting about this)

Feel free to send me asks about whatever! However, I don’t have the money for donation asks and since I’m worried about some of them not being legit I won’t have any fundraisers on here. In a similar vein, politics can get so depressing sometimes so I’ll only post about the funnier stuff. Ik only about three people will see this but I thought it would be fun to make a post like this :)

Sorry if I mess up on tumblr etiquette- I’m new so if I don’t get social interaction very well so please gently correct me

The real reason your sapient dragon character needs a "rider":

Dragons on the wing are vulnerable to being mobbed by smaller, more agile flyers, particularly in your large rear blind spot, like a bird of prey being mobbed by crows. Having a human armed with a long spear perched on your back helps to dissuade anyone from getting any funny ideas.

Breath weapons are impressive enough on the ground, but in flight they're really only good for strafing stationary targets; trying to use your breath weapon in an aerial dogfight is a good way to get fire up your nose. A real fight calls for sterner measures – and, concomitantly, a crew to aim and reload the cannons.

In today's competitive world, it's not enough to devour a flock of sheep and call it a day if you want to keep your edge. You're accompanied at all times by a qualified personal alchemist tasked with carefully regulating your internal furnace to ensure peak performance, and sometimes you even listen to them.

No dragon of any quality would be caught dead without their valet. It's not as though you can announce your numerous long-winded titles yourself when introductions are called for, can you? You suppose next you'll be expected to pick up the spoils of your conquests yourself, like a common brigand. Perish the thought!

Astronauts are so funny man. Here's just a couple of things I've found hilarious from this past week of space stuff:

It's probably already been spread around here enough already, but in case anyone's missed it; 7 hours after launch, commander Reid Wiseman, dealing with tech issues, uttered the generational quote "I have two Microsoft Outlooks and neither one of those are working."

After fixing the issues that were afflicting the onboard toilet, mission specialist Christina Koch (who has quickly become my favourite of the four) laughingly said “I’m the space plumber, I’m proud to call myself the space plumber.”

On Easter Sunday, the Artemis II crew hosted a makeshift egg hunt, by hiding packets of dehydrated scrambled eggs around their Orion capsule.

The way the crew always makes sure to make it very clear they're in space when doing interviews. From stuff like Wiseman just hanging out floating sideways on screen or Koch letting her hair loose so it can freely span out flowing around her.

While in transit, the crew decided to record a parody of those bad 80s sitcom intros where everyone turns and smiles at the camera.

When the crew reached the furthest point from Earth in the mission, they jokingly clambored over each other in an effort to get to the far side of the capsule, so that they could individually claim to be the furthest person from earth.

At the same time, on the ISS which was at the time on the other side of earth, the 7 astronauts onboard had a light-hearted race to the far side of the station, making jokes about being the furthest humans from Artemis.

On the way back to earth, NASA actually managed to establish an audio call between the crews of the ISS and Artemis II (where they shared the above info), and Koch called one member of the ISS crew, Jessica Meir, her "astro-sister" as the two of them previously spacewalker together in 2019. Meir then responded I'm so happy that we are back in space together, even if we are a few miles apart" (a few here being 230,000).

While Jeremy Hansen was doing an interview, Wiseman and Koch were just in the background swatting the mission mascot (a little moon plush toy named Rise) back and forth between each other.

I love how NASA seems to exclusively select turbodorks for its missions

social media sites should let you add custom buttons on your profile. like maybe you get max 3 buttons and they can have whatever text you want. and each button has its own persistent counter for how many times it's been clicked. here's some concept art

[bramblepatch]

The person who made cookie clicker thinks we should all have buttons that you click and the numbers go up? You don't say.
