Side Effects AU

What if, because of his lack of memory, Alastor is all for exploring the technology that advanced after his death?

He'll still insist it peaked with his time, but he does like watching radio repair vids and cooking channels.

This is a whole new level of complicated for Vox.

I'm actually planning to do something like this! The time period when Alastor was alive was actually a time of technological innovation, so I headcanon that his problem with new technology isn't that it's new, but what capitalism has shaped it into; user-unfriendly, hostile design, planned obsolescence, cheaper, less durable parts. And his whole thing with Vox only turned his disdain for it up tenfold.

Without his memories, Side Effects Alastor is pretty curious about 'futuristic' technology. And in a way, this is one of the things that the hotel guests find endearing about him. Because he's curious and open to listening and lets them guide him. And really pretty.

He turns that around on Vox though, playing innocent and curious so that Vox can feel like the big, smart, in-charge man and show off all of his modern tech to Alastor, only for Alastor to then use this knowledge to sabotage it.

some people think writers are so eloquent and good with words, but the reality is that we can sit there with our fingers on the keyboard going, “what’s the word for non-sunlight lighting? Like, fake lighting?” and for ten minutes, all our brain will supply is “unofficial”, and we know that’s not the right word, but it’s the only word we can come up with…until finally it’s like our face got smashed into a brick wall and we remember the word we want is “artificial”.

@markscherz do you know what type of frog this is? I can't tell if its a small adult or a baby frog.

[markscherz]

This is a juvenile Chacophrys pierottii, arguably the most comically proportioned frog ever. Here is an adult. If I had not taken this photo myself I would think it’s some kind of ridiculous meme render.

These are also the frogs that bury themselves in a backwards spiral that is seriously relatable.

Dan and I bought a thing called “long ziti” from the local Weird Bargain Store, largely as a joke, but…. I have never had a more unsettling pasta experience in my life. They wouldn’t bend enough to cook from top to bottom simultaneously, and while they were cooking boiling water kept spouting out from the tops of them out of the pot, like a boiling pipe organ. Then they were so long and floppy and hoselike that we couldn’t pick them up with anything other than tongs, and then they were so long and unwieldy that it was basically impossible to sauce them without them all slithering out of the bowl like wet snakes. They then proceeded to cool down almost completely within the the seconds it took to walk to the living room. Eating them was like eating a bowl full half melted drinking straws.

‘Drunk’ Welsh man survives swim across Hoover Dam and gets $330 fine

Arron Hughes is thought to be the only person to make it across the reservoir alive 

[theothin]

He said the swim took around 30 minutes but admitted he felt “knackered” half way across, but knew he had to make it to the other side as he could feel the water pulling him towards the dam. “I was sucked towards the wall and had to swim hard. At the other side I was exhausted. Then I heard police shout,” he told The Sun. He was handcuffed and arrested by Nevada police after making it across the water in front of the 726ft structure, and fined $330 (£250) for “jumping, diving, swimming from dam’s spillways or other structures”. The forklift driver is only thought to have survived as nine of the dam’s 10 turbines were switched off at the time. “One officer said, ‘In my whole lifetime I’ve never seen or heard of anyone doing it’,” Mr Hughes told MailOnline, while admitting his decision to go for a swim had been “fuelled by drink”. Some 275 people have reportedly died at the site in the last 10 years. “I don’t have any regrets,” Mr Hughes told the BBC. “I even have a tattoo saying ‘no regrets,’ that’s the type of person I am.”

i’m so fucking sick of people taking aspects of historical gay sexuality and saying “but what if i made it squeaky clean and sexless so i can have it” sometimes not everything is for you babes!!! sometimes you don’t get to have everything!!!

[butchfagminotaur]

“what’s the hanky for ppl who don’t wanna have sex or do kink or any of that” there isn’t one!!! it’s called not wearing a fucking hanky!!! because it’s not fucking for you!!!!!

[butchfagminotaur]

capitalism and individualism has rotted people’s brains to the point that it feels like a lot of people don’t understand that some things just aren’t fucking for them and they don’t need to twist and change it to force it to apply to them!!! sometimes things are not!!! for!!! you!!!
