Me: I should try out tanking, I've been playing forever and haven't tanked. Maybe I can get over my fear of dungeoneering as a tank.

Also me: Yeah but starting from 1 sucks and I don't really think I feel like doing ARR again, you hear me? Maybe I'll just do GNB on my lalafell.

My brain, yelling at me from a second story window: GUYS I HAVE A GREAT IDEA AND I'M DOING IT.

So anyway, I rolled an alt au ra and started her on marauder. THEN I decided given what I was making her into I was going to ALSO go ahead and pick up lancer and fishing because they just made sense. Now I'm 32/36 levels into ARR content, but at least I like the concept enough to just keep going.

One day I'll listen to myself and just not roll the alt but THIS IS NOT THAT DAY!

Anyway here's Wonderwall Ayumi Mamoru, shugorei and local kami of a former small hingashi fishing village.

This is from an excellent Batman run too, where Batman is actually Dick Grayson (former Robin) who is paired with Damian Wayne (Bruce's son raised by assassins). The whole thing is just such a fun read.

Batcow

Okay, as an individual from an agricultural area, I tend to get really nit-picky about how livestock is represented in media. So it’s always bothered me that Batcow (or Bat-Cow) has been identified at least once as a Jersey cow.

Here’s a picture of Batcow.

And here’s a Jersey cow.

The breed is typically solid brown, with lighter coloring on the legs and face, but no white patches. Sure, Batcow could be a mix breed of a Jersey and Holstein (below), as that would have given her her white patches.

However, Holsteins are a tall breed and Batcow is a relatively short cow. See how she compares to Jon and Damian.

Also, both Holsteins and Jerseys are dairy breeds, so it’s highly unlikely that she would have been in a slaughterhouse if she was indeed a Jersey or Jersey/Holstein mix, especially since she appears to be a rather young cow. Beef cattle are sent to slaughter. Also, neither Holsteins nor Jerseys have horns.

Of course, Batcow can also be found with this red-and-white coloring, as seen below.

Also, she has a brand on her hip, which is typically used on beef cattle rather than dairy cattle. My best guess is that Batcow is actually one of these!

Hereford cows! A small, beef breed with red-and-white coloring. The white on the underbelly and face matches Batcow, and Herefords can have red facial markings. Also, Herefords carry the genetics for small horns and furry topknots on the tops of their heads, all traits exhibited by Batcow. I know Batcow is mostly white-and-brown in current comics, but Herefords range from dark red to light red, so I’m still sticking to the thought that Batcow is a very light red-brown Hereford. Also, Herefords are a very gentle breed known to recognize their owners, and Batcow certainly loves her cuddles and her Damian.

So there’s my PSA, discussing what breed of cow Batcow actually is.

EXCUSE ME ELONGATED MUSKRAT CAN YOU FUCKING STOP PLEASE. This is not the first disaster and it won't be the last. This idiocy should not be subsidized in the least, let alone allowed to continue. Just fucking fund NASA and let's get back to doing this properly.

And I do mean NASA because fucking Boeing's shit isn't any better.

astronomy club sent up a weather balloon w a gopro in it last friday. put in three packs of fruit snacks so they could have a giggle over eating fruit snacks that had been to space.

balloon went up into inner space, about 90,000 feet. came down right near the dinosaur park. a few physics teachers drive out to get it, crack it open on the way home to start watching the footage.

fruit snacks are missing.

multiple sources confirm that fruit snacks were put in balloon and sealed in with duct tape. physics teachers check entire balloon. no fruit snacks.

physics teachers watch footage. all 7 hours of it. right in the middle of footage, there are about 8 minutes of visual and audio static when balloon is in orbit. no other interference with balloon recorded.

conclusions: ???????
