Everyone has all these great fluffy Tommy headcanons, and the only one I really have is that he was absolutely a space nerd growing up and has even thought about naming his daughter, should he ever have one, after Sally Ride.

An independent Courier would actually hate being in charge or enforcing standards in New Vegas. At least in my mind.

They made Vegas independent but I feel like that playthrough/style so clearly makes it apparent it isn't for them. They are making Vegas a place where people can live freely, like how House genuinely didn't care what people did but without the behind-the-scenes Big Brother surveillance he did. Having every family, faction, and other influence group or person comes to them about alliances or rules would be draining, and boring, one note.

In an independent Vegas, The Courier is also Independent. They like getting rid of lines and borders that impede freedom, they like to help give people the tool but I don't believe they want to be the one to shape it.

Was thinking about Tolkien teen wolf again and, yes, obviously Scott and Stiles are Frodo and Sam, of course, but more importantly and distressingly, Derek is Aragorn. I mean that with my whole chest.

Like, yeah, dark and brooding and kind of a dick at the beginning, ok, sure, but also return of the king?? My man was part of some forgotten legendary family that only an old wizard gives a shit about anymore and he's just been living his life in the darkness, a shadow of his former self, running from who he really is because responsibility and fate and legacy are scary and what if he fucks everything up?? But then he runs into these two weird little dudes with their even weirder friends and their doomed circumstances and their complete inability to understand how much danger they're really in, so now he's gotta come out of his little self-imposed retirement to make sure they don't get themselves killed trying to be heroes or have adventures or whatever.

The friendship with legolas doesn't really track because Allison is legolas obviously, and she did try to kill him but it be like that sometimes in war or helms deep or whatever.

Anyway, Deragorn. I can't draw digitally, but his ass would definitely do that dramatic French door opening scene after everyone thought he died fighting the wargs.

Books of 2024: ALWAYS COMING HOME by Ursula K. Le Guin.

The people have Spoken, so I'll be reading this 618-page brick next! The cover page credits the author, an artist, a composer, a geomancer (??), and the author of the intro, so. I suspect I'm in for a Ride™. I am both Excited and Intimidated--will report back on how this goes!

Chappell Roan is just handing me the urge to go get a tattoo of her lyrics on a fucking platter

The West Wing is such a wild show to rewatch if you have approximate knowledge of many things because a lot of the situations are real political situations that are somehow still fucking ongoing and the rest are thinly-veiled fictionalized versions of real places, such as a potential nuclear accident at the "San Andreo nuclear power plant", which I instantly identified as based on the notoriously finicky power plant that was operating within fifty miles of my hometown through my entire childhood, precisely while this show was airing.

Hey y'all! Weird question time, not really a medical question, more a question about doctors office response times? Below a read more in case you want to skip it:

So, last week I may or may not have passed out*, in a way different to the times I may or may not (almost definitely have) passed out before, because this time my blood pressure was not low and my heart rate was not high. I am someone with a long history of cardiac-adjacent issues, endocrine and/or brain related issues, and neurological issues**. I called my primary care doctor early afternoon on Wednesday and did not hear back from his office until after 5pm on Thursday, though the very helpful nurse I spoke to at the front desk squeezed me in for an appointment with a different doc at the same location on Thursday morning. I called my neurologist at the same time Wednesday, and I did not hear back from their office until today, the following Monday. They also were not calling to schedule an appointment. They were calling to see if I'd gotten my referral to an ENT that they send in five months ago, and mentioned they'd gotten my message that I'd "had an incident". I had to get transferred to someone else and say "I saw my primary care doctor already because you did not return my messages and I'd passed out. He did some bloodwork that all turned up normal and told me to talk to my neurologist" before they even considered getting me an appointment (which they did not do! They said they'd call me back tomorrow!) The question: Is that an unreasonable response time? It feels like an unreasonable response time to me, from both my PCP and my neurologist, honestly. Like, the nurse at the PCP's facility got me in to see another doctor, but my PCP didn't know and didn't respond for over a day, and my neurologist took five days and wouldn't schedule an appointment. I suspect the combo of past history of heart and neurological issues and passing out for the first time in years should be the sort of thing that rings alarm bells, right? *when I felt like I was going to fall down if I did not immediately lie down, I chose to lie down and had my eyes closed while lying down and I think I lost time? hard to tell though **I have tachycardia but it's never ever out of rhythm, so technically I don't have heart issues? The tachycardia tends to alarm new doctors though, like I get an express pass to an EKG immediately at the ER. The endocrine and/or brain issue is the salt wasting syndrome. Might be endocrine! Might be brain damage! Hard to tell! Thought it was endocrine for a long time but there's overlap. The neurological issues are migraines and brain fog.

opening the group chat for the first time today and there's like 200 new messages because everyone's Going Through It today it seems but one of my friends dropped 'I'm separating from [terrible boyfriend she's been living with for like eight years] for real this time, I just moved a bunch of stuff to my parents' and I'm losing my mind because y'all the subject changed almost immediately HEY HI EVERYBODY ELSE SHUT THE FUCK UP I WANNA HEAR ABOUT THAT???

[daincrediblegg]

Can I be honest. I’m sick of companies of all sorts designing things that basically only benefit/work for people living in california and nowhere else? It’s getting tiring for the rest of us
