Back on my Splendid kick, she, as her lovely Carrier and Sire’s child, has inherited a very large amount of "I can fix him" and looks at Getaway, frowns and decides he needs a friend. Whirl Jr. has doubts because, as she puts it "While your charitable spirit does you credit, I feel this is a poorly thought out idea as his vibes are quite rancid."
Her vocabulary is from Tailgate, Swerve, Whirl, Brainstorm, and Cyclonus, making her a strange mesh of small Victorian child, stand up comedian, and Tumblr native.
Splendid is firm that Getaway is lonely though and needs a friend.
The Tailgate Situation didn't happen because the romantic tension between Cygate got resolved too early. So now Getaway is being stalked by toddlers and having to be on his absolute best, most charming behavior while silently seething.
Splendid and Whirl Jr. constantly have a plethora babysitters following behind them, so Getaway is constantly supervised. The most bearable of which is Rodimus, who then drags Getaway into whatever adventure the girls have decided for the day. Getaway gets dragged into fishing. A lot. His daughter's determination has softened his own impression of Getaway.
Which would be great for Getaway and any plans except he never has a moment to act on them!
Getaway is dragged into positive character development, kicking and screaming because Optimus and Rodimus's kid has ungodly levels of determination that ends up with him literally 1v1-ing Tarn.
Sdfgh oh Splendid
Yes
"I can fix him" honey are you sure? Yes yes you are? Nothing we can do to stop her smh (affectionate)
Yessss on Whirl Jr saying that
Yes. Getaway's main plot has been foiled via C H I L D R E N, now he must make up a new one. That's adorable. Yes. He has been plagued by babies. We should give him one of his own. Ignore that if you wish.
Ggjkkl ohhh. Oh Getaway. Fuck yes. Splendid said "I can fix him" and proceeded to fix him kinda. A lil bit.
Wait he does what
That's gotta turn out interesting

megop my beloved anyways what are some sappy headcanons you have of them. i personally like to think Megs is the soft affectionate one in private lmao.
EEE THAT'S VERY CUTE AS WELL
i have some !!!
-megatron has definitely (accidentally) fallen asleep while optimus was talking. perhaps oppy was practising a speech or just telling him about this new book he read-- when he found out after several minutes of talking to himself he was a bit annoyed but also thought it was very cute. he took several pictures
-they're war mechs, i think they'd have that itch to fight someone that isn't a dummy, so sometimes they start discussing something, square up and throw punches. it's all lighthearted and in good fun of course, they patch each other up if they go too far
-so much HAND HOLDING DEAR GOD
-megatron's repertoire of dad jokes expands everyday thanks to optimus. he vows to never tell one of those (he's this close to breaking it and give optimus a taste of his own medicine)
-rumble to rumble communication. just literal rumbles. like they just stare at each other and one goes BRRRRR and the other goes BRRRRRRR much more loud, then the other goes BRUUM BRUUM. they're discussing whether they want to go to the park or stay at home and then optimus is like "yeah ok we'll stay inside". brummm (pleased megatron rumble)
-i like hugs so i will make them love hugs too. they're very warm, they love cuddling when reading, writing,, just cuddles

so i know the globes are no longer relevant (or at least they shouldn't be) but i will still be asking for your thoughts on the nominations.
Hahahaha thanks for your consideration!
Best Picture--Drama: I'm so glad to see Past Lives nominated! It was really gorgeous and made me cry and was touching in a way I didn't expect.
Oppenheimer obviously was going to get nominated. It's probably my favorite Nolan movie besides The Prestige (which SLAPS) so I'm fine with this. It is very impressive, even if it's a sausage fest per Nolan and it probably runs too long and has some issues (the depiction of women).
Kills of the Flower Moon... is one of my favorite movies this year. I will acknowledge critiques from Osage people noting that it is a white perspective, which I agree with; I also agree with the comments that it is the best possible perspective someone like Scorsese could offer. The acting is phenomenal across the board, the visuals are stunning, it actually EARNED its runtime, and the writing is really strong. Fantastic movie, should win this category in my opinion.
I haven't seen Maestro but based on the various issues I'm seeing surrounding it and Bradley Cooper doing... the most... for promo, I'm very turned off by it right now. I will see it in order to critique it honestly, but I'm not super thrilled to see it here.
Haven't seen the other two. This will be a battle between Oppy and KOTFM imo.
Best Picture--Musical/Comedy: I don't see a world where Barbie doesn't win this. I thought Barbie was a lot of fun, and Ryan Gosling was fab. But I don't really fully subscribe to the hype.
I'm excited for Poor Things but haven't seen it; I love Yorgos's eye and I think he and Emma do make a great team, even if I'm meh on her in general.
The Holdovers I haven't seen and don't super want to see but my brother says he's forcing me to see it so I guess I will.
May December is a great movie. It's not a comedy in any way, shape, or form. But this category usually does that so I'm not surprised. This is a dark, intense, heartbreaking, tragic movie. It's deeply disturbing. I love it, but it's not a comedy.
Haven't seen the other two.
Best Director: Again, BCoops is being insufferable and I generally dislike everything I'm hearing about this. Sorry you didn't get an Oscar nom for ASIB my guy, get over it.
I knew Greta would be nominated and I will say that I love the visuals of that movie, but I think the visual greatness of Barbie is super dependent on the production and costume design, so... I'm not saying it isn't deserved, but I'm not in love with it.
Again, haven't seen Poor Things by Yorgos is fab.
Nolan was a foregone conclusion, I think the movie does look great and is very interesting.
Scorsese should win, sorry, he put his heart and soul into that movie and you could tell with every bit of it. Listen, people can dog this man out all they want, but he is THAT GUY and I consider him one of the last Truly Legend Status directors working right now, so. I think this will go to Oppenheimer, but. Meh.
And again, I'm happy to see Celine Song nominated! Past Lives had a really unique vibe to it and I think she offered a film that we don't see as much of anymore.
Screenplay--Based on what I've seen on this list, should be KOTFM, I can see it going to Barbie. Oppy being written in the first person might woo some people, though.
Best Actor--Drama: Should absolutely be Cillian, he carried that movie and it wouldn't have worked without him. Just a fabulous performance. I can see Leo maaaaybe edging him out? He was really good in KOTFM. It is truly wild to me that Barry was nominated, lol, I haven't seen a rush of buzz for him in Saltburn though he is the best part of the movie. I don't think it was his best work, compared to Banshees.
Best Actress--Drama: If this isn't Lily Gladstone I'll screech. Incredibly moving, and another movie where this thing would not have worked if anyone else had played that role. I don't see this category being super competitive against her.
Best Actress--Comedy/Musical: I can see them giving it to Margot for the press. I think Emma has had the strongest buzz of this category, but Fantasia could totally dark horse it.
Best Actor/Comedy Musical--I have no opinion on this, but I'm going for Jeffrey Wright because he's generally so good.
Best Supporting Actor--Charles Melton DESERVES this, people. He's amazing in May December. Heart crushing. An absolute breakout revelation performance.
One person I could see him giving him a run for his money is De Niro, because he was also amazing in KOTFM. Absolutely loathsome. I can also see them giving it to RDJ, because he is entertaining in Oppy, and I'm getting "it's time" vibes, which I hate... but Charles has also been cleaning up with smaller critics' awards.
Best Supporting Actress--Da'Vine is getting some great reviews, I feel like she's got a really good shot. Julianne is very good in May December, but she's also a very decorated actress. Um, sorry, Emily Blunt was not anything special in Oppy and if she gets this I'll be so baffled.
Best TV Series--Drama: I can see this going to Succession or possibly The Last of Us. Succession has the final season going for it, and it was actually amazing. TLOUS has fandom hype going for it, which the Globes likes. The Diplomat won't win, but fwiw I liked that show a lot.
Best TV Series--Comedy: Abbott Elementary better win is all I'll say. The Bear and Barry shouldn't even be in this category lol.
Best TV Actor--Drama: I feel like this will be a duke it out between Jeremy and Kieran. I'd be thrilled with either winning, but Jeremy's already won and Kieran has an "it's his time" vibe, his last shot to win with what may end up being the defining performance of his career. Brian Cox is such a dick for submitting in this category and the awards shows are such dicks for nominating him, lol.
Best Actress--TV Drama: If Sarah Snook doesn't win I'm burning this city to the ground. Why is Emma even nominated lmao. I do love a Keri Russell, but nah man, nobody here compares to Snook.
Best Actress--TV Comedy: Tbh I think Elle gave the best performance in this category.... easily.... but Quinta is great and I'd love to see her win, too.
Best Actor--TV Comedy: I don't care for any of these nominees. Nicholas Hoult outsold everyone here, bummer that he doesn't have a nom.
Best Supporting Actor-TV: I'd love for Alan Ruck to pick something up, but Matty Mac did once again obliterate lol. Askars was amazing but I don't think he had enough PUNCHY moments.
Best Support Actress--TV: Elizabeth Debicki was great but didn't have the material, imo. Christina Ricci would be my pick here, but I feel like it's gonna go to Hannah Waddingham because last season and all that.
Best Limited Series--Beef is easily the best one here, but the horrible way that the casting controversy was handled may have ruined their shot. In that sense, I think Steven gave the best performance but it could go to Matt Bomer or Jon Hamm. For actress, I would've picked Ali Wong but.... Also, I will say, nobody saw Dead Rings but me apparently but I'm so glad Rachel Weisz got nominated here because she was INCREDIBLE. Will probably go to Brie Larson knowing my luck, though I don't think Lessons in Chemistry made the impact they thought it would.
Best Supporting Actress--Limited: Glad to see Carla here, she was great. I have no idea who this will go to but it probably won't be here lmao. Also, The Fall of the House of Usher should've gotten a nom for best Limited, but c'est la vie the awards shows hate horror. Also, I don't know if this is controversial but brave... I would've nominated Bruce for Best Actor. That could be my weird attraction to him in that role speaking, though.

Today I have officially completed the Barbenheimer experience!! It took me 3 tries to pick a good date to see Oppenheimer but I finally did it. When Oppie quoted John Donne's sonnet I wrote my MA thesis about I was so speechless!! Time is a flat circle. I left the cinema a changed woman. Barbie managed to confirm my identity as a whole and then Oppenheimer crushed me like an ant. Good experience, almost cried in the cinema during BOTH movies. (ㅠ‸ㅠ)
Baltazar also has a great time lately!! He's been romancing new Sims left and right, can you guess what trait they have in common? Brown hair, brown hair, brown hair. And also there's his mom's alien friend XD We seduced a GILF, now time for a MILF. Oh, it's a problem since she's not a mother? Don't worry, she will be soon when we get closer to her. ( • ̀ω•́ )✧
I think it's fair to introduce you all to the rest of Bal's romantic interests. Abeba had her spotlight and Pearl isn't new, so now it's time for: Katy Boles, Ramon Briscoe, and Laki Makani. The first two were made by my bestie @organized-decay just for me, and Laki is an Island Living pre-made put on Gallery from promo pictures!! Yeah, I'm letting myself to use another Maxis-made Sim for my gene pool, what of it? ( ͡º ꒳ ͡º) Stay tuned for more smexy times, Bal's aspiration is all about cheating and hurting. We're on that evil shit now!!

PBS NOVA: Solar System: Storm Worlds (2024)
Full episode available on the PBS page. I have no idea how long it'll stay up. Unfortunately I discovered that not all episodes stay uploaded. Like my beloved Mars episode from The Planets. Noooo.
About the wicked weird weather systems found in our Solar System
I love educational Youtube videos, but you just cannot beat the budget and production value of an actual tv production. The amount of rendering and visual effects must be prohibitively expensive for any one person (or team?) to do.
Cool stuff!!! Space is so cool.
Venus has a thick af atmosphere. The greenhouse gas effect has gone wild and its surface temperature is 900 degrees Fahrenheit. But somehow... its mountainous regions seem to have frost?
Tumblr media
The mountain tops are still prohibitively hot for water to even condensate, so it'd have to be some other kind of substance. Scientists still don't know what that substance could be, but they theorize it could be something like galena, also known as lead sulfide. Compounds like galena could exist in vaporized form in Venus' lowlands, only to be carried by wind up to higher altitudes, where they might solidify into a kind of metallic frost.
Isn't that so cool to think about? By the way, we've sent probes to Venus before, back in the 1980s. We have honest to goodness pictures of Venus' surface. Venus' skies are yellow from clouds of sulfuric acid.
Martian dust devils leave dark trails all over the planet. The wind picks up the lighter colored sand, exposing the darker rock underneath.
Tumblr media
The dust storms are also the reason the Spirit and Opportunity rovers were able to survive out there for so long. NASA had planned for the Martian dust to gradually coat the rovers' solar panels, rendering them less and less effective. They estimated the battery would last 3 months. But the dust storms wiped their solar panels clean! The rovers could keep going! Thank you, dust storms! Spirit went on for another 6 years, and Oppy for 15 years.
Spirit and Oppy are always emotional stories to tell. Everyone always tears up. And you can't feature Mars without talking about these rovers who helped us make so many discoveries about the planet.
This is what Jupiter looks like in infrared:
Tumblr media
Jupiter is radiating heat, remnant energy from its planetary formation. It's this heat that powers the storms on its surface. On Earth, storms' main energy source is the sun. Jupiter... powers its own. (Wickeddddddd. So cool.)
Titan! Saturn's largest moon. What's this? River channels?
Tumblr media
Let's give it up for Titan and her oceans of liquid methane which goes on a flash flooding spree across the planet every 29 years! Go Titan!
Anyway, I do love public television programs. Support your local PBS station, etc.

[-Important Blog Updates: March 31, 2024-]
Hello to anyone who's sent us asks and/or requests!! We unfortunately have been taking a long time to do things regarding MOGAI stuff due to a lack of energy, motivation, and a LOT of stress recently. There's been some family situations that have happened, as well as personal things regarding our chronic pain, disabilities, and some other stuff. Hopefully we'll be able to coin stuff again soon, and be able to fill requests sometime soon.
In the meantime, please be patient with us. We definitely didn't want to step away from coining for so long, but unfortunately it has happened, and I'm unsure when we'll be able to get back into coining with any sort of schedule.
Thank you for understanding, and for being patient during this time. We really do appreciate it. /gen
