Sentient Mystery Shack, who is really biased towards Stan, so when Ford tells Stan he has to give it back after the summer it’s on sight.
Ford keeps tripping over nothing, nothing is where it's supposed to be and somehow he keeps running into closets when he tries to go outside.
But the worst part, the WORST part is that Ford's lightbulb just won't. Work. No matter what he does it keeps flickering and exploding.
Ford is spiraling.
There is no reason why it shoudln’t work. All his trial runs work perfectly. He’s already checked the Shacks wiring three times and relearned this dimensions science from the ground up.
Nothing works.
The Rift? Bill? The impending apocalypse? Eating? Sleep? Who cares about that.
WHY. WONT. THE. LIGHTBULB. WORK???
It doesn’t help that Stan keeps laughing at him.
“Then you do it!” Ford eventually snaps at Stan.
Stan shrugs and with a little song under his breath screws his own lightbulb in. It works perfectly.
Stanford screams.
#gravity falls#stanley pines#stanford pines#the mystery shack#afterwards stan can be seen gently petting the kitchen door#the lightbulb shines a little brighter#that time in the show where soos mentioned how funny it would be if the exit door was actually a closet#thats a game the shack likes to play with soos#the kids are bored or need a new room? suddenly they find a mysterious new room in the shack#stan cant find his remote? the shack just really wanted to watch old timey movies with stan. it knows stan best. it knew stan would have fu#stans thr shacks blorbo after all#stan also turned the shack from a cold messy research facility into a fun home that gets lots of visitors#the shack loves the tourists and mr mystery#so many stories and different people to watch#stan also hasnt paid the electricity bill in years everything still works somehow#and if they hadnt defeated gideom when they did the shavk wouldve shown that little bastard why they used to call it the murder hut 😡#the thing is ford already checked if hes cursed or if something elsemis going on with the shack and he put gravity falls weirdness factor#into account but he cant find anything out of the ordinary#the shack is just going backt o normal.everytime he turns his scanners on to check#besides theres no way the shack would turn against ford -its his house he built it#so it definitely cant be that

assorted bits from historical australia au that was inspired by an old textpost. and also by 1800s naturalist lit on platypuses and other fauna
something like: charlene cajoled roger into letting heinz have a light sentence and he ultimately takes up naturalist studies. but ultimately he doesnt get credited for any of his work, and ends up unanimously blacklisted from the research community for being too much of a freak. like theyve all already figured out the secrets of the platypus but he's hung up on one particular specimen and refuses to kill him or any others to send back home for further dissection, what's up with that?
#draws#i gotta post this and run i have to watch iwtv#in my head i cd envision this setup as a really fun epistolary fic inspired by those argumentative 1800s research journals#but i cant write#the text post was by freedomandfiction i think but i cant find it rn I HAVE TO RUN AAAAAA VAMPIRES#AAAA daniel is so fuckn hot

Asena is perfectly comfortable with nonsexual nudity (you kind of have to be as a werewolf, the clothes don’t come with), but seeing a chance to make Gale blush activates her prey drive.
#bg3 fanart#bg3 gale#baldur's gate 3#gale of waterdeep#gale dekarios#bg3 comic#bg3 tav#gale x tav#oc: asena#saw Gale at the renn faire today which was funny cause for some reason I was really suspecting I might#no other Baldur’s Gate cosplays just Gale#changing Asena to a monk really helped me with reasoning out her magic werewolf tattoos#don’t @ me if I’ve missed some glaring Forgotten Realms lore for why this would be stupid I tried to do my research#Asena claims her tattoos absorb and store moonlight to trigger shifting whenever#and that’s why occasionally she’d run around naked at night#but she might just do that for fun anyways#especially since she can’t actually use them during the timeframe of the game#I had a thought that some of the line work is actually incredibly tiny script#Gale gets distracted trying to decipher it (it’s in sylvan)#Asena props herself up on her elbows and is like ‘excuse me you are not down there to read my thighs’

day 1421
#uh just a heads up if you expand the tags to see all there's. a lot. very long#amphibian#frog#poison dart frog#based on my most popular frog to date (day 651)#inspired by everyone pointing out what they think it looks like#here's a fun secret fact the original guy is actually a phantasmal poison dart frog (Epipedobates tricolor)#(according to the original artists title of the drawing)#not Anthony's poison arrow frog (Epipedobates anthonyi)#i feel too awkward to really point it out though because they look the exact same. i cannot tell if there is a difference#im half convinced the same frog was just discovered and named twice#its very curious btw if you go on the (english) wikipedia page for either species it doesn't mention the other#while hereptiles.info (no idea if this is a trustworthy site) lists both names as common names for the same frog (incorrectly??)#while inaturalist lists them as two different frogs. curiously with tricolor having wayyyyy fewer photos#ok anyway that's my rant i went on a whole journey trying to figure out if these are the same frog or not and i have no answer#i did some more 'research' and i am more confused. some sources seem to imply they are now considered the same species ( e. tricolor)#i think my conclusion is i am willing to agree the drawing looks more like e. anthonyi. it seems like tricolor is generally less vibrant re#and the white is darker and more green?#i feel like thumblr should stop me from typing more in the tags at this point this is a whole essay#at this point i am failry convinced this is specifically the Santa Isabel frog. isthat the real subspecies or morph or whatever#or just the name pet sites are using to sell it??#i even found some sources (frog selling websites) refering to it as “Epipedobates Anthonyi 'Santa Isabel' Phantasmal Poison Dart Frog” lol#Anyways if you read this far hi. species are confusing. i am not a frog scientist#the first few tags are like an hour old now i just kept trying to figure it out and adding more tags

hope you feel better soon!
I am riddled with ailments, but I stay silly!
#ask#non mdzs#My health journey has been: Hernia -> acid reflux -> Vocal pain due to aforementioned reflux -> chest infection.#I'm terrified to know what's about to hit me next. Please let it be something kind. PLEASE.#The consequence of living with linguists is that you'll wake up with a wacked up voice -#suddenly you're sitting you down in front of a program called something like Praat having your shimmer and jitter levels calibrated.#They gave me a GRBAS of 33012. I have a fun thing called a pitch break where a whole octave just does not exist.#My vocal pain was bad enough I ended up seeing a speech pathologist and that whole experience was super neat!#I learnt a lot about voice - to be honest I might make a little comic on it after some more research. Fascinating stuff.#For example; your mental perception of our voice modulates the muscles of the vocal folds and larynx.#meaning that when you do have changes (inflammation = more mass = lower frequency)#your brain automatically attempts to correct it to what it 'should sound like'. Leading to a lot more vocal strain and damage!#And it gets really interesting for trans voice care as well - because the mental perception of one's voice isn't based on an existing sampl#So a good chunk of trans voice training is also done with the idea of finding one's voice and retraining the brain to accept it. Neat!#Parkinsonial Voice also has this perception to musculature link! The perception is that they are talking at a loud/normal volume#but the actual voice is quite breathy and weak. So vocal training works on practicing putting more effort into the voice#and retraining the brain to accept the 'loud' voice as 'normal'.#Isn't the human body fascinating?#Anyhow; Now I have vocal exercises and strategies to reduce strain and promote healing.#Which is a lot better than my previous strategy of yelling AAAH in my car until my 'voice smoothed out'.#You can imagine the horror on the speech path's face. I am an informed creature now.#I'm my own little lab rat now. I love learning and researching. Welcome to my tag lab. Class is dismissed.#I'll be back later with a few more answered asks </3 despite everything I'm still going to work and I need the extra sleep.#Thank you for the well wishes! And if you read all of that info dump; thank you for that as well!

I think Aventio and Screwtio shippers shouldn't fight. After all, Ratio has two hands!
That's right. Two hands.
One for his chalk.
One for his codex.
Both of which he's holding in an embarrassed death grip as they chat away with each other about him.
#I'm on to something here#screwtio#aventio#hsr aventurine#veritas ratio#dr ratio#screwllum#hsr#honkai star rail#now as a disclaimer I'm not personally a huge fan of aventio#exclusively because i think they are so SO much funnier as gay friends#but something about combining the two clicks really well to me#Aventurine and Screwllum would be pretty fantastic metamours i think#they'd have a lot of fun playing off each other#but also Screwllum being there to dispute Aventurine's doubts over whether or not Ratio cares as a verified outside perspective#listing off shit like upticks in heartrate pupil dialation etc on top of being like#he talks about you fondly he knows your favorite things i can personally attest that you are very evidently important to him#stuff Aventurine can't easily write off when coming from not only an outside perspective but also a literal Genius#and on the flip side Aventurine would finally have someone other than Ratio and the Trailblazer he can talk to with relative ease#someone who has also been through a frankly incredibly traumatizing historical event#someone who is also under constant pressure to perform a certain way#someone who has gained wealth and power at the cost of carrying responsibilities on his shoulders and never being truly free#appearing free to anyone who glances but neither of them really are#Screwllum seemingly able to freely pursue whatever research he wants but ultimately permanently shackled with his titles#and public pressure to be the perfect poised representative for all of inorganic kind#forever treading the line of being both a desirable ally and a sufficient threat that you wouldn't want to cross him#and similarly Aventurine stuck in his cycle that he feels only death can free him from of gambling with his life on the line#because the IPC basically owns him#because let's be honest Jade's offer was just a lifetime labor contract he couldn't refuse#granted the illusion of freedom through gaining money and power but never truly free

Self indulgent drawing of Murderbot <3 It and ART are cruising through space, just the two of them, and Murderbot is relaxed and comfortable. ART has more than a few feelings about this and saves an image to its archive -- unfortunately Murderbot is aware of ART watching it and it flips off one of the drones.
(it doesn't dislike the attention ART is giving it... it just makes it a bit flustered!)
See some bonus images (including ones without text) below the cut, along with an explanation of some of the design choices!
I am 100% in the camp of Murderbot having a much more expressive face than it realizes, especially when it's alone and/or comfortable.
All text in the images with a color block behind it is essentially metadata that ART has attached to any tag it makes for Murderbot.
The blue inorganics are purely because @hazelek found a post with early 2000s vibrant, semi-transparent tech and we were joking around about MB getting aesthetic upgrades lmao.
About half the tags in the last image are courtesy of @scificrows alkdjfl;kj thank you dearly for those additions!
#⨀#fanart#murderbot diaries#the murderbot diaries#murderbot#tmd#secunit#mb+a#art (asshole research transport)#i've never been more proud of an expression in my life aldkfj;l#this entire thing started because of the fic i wrote where ART makes a note of MB's long legs#cause then i felt the need to draw MB with leggy legs... all comfortable and sprawling because MB deserves to be relaxed and comfortable#and then i got frustrated with drawing clothing and folds and said fuck it why does it need to be wearing clothes? its just it and ART!#plus i like its design and its fun to draw#anyway this was great fun to draw and i really like the end results

My hare-brained theory is that Sean is going to die due to his heart issues, excessive drinking, etc but thanks to Laszlo now having a grasp on how to reanimate the dead...well, you get the idea
#usually with his experiments they drop them after a couple eps or only bring them back for a ha ha moment later#but his monster has been in every ep I believe??#and even within the most recent ep they showed laszlo continuing! to research anatomy to get an even better understanding#they've talked about how sean is all but brain dead#so if he comes back with some surgical staples + lumbering around + impaired speech#hardly anyone is going to think twice#it also allows laszlo to keep his rotten boy sweet cheese good time boy forevermore#i've seen a few ppl speculate that the reanimation plot line will circle around to memo in some way#but i'm REALLY thinking that if it pans out to anything more than just a fun bit throughout the season#it'll be to save sean#wwdits#wwdits spoilers#laszlo cravensworth#sean rinaldi#i also think nadja should get to turn charmaine <33#but i feel like thats less likely no matter how !!!! it would be#what we do in the shadows#seanzlo#to me <3

this was smart <'3
#fionna and cake#adventure time#fionna and cake spoilers#simon petrikov#fionna campbell#i love this turn around for fionna's thought's on the ice king its so smart...#at the beginning she saw ice king as just a funny and goofy guy side to simon. not really knowing the depths of what he truly represented.#and at that time she barley KNEW him#so of course she'd say ice king seemed happier then simon#but now that she KNOWS things about him#his love life with betty#his research into magic#his humor. his heart. his dedication to help her and cake as much as he can.#seeing how bad a ice king CAN be with the winter king.#and seeing those tapes.#that's not him.#that guy...who he was for thousands of year's... that's not the TRUE simon.#ice king IS sad#on the outside he looks happy. to people who dont know hes just a goofy guy having fun with his penguin's!#but now with fionna knowing context...#simon is the happier one out of the two.#the less insane.#the one who sure isnt in a great moment in his life right now. but he's HIMSELF.#not ice king. he's simon.#simon petrikov. the true version.

on a scale of Warden Antoine to Johanna Hezenkoss, how many problems is that mad scientist in The Veilguard causing?
#love how everyone in the game has such like research and science and gathering intel vibe. everyone in this game is a fucking nerd.#including the companions you don't really expect to be people who poke around in the libraries and archives and have research notes.#there being so many researchers and scientists and academics and research inclined tho means many are mad scientists. which is so fun#Antoine Dragon Age#Antoine Ivo#Johanna Hezenkoss#Dragon Age: The Veilguard#Dragon Age The Veilguard#Dragon Age#DATV spoilers#DATV things#Veilguard spoilers#datv#Veilguard

i’m giving the chapter 6 doc a beat to marinate before i jump back into wip wednesdays, so in the meanwhile here’s a snippet from my extremely self-indulgent side project:
“Tim!”
The shadows dissipate all at once, Tim yanking his magic back like he’s nine and just laid his palm flat on the stove. Light returns to the chamber, and he sees Bruce in the doorway—Bruce, not Batman—as a silhouette first, features coming into focus a moment later. His gaze rakes over Tim and then lands on the form hunched in the corner.
“Conner,” Bruce says in a blank, bemused sort of way, crouching down. The person lifts their head and Tim gets his first look at his attacker. And—
Oh, Tim thinks. His instincts definitely guessed wrong.
Superboy—because that’s Superboy there on the stone floor, leather jacket and curls and of course, the brightness makes so much sense now��sucks in a breath, one hand braced on the floor, face gray. “What,” he wheezes, raising a trembling finger to jab in Tim’s direction, “is that?”
#me: i’m just going to write a little drabble for warmup! [spends 90 minutes researching something] [doc is 2k and counting]#this really is just for fun like i’m just writing little semi-chronological installments when the mood strikes#there isn’t a large overarching plot here just vaguely developing relationships#my fic

I’ll be a doctor one day and all the pharmaceutical reps will be waiting in the lobby for hours begging for a chance to speak with me to push their samples to patients and I’ll have pharmaceutical companies buying free lunch for my employees every day just so they can sit w me at lunch and speak to me and I’ll also have a housewife/husband but instead it’ll be an office wife/husband and they’ll run the managerial aspects of my hospital for me . Among other things
#And that’s a VOW#Also depending on how involved I’ll be in the biotech industry maybe I’ll also be a medical director and spearhead sick research projects#I’ll def be research leaning I really do love it#But I don’t wanna do that shit on the sidelines like when I’m older I want to be directing that shit#I for sure wanna be involved in drug discovery I think it’s so fun#So many goals 😞😞#Also I’ll have a high turnover for patients and patients won’t wait forever but my staff will still be pleasant and not pushy#I also hate the red tape around healthcare services so they’ll fs be a lot more accessible#I have a lot of goals that are patient oriented I was just trying to sound conceited but it goes beyond that tbh#It’s rly funny watching pharma reps grovel but there’s more to life than being groveled for
