#dinos are my special interest

I spent six hours reading about bird wingspans and looking for information on dinosaurs that flew, but aren't birds. A significant part of that time was *also* going on a magnificent rant about the HUNDREDS of shitty "science" articles/posts/videos calling quetzalcoatlus the "largest flying dinosaur", so prolific that even when I excluded quetzalcoatlus from the search parameters I was still served that bullshit. The rant resulted in a dozen people across four platforms being aggressively informed about the fact that pterosaurs ARE NOT DINOSAURS JFC IT TAKES FIVE MINUTES TO FIND THAT OUT, FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THINGS ANCIENT STOP CALLING QUETZAL A DINOSAUR.
I literally had to specifically look up microraptorans to find the *actual* answer to the largest flying dinosaur because lazy, misinformed jackasses that think their memories of bad paleo media count as facts that don't need to be researched have filled the internet with blatant misinformation. !
Like ffs, a weasel is more closely related to a jaguar than quetzalcoatlus is to ANY dinosaur, there's at least 160 million years between quetzalcoatlus and its common ancestor with dinosaurs!
To quote a science writer from the article on Changyuraptor (the largest, non avian flying dinosaur)
It's important to note that pterosaurs were not dinosaurs. As science writer Brian Switek has noted, "Calling a pterosaur a dinosaur is an error of the same order of magnitude as saying that our species is a marsupial." Both dinosaurs and pterosaurs have their own unique evolutionary history.
Quetzalcoatlus is a wonderful, weird animal, and pterosaurs are delightfully bizarre archosaurs that deserve to be respected! They're not dinosaurs, and that's ok! They're still cool on their own merits! The only dinosaurs that fly are avialens! Birds, their relatives, and related dromeosaurids! Get it together people!
#dinosaurs#pterosaurs#quetzalcoatlus#dinos are my special interest#so like this was not only hella annoying#but really upsetting#I've known pterosaurs aren't dinos#since elementary school#that's like 2 decades#cuz I'm 32#I wasn't even reading advanced books#so grown folks calling themselves writing science articles#need to get their shit together#cuz this intensity and entrenchment of bad info#is really ridiculous

DINOGOLF 2 ELECTRIC BOOGALOO! Despite waiting 18 years to actually get to go to dinogolf, I have now been twice in one year! Got to do the other course and see all the rest of the dinos that are harder to see as they're fuurther from the fence. Was very cool to see a mix of what are clearly the older models from before the refurb and the regular newer ones. We had a great time and I would recommend it if you're in Clifton Hill.

Leveling up in autism by checking out all the available dinosaur encyclopedias from the library
#it was just 2#but they also had a dino craft book that i think is going to profoundly impact the Land Before Time obsessed 8 year old part of my heart#also the weird animal book and the octopus book and the dinosaur book i already had checked out#and the dvds#and as im concidering the autisticness of my animal books it occured to me that the fact that 6 more of my books are about cults is also#most of my reading habits are actually very autistic but these books speak to old special interests so they feel different#personal

!!! i do this all the time! i have a couple pretty small ones an I bring em to school with me! :)
☆ can we normalize carrying toys / plushies in public? ☆
as an autistic person that struggles with social anxiety, taking my comfort plushies with me always helps me be more comfortable.
it's not wrong to have comfort items, and we shouldn't be shamed for carrying them around!
#they're a dino (dino!!!!!!!) and a bracelet plushie kinda of my special interest (wof) and a kitty bracelet and a lil yellow octopus!!!!!!!!#babbles

dinosaurs were veryy silly
hia! i tried my best to make this easy for screen readers if i didnt, please tell me how i can fix it!
dinosaur are very silly! like imagine a 28 foot (8.5 meters i think?) dinosaur with a long neck just existing! my theory is that since they have/had different ways they like to hold their necks they could use them so see if anything that could hurt them was near and alert the herd! some who holds their neck lower to the ground could we if velociraptors were near, and ones who hold their necks higher could see if t-rex are near! agine this is just my theory i may be wrong! and being wrong about a theory is a okay!
imagine if we never had that scientific theory, alot of the things we know may have had the wrong theory before they tried to see if it worked!
i would like to add feel free to correct me if i'm wrong about anything, i haven't went on a info dump about dinosaurs in a bit so my info may be wrong!

— I COULD CHANGE YOUR LIFE -
the prologue , it was important. — | — ...back — | — next... — |
summary: chris has an obsession with you, one of the most famous pop stars of the last few years. when he goes out to eat at a local diner with some friends, he spots you, and his obsession turns to something bigger.
pairing: stalker!chris sturniolo × singer!reader
warnings + topics: cursing, stalking, murder, weapons, blood, obsessive behavior, suggestive moments, breaking & entering, crying, arguments, chris is crazy, choking, drowning, etc. more than half of these topics are mentioned in later chapters, not the prologue.
author's note: if the person reading this is sensitive to any of the topics listed above, please do not read this. i am not responsible for your own media consumption, and will not change any aspect of the story for your own pleasure.
author's note 2: no but real talk, this is probably the most motivated i've ever been while writing/coming up with a story😭 i really hope all of you enjoy this and please remember this is just my imagination and is not real at all!!!
word count: 1.8k
"don't be afraid of me,
i'm what you need."
chris laughs at his brother's joke, hand landing on matt's shoulder as he clings onto the brunette boy. nick just chuckles, glancing over at madison only to see her laughing her ass off as well.
nate smiles at matt, taking a quick look at chris before he lets out a quiet giggle. chris was always making the group laugh, he was just unintentionally funny at times.
chris begins to tickle matt with a cheeky grin on his face, resulting in his brother pushing him away. matt steps in front of chris before opening the door for his friends, flashing a smile at madison, nate, and nick. he only sticks his tongue out at chris, and his younger brother does the same.
matt couldn't help but laugh before following close behind the group, looking back to make sure nobody else was coming through the door.
"haven't been here in years." nick says, taking in the atmosphere of the older building as he looks around the place. he can't believe it's been so long.
madison listens with intent as matt chimes in, adding on to his brothers new topic, "yeah, i can't believe it's still up."
"we always went here after our lacrosse and hockey games for a celebration, even if we didn't win. it became a tradition until we moved to la, so it's special being here again." the middle triplet explains with a smile on his face, reminiscing the vibe of the place.
nate hums at his friends memories, looking around the small diner that was mostly empty. there wasn't many people who came here as often, but it was very popular back when the triplets were in high-school.
chris grabs both of his brothers, pulling them closer to him with a huge smile on his face, "yup, gotta love the memories we made in this place." nick grimaces at his brother's cheery tone, but he still pats his back affectionately.
matt just ruffles his hair before distentangling his and his brothers limbs, settling his hands in his jean pockets as he waits for someone to speak again.
"let's go sit?" madison suggests, and the whole group collectively agrees as matt and madison lead the way to a booth in the corner of the building.
all of them immerse in conversation as they look over at the menu, chris looking over at the kids menu occasionally and getting interested in the short list of options. chicken nuggets did sound good, but he wasn't seriously gonna get them.
"kid seriously got dino nuggets," matt laughs, and chris only flips him off, "shit is crazy."
madison looks over at chris, grabbing his forearm to slowly bring it back down on the table. as chris turns his head to look at her, she sighs, eyes wide in warning. "if you bark at me again..."
nick laughs, looking over at nate and matt to catch their reactions. nate snorts and matt laughs harder at his best friends reaction. he can't help but grab nates shoulder and rest along his back comfortably, tears almost pricking in his eyes.
madison forks a piece of steak into her mouth, looking over at chris to see that he's already munching on his meal.
"slow down, chris. you're gonna get the hiccups." matt says, tone warning as he looks at his brother with a slightly concerned expression.
the brunette picks up his sandwich before biting into it, his eyes trained on his younger brother as he bites down on a fry.
the others begin to eat, chatting in between bites as they get sucked into the topic of work. chris hates the topic, but he has no choice but to listen in. some of the stuff he finds interesting, like designs for merch and new ideas for vlogs over the summer.
he can't help but let his attention wander off from the conversation in front of him, eyes roaming the old diner and looking around for any other things that catch his eye. he doesn't want to think about work the entire rest of the night, that's actually what he wants to get his mind off of.
his foot taps against the side of the booths seat, his leg hanging off but not quite touching the floor just yet. did they raise the seating in this place? maybe, but all he could focus on at the moment was a girl sitting across from his friend group.
chris could only see the side of her face, but he knew who it was. he knew very well who hid in a booth at the back of the diner. it was y/n l/n, one of singers he's been obsessing over lately. what was she doing in boston? no, what was she doing in such a low-quality diner like this? he seriously didn't understand why huge a-list celebrities went to run-down places.
maybe for the aesthetic, the scenery. he does the same thing, but he never thinks bad of the places he goes to. nothing is really considered bad unless it's falling apart or smells horrible. like chobani yogurt. he couldn't stand the smell of that... substance. he wouldn't even clarify it as food!
"what the actual fuck." chris says out in the open, louder than he intended to but not loud enough that she could hear.
nick tenses up at his brothers tone, grabbing onto matts shoulder tight as he looks over at the younger boy, "what. chris, what?!"
matt winces at the small pain, but he also becomes alert, looking around the place for any signs of danger. he sees none, and his eyes return to chris again. everybody's eyes are on him now, but the longer-haired boys eyes aren't on them.
"chris!" nate exclaims, shaking his friends shoulder and finally making him come back to reality.
the brunette has to hold himself back from pointing, gripping the seat under him as he speaks quietly, like if he spoke any louder the building would collapse, "y/n l/n. y/n l/n is in that booth right-fucking-there, look, look!!"
the entire groups heads turn in sync, looking the direction that chris' eyes were pointed at. madison, nick, and matt's jaws dropped, and nate only looked around in confusion. madison began to shake matt by his shoulders, and he let her.
he was sure the entire group, minus nate, was in shock. they all had the same questions as chris, why was she here? who was that girl she was with? would she take a picture with them if they asked?
chris didn't give them any more time to think, practically jumping out of his seat and holding himself back from running straight towards her. he was about to meet his favorite female singer ever, and possibly even take a picture with her? how could this day get any better, seriously.
"hi, excuse me. sorry to bother you, but could i get a picture?" chris smiled, eyes glistening in the dim lighting of the diner, and maybe even in admiration of the beautiful girl in front of him.
she looked up from her friend, who chris knew as olivia rodrigo, and looked at him with a sweet smile. he swore her teeth glowed, "of course,"
she stood up from the booth, the drop being insanely tall for her shorter figure. chris had a couple inches on y/n which resulted in him looking down at the h/c girl. she cocked an eyebrow as she took a better look at him, eyes basically glowing at the realization.
"hey, aren't you that famous youtuber that films with his brother? correct me if i'm wrong, but you're chris, right?" she asks with slight confusion in her voice, and chris just stares in awe at the knowledge that y/n knows who he is.
y/n stares at him awkwardly, hearing olivia giggle behind her quietly. that's what snaps chris back to reality, and he nods his head, "yeah, yes, that's me! how'd you know? do you.. do you watch us?
he watches you. interviews, live performances, listening parties. that's what he meant, he wasn't some creep that followed around people he liked. probably.
she nodded her head as she looked up at the taller boy, still shocked that one of her favorite celebrities came up to her. y/n didn't even see him walk in, and now here he was, asking for a picture. "yeah! and i would assume you listen to me, hm?"
chris nodded happily, a grin on his face as he stared into her eyes with adoration. y/n was so much prettier in real life. now, he could really see all of her facial features, he could see the features that made her special, "yes! i love your music so fucking much. it always brings me up whenever i'm down, you're really a huge part in my life."
y/n made a gesture with her hands, putting them over her heart as she looked at chris with her doe eyes, "that means so much to me, chris. you're so sweet, thank you."
she couldn't help but wrap her arms around the boy, and chris only welcomed her warmly, taking in the scent of her perfume as his head rested on the h/c-girls shoulder. she smelled as good as she looked. damn, the things he'd do just to have her perfume on his nightstand.
fuck, the things he'd do just for her love, even. he would steal for her, and he had just met the girl. no, it felt like they've been friends for an eternity, and now they were just meeting again for the first time in a while. that's the real story. it's not fake.
"i saw you on the screens
i know we're meant to be."
matt opened the door again, beckoning all of his friends and his brother out the door of the old diner. he watched as chris stood still, leaning against the wall as he stated over at y/n. she was making small talk with her waitress as she signed on the bill.
chris couldn't get enough of the girl after that interaction they had. he couldn't get her out of his mind, she was just there, clouding all of his senses with nothing but y/n.
"hey, buddy!" matt snapped, and chris turned to look over at his brother who just stared at him with suspicion in his gaze, "are you coming or not? we don't have all night, y'know."
the younger boy shrugged, turning back to look at that beautiful girl, "i'll take an uber home. you guys can take madison to her hotel and nate to his house, i just have a few things to do."
matt sighed quietly, worry and suspicion flashing across his features as he looked at his brother. he just shrugged it off before walking out the door, and chris smiled when he heard the door shut.
he had things to do tonight, important things. his brothers wouldn't care if he was out late tonight, right? i mean, after all, he had to do this. it was important.

make my dawn interview ~ 2019 special cut ᰔᩚ
cyana's masterlist
make my dawn special release interview
interview format / comments might be wonky on phone
INTERVIEWER: Hello everyone, today we're joined by Korean Boy Band SEVENTEEN! How are you guys feeling today?
S.COUPS: We're feeling great!
DK: Yes~ Very good.
INTERVIEWER: That's good. We're here today because you're releasing your sixth mini album You Make My Dawn! (claps) Congratulations!
SVT (as a whole): Yes~ Thank you!
INTERVIEWER: Please introduce the album to our viewers -
JOSHUA: (raises his hand quietly) I can do that - Our sixth mini album titled You Make My Dawn will be released in January, and it had six tracks with unit tracks as well! Please show it lots of love~
INTERVIEWER: And I noticed we have a new addition to the group since last comeback, would the new member please introduce herself?
CYANA: (flushed) Hi everyone~ My name is Cyana, I'm part of the vocal unit for SEVENTEEN. (smiles and waves)
INTERVIEWER: Having a female member is new for the industry, what are your thoughts on being the first ever female idol in a boy group?
CYANA: (pauses, looking at the others for help) Well... I'm happy to be able to break boundaries, I think it's an interesting idea that's worth pursuing. SEVENTEEN's an amazing group already and I hope to be able to add that that.
S.COUPS: Cyana's been a valuable member of our team as we prepared this upcoming album. She's earned her place here.
INTERVIEWER: And how did the rest of the group feel at the sudden change? I'm sure it was a shocking thing to adjust to.
HOSHI: We were all surprised, but excited. SEVENTEEN's known for being experimental when we need to be, and we thought this opportunity would add to our group even more.
INTERVIEWER: (nodding) And Woozi, how do you feel with Cyana's addition as the group's main producer? How has her addition changed the way you guys work?
WOOZI: (hesitating) It was an adjustment we all had to make, like any other circumstance where you work with new people. She fit well in our songs and I was happy to try out new combinations for harmonies. Her addition unlocks a whole new area of possibilities.
INTERVIEWER: I see. (flipping her script) Fans have showed much discourse over the new addition to the group, going as far as saying Cyana will bring bad publicity to SEVENTEEN. Cyana, what's your reaction to all this?
CYANA: (frowning slightly) I- um, I haven't been online much while preparing for my debut and comeback, but I suppose any negativity is expected. People are often skeptical of new things.
INTERVIEWER: And does that deter you in any way?
S.COUPS: I think we can move on to another-
CYANA: (putting a hand on his knee) It's okay. No, it doesn't deter me in any way. I'm only working harder to prove that new things can be great things as well.
DK: Ya! SEVENTEEN will be even greater with Cyana.
INTERVIEWER: That's very brave of you. Now, we'll enter into a rapid fire question segments of questions fans have left on our online forum. Dino, who would you pick - Jeonghan or Mingyu?
DINO: Jeonghan.
MINGYU: Wow, not even a moment's hesitation, huh.
INTERVIEWER: S.Coups - favourite member?
S.COUPS: Jeonghan.
INTERVIEWER: Wow, Jeonghan's quite popular. Cyana, most attractive looking member?
CYANA: (caught off-guard) Umm... Vernon? I don't know. (panics)
INTERVIEWER: Another one for Cyana - what's it like living with the boys? Any TMIs?
CYANA: It's all very normal. (lowkey judging the questions) It's like we're roommates. No TMIs.
INTERVIEWER: Another one for Cyana - who would you date out of-
S.COUPS: (cuts her off) I think that's enough for now- (pointing behind the camera at staff) They're telling us that time's up.
JOSHUA: So sorry~ (waves at the camera) We've got to do our goodbye, hyung.
S.COUPS: Say the name!
SVT (as a whole): SEVENTEEN!
S.COUPS: This has been SEVENTEEN, thank you so much for watching.
INTERVIEWER: (just a bit pissed) Yes, this has been SEVENTEEN, their new mini album You Make My Dawn comes out soon, please look forward to it!
︶⊹︶︶୨୧︶︶⊹︶︶⊹︶︶୨୧︶︶⊹︶︶⊹︶︶୨୧︶︶⊹︶︶⊹︶︶୨︶

Came across this reel and now I just gotta ask, thoughts on svt and spitting kinks 👀 like maybe most to least likely into it? Or just thoughts on perf unit doing if you want 😩
!! mentions of: spit kink
MOST LIKELY: jun, joshua, seungcheol, mingyu, soonyoung
honestly seems like the best fit for these specific members. would be such a turn on for them, feeling a special kind of ownership over you when they spit in your mouth or on your needy holes. they might even want you to spit in their mouth, wanting to feel the humiliation (and arousal) that comes with the act.
NEUTRAL: minghao, jeonghan, vernon, dino, wonwoo
i think these members would be pretty neutral when it comes to spit kinks. not too eager to try, but not against it either. these members would be a bit of a wild card, and might be open to the idea. they may be interested in the idea of experimenting with it if you bring it up.
LEAST LIKELY: jihoon, seungkwan, seokmin
these members just don’t seem like the type to have a spit kink in my opinion. it might seem a bit disrespectful to them, or it might be a turn off. they’d never judge you for bringing it up or wanting to try it out, but i think it wouldn’t be their cup of tea.
taglist: @jeonghanpill , @bangantokchy , @caratboy , @bewoyewo , @luvseungcheol , @wonvsmile , @haolovre , @aaniag , @writingbarnes , @dokyeomkyeom , @allieyaaa
