i love that every time you get into a new fandom you end up creating the most charming little guy that everyone loves dearly. it happened with town of salem, it happened with madness combat, and its happening now with lethal company. you hold all the power in your hands.
I keep making lads. Making lads who have a Situation going on is my ultimate power.
Jon/Jonsonist - lad but lives in the Town of Salem
Grant - lad but tiny
Banksy "Banks" J. Wimbleton - lad but he is Hank J. Wimbleton's secret twin brother
And now, Beeter - lad but they is a hybrid of a monster and human
What can I say? They're lads!

Frank, if you could travel to any celestial body in the observable universe, where would you go? i’d go to the oort cloud :)
I wouldn't necessarily go out there! I have no idea how the physics works, but it doesn't look like the Oort cloud would be hospitable.
There are two kinds of "celestial body in the observable universe," IMO. The one I'm thinking of is, like, the earth, moon, etc. All of the stuff we're familiar with. It's a "star" in the sense that it generates all kinds of light and heat, and it makes up what we call "the sky." It's the sort of thing we're "observing" from earth -- the sort of thing that has an associated "universe." In astronomy, such celestial bodies are often called stars.
"Nonstellar objects" are things that don't do anything like this. They don't really have an "associated universe" except for, perhaps, what their existence "generates." Nonstellar bodies can be stars, planets, asteroids, nebulae, moons, etc.; there are even planets in the "interstellar medium" which are not associated with any stars, and do not light the way. (One such planet, discovered in 1995, is called "EGN-zur." It was given the name in 1996, in order to honor the European Space Agency's space mission which first discovered it.)
"Nonstellar" bodies don't get to take "stars" for granted. One reason is that "stars" usually mean "things where light is produced, or where light is produced and a planet can be "seen through" that light." In an "assumed void" with no stars, what is there to see? If no one can observe it, no one can learn about it. The lack of stars is not trivial: here is an astronomer talking about what she has learned by trying to observe voids and nebulae, from the vantage point of having a "star."
The second reason nonstellar bodies aren't "associated with stars" is that they're the stuff of science fiction. "Star Wars" is a place where you can "see into a planet's gravity," but planets (as we imagine them, at least) can't "see you." To make this a little bit clearer, we have no way of knowing whether anything in the "assumed void" surrounding us was ever a planet, because planets no longer exist. If we don't know what the stuff in the assumed void was, we can't be sure if it's alien, like a world in a science fiction story, or something we'd never be able to "see."
In that sense, nonstellar objects are "more real" than stars: they may be "weird," but there's no reason to be certain we could observe their existence.
I mean, there's another sense, too, and that sense has to do with "what would I think" about a "star" (which is a special kind of celestial body, in this sense of the term).
I am sure I would think something very different from what you'd think of a "star" if I'd come across one. It would have no associated universe. It would be something I would never be able to see, or even imagine.
But there's another sense in which stars are special. A star is a celestial body that we know of, and are able to understand. We are able to say, "oh, that star is a star," because we're familiar with the type of thing we're talking about. In that sense, stars aren't a special kind of nonstellar thing, and nonstellar objects are a special kind of stellar thing.
We could imagine an alien that didn't "look like a planet" in the usual way, with a moon, or with an atmosphere, or a magnetosphere, etc. -- but it would still, in some way, "look like a star." It would still be "luminous," in the way that stars are, which means that at night I could still be aware of the fact that it is there, and what it is, and that the moon and the stars aren't the only things I could be aware of. This alien would be no different than all the other alien worlds we might see in the "assumed void": the only difference would be that I would have no idea what I was "seeing."
So to me, my preferred "celestial body in the observable universe," would be an alien world that, in some way, looked like a "star." It would have some kind of associated structure, but I wouldn't know what it was. It would have some kind of associated motion, but I wouldn't know what it was. In some sense, there would be nothing there (a void with no stars), but in some other sense it would have some sort of luminous thing there, and that thing would have something that might, in time, be understood as "luminous structure" (the moon), "structure of atmosphere" (the red part of Mars, and Venus), or "structure of magnetosphere" (certain kinds of solar flares).
There is a lot of variation here; for instance, I wouldn't even necessarily want this world to be on an axis and orbiting something, but it might have to be so, or it might not, or it might be orbiting something much like a moon but not an axis at all, etc. (Something like the "red spot" on Mars.) I don't know which options I like best, and it's not entirely clear to me that one way or another, it is better.
I think about this a lot. I think about it the way people think about "natural" vs. "artificial" selection, or what people have always thought of as "organic" vs. "inorganic" life.
(Of course, the Earth and the other "stars" in our "assumed void" don't really have atmospheres, so this line of thought might seem to be kind of backwards.)

Apologies if this is a strange question Sir, but is there someone in your group that you favor more? Actually, what are your thoughts on all your loyal guards?
"A truly proficient warlord cannot neglect any means of war he has. All of them excel at different kinds of battle, be it brute force, espionage or terror tactics. Still, I'll be honest as always, I do favour Sander, my Carnifex a little. He may be not blessed with much intellect, alas, but he's the most executive and is a true warrior who will never fear to face any heretic."

1. Three ships: Sonuckles, Gorai, and Narumitsu. I'm not always a shippy person; it depends on the media. If it's really focused on family like Rise of the TMNT, I don't get in a shippy mood.
2. First ever ship. Oh god I dunno. Sonamy? I think Sonamy. Man times change. I'm not at all into that ship anymore.
3. Last song: I Was Just a Kid by Nothing But Thieves. I'm listening to it as I'm typing this out lol.
4. Last movie: full watch was Glass Onion because my friends had a big watch party for it. Partial rewatch was the Rise movie (because I'm like always rewatching parts or all of that thing lol).
5. Currently reading: Iiiiii have not been reading a whole lot recently due to brain issues. I'm slooooowly making my way through I'm Telling The Truth but I'm Lying by Bassey Ikpi and Cognitive Therapy for Personality Disorders: a Schema-Focused Approach by Jeffrey E. Young. Also some of Manic-Depressive Illness: Bipolar Disorders and Recurrent Depression by Frederick K. Goodwin and Kay Redfield Jamison because I'm doing research for a fic. And I guess The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders? If you can't tell I'm super into abnormal psychology lmao.
6. Currently watching: Rise of the TMNT. Like all the time. I rewatch random episodes and I'm also slowly going through it in chronological order with my partner.
7. Currently consuming: a protein shake. Not the tastiest thing ever but I had no appetite this morning and needed the nutrients.
8. Currently craving: y'know, the usual things--the demise of capitalism, climate restoration, chocolate chip cookies. I'm a simple guy.
Tagging: oh man I feel so nervous about tagging people. Do I have to? uhhhhh ok I'll pick some mutuals at random. @phantomruby @zonerz , @destructix , @jenny-yesac , @drawingdeamon , and @coelpts . No obligation, only if you wanna!

ever worried you’ll get dehydrated?
“I know roughly how it works, so I could repair it myself if I had tae... but I’m a captain, not a mechanic! I figure we’d always have enough stocked up, but now ye’ve gone and put the thought in my head... maybe we should get some secondary barrels, for safety..”

were you the one who recommended psychopomp and feed the horses by thank you scientists to her followers? and if so thank you (scientist) and do you have any other song recs please
that was me yes!! i'm really glad you liked them :) if you want recs for other good TYS bangers i'd say Swarm, Carnival, and Creature Comforts are absolute ragers. if you want recs that are like, just, other bands i like, i'm down. my only concern is that every recommendation i've ever gotten based on liking tys has been a huge miss for me. i think Native Construct and Haken and BTBAM are just sooooo whatever and Dream Theater is like such a sometimes mood. BTBAM concerts are fucking crazy though jesus christ. i regret not going into the pit
anyway i'm rambling but if you're anything like me you will probably like the albums Talk Memory by BADBADNOTGOOD, Polygondwanaland by King Gizzard, and probably anything The Mars Volta has ever released (you can't go wrong with their debut, De-Loused in the Comatorium like rewired my damn brain)
if you want my other recs that aren't anything like Thank You Scientist but still somehow fit into a nonsense framework of "these carry similar vibes" which i've invented and will not explain: Hiatus Kaiyote makes really great stuff. their song Lace Skull is like soooooo damn good when it gets to its final climactic bit. i also have to shout out Yukari Telepath by Coaltar of the Deepers which my gf put me onto it's so rad. i'm sorry i just started typing and couldn't stop. i hope you enjoy, like, at least some of these lol???

so, i guess bees really like caramel. learned this through experience(?) because one landed on my lips and tried to get to the caramel apple lollipop i was already eating the other day (bee was fine, i let them do their little bee thing but i think it tried to bite me/eat the caramel it could get so i left the area afterwards)
Oh yes, bees like pretty much any kind of sugar! Very rude to try to share your food without asking, though.

Heyo! It's been really cool, I've watched the series several times and even mostly frame by frame, haha.
I love the AAHW so much! I am obsessed with them.
I know you probably meant main character though, so I'll say Deimos.

memory check! what can you remember about the real world, gordon?
The year is You-Know-What. My name is Gordon Barnabas Freeman, and I’m divorced and I have a son named Joshua. He’s five and he loves cowboys more than anything. I broke my arm when I fell off a roof in senior year, I threw up at a Showbiz Pizza, I shouldn’t take off the necklace, and there’s a letter I need to open.
How’d I do?
