Celebrating STEM Day

The eighth of November is STEM Day (or STEAM Day), an occasion to celebrate the fields of Science, Technology, Engineering, Maths (and the Arts). To celebrate STEM Day, I’m reading Women in Science: Fifty Fearless Pioneers Who Changed the World, written and illustrated by Rachel Ignotofsky (Ten Speed Press, 2016). This fascinating non-fiction book for young readers perfectly demonstrates the…

Sarah Boone (née Sarah Marshall; 1832 – 1904) was an African-American inventor. On April 26, 1892, she obtained United States patent number 473,563 for her improvements to the ironing board. Boone's ironing board was designed to improve the quality of ironing the sleeves and bodies of women's garments. The ironing board was very narrow, curved, and made of wood. The shape and structure allowed it to fit a sleeve and it was reversible, so one could iron both sides of the sleeve.

You know how people say that we already have pixal Nya Jay and sora being interested in mechs and technology or smth? That it’s like so many of them have the same hobbie or smth?

I kinda feel like Jay could be excluded from it. I KNOW I KNOW he was introduced as an inventor or smth, but ngl I feel like barley saw him construct or invent stuff through out the series? At least def not as much as Nya pixal or sora. Like Nya and pixal are the samurai x girlies and Nya was even a mechanic before and all that- they were doing much more. And then there’s sora who, yeah you get my point.

This isn’t hate to Jay, im just saying that hes really at least not at the same level as the others or THAT characterized as an inventor or tech guy. Sure he knows some stuff and is kind of interested, I do think naya and him bond over that. But he’s not really part of the group that’s always creating mechs and stuff.

Edit : ok I wanna mek sure ppl understand 😭 I understand that aspect of his character is kind of there, but I myself just feel like the writers didn’t show enough of that side of him which makes me less sure about how we also call him an inventor or tech and all. It’s a cool part of his character and I don’t think they should take that away, I just think they already DID take it away, making it kinda hard to group him with the other girls who have been shown to be much more prominent with that, uk?

Our changing selves throughout the decades.

Once again, Izuku should have been allowed to interact with Hatsume or other nonconventional characters more often. He always has his best breakthroughs when he does.

Look, I get 1A is important to Izuku, but outside of the Hosu Trio and post first war arc Ochako, Class 1A is full of very conventional, thinking inside the box people. And that combined with Izuku's doormat tendencies when it comes to peer relationships stifles Izuku's character growth.

can i interest you in sharing your wieners siblings headcanons…

ABSOLUTELY!! (mean girls 2024 centric.)

Wieners siblings hc’s! (ft. fetchen!)

~ Gretchen is the older sister but only by 1-2 years. Maybe even shorter, like Irish twins. Do you guys know what Irish twins are? 

~ I could only ever see Gretchen having a little sister.

~ The younger sibling's name would be something fancy like Natalia or Alexandra or Elizabeth. Something long that has an easy nickname. 

~ Younger sibling would be homeschooled after middle school. Gretchen was also given the opportunity but she wanted to stay in public school.

~ They would be very similar but are completely different stylistically. But the younger sibling doesn’t mind wearing stuff in Gretchen’s style and loves to rummage through her closet.

~ The younger sibling would be friends with Karen (and they get on really well) but slightly scared of Regina. Used to be friends with Janis and Damian in middle school but they drifted apart due to getting homeschooled.

~ The younger sibling would be able to pick up that Gretchen had feelings for Karen pretty early on and would tease her for it. Definitely tried to play cupid.

~ They 100% used to do duo halloween costumes. They try their hardest to match now but the younger sibling would urge Gretchen to do a couples costume with Karen.

~ On the topic of halloween parties: People who knew Gretchen’s younger sibling in middle school will see them at parties with Gretchen almost 100% of the time. It’s their way of keeping in touch with people.

~ The younger sibling never liked the idea of Gretchen being a part of a clique like the plastics because it changed her. 

~ They get along really well and are each other’s safe person/ fav person other than their respective partners (like karen :3)

~ The younger sibling often third-wheels fetchen hang outs. Not dates though! They have healthy boundaries with each other. Between the three of them it's the healthiest relationships all of them have.

~ Karen gets invited on Wieners family holidays.

(if anyone wants to ask any questions abt this or if i think anything else pls let me know im always willing to expand my list of hc's.)

Under the cut are mostly self-insert doodles of decreasing quality. Again, not much directly tied to Team Fortress 2. Might as well toss these out while I have no access to my puter. Much yapping under the cut and in the tags incoming.

Another self-insert, this time less of a "here's me as a tenth class" and more of a "here's my game experiences translated into the class I would take the place of". The Cleaner. Although I guess they could still be wearing either suit. It doesn't matter that much.

That one Convict's Case taunt with Backup would be extremely funny, because the man would be on the verge of a breakdown (he does not want to go to jail so bad you have no idea). The second image- I owe no explanation. You know what I am. You see the pattern with my favourites.

The duality of the man. Resting face versus "just heard you express interest in religion/Russian folklore" face. He's not that hard to make friends with, when you pull him away from all the explosions.

Some doodles of trying to figure his face out. Unfortunately, the more I stare at him, the more I worry that he looks like A Certain Guy With The Last Name "Kazarin", and the fear of never being original in my life caught up to me.

Don't look at me, don't perceive me, I refuse to explain any of my actions to you.
