Hendrik (Henni) van Stoerten for @dreambot's loversrock BC

(outfit pics under the cut)

name: Hendrik van Stoerten (Henni is the nickname his band colleagues gave him, he hates it. Seriously don’t call him that casually)

age: 32 (looks older due to substance abuse)

profession: drummer for the “sick sisters”

traits: non-commital, slob, gloomy (additionally because I play with 5 traits per sim: kleptomaniac and music-lover)

Hendrik is actually the last person who would apply to a TV reality show but alas he needs the money.. officially his band colleague Juicy convinced him but let's face it, his gambling problem got reeaally out of hand. He now even owes his "friends" from the biker club (yeah he's that cliché) and got into some serious trouble.

Obviously he's into alternative and metal music and won't accept a lot of other genres if you want to hang and listen to music with him (duh what a snob). He's also a bit geeky and a huge cat person in private. Socially he's kind of an ambivert who needs his me-time but learned how to cope with being constantly around other people on tour. But yeah he's your typical black cat that just disappears from time to time to recharge. His humour is daark, like he's given up on happiness cheerful people annoy him. He also hates being a celebrity and being touched and stalked by fans. After the show he want's to look up the nearest AA group meetings to finally start battling at least one of his addictions (alcohol, nicotine, gambling, other substances in the past with respective scandals). Therapy would also do him some good if you couldn't tell by now he's got depression on top of that but that's such a given in his line of profession and with his celebrity status I wasn't sure this information would even be necessary. So, what do we say?

There's a micro-chip that can be implanted in a human brain that allows a paralyzed person to control a computer by thinking at it

they've moved on to human testing both these dental break throughs: packing a tooth cavity with stem cells that have your own genetic code, and then telling them to become tooth and enamel cells, essentially filling in the tooth hole with healthy tooth material made from your own body's cells. And second, flipping a genetic switch that grows you another full set of teeth! Just like when you were a kid and you got your adult teeth, your genetic plan includes another round of that, but you have a gene the blocks the last one from happening. And they can control it per individual tooth. So if you lost a tooth, or one was too damaged to repair with the stem-cell technique, you could literally just grow a whole new tooth yourself. Like if you knocked some of Wolverine's teeth out, how he would just, like, grow new ones? like that. but slower. We can let people do that now. You know, instead of our current technique of drilling a hole in your skull and screwing in a fake tooth mounted onto a bolt. Or trying to glue dentures to slimy gums. Sorry i'm just super impressed with these two emerging dentistry techniques.

We are very close to being able to grow new organs made of your own body tissue. They can, in fact, already do that with simple organs, like your bladder, and we're closing in on some other more complicated organs. They do it by creating a sort of physical framework of organic material, what is referred to as the organ's scaffold (which all organs naturally have) Then they harvest a few of your stem cells and put them on the scaffold and tell them to become, for example, heart cells, and to self replicate and the cells multiply on the scaffold and become a whole new heart made out of heart tissue that is made out of you, it has your own DNA and everything.

We are starting to have some prosthetic limbs that move by picking up signals from the brain. Which is crazy awesome

Voyager One, containing our greeting to the universe, is 15 BILLION miles from us now. For reference, Pluto is 3 billion miles from us. If we had a telescope that could see it, and Voyager flashed its lights at us, we wouldn't see the light get to us until more than 22 hours later. It has been almost 50 years, but Voyager One (and Two) have been flung far far from us, into the space outside our own solar system.

humans still use the same leather burnishing tool that Neanderthals used. Still preferably made of bone too. I just think that's neat.

I was born in a hospital and everything I own was made in a factory. I own something called a smart phone and some people live to 100.

btw monkey man was a blast, but specifically there's a scene where mr dev patel is working out and a group of hijra women are watching him and i was thinking "no, they'd be cheering and hollering, this is unrealistic" and then he takes his shirt off and the cheering and hollering begins and i was satisfied

hi so i got super sick this past week and instead of like. resting i've been reading the entire hunger au tag and i'm going a bit feral over the idea of watchers decorating their true form with their favorite block and the idea of a future where grian becomes ever so slightly more comfortable with his watcher form and just covers himself in strings of tnt

REALLY GOOD IMAGE

I never expected hope to look like a bunch of old white people driving golf carts blasting Beyoncé in a Barnes and Noble parking lot in the reddest community in America but they’ve got me fully crying on this Saturday night

When it comes to requests I ask for only one thing

(at this point its my identity here)

Feel free if you’re willing to try it and if you do feel free to choose who it is & what they have 😈

SORRY I WENT A LITTLE CRAZY WITH THIS ONE /VVPOS

Let’s just say solving puzzles in the mystery labyrinth can be very exhausting and nauseating (poor Yuma)

[teddybeartoji]

SUGURUS TYPE??? 👀👀

Like Kind/caring, whether he’d like a sorcerer over a non? 👁️👁️

MMMMMMMMMMMMMMM first and foremost i think he likes brats lmao not even in like a sexual manner i just mean that i think he'd like somebody who's not afraid to bark at him a little bc he looves being the one that can reel you in.... i also think he'd like somebody who can fluster a lot he likes to feel like he has all the power I'M SORRY I PROMISE I MEAN ALL OF THIS WELL OK HE LOVES YOU VERY MUCH😭😭😭😭😭

but mmm i think it also depends a little on what kind of suguru we're talking abt bc i think that cult!geto would love a s/o who's sick and twisted just like him maybe a little evil maybe into murder yk all that good stuff buuuut if i'm thinking abt like non-curse!au suguru i think he would really like somebody kind. i think seeing you help others out would make his heart melt very fast.

oh and whether he'd like a sorcerer partner or a non-sorcerer one just depends on the au too. obviously if it's cult!geto he wants you to be a sorcerer too buuuuut hmm if it's geto who never left the jujutsu tech... i'm kind of inbetween actually. bc on one hand if you are a sorcerer at the school with him, maybe you're both teachers there it would make him feel a bit more secure in the sense of he can keep an eye on you more but if you're not a sorcerer he'd be a little worried abt maybe you being used against him in a fight or smth yk? butttt then again maybe you being a non-sorcerer would be good for him... maybe he'd feel like you're his little escape from all the horrors in a way.... and if you are a sorcerer there would always be the fear of you getting hurt during missions too.................................... it's bad all around lmao they both have their pros and cons i can't really give you a solid answer on this one i'm sorry

aaanyway i think that satoru is a very good example of his type actually lmao bratty and clingy, showing your affection by "bothering" him but still getting so easily flustered whenever he's the one initiating anything i think an s/o like that would be so perfect for him

Hi idea

It's send an ask Sunday because I say it is. If your ocs were books on your shelves, what would they be? (You may categorize by actual plot or the covers or the colors of the spine, idc)

omg Owl hello! Thanks so much for the ask, I'm going to answer it in an interpretation that I hope is close to what you meant. :)

Velia would be a slim novel with a compelling story of consequences and fallout that left the reader dazed for the remainder of the day

Antonio would be a large fancy looking tome that was full of clever and fun short stories

Paris would be an old book that's started to come apart at the spine, with a simple but colorful and heartwarming story of a family's journey

Lewis would be a book thick enough to be a potential weapon, maybe deep red. And it would be histories of strikes and power shifts and worker's rights, because he's got a one track mind like that

Fynn would be that book you've had on the shelf for months that you KNOW is your taste but you just haven't gotten to a place to start it. You're slightly scared it's going to change your life, so you postpone the changing. The book judges you slightly.

Send a 'cassette' to see an early childhood memory.

Something whimsical that Jote found love in growing up is singing. To pluck her own vocal cords for a song was a favourite pastime. In another life, she could've been a fine bard outside a fate drenched in inferno.

Singing was a large part of Jote's childhood. When the Phoenix slept moments away after horrific events, she liked to sing to him--though the Undying said he would never hear.

(Here's a secret: he remembers.)

She always sang of myths, made-up stories she wove--of joy, and how beautiful the life he was missing as time fled. She sang of prettiness, how the sky was drenched in the sun's love and then the very beast that the fire is meant to vanquish.

Singing was a constant in the hall of the sanctuary from the little Undying that was her.

And the Undying so did love her for it, her love infectious for this one art bled from the body, in lips parting for it.

And yes, Joshua does ask her to sing to him on their travels in grown adulthood.

Every December for a few years now I feel conflict over whether I should post about the officially liscenced Star Wars Christmas-themed short story collection in order to express how it is actually good stuff despite coming from the Disney's Cash Cow era and random shit with "Christmas" slapped on it being an old & very basic marketing technique. But like it's genuinely so good and steadfastly on the themes of Star Wars throughout. That "defiantly hopeful & optimistic" is the glue holding the whole collection together. How under the jolly red-and-green cover it's a genuine exploration of trauma & loss & inequality. That it not even for a second trivializes the struggles of its characters due to those things. That the only thing that kept me from sobbing reading it was because it takes nothing less than 3 days of heavy stress for me to cry. That I was still 35% of the way to crying. From the Disney's Star Wars Christmas short story collection, that I read a free digital copy of with expectations below the floor for because of the marketing gimmick red flags. But is actually genuinely so good.

I could make a serious Wicked review and talk about the vocals and the choreography and the costumes and the sets, which are all great, but this is tumblr, and I know that all of these aspects will not matter nearly as much as me reviewing the movie by how much gay subtext they put into it, so that's exactly what I'm gonna do.

Elphaba and Glinda are either holding hands or have their arms linked for about 70% of this movie. Literally, after they officially become friends these girls are attached at the hip.

'What Is This Feeling?' remains about as gay as it usually is, but I will highlight that they lie awake at night thinking about each other which. I know what you are etc etc

The scene where they dance together is. I have no words. That was beautiful. Both actresses put so much emotion into the sequence. And there's a moment where Glinda puts her hand on Elphaba's face, almost like she's brushing away the tears there, and that shit made me cry as well.

'Popular' is insanely homosexual. There's a scene where they're laying down on the bed looking into each other's eyes, and Glinda shifts to basically be on top of Elphaba. My jaw was on the floor. Just lots of touching and Looks all throughout.

When they go to see the Wizard all that casual touching I mentioned previously is multiplied by tenfold, and there are several moments where Elphaba looks at Glinda for reassurance, which was very sweet.

'Defying Gravity' made me just as emotional as I knew it would. I do wish they had hugged but honestly with all the handholding and the staring into each other's eyes, and Glinda wrapping the cloak around Elphaba, they gave us plenty. Once again the acting caught me by surprise (specially from Ariana), both of them communicate so much with just looks.

Anyway my overall thoughts are, these bitches gay, good for them. They did not tone down the subtext at all (like I know some people were worried would happen), and while they didn't make anything explicit either (which I never expected them to*), I'm confident that both Cynthia and Ariana understood the assignment in regards to the kind of relationship Glinda and Elphaba have in canon, and that was enough for me.

*I will admit that a secret corner of my little lesbian heart hoped beyond hope that they would include the scene from the book where Elphaba canonically kisses Glinda (iirc it's supposed to be during Defying Gravity), but like, I always knew they wouldn't.
