soooo.... whats spaghettification?
When you get pulled into a black hole, you enter an extremely strong gravity field.
Specifically, the change in gravity is so strong that the part of your body closer to the black hole would be pulled more than the part of your body far away from the black hole. You'd stretch out a little bit.
Then that gravity difference would be even stronger. You'd stretch more.
Then more, and more, until you are a single line of atoms entering the black hole.
That's spaghettification.
#my posts#science#spaghettification#i mostly bring it up to tell people#one of the many reasons we dont know whats inside#or beyond#a black hole#not only are they so far away#but a camera or w/e wouldnt SURVIVE the journey in

#cw injury#delete later#typing this up before i head to the hospital lol#i got pretty injured yesterday in a way that affects my mobility quite a bit#i'm in a lot of pain and the timing of it is just :(((( i had planned to travel next week and#took time off for the first time i started working and now i don't know if i'll be able to 😭 i can barely cross the room w crutches#i think i don't really know how to seek comfort? when i got injured in the first place these people (strangers) like kept me company for#a bit but they mostly talked among themselves and it was really kind of them 😭 but i felt so distant. and even in the moment i felt like i#was failing them for not being able to engage in the conversation properly#i don't think i really know how to ask for help or how to ask for comfort#i don't know how to bring it up with my friends without like joking about it because 😭 they are my friends and they have their own lives#idk. i feel like i'm so detached from everything right now#i want someone to give me a hug and tell me that i've been doing well 😭 and i#want someone to do mundane things with me to take my mind off the pain#but how do you ask for that :')#i don't know so i am airing it anonymously on my kink blog

my friend who went to see the new master and margarita movie, not familiar with the book: what the fuck is going on
me, watching the new master and margarita movie, familiar with the book: what the fuck is going on
#i'm the plot accuracy nerd 🤍#i tried to be objective but turned out i can't#it's hard to be one when the director suddenly decides to bring his own ideas into the adaptation and makes it modern looking#people are mostly saying yeah august diehl was so cool so sexy it's bad margarita is the one naked at the end#i can tell you're missing the point and all that huge budget and these actors are not enough to hide all the fuck ups#and you're ready for this conversation#i can be bitchy for no end when it comes to movies that are supposed to be built on the primary source (the book)#but instead of it directors just borrow the characters and ideas and create it in something absurd#i'm not here to drool over august diehl. i am in fact here to re-experience the story i really love#also someone said that actors were good but i leave it to those who really appreciate it#ps. woland's retinue was dull and bland#master and margarita#for the first rime in a while i felt nothing after watching a movie#neither good nor bad emotions it just wasted my time#как похорошела москва при собянине

I am taking note of every single villager who honestly suggests that Micah's half-monster status might have given his chosen bride cold feet and led to her running away and they are ALL dropping several positions in my internal character ranking.
#rune factory#rf3#so i chose raven in the end. i kind of hate it in that it feels so basic and predictable. she is THE favorite for this game#but unlike say forte i GET the hype for raven. her writing as a character and her relationship with micah was just too good.#that said i have every intention of having a second save for my other fave marian#especially after seeing that some people have unique dialogue for your missing bride. i NEED to know what marjorie will say#about her granddaughter going missing. also theoretically collette. dunno if anyone else will have anything unique#but anyway while she was far from the only person to allude to micah's half-monster form being the problem...#this post was primarily inspired by sakuya. who i felt personally betrayed by#mostly because HER bringing it up as a problem just completely ruined my previously favorite moment with her#i LIKED that she seemed okay that micah was half-monster and was just upset that he didn't trust her enough to tell her#but this one line completely justified it! if you hate/fear monsters enough at this point that even micah is still on the fence...#then he was RIGHT not to tell you and you had the AUDACITY to get upset that he hid it???#literally her having a problem with micah being half monster at this point took her from 3rd in my books to like.#bottom of the 'girls i actually considered marrying' tier. so like. 8 or 9th#especially considering literally yesterday in game i finished her requests.#she had JUST convinced her mom to let her work towards an inn that accepts humans AND monsters#honestly anyone expressing doubts about micah's bride not liking his half monster status post amity fair/unity festival...#feels a bit wrong and incongruous. but sakuya especially?#after completing all her requests? after the FUSS she had about micah not trusting her with his secret?#after she repeatedly used him just for his wool and partially convinced her mom through the logic of 'some monsters can be USEFUL'?#(as opposed to the monsters actually having like. intrinsic worth or rights)#it feels especially inconsistent and regressive. and i hate it

the fanonization of silver the hedghog is crazy because WHERE did people get the out and proud flaming twink characterization from
#I’m mostly talking about like 2000s/2010s characterizations like the ones that are probably offensive. Where the heck did that come from??#like ok I get the fanonization of like silver being like a “cute naive cinnamon roll” type beat#But I cannot tell where the whole “been a gay man for 10 years” thing comes from#My only guess is that it’s because silver is “weak” or seen as weak or pathetic and then gamers decided to characterize him as gay bc of it#but like silver isn’t really weak in 06. every time he gets messed up is because he’s naive#which brings us back to the naive cinnamon roll characterization#I just gotta know how people got to that conclusion#I hc silver as gay mostly based off of that characterization because he doesn’t show romantic attraction to anyone in the games obvi#anyways#sonic the hedgehog#silver the hedgehog#ack#text post

Just curious, where would you recommend starting genealogy research? I’m mostly curious more than anything, thought I don’t think having Native American lineage is likely for me?
Start by talking to your family and writing down as much info as you can. Names of grandparents, great grandparents, aunts, uncles, whatever you can. Birth dates and places they lived as well.
I do genealogy thru ancestry.com and it's mostly great but I know some people have problems with it. You can get a 2 week free trial and you might be able to get plenty of your tree filled out in that time.
Then, just put in what info you got from your parents, and look for census records. US Census records from 1950 and earlier are public, so start there. I was able to go back to my gg grandfather just thru censuses, and then I was able to find his Dawes card. I have gone back further but the farther back it goes the less reliable anything is. Be wary of anything on ancestry or other sites where the only source is someone else's tree, because people can put whatever they want down and a lot of it is wrong. [For example, on other parts of my tree it's tried to connect me to pocahontas 3 times.]
Ofc this advice doesn't just apply for those looking for native ancestry, it's just general genealogy stuff and it's really interesting for anyone to learn about their ancestors (:
Sorry this might be specific to the US, I'm not familiar with how records work elsewhere.
Good luck!
#asks#id advise against the dna test mostly. its really just a novelty#and its only actual use is in the case of adopted people who can connect to bio family. or otherwise to connect to cousins and such#the dna makeup thing is just a novelty.#specifically for native stuff. dna cannot prove tribal ties at all. genealogy is the only.way to do that#as in the dna test cant tell you youre cherokee. it might say indigenous americas north but not cherokee#also there are many many cases where dna shows native american traces with absolutely no proof of that in the genealogy#which just shows that it kinda guesses#or in some cases people [hello] can have genealogical proof of native ancestry#but have none show up on a dna test. so it cant prove one way or the other#and im kinda tired of people bringing ot up to say 'see they arent native the dna test showed that' when that isnt actually proof#stop trying to legitimize dna when it comes to tribal identity. its entirely not relevant.#reconnecting#i know this isnt specifically native reconnecting but maybe the genealogy info makes it good to have in the tag

I was reminded of the time that tumblr tried to make "monster high but with tumblr sexymen", and one of the characters was (obviously) the daughter of the once-ler.
And the funny thing to me about that is that in the canon of the illumination lorax movie, the once-ler is heavily implied to have an estranged daughter. I don't know all the sexymen off the top of my head but I think he might've been one of the only ones referenced in that trend who actually had a daughter in his own canon.
#Stupid shit#I'm gonna provide context in the tags for those who want it but I also like the idea of just leaving it there#Okay so for anyone who wasn't in the fandom: when people say the movie gave us no one to ship the Once-ler with they were LYING#The movie gave the Once-ler no MALE characters to ship him with - thus Oncest started#However - the second most popular Once-ler ship was between him and Norma#(Who - if you haven't seen the movie in a while - is Ted's grandmother who tells him about the Once-ler and how to find and barter with him#This was mostly just a ship born from theory and logical deduction - why does Norma know so much personal info about the Once-ler?#Were they perhaps friends? Lovers? In the past? Where was she in his life and at what points? When did she leave?#And people started making theories and shipping the two - primarily as past lovers. But there was art of them reconnecting for sure.#HOWEVER - this also meant that there was a theory that Ted's mom was also related to the Once-ler#As in - hmm this daughter of a very short fat woman is oddly tall and thin... hmmm#And so the running theory wasn't just that the Once-ler and Norma were once lovers - but that the Once-ler was also Ted's grandfather#Who was entirely estranged from the family due to self-exile and possibly bad blood between him and Norma at some point during his downfall#(I actually do think that it's funny that the Once-ler's youngest design purposefully draws some comparison between him & the Truffula tree#Only for the character theorized to be his daughter to also evoke some Truffula tree imagery in her design)#ANYWAYS that was a theory for about as long as the movie was out - Normaler (the ship) was a thing for as long (if not longer) than Oncest#And was present enough that there were like actively flame wars between the two groups of shippers#Like literally I directly remember this it's so insane to me that no one ever brings this up when talking about the shipping in this fandom#BUT THEN!!!! The Lorax comes out on DVD. The fandom rejoices and everyone takes pictures of themselves buying or holding the DVD.#If you dig far enough and I haven't deleted it yet you might find mine. I was in full cosplay wig and all.#Anyways - we have the movie in HD now!! No more cam rip footage!!!#And now we can take high-quality screenshots that truly show off the detail of the backgrounds in this movie#(The fandom loved to gush about how detailed and well-designed the movie's backgrounds were - that wasn't just a throwaway transition)#Only - what's this?????#In one of the shots at the end of the movie - we very briefly get to see the inside of the Once-ler's lurkim - like the living room#AND THERE - IN THE BACKGROUND - ONLY VISIBLE IN HD#IS A PHOTOGRAPH OF A WOMAN WHO SUSPICIOUSLY HAS THE EXACT SAME SILHOUETTE AS NORMA#Normaler fans rejoice and 'Grandpa Once-ler' theory is accepted into canon (or - more accurately - 'implied canon') by most fans#So yes - for those keeping track - while the evidence wasn't as concrete as it could have been#The Once-ler is implied to have been the father of Ted's mom in the movie

i wonder if there's the potential for a solution to the doxxing fucking over marginalized people specifically thing and/or the some people only being able/knowing where to engage with community online thing if we we were able to like. weaponize the relative lack of actual anonymity in the opposite direction.
like for one thing, instead of doxxing just resulting in problems from others in person, using that information to actively support the person instead, and for another for the other potentially more targeted use of the internet to find people to engage with in person (although that one you'd have to be even more careful about in case it worked in the opposite direction. I'm just thinking it would be nice to have something more structured/widespread than happening to find out your internet friends are in your local area, that could potentially be used to circumvent people not meeting in third spaces/other issues people have initially finding local community in person.)
It would be nice if instead of exclusively finding offline solutions/telling people how to be more careful we could also use what's often part of the problem to our advantage when it does happen. Like, having a way to address it that isn't only preventative.
#no idea whether it's actually practical im essentially just thinking outloud#if we could have another pokemon go thing where people have the opportunity to#encounter each other on a friendly basis in person because of their phones that would also be nice#idk how you'd do some of this in a way that's actually 'safe' though#mypost#the doxxing response thing would have to be either like. a general cultural shift which is probably very unlikely#or a targeted attempt to support people affected that extends to their local area#and the other would kind of just require people to be fine with telling people online roughly where they are it seems like#unless there's some additional vetting process or something you could use first#which would obviously have a bunch of risks + more for some people than others#but like. part of my personal situation re online safety#is that a. i've already been on here and posting shit since i was a younger teen#and it would be practically impossible to make my normal social media doxx-proof to begin with#and b. none of my political opinions or me being trans or anything are exactly a secret in person#so anything someone could try to harass me with in person would either be trying to just like. embarass me in general i guess (useless)#telling people something they already know (also useless)#lying (could cause mostly temporary problems with the wrong person at most)#swatting (okay yeah this one could cause problems if they're stupid enough#to fall for it but also i don't really think there's anything to be done about it)#or other threats to my physical safety (people can do that anyway considering how outwardly visible i am about my#opinions/being trans/etc + that would require them to be in my phsyical proximity as well)#so basically my threat model for internet security is way more lax on General Social Media than a lot of people would think it should be#and i've used the same url for events i've attended in person#but considering that people could definitely find me if they really wanted one way or the other + there's nothing really. secret? on here.#like. there's stuff i wouldn't randomly bring up in conversation but none of this is something i'm actively hiding really#and then if there's something i do want to use the internet for but want to keep Secret secret from my irl identity#that's just a whole different account that i'm creating#tldr you can't realistically intimidate me by threatening to reveal information that's already public knowledge#i guess maybe once i move i'll have to reconsider whether i want to try a new threat model since some of the infomation people would be abl#to get easily would be outdated but i also almost prefer it to stay mostly a moot point so people can't effectively use it as leverage

It's so hard to be happy in society as a neurodivergent differently wired person, even on here. As someone who loves to write incredibly complex self-inserts, at least half the time when I come on here, there is several multi-thousand word note posts that are making fun of those very types of things. It's all that I have, too. I click the block button but apparently the general consensus of opinion seems to be the same no matter how much people you do or don't let in since everyone thinks the same.
#I'm trying so hard to be at least somewhat decently stable every day without constantly feeling like#I'm fighting the iron well of God by opening up the majority of apps#people deserve to be happy or at the very least to feel somewhat stable no matter how they think or what brings them comfort but you#wouldn't be able to tell by looking at most social media.#I've pretty much cut out all fandom consumption at this point mostly except for the bare minimum#and I still can't escape the amount of critique that neurodivergent more creative people like me get

celies whole 'i'm tired of being underestimated'/'i'm not really sick i just look that way' thing does get my goat because the former does not necessitate the latter. no reason she can't be sickly and still be underestimated. as a sickly guy myself it's always like ...wow... thank you for that
#like i think there is potentially something to be said for lumateran ideals regarding good health like their cultural norms don't really --#seem to allow for permanent disability (& i don't know that this is especially well-supported by the text bc it mostly comes from froi; but#i think the celie-lucian-finn povs do read like people who have trouble comprehending disability without fault) & i do think it's telling -#that within the narrative the only two characters with permanent disabilities (garg&raf) are 1. not lumateran and 2. disabled as a result o#being like. unjustly punished. like outside of that there's just satch. and we know what froi had to say abt him at first. & i think it's -#reasonable to assume he would've picked that up in sarnak. but there's no way a take like that didn't come up in three yrs and there's#no point where he's reflecting on anything perri or trev had to say to him on the matter (& they always have something to say) which i woul#argue suggests at the very least that even if they were mildly disapproving they let that shit slide!!#anyway all that to say i think this contextualises celie's belief that she has to be healthy to be able to do anything (we could bring zara#into this but i've gone on too long). eye think (bc im projecting) that celie has coeliac disease. it's plausible b4 i was diagnosed i#genuinely didn't realise i just thought every1 felt like that all the time so i think she could do it. + it's funny 2 me on a personal leve

I'm forcing all of you people to see the "Hiroshi's memories" scene from "Shin-Chan The Adults Strike back"because I love this movie with all my heart and it deserves more recognition.
#No joke This might be my favorite movie prior#It has so many good scenes between this one and the race to save the XXI Century#It's also like really funny#Which makes sense since the Shin-Chan franchise is mostly a comedy#I want to make a big post talking about this movie both to get people to see it and to taalk about my love for it#The movie is about how living in the nostalgia and getting stuck in the past can be both beutifull and harmfull#and how no mather how bad life might get everything will past and it's worth living because you get to spend life with people who love you#Shin chan#crayon shin chan#Anime#Animation#Movie#It's a shame that the Shin-Chan franchise only got popular on Japan and Spain because they got some banger movies#and like almost all of them have some level of LGTB Rep#Boo-chan one of Shin-chan's friends is autistic nobody ever brings it up or treats him diferently#This franchise is great and I love it with all my soul if you coudn't tell by the fact that the first drawing I posted#was related to one of the movies#movie#Film#Animated Movie#Anime movie

#been thinking about genetics and nature vs nurture and all this sort of stuff a lot lately#and just contemplating why people are the way they are and how much is sort of hardwired vs learned etc.#anyway I'm definitely wayyyy more like my dad than my mom and i think i have actually learned to become sort of the ideal companion#for people like my mom#because my mom is the harder to please and stronger personality in the household who is way more obviously emotional and sensitive#and i empathized with her automatically in a sort of female solidarity way as the household is all boys otherwise#but anyway i know im just naturally like my dad in disposition and humour and looks and everything else but i also know i probably studied#how he handles my mom and her outbursts and insecurities and learned to react to it similarly to him as well#she's a very odd mix of one of the most empathetic kindest people you'll ever meet and also incredibly critical and sensitive to criticism#and she barely ever will tell you you did a good job at anything and will point out mostly only the bad stuff or flaws in whatever you do#yet also HATES that her own mom is exactly the same way and was traumatized by that growing up herself#i honestly 100% believe her mom (my grandma) is undiagnosed autistic and simply doesnt even realize how she comes off but it really#affected my mom growing up and now she is constantly on alert for anything that could possibly be a critique of her and will throw you#under the bus instead if you ever say something even remotely close to negative about her or arent extremely thoughtful about showing up#to the multiple events she hosts every single week#anyway the way my dad usually reacts is just being extremely quiet and steady and dry humoured in reaction to this and when she starts#critiquing him and bringing up all his past failures as a way of making herself feel better about her own bad self esteem he kind of just#takes it and doesnt take it personally because he knows shes doing it for low self esteem reasons#even though its not really fair to him and she would absolutely hate anybody doing the same to her#when i think of my dad's gentle quietness and humour and how much he hates being aggressive or critical i think of when we played a#board game called qwelf once and in the game he was made to act like a drill sergeant and scold and yell at all of us as we moved#our pieces around the board and the best he could do was to mutter stuff like 'get your buns in gear there soldier!'#it makes me lol to remember it my god he simply can't it's the most unnatural thing for him in the world#anyway i always wonder how much of my similarities to him are just genes and how much are learning from him#by watching and admiring and mimicking#because having nieces shows me that kids are absolutely little sponges who try to do everything they see you doing without even knowing#if it's a good thing to be mimicking or not and that can be a bit of a terrifying responsibility as the adult#i am glad i learned good coping mechanisms from dad and how to handle unfair criticism and lack of praise in stride as well but#something i had to teach myself as an adult was how to have healthy boundaries and be assertive when i feel like im being treated poorly#because my parents are both huge people pleasers who struggle with it themselves

just complaining keep scrolling but. love when my mom turns around and invalidates my entire cultural heritage thank you mama I also love colonialism and assimilation
#she was like. oh you were raised with significant influence of palestinian culture? name one (1) thing. you're not arab#OK? then why do you tell people I am.#and it's like. yeah we've assimilated a lot bc sitti chose not to teach her kids arabic#but it's not like she discouraged them from it. my aunts chose to learn#and my dad chose not to but he's encouraged me to learn and talk to sitti about her life in bethlehem#when he HAS discouraged me from our culture it's mostly been bc he thinks the political situation is hopeless#and he doesn't want me to get caught up in it. which I disagree with but that's not the point#the point is I'm entitled to reconnection. I'm entitled to my cultural heritage!#ultimately I think my elders' decision to just not talk about it was not their choice to make#anyway how dare she#she doesn't know what it's like to beg for scraps of your identity#it's insane that I feel so ashamed just casually bringing up palestine with my own family who is from there and has traveled there. why!#why did they isolate me from the community like that it wasn't their decision to make!!!!!!#why can they give it up so easily I don't understand#my mom is like it's fine to engage with the other half of your culture! as long as you don't do anything beyond cook food ofc

soon i wont even be vagueposting about my pain anymore im just gonna start posting in detail like my blog is a journal.
#many topics but one of them is impossible to talk about here because person in question will see. next topic then#i relistened to two audio messages my ex-classmate sent me when i was still in middle school and in love with her and i want to cry! great.#im the reason we drifted apart‚ is what causes the pain mostly.#im so terrible at starting conversations it caused our entire friendship to end. our four year friendship#we had so many intimate moments together and heartfelt conversations and told each other things we never spoke a word about to any other/#/person in our lives and i was the reason it all ended just because of the stupid fear i have that if i send a message first i'll be/#/annoying. by god i accidentally ended a four year friendship out of fear of it ending#one thing i hate about my tendencies is my overworrying over every little action i take.#i know that if a person i talk to is worth being a friend with‚ they'll forgive these little mistakes i'll make‚ but the idea of being/#/imperfect is so terrifying to me that i cant even bring myself to talk to someone unless they explicitly tell me its okay.#and on top of that i need it constantly too.#the thing is i hate this. i hate that i cant. i know its illogical and im making up things to be afraid of but i cant stop.#its that if im imperfect that means the person in front of me has a chance to hate me and that thought is so terrifying i choose to not/#/interact at all#i hate to admit i silently pray for a few specific people to interact with me every day because i know i couldn't do it myself#the way this is is because if they interact with me first that means i can be sure they want it! theres no other way to be sure#and i dont even know why i need to be sure. i know i dont. i can just attempt conversation and go away if they'd rather not talk to me#i just. its terrifying#let me summarize. what if they hit me with the beam#basically.#♚ — vent !#vent tw#tw vent#ask to tag

#can you tell I smoke weed?#often i will bring a can of seltzer around with me if it’s gonna be hot or whatnot cause im autistic and the only way I don’t end up#dehydrated beyond all hell is through the continuous consumption of seltzer water#I don’t actually smoke cigarettes#only when trying to impress hot people but mostly I keep em around to give to folks on the street when they ask me for one cause like life#is hard enough like that and I don’t always have money to give but I can always offer folks a smoke and usually it is a good way to strike#up a conversation. plus punk rockers always need a fag carrier (guy who always has a ciggie)
