Update:

I'm still homeless...

BUT-

My undertale phase got rekindled and is now taking over my brain.

I've got nothing but fresh on the brain.

I've been infected by the parasite.

I don't know if this is a cry for help or not.

It's also turning into a timeline au at this point I think.

Have some doodles of the shenanigans me and my friend have created.

There's more but it's unfinished.

Me: you can’t be obsessed with a fandom if you haven’t seen any of the source material. You can’t hyperfixate on something you’ve never seen before. Don’t do it. Don’t write anything for it.

Also me: hey so what if this character died?? What if this character was deathly afraid of something and was helped by their found family? What if this character then claimed that he hated his found family and then they died??

Totally normal if they had no powers and nothing interesting ever happened ignore Kaine he’s just like that

Caleb from lads has only fueled my urge to write dark content and so has Isagi and Bachira ofc

WHERE'S that tweet thats like the human body is awesome because i could do ⅜ths of a backflip right now and eat shit on the sidewalk

Dancing with the stars….au…..please I beg

I literally know nothing about dance (aside from ballet for a few years as a kid and some Irish dance and a few weeks of a ballroom workshop at 16) or the show behind clips I've seen/been made to watch but my brain demands it.

I currently have three ideas.

1. Lando is the celebrity, and he falls for his dance partner.

2. Lando and his Love Interest are both professionals on the show. They're highly competitive, trying to win and out so each other but really they just have big massive crushes on each other.

3. Lando is a professional and falls in love with his celebrity dance partner or another celeb on the show

What do u do when a piece of media infects you wholley but there are exactly zero people I know who have interacted with this media and as far as I know basically no one online has heard of it

[starrspice]

Ok but with Sun and Moon's dialogue in the DLC all I can think about is Yzma's scrapped song from Emperor's New Groove

And moon destroying any source of light

[eepypigeon]

al dente

i have a truth to confess. i am personally not a segmania bandwagoner. i am actually a segments truther. it sounds so good in the theme song. im sorry youtube commenters. segmania is a bit much

New strain of covid that makes you obsessed w caroline polachek

[riggedbones]

ii need to find more spiderverse blogs to follow that dont suck. i mean

[curesforwritersblock]

there’s probably someone way smarter than me who can explain it better but kendrick lamar’s halftime show was an amazing performance piece that goes beyond a “super bowl halftime show”

the american flag motifs? uncle sam telling him his art is too ghetto and essentially too “black”? praising him for doing a censored disney song instead? AND DOING IT ALL IN FRONT OF THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES???

and oh yeah he called drake a pedophile in front of the entire nation

What they don't tell you about writing is that as you write, you discover scenes and entire plots that you hadn't accounted for that need to be written. So you can spend two hours writing and editing only to realise you're further away from the finish line than you thought you were when you started

There's this sort of anthropomorphizing that inherently happens in language that really gets me sometimes. I'm still not over the terminology of "gravity assist," the technique where we launch satellites into the orbit of other planets so that we can build momentum via the astounding and literally astronomical strength of their gravitational forces, to "slingshot" them into the direction we need with a speed that we could never, ever, ever create ourselves. I mean, some of these slingshots easily get probes hurtling through space at tens of thousands of miles per hour. Wikipedia has a handy diagram of the Voyager 1 satellite doing such a thing.

"Gravity assist." "Slingshot." Of course, on a very basic and objective level, yes, we are taking advantage of forces generated by outside objects to specifically help in our goals. We're getting help from objects in the same way a river can power a mill. And of course we call it a "slingshot," because the motion is very similar (mentally at least; I can't be sure about the exact physics).

Plus, especially compared to the other sciences, the terminology for astrophysics is like, really straightforward. "Black hole?" Damn yeah it sure is. "Big bang?" It sure was. "Galactic cluster?" Buddy you're never gonna guess what this is. I think it's an effect of the fact that language is generally developed for life on earth and all the strange variances that happen on its surface, that applying it to something as alien and vast as space, general terms tend to suffice very well in a lot more places than, like... idk, botany.

But, like. "Gravity assist." I still can't get the notion out of my head that such language implies us receiving active help from our celestial neighbors. They come to our aid. We are working together. We are assisted. Jupiter and the other planets saw our little messengers coming from its pale blue molecular cousin, and we set up the physics just right, so that they could help us send them out to far stranger places than this, to tell us all about what they find out there.

We are assisted.

And there is no better way to illustrate my feelings on the matter than to just show you guys one of my favorite paintings, this 1973 NASA art by Rick Guidice to show the Pioneer probe doing this exact thing:

"... You, sent out beyond your recall, go to the limits of your longing. Embody me. ..."

Gravity assist.
