The Angelfish Cluster, M71 // Tom Wildoner

A globular cluster located about 13,000 light years away, M71 is a relatively "young" globular cluster at only about 9 billion years old. Its young age caused astronomers to believe for decades that this was a densely-packed open cluster like M11 rather than a loosely-packed globular cluster.

M71 was not observed by Messier, but instead by his collaborator and friend Pierre Méchain (1744-1804) in 1780, although the astronomer Jean-Philippe Loys de Chéseaux (1718-1751) found it first in 1746.

One of these days I will write a definitive post on why all those "The Justice League meets a Robin and their Mind Is Blown" posts drive me bonkers, but for the interim have a bunch of points:-

The League probably met Dick around the same time they were all fostering their OWN wards. You know the OT Teen Titans existed for a reason, right? RIGHT?

In fact we have versions of the 'League meets Dick' that are literally 'everyone brought their sidekicks in for playtime' (Robin & Batman notably goes straight for this).

When Jason was a Robin, Cynthia Reynolds was literally 14 years old and on the Justice League. You're trying to tell me anyone is going to be mindblown about Jason's existence during Justice League Detroit?? Cindy is right there!!! Nobody thinks Bruce is doing anything unusual!

(Also Cindy's ALSO a runaway from a broken abusive household. Just saying)

When Tim became Robin, not only did a good chunk of the League not even realise Jason had died (because Bruce...didn't tell them) and they assumed Tim was Jason in pants, this confusion between the two existed up until at LEAST 2001 and Quiver.

Also Tim became Robin in one of the messier periods for the Justice League, between JLI, Justice League Europe, Justice League Task Force, Extreme Justice and so on. There were multiple heroes under the age of 20 operating on various Justice Leagues during this period. The only thing anyone ever noticed was whether it was Batman or Nightwing accompanying Robin to the call up event.

Nobody met Steph as Robin. Nobody knew Steph was Robin. It was 71 days (of which three weeks she spent on the bench), the Teen Titans barely realised Steph was Robin. If anyone had any feelings about it that we don't see on page (see Kon's reaction) it was probably in the category of 'eh there are a lot of vigilantes in Gotham these days'.

The Justice League at the time Damian became Robin was... firstly the goddamn mess that ended up resulting in Cry for Justice, and then newly formed one that was led by Dick and Donna. I. Uh. Don't think they were having any of the reactions to Damian that you think other than going "Dick, are you sure you're not doing this as a punishment to yourself? You're allowed to deal with the fact that your father died".

71: What body parts do you find the sexiest?

Your eyes, especially when they’re looking up at me.

Your lips, as they’re being caressed by my fingers.

Your hair, the messier the better.

Your thighs, pressing against my head.

Your chest, when I’m kissing all over it.

Your butt, red from my spankings.

Your neck, as I’m biting it.

Your pussy, as I’m tasting it.

No sé a dónde me conduzca la vida pero tengo la certeza de que hay alguien a quien jamás debo fallar; quizás esta sea la forma más hermosa de comprender la eternidad. #Messieral

16/05/2024: La fecha más importante de cada año llega a mí, esta vez en medio de un proceso complicado y desgastante, para aliviar con todo su poder la interna/externa condición de mi amor más cierto. Las compras, la felicidad, el recuerdo de esa primera luz; esa posible tragedia que devino en el milagro más hermoso de toda mi existencia. La satisfacción, la tranquilidad, la forma más pura de…

Harry was coming home today. You were absolutely giddy. The tour had lasted for nearly a year, and you couldn’t wait to be back in his arms once more. You wore his clothes all of the time (case in point, you were wearing his light blue sweater with a chick on the front), slept on his side of the bed, and did just about everything you could to remind yourself of him. But now, he would finally be back in the flesh.

You were lounging around on your couch, watching bad rom-coms that you were barely paying attention to when you heard the door open.

“Baby, ‘m home!”

You sprinted to the front door, launching yourself at him. Harry laughed and caught you in a giant hug, squeezing you tightly.

“Missed yeh s’ much, m’ love,” he mumbled into your shirt.

“Missed you, too, Har. The house feels too empty without you,” you replied.

He pulled away so he could kiss you, but stopped in his tracks, gently gripping the sweater in his hands.

“Are yeh wearing m’ shirt?” he asked softly.

You nodded, “Yeah. Wear your clothes every day when you’re gone.”

Harry’s expression had turned from a look of love to a look of lust. Seeing you in his sweater and not much else made him want to take you then and there.

“Look s’ fuckin sexy in m’ clothes,” he complemented, “think yeh’d look better with it off, though.”

You giggled, lifting the top over your head and letting it crumple on the ground. All you were wearing underneath was a pair of lace panties, the color matching the sweater. You turned around and began sauntering up the stairs.

“Coming?”

He scrambled to follow you, ushering you up the stairs and into your bedroom before swiftly pressing his lips to yours. You kissed desperately, the pent up lust from your months apart coming to a crescendo as his hands groped your ass roughly.

Harry disconnected your lips to groan, “Missed this, too. Missed having y’ pretty body in my hands.”

“MIssed it too, Har. So much,” you gasped.

Abruptly, he pulled away completely and layed on the bed.

“Come sit on my face, let me show you how much I missed you.”

You were never one to refuse his mouth, so you sauntered over to him, swinging your legs over him so you were straddling him. Harry reached up and tugged your panties down your legs, giving him access to your most intimate area. His tongue traced your glistening folds before dipping into your hole, finally tasting the pussy he had been craving for months on end. You gasped softly, slowly grinding your hips into his mouth.

“Yeah, that’s it, baby, just like that,” you moaned as he tasted you.

He moaned softly at the praise, shooting vibrations through your body as you rubbed your pussy on his face. Harry was getting soaked in your juices, they were covered his nose and chin due to the frantic motions of your hips. Neither of you tended to last very long when you reunited, the months of holding off proving to be too much.

“Gonna cum, Harry,” you warned, reaching down to circle your clit with one of your fingers.

He batted your hand to the side and replaced it with one of his, rolling the swollen nub between his fingers. He licked up the flat of your pussy before dipping his tongue inside of you once more, eating you out with vigor as you approached your release.

“Harry,” you moaned, “shit, babe.”

That was all the warning he got before you came to your orgasm. Harry’s face got even messier with your release, his face absolutely drenched in you. He licked your cunt through your orgasm, getting every taste of you that he could. When you finished, you crawled down his body, placing kisses along his bare skin as you reached his cock.

“Your turn.”

Spiral Galaxy M66 from Hubble Image Credit: NASA, ESA, Hubble, Janice Lee; Processing & Copyright: Leo Shatz; Text: Karen Masters

Explanation: It’s always nice to get a new view of an old friend. This stunning Hubble Space Telescope image of nearby spiral galaxy M66 is just that. A spiral galaxy with a small central bar, M66 is a member of the Leo Galaxy Triplet, a group of three galaxies about 30 million light years from us. The Leo Triplet is a popular target for relatively small telescopes, in part because M66 and its galactic companions M65 and NGC 3628 all appear separated by about the angular width of a full moon. The featured image of M66 was taken by Hubble to help investigate the connection between star formation and molecular gas clouds. Clearly visible are bright blue stars, pink ionized hydrogen clouds -- sprinkled all along the outer spiral arms, and dark dust lanes in which more star formation could be hiding.

I desperately need book recommendations after spending 71 hours of my life listening to the wolf hall trilogy. Nothing has been as good ever since and I’m mildly concerned nothing will. Pls help

god welcome to my life this past summer, I’m just reading tome after tome, chasing that high. you’re lucky though, because she also wrote my favorite book, a place of greater safety, about the french revolution. if you want the beauty and nuanced humanity of the wolf hall trilogy, but about 10000% messier people in their twenties, it’s the book for you.

I think Taylor will sweep because they’ve snubbed her last two albums and if they do it again I think she’ll stop performing for them/caring about them and they want the publicity and views she brings in

Ooh this is interesting especially considering The Weeknd says he is never submitting again and Ariana and Lady Gaga are not even showing up this year. The Grammy's desperately want to stay relevant as they become messier each year. And honestly I dont know if rep was a snubbed if it only got a 71 on metacritic and Lover was nominated for pop categories but there was just a lot of good pop last year.

Trophées de la LNH 2021: Nos prédictions

Réjouissez-vous, chers partisans, la saison de hockey est enfin commencée! Et quoi de mieux que de pouvoir regarder du hockey tous les soirs sans se sentir coupable de ne rien faire à cause du couvre-feu? Même si la Ligue nationale vient de débuter sa saison, nous avons décidé de vous offrir nos prédictions sur les différents trophées dans la LNH, afin de voir, à la fin de la campagne, si nous avions raison ou si nous nous sommes royalement trompés. Voici donc les prédictions en question :

 KING CLANCY : Matt Dumba, Défenseur, Wild du Minnesota

 Trophée très difficile à prédire, n’étant pas en lien avec les statistiques des joueurs, le King Clancy est un trophée remis au joueur qui a démontré du leadership autant sur la glace qu’à l’extérieur, tout en contribuant à sa communauté. En 2020, le récipiendaire de ce trophée fut Matt Dumba, pour son implication dans la cause sociale contre la brutalité policière envers les Noirs aux États-Unis, et il est difficile de croire que le trophée ne lui sera pas remis pour une deuxième saison. En effet, Dumba est cofondateur de la Hockey Diversity Alliance, qui se veut promotrice de la diversité dans la Ligue nationale, et il a été le visage de la lutte aux inégalités sociales dans la LNH, avec ses discours au centre de la glace avant les matchs de séries dans la bulle, entre autres. Nous croyons que Matt Dumba recevra ce trophée pour une deuxième saison consécutive, car la lutte aux injustices envers les Noirs est loin d’être terminée et Dumba pourra utiliser la tribune que lui donne la LNH pour discuter encore plus de ces injustices durant la saison 2021.

 BILL MASTERTON : Oskar Lindblom, Attaquant, Flyers de Philadelphie

 Autre trophée ne concernant pas une donnée statistique, le Bill Masterton est donné au joueur qui démontre une persévérance et une dédication au sport qu’est le hockey. En 2020, le récipiendaire fut Bobby Ryan, ayant accepté d’intégrer le programme d’assistance de la LNH pour combattre son alcoolisme. Finaliste au trophée l’an passé, Oskar Lindblom se verra assurément recevoir ce trophée s’il joue toute la saison 2021. En effet, il avait manqué toute la saison 2020, dû au sarcome d’Ewing, qui est une forme de cancer des os, mais avait pu revenir au jeu à temps pour la première ronde des séries des Flyers, dans la bulle de Toronto. Maintenant complètement rétabli de ce cancer, Lindblom pourra avoir un impact majeur avec une équipe comme les Flyers, qui aspire aux grands honneurs, et se verra, selon nous, remporter le trophée Bill Masterton.

 WILLIE O’REE : À déterminer

 Trophée donné à des individus qui ont eu un impact positif dans leur communauté par le hockey, il est impossible de se positionner sur qui sera le récipiendaire de ce trophée, car il est choisi par un comité distinct de la Ligue Nationale et ne concerne pas des joueurs de la LNH. Nous préférons donc nous abstenir de nommer un gagnant pour cet honneur.

 JACK ADAMS : John Cooper, Lightning de Tampa Bay

 Trophée accordé au meilleur entraîneur de la Ligue nationale, il avait été donné à Bruce Cassidy, des Bruins, car son équipe avait gagné le trophée des présidents, avec une fiche de 44 victoires, 14 défaites et 12 défaites en prolongation. Par contre, nous croyons que cette année, il sera accordé à John Cooper, car, en plus d’avoir gagné la Coupe avec le Lightning en 2020, nous croyons que le Lightning finira avec la meilleure fiche de la ligue, grâce, entre autres, au retour de Steven Stamkos dans l’alignement. Au niveau des finalistes, nous prédisons Jared Bednar, de l’Avalanche, et Alain Vigneault, des Flyers.

  FRANK J. SELKE : Aleksander Barkov, Attaquant, Panthers de la Floride

 Trophée accordé au meilleur attaquant défensif de la LNH, il avait été donné à Sean Couturier l’an passé, en raison de sa capacité à gagner des mises en jeu en zone défensive et à limiter les chances de marquer dans sa zone. Par contre, Sean Couturier est, en ce moment, blessé pour un mois et demi, donc nous croyons que cette blessure va diminuer la probabilité qu’il soit voté pour le trophée Selke. C’est donc pourquoi nous donnons le Selke à Aleksander Barkov, qui est, depuis 2013, un des meilleurs attaquants défensifs de la ligue, mais qui n’a jamais gagné le trophée Selke. Âgé de 25 ans, il débute l’apogée de sa carrière et devrait être capable de montrer qu’il est le meilleur attaquant défensif de la LNH cette année. Au niveau des finalistes, nous avons Ryan O’Reilly, des Blues, et Patrice Bergeron, des Bruins, deux habitués de ce trophée.

 LADY BING : Auston Matthews, Attaquant, Maple Leafs de Toronto

 Trophée remis au meilleur joueur qui combine une capacité à bien jouer tout en restant gentleman, c’est-à-dire en ne prenant pas trop de pénalités pour son équipe, il avait été donné à Nathan Mackinnon l’an passé, car il avait terminé avec 93 points et seulement 12 minutes de pénalité. Par contre, Matthews était parmi les finalistes et avait pris seulement 8 minutes de pénalité, et c’est pourquoi nous croyons que s’il est capable d’élever son jeu d’un cran et d’amasser entre 85 et 90 points tout en gardant le même nombre de minutes de pénalités, le trophée Lady Bing sera donné au numéro 34 des Maple Leafs. Au niveau des finalistes, nous prédisons Nathan Mackinnon, de l’Avalanche, qui est toujours dans la course à ce trophée, et Aleksander Barkov, des Panthers, un autre régulier du Lady Bing.

 JIM GREGORY : Marc Bergevin, Canadiens de Montréal

 Trophée remis au meilleur directeur général de la LNH, il avait été remis à Lou Lamoriello, des Islanders, en 2020, en raison de son excellent travail à entourer sa vedette Mathew Barzal, en allant chercher des joueurs comme Semyon Varlamov, Derick Brassard et Jean-Gabriel Pageau, travail qui avait amené les Islanders à la finale de la conférence de l’Est. Cette année, nous croyons que notre DG chéri pourrait très bien gagner ce trophée si les Canadiens font les séries et se rendent minimalement en deuxième ronde. En effet, les acquisitions de Jake Allen, Joel Edmunson, Josh Anderson, Tyler Toffoli et Corey Perry, ainsi que l’arrivée d’Alexander Romanov, vont amener le Canadien à être beaucoup plus compétitif dans la division Nord, et ceci pourrait donc assurer le trophée Jim Gregory à Bergevin. Au niveau des finalistes, nous avons Brad Treliving, des Flames, qui a aussi fait plusieurs acquisitions pour rendre Calgary plus compétitif, et Joe Sakic, qui a réussi plusieurs vols, dont l’acquisition de Devon Toews pour des pinottes.

 MARK MESSIER : Gabriel Landeskog, Avalanche du Colorado

 Trophée remis au joueur qui démontre de bonnes qualités pour son équipe et à l’extérieur de la glace, c’est monsieur Mark Messier qui choisit le joueur qui recevra cette reconnaissance, et c’est souvent des capitaines qui finissent par la recevoir. En 2020, Mark Giordano, des Flames, a reçu le trophée, grâce à son leadership en tant que capitaine des Flames et son travail charitable, lui qui a fondé des organismes de charité, comme Team Giordano, qui promeut l’activité physique et le travail académique chez les jeunes. Cette année, nous croyons que le trophée ira à Gabe Landeskog, car, tout en étant le capitaine d’une équipe qui se rendra assurément loin en séries, il est impliqué dans plusieurs organisations, comme Friends, qui aide à lutter contre l’intimidation dans les écoles, et a fait beaucoup de dons pour contrer la COVID-19 dans l’état du Colorado.

 CALDER : Kirill Kaprizov, Attaquant, Wild du Minnesota

 Trophée remis à la recrue de l’année dans la LNH, Cale Makar en avait été le récipiendaire en 2020, dû à sa récolte de 50 points en 57 matchs en tant que défenseur, ce qui est absolument phénoménal. Cette année, nous le donnons à Kirill Kaprizov, qui en est à sa première saison dans la LNH, après avoir dominé la Ligue continentale de Russie, considérée deuxième meilleure ligue au monde. De plus, à 23 ans, il est un peu plus vieux que les autres recrues de la LNH, et il a donc un peu plus d’expérience, et il jouera sur le premier trio du Wild dès le début de la saison, tous des facteurs qui peuvent l’aider à remporter le Calder. Au niveau des finalistes, nous avons Igor Shesterkin, des Rangers, et Tim Stützle, des Sénateurs.

 HART : Nathan MacKinnon, Attaquant, Avalanche du Colorado

 Probablement le trophée le plus prestigieux après la Coupe Stanley, il est remis au joueur le plus important à son équipe et a été donné à Leon Draisaitl en 2020, dû à une récolte de 110 points en 71 matchs chez les Oilers. Par contre, nous croyons que Nathan MacKinnon a toutes les chances de le gagner cette année, lui qui était finaliste l’an passé. Étant le visage d’une équipe comme l’Avalanche, qui aspire aux grands honneurs, il arrive à son apogée, à 25 ans, et devrait donc connaître, en théorie, une des meilleures saisons de sa carrière déjà exceptionnelle. De plus, si son équipe termine haut dans le classement, cela pourrait grandement jouer en sa faveur pour gagner ce trophée. Au niveau des finalistes, nous avons Connor McDavid, des Oilers, et Artemi Panarin, des Rangers.

 NORRIS : Quinn Hughes, Défenseur, Canucks de Vancouver

 La décision de choisir Quinn Hughes pour le trophée du meilleur défenseur de la LNH est très impressionnante, nous en sommes conscients, mais elle n’est pas illogique. En effet, Quinn Hughes a terminé la saison dernière avec 53 points en 68 matchs, tout en étant le visage de la défense des Canucks, équipe qui s’est rendue en deuxième ronde dans la bulle, et le quart-arrière de leur supériorité numérique, tandis que le gagnant de l’an passé, Roman Josi, a terminé la saison avec 65 points en 69 matchs dans une équipe des Prédateurs qui a eu de la difficulté tout l’année. De plus, Quinn Hughes va continuer d’évoluer en tant que joueur et pourrait connaître une saison offensive mémorable, lui qui a déjà 3 points et 2 matchs joués dans la saison 2021. Au niveau des finalistes, nous avons Cale Makar, de l’Avalanche, et Victor Hedman, du Lightning.

 TED LINDSAY : Connor McDavid, Attaquant, Oilers d’Edmonton

 Trophée remis au joueur le plus important à son équipe selon le reste de la LNH, il avait aussi été gagné par Leon Draisaitl l’an passé, dû à sa saison de 110 points en 71 matchs. Par contre, nous croyons que les joueurs diront cette année que Connor McDavid est le joueur le plus important à son équipe, simplement car il est impossible à défendre pour les défenseurs adverses, dû à sa vitesse incroyable, vitesse qui lui permet d’amasser beaucoup de points. Donc, nous croyons que les joueurs pensent que McDavid est plus important à son équipe que MacKinnon, par exemple, car il est un cauchemar pour les défensives adverses. Au niveau des finalistes, nous avons Nathan MacKinnon, de l’Avalanche, et Artemi Panarin, des Rangers.

 VÉZINA : Andrei Vasilevskiy, Gardien, Lightning de Tampa Bay

 Trophée le plus prestigieux pour les gardiens, il a été remis, en 2020, à Connor Hellebuyck, qui a su garder un pourcentage d’efficacité de 0,922 et une moyenne de buts alloués de 2,57. Par contre, même s’il sera encore dans les finalistes, nous ne croyons pas que Hellebuyck gagnera ce trophée pour une deuxième année de suite, car nous ne voyons pas les Jets en séries, dû à une division Nord très compétitive. À la place de gagnant du trophée, nous voyons Andrei Vasilevskiy, qui est un habitué de ce trophée et qui, dû au fait qu’il joue dans une division Centrale assez faible, ne sera pas menacé par les attaques adverses, ce qui lui permettra de garder des bonnes statistiques. Au niveau des finalistes, nous avons Connor Hellebuyck, des Jets, et Carey Price, du Canadien, autres habitués de ce trophée.

  BONUS : Voici, selon nous, l’équipe de recrues de 2021 :

 Gardien : Igor Shesterkin, Rangers de New York

 Défenseur 1: Alexander Romanov, Canadiens de Montréal

 Défenseur 2 : Ty Smith, Devils du New Jersey

 Attaquant 1: Kirill Kaprizov, Wild du Minnesota

 Attaquant 2 : Tim Stueztle, Sénateurs d’Ottawa

 Attaquant 3 : Alexis Lafrenière, Rangers de New York

[overplannedbutunnamednpc]

for ask meme mtuesday, all for ecstasy and who ever else may be interesting (i am looking for pirate-spiration for No Particular Reason): 18 (do means justify ends), 35 (most prized possession and i am excluding the sexy gun from this), 67 (meanest thing they've ever said), 71 (describe their bedroom but do it as the captain's quarters bc :3)

18. Does your character believe the ends justify the means? No matter who they have to step on to reach their goals? ecstasy says: yes! I am Thinkaing about that little drabble of ecstasy on the ship as the abeast closes in. she’s very pragmatic, morals or not, and sometimes you have to do shitty and fucked up things for the greater good or the good of yourself and/or select others. it’s great if there’s other options! but sometimes, well, you have to crack eggs to make an omelette. that said, I think she does have a point where she’d at least hesitate to do something fucked up, especially now that she’s grown Morals in exchange for Pussy. I think she would have always hesitated giving up any of her crew or harming her parents. I think now she’d hesitate giving up the motherfuckers, and one motherfucker in particular. but I genuinely don’t think ecstasy would like. sacrifice herself for anything. not someone else, not the greater good. she’s just not That good, you know?

35. Speaking of items, what is their most prized possession? If they have one that is. when not considering her gun.............. hm. i’m assuming you’re excluding BOTH sexy guns because she has two actually. but barring those: she has a collection of shitty touristy tschotskes from new places she visits on the ship. I think if she really had to choose, she’d want to keep her first one, from when she wasn’t doing much more than ropework and deck swabbing and she wanted to see the whole entire world. she loves the stupid thing more than she’ll admit to.

67. What was the most acidic remark your character’s ever given to someone? And their reaction? ecstasy’s a bitch so this one is harder than glade. I think she’s said plenty of mean things, of course! but I’ll only consider bad things she said and later like. maybe-regretted. and like.... idk exactly what it might’ve been? ecstasy isn’t really a creature of regret but I am imagining like. something happened to raini, scaring the Shit out of ecstasy, and revivify wasn’t an option so they had to go for a rez ritual, and ecstasy was shaken up and bitchy and raini was bitchy right back because she’s raini and she has a -4 to everything and feels like shit, and ecstasy said something she regretted Immensely about like. I think it was an implication that basically if raini was gonna continue being stupid and dying or whatever, then ecstasy wouldn’t care the next time she did, and certainly wouldn’t go out of her way to be there like she did this time. and I think like. probably raini got mad about being called stupid but I also imagine hearing “next time I’m not going to be there if you die because you’re a bitch” maybe Hurt some. @bekahdoesnerdshit feel free to give Thots on this one.

71. How is your character’s bedroom? Is it small, big, colourful, simple, messy, organised, filled with their things, shared…? ecstasy has a fairly messy space that only got messier when she started sharing it with raini. she just has a large collection and a small cabin, and she lives On the ship so she doesn’t really have space for other stuff. she has the following: a bed (feat. a mattress and sheets and pillows nice enough to impress A Certain Wizard), a footlocker (mostly full of tight pants, billowy low cut shirts, a thigh holster or two, and nice underwear), her hot sexy very sensual and sexual and hot pirate coat hanging from a bedpost, a desk chair (sometimes feat. a hastily discarded but loathe to be left on the floor set of dove gray robes inset with tiny embroidered magical runes), a desk (usually stacked with some measure of the following: shipping manifests, forgery kit(s), tinkering kit(s), drying licenses of sale, a couple of bullet casings stacked three to four high, scrap metal, a letter or two, a magnifying glass, the magical equivalent of a hot plate and crucible, etc.), a box under the desk of scrap metal and a small box of gunpowder, a bedside table with a few books and baubles stacked on it, and a vanity (which has had most of its mirror covered by just. Assorted Stuff.)
