wow cute rabbit hole

So no scientist disputes that the moon is hollow.

This will cause cognitive dissonance, because it's one of those facts not taught in schools because standardized test writers weren't aware. But check wikipedia if you're curious, I've posted that link many times and won't bore my followers with it yet again. Just google the apollo 12 seismic survey and read closely. People aren't aware of this because it's hidden behind other text - scary....

No scientist would dispute that there is too much momentum in the earth-moon system than can be accounted for even by the Theia hypothesis, and it's not even close.

In my circles, we know there is more than a "man" in the moon, there are cities of ETs in the moon. That's why just about every apollo mission reported seeing UFOs, because it's a legit base for ETs. Look in your mind and you will see them. They will be able to possibly look back at you seeing them if you do this so tread cautiously and only take fleeting glimpses. There's a famous psychic who made contact with them and realized they're somewhat hostile to us, or at least to us becoming more psychically active.

Google Ingo Swann's story about psychic entities within the moon if you care to learn more there, but Mr. Swann isn't the only psychic reporting these experiences.

"What is your take on President Carter crying when briefed on aliens?"

Was he losing it over stories like this?

why does the moon have way too much radiation than can be explained by interstellar rays?

ultimately this is the most difficult piece of the puzzle to manage until you hear the full theory

The hypothesis holds that the moon is actually a radiation shield for an armada of alien motherships, that the moon was piloted through interstellar space long ago, potentially over a billion years, this journey left it with elevated levels of radioactivity due to the interstellar travel, as well as significant scarring on the leading side of the moon, which now faces earth. However those traveling inside the moon would not have experienced that, and would have likely had a comfortable ride. This theory allows for an origin story to the gods that may have appeared to those who wrote ancient "holy" texts. It's plausible that these civs within the moon are genetically engineering life on earth to match their wishes, and not all their wishes are exaclty the same, which is a theme we see repeated in many ancient religious texts.

It's possible that a number of alien species live within the moon / on the far side, they don't all get along, and that's why we don't all get along on earth either; we are perhaps avatars playing out the larger struggle of the heavens; and me I'm perhaps that religious reformer connecting these galactically-disparate ideas that actually relate to each ohter.

It's possible that the myriad ET species that came in with the moon are terraforming and genetically engineering life on earth to accelerate its trajectory toward their goals and ideals, which may overlap in areas, and in other areas, may compete. Obviously there's a government for these ETs somewhere...food for thought, unfinished thoughts clearly

Because i feel like i might be overestimating what the average is, i shall Conduct Research

This isn't about how many languages you speak, but how many youre able to count up to at least 10 in, since basic numbers are some of the first words you learn in a foreign language and sometimes you catch them without having studied the language at all

With M&Ms putting out more ads due to Halloween coming up, I would like to casually make sure everyone is aware...

The Peanut M&M is voiced by the same guy who voices Ford Pines and Cave Johnson.

I'm trying to avoid getting spoiled so I haven't looked up what's happening in the Jp server's main story, but for my own sanity I need to ask; is the story at a point where we know whether Lilia will get better/survive his almost-empty magic reserves..? Was it a true death flag from the start or only a plot device for malleus' overblot....?

not yet! I do think they're going to get back to it eventually, but -- keeping it as low spoilers as possible -- there's been...let's just say a LOT going on in the meantime.

enjoy 7-6!!! :)

The Foxes should go to one of those indoor adult jungle gym situations. The massive ones that span entire floors, that are damn near just giant silly obstacle courses.

I have nothing to add beyond this, just Release Them.

there's something so odd yet fascinating about how fanworks for mxtx's books tend to misinterpret the literal protagonists of her stories more than any other characters

So if I’m speaking Spanish, and I need to say an English word — like a name, brand, website, etc — I say it like a Spanish speaker

However, I hear a lot of speakers drop into a very native English accent in the middle of a sentence to say “el Starbucks” and whatnot (I love hearing it. Just a random completely English-sounding word in a Spanish sentence)

So I’m wondering…

From my personal observations I think native bilinguals do this more, but I’m interested in more data. Feel free to reply or reblog for a more detailed answer!

(EDIT: sorry the poll is so confusing. “YES” means yes, you do the thing I described, changing your accent to a different one in the middle of a sentence)

How far do you think Heimerdinger got before he realized Viktor probably didn't lock up and instead headed to Jayce?

Heimerdinger, walking home, thinking Viktor might be up to something and remembering this was the way Viktor was looking at Jayce during his trial:

He's known Viktor a long time. He knows that's Viktor's "I have an idea" face.

he probably booked it back to the academy lmao

This 4th of July I’m stealing the patriotism euphoria that’s usually associated with assholes idolizing the worst attributes of this country because fuck ‘em I live here too and remembering the things this country actually got Right is an important exercise when trying to rally anyone to want to defend it in November SO putting my money where my mouth is I’ll start easy and say I really like National Parks!! It’s rad how many of them there are and how they’re actual set up to preserve some of the most beautiful wild areas in our country while still letting people visit to enjoy and experience nature!! (Less important but I love how they put national parks on the quarters I think that’s real fun)

Feel free to add on if something speaks to ya!

hey about the vow made to radahn?

i had a moment of red string insanity while, as i have been since the dlc dropped, thinking about the motivations and agency of radahn.

(please tell me i'm not the only one stumbling into this hypothesis)

i've been long pondering about gaius, radahn's older brother figure, being an albinauric, one of the opressed people miquella is trying to save. and how he is stated to be cursed from birth, cursed people being also part of miquella's motivations.

i am in the camp that miquella has good intentions, but desperation has driven him to extreme methods. the "he is controlling everyone, nobody is willing!!" angle doesn't sit right with me. frankly, it makes for a less impactful story. it makes things convoluted, where seeing miquella as someone with limited power and a lot of his moves as scrambling to recover from setbacks makes sense. everything didn't go down as planned, there were things out of his control.

so. radahn. he promised to be miquella's consort, for better or worse. what did miquella vow to him?

i considered it, but wanting gaius to be saved doesn't feel like enough motivation for him. or if it was, would the man who learned gravity magic to keep riding his beloved horse decide to abandon his sworn brother so that he can, what, go hog wild in the shattering war?

but thinking about gaius made me think of albinaurics. lack of feet. being cursed from birth. radahn lacks his feet during the festival. that's not anything, scarlet rot rots away limbs all the time.

but scarlet rot doesn't turn your skin gray and sclera black.

marika's children are prone to being born cursed. cursed to be taken over by entities. losing their minds.

it's hard to find a sensible reason for radahn and malenia to have fought. two possibilities i've seen before are 1) radahn wasn't on board with the plan (likely had broken out of miquella's charms and control) so malenia was sent to bring him back in line 2) for some reason, miquella specifically needed him to die and be resurrected, and all the weird circumstances are somehow part of the same plan and make sense for reasons we just can't know but trust me bro they do.

it's interesting that in the story trailer, in radahn's and malenia's fight, radahn's face is shown only for a split second.

gray skin. black sclera.

was radahn, too, cursed from birth?

was he doomed to be overtaken, to lose himself?

had he lost his mind long before he was afflicted with scarlet rot? had he turned into a scourge, and not much else, before he and malenia fought?

did malenia see herself in him? did she want to give him the death he would have wanted? did she want to help him keep a promise he wouldn't have wanted to break?

did miquella vow to save him, like he did the albinaurics, like he did malenia?

Bathrooms/Restrooms in THH (specifically THH)

The fact that no one ever needed to use the restroom ONCE during the trials is insane when you think about it. Those trials are for several hours, no sitting area, no break, just standing there to figure out who done it. So, the fact that none of these idiots accidently drank too much water at any point before the trial is a damn miracle. Hell, I think these punks weren't drinking as much water as they should honestly!! I bet they're all dehydrated and honestly haven't been taking good care of their bodies. For one, it's a killing game. Lotta stress, lotta murder, prime setting to have physical health to not be the biggest priority aside from ensuring one's heart was still beating. So, at the very least, the bare minimum was at least somewhat met to some extent for the cast. At the same time though, even the bare minimum can have it's holes. Which leads me to this whole ramble to begin with! Moreover, still on topic but a bit different, the more I think about it, I wonder if, after Chapter 1, Makoto would be using the restrooms outside of his dorm. Or, at the very least, for the majority of the killing game. Of course he's still attempting to use the shower's and all in the dorm room (gotta get clean somehow) but also, there IS a bath house that gets opened up. So, the more I think about it, kinda a missed opportunity in a way? Though that might just be me. Though, that restroom, that dorm restroom, that must have haunted his mind at least for a good while anyway! Not that Makoto isn't allowed to concur that. Of course he can! I do think it'd be an interesting angle though of Makoto's mini journey of going from the full on dismay of going back into that restroom to slowly taking it all head on. Who knows. Maybe him taking a shower before he and the rest confront the mastermind has it's own power to it. However, for both of these ideas of mine, I feel the realistic topic of these people in this killing game and their bodily needs isn't really something that's ever really brought up (which makes sense. not like there needed to be a pissing mechanic in the dang murder game). But, damn it! I just like thinking of the logistics of this stuff. At the end of the day, the cast still have those teen mentalities. They're all still people and vulnerable and prone to getting diarrhea like the rest of us! I refuse to believe that all of them were 100% treating their bodies right and eating enough fiber and in the right headspace to even be taking care of themselves right in the first place! Hell! Not all of them can even cook (talking to YOU specifically, Byakuya!!) Whether some were coping by using all their energy to work on finding the mastermind (cough cough Kyoko) or just getting by with the basics or even stress eating to gain some sort of comfort during the grueling times of the killing game, it had to have been effecting them all in some sort of a deeper level. Perhaps more than just a feeling of dread but one of the many side effects of despair.
