Eddie running low on money before Christmas so he decides to advertise that he’s doing portraits for pay. Karen Wheeler commissions him to draw Holly (she knows he’s a good kid, Nancy and Mike have known him for a while and he’s always got impeccable manners when he’s over. She heard him say something about his uncle teaching him that ‘munsons have manners dammit eddie’) and Eddie accepts because hey, money! And it’s an easy gig. Well, he thinks it is until his brain won’t focus so when he delivers the drawing he’s nervous so he gives it to Holly and books it.

Karen gets home and Holly is running up to her, waving a piece of paper in her mom’s face

‘Mom!! Look what Eddie did!!!’

So Karen takes it to have a look and it’s certainly Holly alright. It’s Holly with wings and pure black eyes, riding a three headed dog over…is that hawkins highschool on fire?

Karen doesn’t have a chance to say anything before Holly grabs it back

‘Don’t I look so COOL?!!? This is the best present EVER!!!’

Karen can’t take the drawing away from her, don’t get her wrong. She tried. Holly screamed for half an hour solid until she got ‘the monstrosity’ (as Karen calls it back.) Needless to say Ted was never told about the drawing. Or any of the drawings after that because Holly demanded one every year after that. Eddie might have a new favourite Wheeler

Headcanon that all the aliens in Star Trek have mating cycles. Vulcans have one of the harshest where if the male does not successfully mate, he will almost certainly die, but they range from severe to mild. A few nearly die, some are severely ill, and most just suffer for a few days. It usually doesn't affect their ability to enjoy themselves outside of the cycle, it merely exists as a time of greater fertility and of securing mates, permanent or temporary as the case may be.

But not humans.

No, we don't have a mating cycle. We're the only sentient humanoid without one and we confused the shit out of everybody else because we don't have a time of madness? We don't long for a mate at a biologically appointed time? It just happens... randomly??

boy how do you reblog such great things

been cultivating my dash for years. i also found most of them in my drafts

Welp, guess what obnoxious know-it-all biologist just got their decision to keep their wisdom teeth fucking vindicated?

Fuck my life, it's meeeeeeeeeee!

As I fucking predicted, 6mo is an utterly unreasonable amount of time to delay a filling/crown on a fractured fucking tooth. A huge chunk of the side of my molar came off on a goddamn donut, so now I'm probably going to have to have the tooth pulled! (I'm pretty certain I swallowed the piece too - fuck me.)

I'm planning to insist on a referral to an oral surgeon who can perform autotransplants because I have the fucking teeth for it. They're sitting there, dormant, in my damn jaw.

I mean that's why they're there (though in a time before surgeons or orthodontics they'd kind of just shove everything over) but it doesn't feel great to actually have to use the backup I insisted on having.

At least I can lord the fact that I'm right over people.

28/50 days of productivity

My chemistry teacher wasn’t here again today, so I had the whole morning off and had double maths in the afternoon. In my frees I did the chemistry class work and did this biology sketch for some revision, I also did some periodicity exam questions.

Tasks achieved:

Revision on the brain

Homework due for tomorrow

AS maths paper

Started AS chemistry past paper

Started periodicity exam questions

🎧 Ignorance - Paramore

QOTD - favourite way to de-stress

i am also gonna go ahead and say that this is the literal moira/dorchadas song, and i want to be very specific about the fact that it's THIS specific version of the song, bc it's got the haunting choral action, it's a little more ominous, it's just the right vibe in EVERY WAY! but also: this would be the part that's like. it's so uncertain as to which threat it's being directed from. but it's also a song that indicates an uncontrollable greed and thirst and hunger for MORE, and like. i will say that it's not from moira. moira WANTS to be this unstoppable force that can't stop consuming, but in the end, this is a far more deadly and dark force than even she can consider.

I find it absurd that my professors don't know about crash course. I just assumed every educator knew about them because of how popular they are, but I guess that's not the case.

Today on Oxford life: set up my electrophoresis. Left the lab. Ran back to college gym. Did a 2K test. Ran back to lab. Got electrophoresis results.

[lokismusings]

I did a thing. But please, if anyone has another idea for a fic where Malcolm finds out about the alien life form earlier in the episode, go ahead and write it!! I want all the fics of this because it’s under appreciated. Also, I’m excited to delve into the scientific and health-related process of this fic because the fetus being attached to Trip’s pericardium?! That could be so dangerous! I wish the episode would have focused on that, too, but I get that they were going for a more humorous approach.

chose my classes for next year and. jesus christ the college/uni/workplace stuff is still so confusing
