Loving reminder from your land history auntie:
North American golf courses have had 50-100 years of arsenic and mercury based fungicide and herbicides applied to their soils.
Do not eat anything that has been grown on a golf course or downstream from a golf course. I know it sounds cool and radical, but you are too valuable to poison yourself with heavy metals.
Protect each other, turn your local golf course into a pollinator garden, not a sex forest or community garden.
#i am over here worrying about all you kiddos#also please dont forage on railway corridors either#love yourselves protect yourselves#lmao at the replies saying 'but why not sex forest anyway'#you do you kids#im personally a no thank you on the lead arsenic mercury sex forest personally#if you havent seen it there's a popular book about making golf course a sex forest#that isn't a random pull

I love the idea of Ratchet being captured while badly injured. It wasn't necessarily on purpose-- he knows the Cons would love to take him prisoner in order to utilize his medical skills, he was just in the wrong place at the wrong time. Once they realized he was a medic they pulled him from the rubble and got him on a slab pretty quickly all things considered. The trouble is there's a reason the Cons value medical expertise-- he's bleeding out, they don't have enough supplies, and at this rate Ratchet knows he's gonna die. So with whatever strength he can muster he gets the attention of one of the grunts working on him.
Ratchet: H... hey... I need you... to pass on a message...
Con 1: To who, your Prime? Not gonna happen.
Con 2: Yeah we don't really do the 'any last words' thing.
Ratchet: No... *wheeze* to Deadlock.
Con 1 & 2: *go still*
Ratchet: Tell 'im... I'll... be waiting... for him...
Con 2: Wait a klik...
Con 1: ... You don't think--?
Con 2: -- Frag! Oh frag!! His vitals!!! Dealock is gonna kill us!!
Con 1: Scrap! Get Soundwave on the line, have him patch to the DJD!
Con 2: He's not gonna make it! I don't want them to know my face!
Con 1: It. won't. matter. If we wait, it'll look worse!
Con 2: Oh Primus, I hope they don't pick up...
Con 1: Just go!!!
Ratchet: ... I'm waitin' to... kick his aft... *passes out*
#ratchlock#cue Ratchet miraculously pulling through#mainly cuz the djd pulled rank and got ratchet transported to better care#which was only allowed because megs couldn't really afford to have deadlock lose his marbles and kill everybody right after a battle#deadlock isn't there when he wakes up. he's still a bit of a coward in that regard.#he also wanted to first focus on getting ratchet better before like... bombarding them both with feels#tarn is delighted to finally have a face and name to go with deadlock's medic obsession-- it's a weakness easily exploited#Megs is annoyed af. of COURSE your precious assumed-to-be-dead-or-never-real-to-begin-with medic HAD to be Prime's lapdog and CMO.#couldn't have been some random hick from Nyon noooo it had to be literally the most important medic this side of the galaxy.#now Megs has multiple issues to deal with. for one-- Optimus and the Bots obviously wants Ratchet back.#almost desperately so. which could be an excellent bargaining chip in a prisoner exchange or even a general hostage demand situation#HOWEVER Deadlock and the djd appear to want to keep the bugger... and there will likely be consequences if they cannot.#*sigh* maybe megs will be lucky and Ratchet will conveniently escape on his own.#but then again-- Ratchet is clearly LINGERING instead of making escape attempts??? does he have a death wish???? megs is TIRED

my ALNST oc/sona, solei!! they know both too much and too little at the same time.
is your senior year at highschool getting too boring? fear not! a game of whodunnit is now underway!
ok but seriously, they were really fun to make! my idea for them is pretty unpolished (fuck it we ball) but hey we're all here for fun so what's the harm in it
#alnst#alien stage#alien stage oc#alnst oc#alien stage sona#alnst sona#random notes!#i know the signature looks kind of unnecessarily complicated but listen#according to the shit i pulled out of my ass the humans in alien society are more dextrous and quick moving#because of their conditioning (absolute bullshit)#solei has a simplified signature too if thats any better#plip pointed out that the girls ids start with 2 and the boys with 1#solei is...... dont even worry about it!!!#the eyebags are due to lack of sleep and bouts of paranoia#but they try their hardest to not be seen as weird#and they like being around friends and talking about shared interests#also solei isn't talented at singing. at all#like. okay at best#alnst oc: solei

I've been keeping an eye on the news every single day since the martial law declaration happened. I even had it on earlier while I was drawing and here's something I JUST LEARNED as breaking news:
Apparently, the "president" seriously attempted to take over Seoul, the capital, using the military if martial law had been enacted. He had all the plans prepared in advance. I have no words. This man really tried to become a dictator in the 21st century, in South Korea of all places—a country where democracy has firmly been established for decades. This is insane. I wish I could describe things better in words. If martial law hadn’t been voted down the way it was, countless civilians could have been killed...
And his party tried to defend him by saying he "was lonely and needed a friend to talk to"? They’re out of their minds.
I’m speechless. If things had turned out differently, I might not have been able to sit here and type all this. I can't believe it. He really could have destroyed this country.
#random blabbering#this is like... one of the worst presidents we ever had and we had so many evil ones so this says A LOT#he REALLY went and tried to pull this off??? in 2024???? what world does he even live in???#how can he say;; he's against north korea when HE'S tried to do the same thing????#it's crazy everyone. I'm so glad it's failing/failed!!#this guy!!!! needs to be jailed!!!! he STILL ISN'T YET!!!! I NEED TO SEE HIM CONFINED!!

one of the fundamental issues i see with post-resurrection barry allen is that both writers and fans need to elevate him to a more “powerful” position than wally to prove he’s better or equal to his flash. but like. that's not how barry functions as a character. barry is a creative problem solver who doesn't need speed because he uses his powers as a secondary tool in preference to his mind. meanwhile, wally is far more intuitive and his powers work as an extension of his own consciousness so he'll resort to speed first and a viable plan of action second. to remove this characteristic from barry and make him so reliant on speed inadvertantly proves that he can't stand on his own BECAUSE of this constant comparison. tldr; barry shouldn't be the fastest most specialist speedster to ever have been created because he has his own strengths apart from speed mcgee wally and so engages with the audience differently to begin with.
#see all the silver age flash issues where barry pulls random shit out of a hat and wins the fight by vibrating his molecules or whatever#whereas in the issue where wally isn't fast enough to save the helicopter he has to be reminded about other methods he can use#so like there is no point to hype barry's speed b/c 1) why should his audience care when he appeals more towards detective / cop type beats#and 2) he isn't ever going to be as fast as wally in popular consciousness b/c wally fans never stfu about it#anyway this is my thesis statement as to why barry is slower than wally lmao i have a bias so what#overall the need to justify barry's return is so lame like ofc he was better off dead but u brought him back so do smth cool w/ him now? sm#barry allen#wally west#.mine

If I had a nickel for every time a trailer for the FNaF movie(s) released, and there happened to be some random, unimportant guy briefly shown in one, and a handful of people looked at that guy and went: "hENRY!!! :0"
I would have two nickels, of course.
#Not a quote#First Hank(?) from the first movie who went to the place to mess with it...#And now Random Guy 2 who gets pulled through a door by Toy Chica#He was in Jurassic Park or something#Hank was never Henry Emily and this dude isn't going to be either#Why do people keep guessing that#Hello guys who are Only in The Movie To Show What The Animatronics Can Do#Goodbye guys who are Only in The Movie To Show What The Animatronics Can Do#FNaF#Spring's Chatter

Ultra cursed: twins Audric and twins Elias in the same universe.
Wait wait wait Do you mean twins as in two sets of Audric and two sets of Elias or Audric and Elias as twins? I don't know if you've ever read The Violinist of Hameln, but I'm picturing a situation ala Hamel and Sizer as babies with Pandora

But, you know, luckily for Lyra and Audun, these two would actually not be airborn at any time. (... Hopefully?) The other scenario though... see, two Audrics would balance two Eliases (Eliasi? Is the plural of Elias Eli?) out. The true curse would be "One Audric, Two Eli"
#solivaga#soli asks#I say 'idk if you've ever read voh' like the fandom isn't ten people and a spool of thread#there was a brief moment where audric and elias were considered for twins but the older brother dynamic worked better#ofc this is a for-fun-silly-ask so I shouldn't bring random factoids into it lol#Can guarantee that panel of Sizer pulling Pandora's hair out has happened though#smol elias just going to town on Mom or dad's hair. want those feathers

I grouse, but it's probably for my personal best that AEW doesn't come to the PNW more than twice a year actually.
#I've already been to the two ppvs in the last six months on this side of the Rockies#I've got double or nothing next month and I'll pull the trigger on y'all in if I get that promotion#and uhhh BD's last dynamite across the state the random collision at the convention i was fortuitously already going to?!#now two collisions here in wa and a dynamite in June#and the summer blockbuster in Portland four hour dynamite & collision the week before that#i joked to my friend what if i just followed aew on tour up the coast but uhhhh#and that isn't counting merch money or tickets for my local Indy this is an expensive hobby thank fuck i didn't fall for WWE#3x the cost 50x the merch#monty rambles

thinkign about recovery centers i luv Youuuu recovery centers
#my random rc headcanon of the evening is that all-encompassing automatic recovery centers are no longer manufactured because theyre Suck#like they're annoying to configure. do it wrong and you'll either have an rc that doesn't work or an rc that works TOO well#and it just starts pulling dead objects from who knows what part of the world and then it's like. Hey that guy isn't supposed to be here#so they fell out of favor and manual recovery centers (where you have to put their name in) became Wayyyy more popular#which is why we haven't seen an all-encompassing automatic rc since flower destroyed it in bfdi 25#brifdi#thanks for reading! I Have More.#For Another Time Perhaps.

It's funny because the rook was the first bird that I submitted and the only one that got in. After the submissions were closed, I realized that I had totally forgotten about the oilbird, so I was really hoping someone else had submitted it. Now I'm glad that I didn't do it, but the rook is going against the oilbird! I don't know how to feel about this, but it seems like a funny coincidence
Ahh that is a fun coincidence!
I almost didn't include Oilbird since it's been in a few polls, but it seems to have lost most of those from the start, which feels unfair seeing as it is such a unique bird! I'm hoping it gets another chance here, but corvids always poll well on tumblr.
#not polls#asks#I'm glad I randomized the polls because that did some heavy lifting for me#I would never have known how to pair corvids to which birds they'd murder otherwise#(hopefully oilbird pulls through tho! not that rook isn't cool- just gunning for a weirdie myself lol)

the more i'm reading and focusing specifically on matthew, the more i'm starting to appreciate just how embarrassing this man is.
for example, diana asked him to take a sip of wine and tell her what he tastes. AND THIS IS HIS GODDAMN REPLY
“Violets—I agree with you there. Those purple violets covered with sugar. Elizabeth Tudor loved candied violets, and they ruined her teeth.” He sipped again. “Cigar smoke from good cigars, like they used to have at the Marlborough Club when the Prince of Wales stopped in...”
wow. so smooth, matthew. name-dropping in front of a historian..... so smooth.
#OOC.#matthew vc: hmm yes yes violets! oh did you know i actually knew the queen of england too hmmm.. yes that's just a casual fact about me....#not to mention how the fun fact about elizabeth isn't even that personal. everyone knows that at this point. just makes it seem like#he's pulling random facts from history books to impress diana and while yeah yeah he did work for the queen and knew her#i just find this version much much more entertaining

controversial take for the morning: just because something is normal in your culture... doesn't necessarily make it good.
doesn't mean it's automatically bad either, just... you can't dismiss a conversation on the grounds of "well it's common where i'm from" cuz oh boy, could i give you horrific examples of "normal" from around the world
#decided to post this here too#yes this is about the earring thing#bc a lot of cultures do things to babis that they can't consent to#doesn't mean it's okay though#and it's not insensitive to think that it isn't#have a conversation instead of pulling out the baseless name calling#and maybe grow up on the way there ugh#babies*#random

Sigh... Anti intellectualism on Tumblr again

Or a poet.
#like yeah you can bang out a shit story where you describe the curtains as blue purely aesthetically and literally#but that's not the kind of literature that ends up getting analyzed in English class#i promise promise promise your 10th grade English teacher isn't pulling random books off the shelf and reading into shit that isn't there#and even if the author truly only mentioned the curtains were blue to set the scene we can still read into that#if you can build a coherent and cohesive reading and interpretation it doesn't matter what the author intended#i can read the yellow wallpaper as being queer if i wanted to
