#underground homes

[hometoursandotherstuff]

Look at this. The front of this house is exposed and the rest is buried. It even has a Belvidere sticking out of the earth. Built in 2013 in Sheridan, MT, it has 3bds, 3ba, 3,000 sq ft, $1.35m.

Even underground homes have open concept main living areas.

Look at the ceiling, it has angled walls on the lofted area.

Looking down from the loft.

The stairs are pretty steep. Well, at least they're lit.

The primary bedroom has a covered terrace with a lovely view.

Nice roomy stone ensuite.

That must be a gun safe in this bedroom.

Wide hall leads to the 2 other bedrooms and a bath.

They share this shower room.

Spiral stairs going up to the Belvidere.

Cute up here.

Back on the main floor, there's a laundry room.

I guess this is the equivalent of a basement.

The patio out in front of the house.

Here's a hot tub that is heated by wood.

A shed and a greenhouse.

Plus a large garage.

Look at the serious snow vehicle.

A vehicle like that would probably come in handy up here.

Looks like it's off-grid.

The property is 40 acres and there are no restrictions so the new owners can build cabins, or whatever they like.

‘We’re in a good place’ – Daniel optimistic after first Grand Prix Q3 appearance of the year

[cosmicourple]

Ithaca is a cursed island,,,

Filled to the brim with Rot and decay, echos of a world no longer there, unforgiving to exist in,

Plant Life is dark and beautiful, thick ‘wood’ of dark forests gnarled and scarred with many Spats for Țerritory, howling gleefully through The Nights of Forever.

What is Society Anymore ??? What is Warmth or Shelter Anymore ???

why would she not listen to us why would she turn away from us.

Up on the surface, the Palace remains still, forever shining with rust and silver Moonlight, choking within its own aching stone skin.

While below,,,

The Halls groan with seemingly endless emptiness, pitch black to A Mortal’s eye But to ŤħœŘ unďŸıñğ ĞÄżœê—-

Somewhere Unknown, a mourning choir of Voices sing of the Land that’s Deities have turned them away, chanting together in rare shaken Unity ,,,while The Queen watches, humming along, a sound like velvet, pondering on what to do of Ț(ę Ťrä8þǒř,ß once She ŠÊŒŞ them Æġåñ,,,,,,,,,

(Deep deep down below, a Young One sings to a navy cloak, waiting, waiting, patient, patient, for they promised they would be back soon, waiting, waiting, waiting for them to come back, şħäðøŵș þřãłǐňġ bęhĩņď a Fořm Óf Ťħŷ 6ØÐ ÞǑ ĆŌMÆ FÕ ŤĦŒẞ ȚĮMÆŁĪŅ6ẞ—->- with fresh blood and meat not far behiņď in their claws, waiting, waiting, for a little feast to be brought for His their child, waiting, singing, waiting-)

, survival is all there is now. All there is to try.

Where is Milgram?

I'm working on a fic, and I know a few of the theories about Milgram's actual building/location that have been passed around, but could you reblog with/send me your ideas on how the prison is physically set up in relation to the world? I want to write something encompassing a range of possibilities, not just my own headcanons. Any kind of theory -- with or without evidence, with or without every little detail worked out, just whatever you've been picturing or would like to see when the project ends :3

(Even if my fic doesn't pan out, I'll post the collection of theories I get for anyone else's research purposes👍)

Look at how convenient this roof is to mow- you simply go around the block where there's a road right beside the property. This very cool 1998 home looks a lot older and sort of "Modern Hobbit." It's in Carlisle, PA, has 3bds, 3ba, and is $600K. And, believe it or not, it's a 17 acre estate!

This is surprisingly beautiful. I love this sunroom.

It's a dining room and has shelving for plants.

Look at how big the kitchen is. It's a real gourmet kitchen- 2 islands.

Aren't the cabinets interesting?

Then, there's a lovely living room with a free-standing heat fireplace.

The owner works from home, so there's a large office for the business.

There's a sprial staircase to the 2nd level. Why would they place the dog's bowl of water there?

Look at this bedroom with all the open storage.

This bath is huge.

The toilet is by itself, surrounded by a mural.

This is a wine room.

Looks like another bedroom.

A main entrance foyer with a bench.

The stairs come up here to the second level.

I don't know what that is. A heated towel rack? With a place for boots and shoes on the bottom?

There's a very large garage.

Look at these happy dancing people. Do they come with it? Weird.

There's an office, too.

There's quite a power plant in here.

Remember there're 17 acres of land.

Such an interesting property.

Nobody is ever doing what gw2 did for elves, orcs, and dwarves ever again (sylvari, charr, asura)

[dark-elf-writes]

Was thinking about eleven year old Fawn Spots Harry and made myself laugh because he would be so angry that technology doesn’t work at Hogwarts.

Full on “What do you mean Olympus has cell service and the middle of Scotland doesn’t?! It’s not even the same plane of fucking existence and calls aren’t even long distance!” Little man has not been more than a phone call away from his family since he was adopted and he is not coping well, but beyond that the lack of online databases, easy way to compile notes and write the eight million essays they’re assigned, and actual entertainment that isn’t ’dangerous flying dodgeball’ (which he does love tbh but still not everyone does) would drive him up the wall. Fuck the lack of things like highlighters and binders would piss him off. 

He would show up with a spiral notebook and a mechanical pencil and a pureblood child would pass out from shock. He writes his family constantly begging for any and all stationary they can send. He uses breaks to type up last term’s notes and introduces the first final study guide in Times New Roman into Hogwarts and makes a killing off of selling them. The older pureblood students beg on bended knee for help making their own and the muggleborns realize oh shit they can corner the market per year and subject. Harry will drag Hogwarts into the modern age if he has to do so kicking and screaming.

Niggas Gonna Be Ok (ft. Kamus Leonardo)

Lyrics

Hook:

From the jump I’ve been through hell they thought I’d fail but I’m still here/Throughout history tried to wipe us off the map but we’re still here/In this game they want me gone but no I think I’ll stay/No matter what they say/ Niggas gonna be ok (x3)/

Verse 1:

This is my black pride/What the panthers stood for before they died/Florida textbooks won’t have inside/Can’t put this on the shelf for a quick dime/Labels tell you to not put it in your lyrics suburban kids won’t buy it/But nowadays nobody buy this shit anyway so might as well try it/I’m about this shit, ain’t gotta look like shit, niggas in suits still get lynched/You take us away and this world would look like shit without our influence/From the family to the stranger that hit the head nod when I see ya/From our highest heights to our lowest moments y’all are still my niggas/

Verse 2 (Kamus Leondardo):

Doing what I’m supposed to out in Nova Scotia/ Sipping wine watching whales, handing out Dames posters/ Can’t forget the coasters I don’t mean to sell I just used it when I rolled up/ Flickin ashes on an oyster/ Got me feeling boisterous not hearing what the noise is/ Somewhere feeding Koi fish attracting good fortune/ I don’t really care what they say we gon be okay/ I don’t really care what they say niggas gone be okay/

Verse 3:

Fuck them crackas that want to say nigga you don’t even matter/No exception I don’t care if a nigga is your favorite rapper/I don’t care if this your favorite song and you want to sing it with me/When that part come on you better mute it like we did R. Kelly/Fuck that nigga/If he locked up & all your victims black I ain’t yelling free that nigga/If he always talking down on black folks, I don’t see that nigga/We can’t let no Uncle Ruckus walk among us/I might bring back FUBU, if it’s for us then we gotta buy us/

Home, Pt. 1

Home (S01E09) gives us insight into the characters by delving into their subconscious. The misty alien entity enters the minds of the characters and constructs illusions from their thoughts. The illusions lack a sophisticated understanding of our world. Unlike the others, Sheppard is noted to be capable of manipulating his fabricated reality, which also gives us another level of insight into him while at the same time allowing him to hide parts of himself from both the audience and the other characters.

It has been suggested that Sheppard was able to do this because he lacked any real ties to earth and had no desire to return there, unlike the others. In Letters from Pegasus (S01E16) he claims not to have family back on earth, which we later learn is not exactly true, and in this episode he notes that he had spent 11 months in Antarctica prior to their departure. But -- and I'll return to this topic in the future -- his strong ATA gene also seems to make him mentally different in various ways. For one, he is able to sense or get a feel of the ancients just by being near them. But I also think that it was not just window-dressing that there was an active stargate in his subconscious mind in Doppelganger (S04E04). He is wired differently.

The episode starts in the real world, on the planet of the mist.

The team is really starting to gel together, all of them getting to become familiar with each other. While we meet them in medias res, again we get an indication of Sheppard and McKay spending time together apart from the others (and more than we see on screen) in his line "You talked me into coming here because you thought those energy readings indicated the presence of a civilization." This is the first, but it will not be the last time that Sheppard agrees to go on a mission and to drag out said mission way beyond its expiration date just to please Rodney.

Again, they walk hella close even though this time they're not even alone together:

On the planet, we see John check out hot and sweaty McKay.

Where in the previous episode Underground (S01E08) he was quite unabashed about his gazing at the other man, we also saw a change in him toward the end of the episode. His interest had suddenly become more serious. You can see it here.

He looks, and then forces himself to avert his eyes. He looks deflated, almost sad here. And he very much keeps not looking at McKay after this which is even more noticeable on this planet that has nothing on it to look at. He literally forces himself to look at nothing to keep from looking at McKay (and we are emphasized this not-looking by how both the DHD and Ford are placed between them).

The context here is that Sheppard is having to be the boss of him, the leader. The way he very softly says "Alright, then let's call it a mission" shows that he's not entirely comfortable with it, he's not quite sure how he's supposed to be navigating the situation. Like it's a suggestion, not a command. He also starts explaining himself to McKay, giving him reasons why they really should be getting back.

So, Sheppard attempts to keep a distance. But he can't manage it. After they dial the gate and McKay suddenly gets excited about the energy readings, Sheppard not only approaches him when he could well have made his inquiries from where he was standing by the gate, he walks right up to McKay, right up in his face. This was 100% unnecessary. For some reason, he just wanted to get close to the man. He's not even trying to look at McKay's device or using any other pretense for why he approached. He also utterly forgets his earlier apprehension and is suddenly real animated.

My guy.

This is also the first time of something that we see a lot in the first season but not so much later: Sheppard short-circuiting McKay's brain by saying something unexpected. The dialogue isn't usually correctly rendered in transcripts:

Sheppard: How much is a lot? McKay: What, in terms of joules or ergs? Sheppard: In terms of... lots. McKay: Well, lots and lots. What the-- Enough to open a wormhole back to earth!

They omit the middle part that expresses his utter bewilderment. This is a theme that repeats. Sheppard is forcing McKay to think of things he had never thought of in a way he had never thought of them which is definitely one of the reasons he comes to like the Major so much. McKay is so smart that he is rarely challenged, and Sheppard does it so effortlessly, in effect hacking his brain.

Also, they sure do be looking each other in the eye for a long time here.

Again, upon returning to Atlantis and in a meeting with Elizabeth, when Sheppard quips "You said it wasn't fog" his tone of voice is not in the least argumentative but is actually pretty flirty, like catching McKay contradicting himself is the most adorable thing he's ever witnessed. Accompanied by this, what can only be described as a seductive look.

Sheppard also only really relaxes, leaning back in his chair, once he learns that McKay doesn't actually want to leave Pegasus unless he knew that he could come back. So satisfied, he's suddenly fully on board with Rodney's plan. See his subtle look at Rodney as he leans back, smooth operator that he is.

A bit later we learn that he also does not want to go to Earth. In fact, he pretty much refuses. He can't even meet Weir's eyes when she mentions "home," it seems very much like he no longer considers Earth home.

Also, uh.

Was it absolutely necessary for you to be sitting next to the DHD with McKay grunting and breathing heavily under the table while he was removing the crystal, Major? Good god, the parted lips, the shifting in the chair, catching his breath before he can start talking, putting both of his hands quickly on the table and then deciding he doesn't actually know what to do with his hands right then, interlacing his fingers and pulling them back on his lap. Or... over his lap. As it were.

Please give me an innocent explanation for all of this because I just. Can't. There's even innuendo in dialogue with plugging things into empty slots with McKay making eye contact with Sheppard when he says this like we needed contextual help with eroticizing this scene.

After this, Sheppard actually zones out for a bit. Like he's in a completely different world while the others are having what is a pretty important conversation around him. Military leader in charge of the security of the mission. Where are you?

Not looking at McKay, that's for certain. Not looking at anything at all. But oh, his mind's eye is clearly seeing something, this is made clear with the raise of the eyebrow. Also, we know that he's thinking about McKay here because this is supposed to be when he's doing mental math to calculate how long it would take for them to come get McKay by jumper.

Also important: Sheppard is not the only one with flirty rejoinders and sultry looks here.

Like what is this if it isn't flirting? What?

And then there's the disappointed look on McKay's face when he ever so subtly implies that he might require some assistance on the planet and Sheppard swiftly pawns the task off to Ford. Where he is sitting right now, Sheppard does not think he should be alone with McKay on the dark, hot, sweaty, foggy planet. Like, he's not getting up from that chair for a while if you know what I mean.

But on more serious note, the episode actually comes a full circle and returns to this topic toward the end:

Sheppard makes the calculation because he actually has no intention of leaving Rodney stranded on an alien planet. He would have gone to get him even if it had taken 800 years.
