Happy pride month to the tiny cowboy and tiny Trojan man from Night at the Museum

happy pride month 2021 I ain’t quittin’ you…

A few years from now, we're going to discover that the "data centers" that are buying all the RAM and GPUs and never using them were actually shell companies made by time traveling scalpers who think they can turn a profit by buying RAM and GPUs at pre-AI war prices at a huge markup to the survivors trying to rebuild society.

In this post-war world, the highest priority has been given to ensuring the preservation and access of information sites such as Wikipedia, the Internet Archive, Github, and any sites hosting scientific articles, media, and How-to guides.

Tumblr also still exists because this site refuses to die. It somehow runs better on the post-war hardware.

If you like the word “queer” reblog.

#fun umbrella. we r all sitting under it like the big rainbow thing in elementary school gym class

Luke’s face is what makes this.

@gallusrostromegalus Tagging cuz you know scientific illustrators and also illustrate plants, maybe?

The flowering plant is Ivy-Leaved Toadflax, and it's companion fern is a Maidenhair Spleenwort. Both are plants that have adapted well to living on stone walls. The flowers of the Toadflax are heliotropic, meaning they turn to stay facing the sun, until they've been pollinated and fertilized, whereupon they twist around and back down into the plant/crevice they came out of, effectively planting their own seeds back in the wall.

Ok yeah that lake is superior

“Big Pharma” okay are we talking about how privatization and monetization has deeply corrupted the field of medicine or are you talking about how you think chemicals in the water are making the frogs gay

“GMOs”? Are we talking seeds that grow sterile plants and patenting genetic modifications then destroying any competition no matter how small they are? Or are we talking life saving rice with vitamin a to make sure kids don’t go blind in regions not suited for other high vit a veg? … or are we talking about your chidoodle?

Conversely, “alternative medicines”? Are we talking the traditional practices of non-Western societies which have an ancient history of being the cultural tools that allowed communities to take care of the health of their members and are nowadays rigorously studied within these communities to adapt them to the needs of the contemporary life, and can offer important prompts to modern medicine? Or are we talking about a white woman who traveled to India twice, followed a five-hour seminar and knows everything about inner energies now

Mossy and Steena, legendary kitties having a chat, my beloved

people have this tendency to believe that fandom discourse exists because people in fandoms are Stupid Nerdy Losers, but in fact fandom discourse exists because anytime you get a group of more than 100 people together, they will start creating interpersonal bullshit. fandom is not special in this regard

There is sports discourse. There is yarn discourse. There is food discourse. There is academic discourse (dear sweet god is there academic discourse). If there are people out there collecting brass buttons specifically from 1921, they are going to have discourse about which buttons are trash and whether Person A cheated person B. To be human is to engage in pointless wankery sometimes.
