understanding, trust, and reliability on both sides.

It's shown how in tune they are with each other; they always take notice when the other is badly affected by something and point it out. Great examples of this are when Logan sees Virgil freaking out and addresses it, trying to get out of the situation, and when Virgil stops Roman and Logan's argument to point out Logan's poorly hidden distress.

They understand one another, they can see where the other is coming from, even if it freaks them out or they don't agree with a point, there's never hostility like with Roman, covering up how they feel about it like Patton does, or a hidden agenda like with Janus. They are both people who feel intensely but don't like to let it show, even if one is in less denial about feelings. They are both put in similar situations a lot, where they have to be the voices of reason and work together a lot. They are both viewed as downers contributing to their relationship (ro or pl) and further understanding of each other having similar views on situations, or as said, " a better understanding of reality".

Enthought, they view reality through a different lens, one being objective and the other pessimistic; they are still similar in their concerns, being able to point out problems. Now here's the big difference: Virgil can point out a problem but can't solve it. In his own words, " I can point out a problem, but I'm not innovative enough to solve it." But guess who is? logan, of course! This helps them work to a broader conclusion and also be good friends. Because Virgil knows he can't solve the problem, but he knows Logan can, and Logan doesn't always see when there's a problem, so he can trust Virgil to point it out.

They understand, trust, and rely on each other because they know each other and have an understanding that none of the others have. Yes, this is still relevant even with the new episode; they have not stopped trusting each other. Actually, Virgil's fear when Logan confirms something he feared shows how much he trusts Logan. Just because Logan didn't say what Virgil hoped he would isn't the end of a good relationship.

Good Night.

So I put this as one of the backgrounds

Yesterday, I found that someone changed my background to something soccer related, so just to mess around with them, I put this

Today, I looked at all the computers around me, plus my computer and

You children…………..

Since it's a season of...something...mostly lights...do me a favour would you? You know this image of Tutankhamun?

The documentary it comes from was terrible. It grossly exaggerated some deformities present on Tutankhamun's mummy, and is not even remotely how he looked in real life. The people who did this study never had access to his mummy, and really fudged their conclusions for a 'showstopper documentary' so much so that the Egyptian government was angry about it.

Lets list the things that are wrong!

The 'wide hips' only exist on this model because they wanted him to look more 'Amarna like'. The loin cloths found in his tomb are all standard size.

He doesn't have an overbite. This is a result of poor mummification and Carter's poor treatment of the mummy when removing it from the death mask.

He does have a cleft palate, but it's in the soft palate and he wouldn't have noticed it.

He doesn't have a severe club foot. Medical professionals have examined him repeatedly over the years. None have ever pointed it out bar the noting of a 'slight rotation' which wouldn't have been noticeable when he walked if this is indeed a club foot and not another mummification mess up. He would not have needed a staff to walk with this slight rotation. Some staffs in his tomb show wear, but it is normal in Egyptian society to walk with a staff as a sign of power. He has 120 and only 3 show slight wear.

The articles about him 'always being seated and thus very disabled' fail to note that it is common for Pharaoh's of this period to be depicted seated, and there are numerous depictions of him standing doing actions too.

This documentary made him look as bad as possible, based on terrible science, and now every time someone doesn't depict him 'gross and disabled' people complain that he's not 'ugly enough', which is ableist as hell alongside the already ableist exaggerated CGI depiction.

One of my favourite images of Tutankhamun is this one from the top of an ivory box found within his tomb:

Hips that wide would be noticeable even looking at the CT. His pelvis looks exactly how I’d expect a young man’s pelvis to look.

Club foot like that would be really obvious on the bones and would also be visible on the CT image.

His feet in the CT image look pretty normal so any abnormality that is present is so minor that it would need very close examination and measurement of precise angles to notice and/or diagnose. 

It’s certainly possible that he had pain and/or had it impact his mobility without a severe case but that’s not even a good depiction of a severe case of clubfoot. If it was really that severe all his toes would be curled under, not just half of them, and it would also be really fucking obvious in the CT and in the mummy, which is it not.

They’ve done something weird to his head/torso proportions, probably by failing to take into account that if someone is wrapped then it squeezes all the bones in so his shoulders look narrower in mummified form than they would have in life.

There are also two more albino humpbacks alive currently, including a baby that we think may be Migaloo’s spawn.

There are also multiple albino orcas and dolphins, some in captivity and some in the wild.

And we recently found a white sperm whale. Just a lil baby. Look at the small man;
