i’m late to the fire emblem party. 

the chain of events in this minute and a half clip is so extremely delightful and funny

no im gradually weaning myself off it

I love giving people minions that I think would match their look and I think I hit peak today

they call it a uterus because it sure ain't mine

making a collection

not my circus, not my monkeys

Look at this phonograph

it'd feel better if this would ever break containment. I cannot believe we've only got 800 notes. This deserves better.

...ceci n'est pas une phonograph

that's not a phonograph; its a picture of a phonograph.

When it comes to electrons and protons, you have now created a coulomb explosion. Its hard to tell which of the two is worse, both would create some absurdly powerful explosion, but my gut says protons would be worse since you not only get atoms repelling each-other, but individual nuclei like ²He blowing themselves apart too. Also maybe some fallout from longer lived unstable stuff, once again depending on your choice of target

Going by Ciftja (2011), this corresponds to roughly a potential energy of 4x10^23 J, or basically the same energy as the Chixulub meteorite impact (notable for causing the extinction of the non-avian dinosaurs). Contained within a cube of roughly 5cm per side, this energy is going to dissipate with little regard for anything in its way in a manner that would likely expose a nontrivial portion of the Earth's mantle and I'd imagine liberate at least some terrestrial material to escape velocity. I think if there's a motivation for protons being worse here it's that they are more massive and therefore will deliver more of their energy relatively locally rather, whereas I can imagine some meaningfull portion of an absurd electron cloud blasting off to deep space at ultrarelativistic speed. I'm not convinced it's plausible for any nuclear effects to perceptibly change the outcome of "the greatest explosion experienced on Earth since the end of Late Heavy Bombardment".

Wait for it

(or that the driver that other people so clearly see is, in fact, not)

it says don’t talk to me until I’ve had my barley mash with pomegranate syrup and dried dates

This little bug has thoroughly stolen my heart.

So then he got to hear my thoughts on brown vs black widows and why I wished there were as many black widows as there used to be but I had a big beautiful one under my patio table right now and even if I prefer black widows because they aren't invasive the same way that brown widows are i still like the brown widows and i had a lovely one who lived in my patio chair from August until the firestorm in January and she was so good and kept eating cockroaches and had made five big egg sacks and how I was so proud of her and I used to have a lot more orb weavers but their numbers never recovered after the tropical storm last year but I had a cute one on the shed that I took a picture of yesterday and of course there are tons of wolf spiders and jumping spiders and cellar spiders if you wanted to count them too and some false widows but I hadn't seen any of them this year and, well, yeah, anyway they're not actually dangerous mostly and widows want nothing to do with you but a bite wasn't pleasant but much better than a recluse bite but I almost never see recluses around here but i wouldn't, would I, because they're not called brown gregarious spiders, oh and there are black footed yellow sack spiders around and you don't want those to bite you but their little toes are so cute and I'm sorry, sorry, sorry like I said I can go off about spiders, but also I don't want to spray because I've got so many pollinators, I've got a whole wisteria vine full of carpenter bees, actually i saw a male valley carpenter bee last week, did you know they're golden and fuzzy? He was so cool! But, yes, sorry, I won't be spraying but thank you for asking, and I'm sorry I was the crazy spider lady at you!

They are delightful and they eat actual pests, I love them.

"I'm. I'm good." He said, and left.
