I will reblog this automaton every single time I see it because I adore it and you cannot stop me.

Something i’m pondering at the moment is the idea of mechanism with motion, first set in motion 250-ish years ago, that can still move.

I want to write. I have ideas. I open document. I type four of the worst sentences ever created in the english language. I daydream the rest of the scene. I close document.

People who don’t want to read The Martian in case the science is too complicated should be informed that it contains the lines “The best way to store the ingredients of water is to make them be water”, “It is of course dangerous to set off an explosive device on a spacecraft”, and “If I cut a hole in the wall of the hab, the air won’t stay inside any more”.

I love this fucking book

there’s an entire chapter dedicated to him wondering how the cubs are doing while he’s stuck on mars, dying

I like the part where the guys on Earth are like “He thinks we all gave up on him, and that he’s completely alone. I wonder what he’s thinking about right now.” And he’s like “How come Aquaman can control whales?”

"Taylor Swift is the patron saint of a Brazilian soccer team" is not something I expected to learn today

i saw a few versions of this on tw*tter but it bears repeating. john mulaney is never going to see your shitty little takes and “jokes” about addiction and rehab. but your friends who are struggling with addiction and substance abuse and trying to overcome the stigma around going to rehab and seeking help will. especially now when the increase in addiction that occurs during the holidays is compounded with the pandemic. i wish john all the best. i’m so proud of him and everyone else struggling right now. it’s so hard to ask for help. don’t be an asshole.

can someone please explain how it’s possible that every single month this year ended as quickly as it started and yet this whole year has felt like an eternity

a soulmate is a person that won’t complain about any of my music when i put my ipod on shuffle

i complain about my own music when its on shuffle what are you talking about
