Figured Out What A Horse Is

Dude my coworker left a scrumptious cookie unattended

young old person tip for you all. go get some photos printed (pauses so someone can say bogos binted) and fill out a physical album

and annotate them with who is in the photos and when and where the photos were taken!!! your extended family 50 years from now will be grateful, and so will you if you end up forgetting any details

(sprints into room late, looking harried and frantic as fuck) bogos binted. did I miss it

I actually think that science fiction has done everyone a disservice by presenting escaping to another planet as a remotely feasible near-term solution to problems on Earth.

Like, I’m sorry, but if terraforming Mars is an option then why can’t we just terraform the Earth?

(I mean, this last bit isn’t actually a great argument, because a lot of techniques proposed for terraforming involve such things as smashing asteroids into planets, blocking out their view of the sun for decades at a time, or seeding the entire planet’s surface with novel extremophile bacteria, which would be unthinkable on Earth; but the point still stands! It would be vastly easier to restore Earth to a healthy climate than to make Mars even as habitable as the peak of Mount Everest)

As Mars is fuck-off far away, it’s really expensive to send even a robot the size of a compact car there, half of all uncrewed missions there fail, and we don’t even know how to land a crewed one yet.

Did you see anything about how china returned Przwalskis horses to it’s steppe and effectively halted desertification bc keystone species can do stuff like that? Technically terra forming, perfectly doable to engineer/ restore all sorts of earth ecosystems, and SO MUCH MORE FEASIBLE than anything that can be done on Mars.

Yeah just do the math on fuel and life support. Even getting one horse to Mars is a logistics nightmare!

I think the Mongols actually get close but their space program lost funding once Kublai Khan died.

people act like damian is so stoic and serious and ignorant of anything fun. you fool you fell for the mask. he's drawing pictures of fluttershy in a notebook under the covers with a flashlight

i love writing out numbers and then putting them in parentheses like "one (1)" even when i dont need to i think its funny

academic writing these days is always like “be/longing” “re-membering” “(under)standing”

STEM academic writing is like "we present the results of the ACRONYM project (A ContRived mnemOnic is NecessarY Material)"

giving my small dollgirl a place to play "outside" by putting its house in a terrarium

finally some fricking accomodation

Unfortunately theres still the beast that occupied the terrarium before the dollhouse hiding out there somewhere. So like. Watch out.
