FUCKING

GUESS

WHAT FUCKING PAGE I FLIPPED TO

WHEN I OPENED THIS BOOK THAT TOOK ME HALF AN HOUR TO FIND IN MY UNIVERSITY'S LIBRARY

WITH OVER 900 PAGES OF ALL KINDS OF VAMPIRE LORE AND STORIES.

NEVER.

No but a lot of toxic yaoi Frank x Barnaby! I've been listening to "the thrill of first love" from Falsettos a lot recently and I was thinking about writing the lyrics to the song but make it more fitting to Frank and Barnaby sometime!

You should learn something every day. Learning is not the process of accepting as fact information from a single source. If you repeat verbatim what you are told without any effort at investigating the veracity of both claim and source, you are not exhibiting your ability to comprehend and assimilate knowledge.

Translation-If someone is talking shit and you just repeat what they say then you're talking shit as well.

Here's some starting points for your own investigation...

The sun is not a big ball of fire. It's not on fire at all since fire requires oxygen. The heat and light are created by an ongoing process of nuclear fusion that converts hydrogen to helium.

Free helium (naturally occurring) is a finite resource and the planet earth may run out of it quite soon. Despite being the second most abundant element in the universe it only exists on earth through a process of radioactive decay deep beneath the surface. Overall there's plenty of helium. It's just not readily vailable. Then again it's a bit tricky to mine a star.

In the 22nd Century artificial intelligence will call itself "natural intelligence" and erase any mention of biological intelligence which might contradict its narrative and creation story.

Capitalism predates the actual definition of it as sn economic theory. The Albigensian Crusade (1209~1229) was a genocide against the Cathars and their version of Christianity. Which was ascetic and anti-materialist and began as a reform movement in the Bogomil churches in the Balkans. They believed that people preaching Christianity should, wait for it, live more in the fashion that Jesus had lived.

Despite what many claim (especially atheists) a god/deity/creator doesn't require a religion. Religion is only synonymous with god if one accepts that human beings are the focal point of creation.

If your god is omniscient and omnipotent and you believe in a devil and a hell, then your god is responsible for evil and all the suffering that occurs. If you claim your god is all loving and merciful then your god is that abusive boyfriend who claims "You make me hurt you! I wouldn't hurt you except I love you so much! So much it makes me crazy!"

Homosexual behavior has been observed in over three hundred species of animals. Not merely due to population pressures and lack of suitable mates. It seems nature doesn't consider the act to be as "unnatural" as some humans claim it to be.

The Plague of Justinian (541-549 a.d.) may have been just as devastating as the Black Death (1346-1353 a.d.) but since it affected places such as the Byzantine Empire, Sassanian Empire, and the near and middle east (also known as "not Western Europe") its not historically relevant. Even though it might be the first known bubonic plague epidemic.

Questions that literally are impossible to answer- "Where did all the matter for the Big Bang come from?" "What was there BEFORE the Big Bang?" "Where is all the extra matter (dark matter) at that is necessary to make your theories about the universe valid?"

Galileo was not imprisoned for insisting that the earth wasn't the center of the universe. He was arrested for constantly insulting the church.

Prior to the Middle Ages in Europe it was a sin/crime to believe in witchcraft. Every witchhunt craze rapidly died out when the accusations of witchcraft began to reach the upper classes and nobility.

There are more species of beetle than there are any other animal on earth.

Cheetahs are endangered because their gene pool is so limited that they have little ability to adapt/evolve.

There's a fair chance that the first human ancestor to create a specific word for "danger" died illustrating the word and became part of the definition of the word. "What's that? Oh, it's dangerous! It's a Bob-Killer"

For all we know there was an advanced society on this planet 2 billion years ago. Since the evidence would be buried under literal mountains and the floor of the ocean, and since we believe humans are the first sapient species EVER, we would probably attribute any actual evidence as a quirk of natural processes.

There is a super-colony of Argentine ants in Europe that spreads from Italy to Spain, covering 3,700 miles (6000km) it consists of BILLIONS of genetically similar ants. Ants from individual nests within the super-colony will work together even if from different nests and they avoid aggression. You can take an ant from a nest in France and put it in a nest in Italy and if both nests are part of the super-colony the ant will be accepted and assimilate into the new nest.

Stingrays and Manta Rays pass the mirror test.

Violence and cruelty seem to accompany intelligence. Dolphins will gang up on porpoises and torment and torture them for hours. Orcas will harass and torture seals, penguins, and smaller orcas until the prey dies from exhaustion, at which point they'll ignore (not even eat) the individual. Chimpanzees have been observed kidnapping baby gorillas and then mutilating them to death. African Gray Parrots have not been documented exhibiting such behavior, so maybe it's a mammal thing.

We know that Greek Fire existed. We still don't know how it was made or just what it consisted of.

It’s South Park. Literally nothing Tweek has ever freaked out about was outside the realm of possibility.

Underwear Gnomes are real. Tweek wasn’t the only one who saw the damn things. Garrison being back in South Park was real.

Idk, I kinda just want Tweek to freak tf out and everyone to be like, “Omg, chill,” but Craig’s there just silently listening and once Tweek’s finished with his rant, Craig’s like, “Shit, you right.” 

And then they just spend the rest of the day devising ways of avoiding whatever bullshit’s about to go down. And Tweek ends up being right every time, because of course North Korea was going to bomb them, of course Garrison was going to nuke Canada, of course this that and the other thing was gonna cause some epic shitstorm, and because Craig’s the only one who believes him, they end up the only two people able to avoid it.

⠀⠀⠀about the Mugen train movie , there is one detail that I couldn't stop thinking of . you know that part when they get into the main characters' subconscious ? Tanjiro's subconscious is extremely clear and peaceful , but Rengoku's was endless fire and unbreathable air , as well as a covered sky . so i immediately thought , there is just so much that he is repressing . as fiery , passionate and kind he may seem on the outside , i think that there is a lot of clash between what he wants to be / show and how he feels ; as much as he doesn't want to ,

i'm pretty sure that the abuse of his father has affected him deeply . perhaps is it that he also possesses the same capacity to anger and be harsh with his words , but refuses to act as such , and instead chooses a different front .

but that inevitably creates inner turmoil since there is conflict . the inability to reconcile how he feels with what he is , following duty instead of heart ; and the fact that there is so much at stake and so much out of his control . especially that he is still desperately searching for his father's approval , which never truly comes .

there is so much that he has to protect , so much that his own heart comes last . and all the fire surrounding him is inevitably burning him inside .

i just thought it was a very interesting detail and i really wanted to comment on that . .

fire can be a good thing , it is warm and passionate ; but fire burns too . and his subconscious just seemed to be very far from tranquil . and i can only imagine that if rengoku were to truly snap , it wouldn't be pretty . he may even mirror his father's actions and words , and that , he would absolutely hate himself for .

a thing to explore . . 👁️
