baby judebug and her biiiiig smile 🥹

i think one of the first things jude and preston bond over is sharing happy childhood memories. so i’ve been noodlin’ and doodlin’ about it on and off in between studying. judebug was a really exuberant and knobby kid, and she was alwayssss sunburned. and of course her favorite color was (and still is) pink 🩷

Idk if it’s common knowledge how a nuclear energy is generated. But on the assumption it’s not, I had to learn a little in Environmental science A levels.

I shit you not, they are harnessing the power of splitting the fucking atom just to boil some water. It’s just a high tech kettle. When you boil your kettle you are doing the same thing these people are using Uranium for.

All these crazy energy generation methods and almost all of them revolve around boiling water to turn a turbine.

Earth is not just a Terrestrial World; it’s an Exotic Terrestrial: a Water World.

Water is weird, ok? Everything else that’s anywhere close to its molecular weight is very much vaporous gas at similar conditions to water’s triple point. It’s weirdly easy to make carry an electrical charge (we call it an acid or a base when it’s doing this). It’s polarized as fuck, so it’s squirrely, infiltrating all kinds of stuff you normally think of as being solid, like metal and stone.

Water bonds to itself really well, so the transition from liquid or solid to gas, and back, involves a really profound change in volume.

The Water Cycle, whereby Water goes from solid to liquid to gas in all kinda directions, runs a lot of our geologic and mineral cycles, like the nitrogen and carbon and silicone ones. Plate tectonics is partially enabled by lubrication from the ocean infiltrating the earth’s crust.

It kinda… makes sense? That we’d have Water-based technology? As inhabitants of a Water World? From a world-building standpoint I mean.

We hacked one of the driving forces of our world, and use that power to run our civilization.
