I’m already seeing a lot of hate for Nimbus that I just don’t understand. And surprisingly it’s not the usual obtuse “why couldn’t they just make HIM a MAN, HE already is one!!” It’s people saying they aren’t good NB representation, and that they are a stereotype, and that the design itself is bad because it reinforces the “stereotypical idea of NB people”. And to that I say, I will take what I can get.
Honestly I enjoy seeing any NB characters at all because I grew up not seeing people like me anywhere in media. To see it now as an adult, even if they are a little stereotypical, is a huge step. Especially in a big game like Destiny 2. A game that was originally designed and marketed towards young straight men, like most fps are. Games like this don’t exactly have a track record of being inclusive, let’s be honest.
Reform and change doesn’t happen in an instant, it happens gradually. Nimbus will walk so that more NB characters can run. So enjoy what we have and appreciate that we are being represented in a game at all. 5-10 years ago we didn’t have anything and that’s much worse than a funky little thembo who fights with a surfboard as a weapon.

how cool would it be if for next year’s record store day Louis released the 2020 livestream on vinyl and CD. that’s basically what the 1975 are doing this RSD, except it’s their 2016 performance in blackpool with the BBC philharmonic orchestra not a recording of a livestream.

Irks Me when people dismiss classical adaptations as all being, like, YA hades and persephone or #girlboss retellings or whatever when there is in actuality such a rich history of incredibly interesting reinterpretations of the classics especially by marginalized groups. i promise the world is wider than madeline miller

Five years of physics at university level and I still don’t understand electricity, electromagnetism and analog or digital sound recording or amplification
#I’m like okay so the human voice makes sound the usual way. Vibrations in the air. Get that. Get how it’s produced how it’s transmitted and#how it is heard by humans. Fine. Then you’re saying they speak into a microphone and those vibrations are converted into varying voltages#and that signal travels through a cable to a sound desk and then travels through another cable to the speakers#Where the voltage signal is converted back into a vibrating thing which is pushing the air and is making sound as we know it#And somehow after all that electricity we’ve now got a faithful reproduction of that human voice but louder now#And then you tell me. You do the first part. But then the signal is sent to a computer and is sampled at a very high rate and the voltages#are converted into 1s and 0s (which are actually also voltages but they’re just binary signals. Like a voltage of 0 or 5mv. That kind of th#And this highly sampled voltage signal which is now represented as 1s and 0s can be written onto a cd or played directly from a computer#And somehow we get that human voice back#I DONT UNDERSTAND IT#how is voltage a sound 😭#And then there’s also magnetic tapes and vinyl records. Which again I get but also it’s coming back to recreating those voltage signals.#Either by a needle moving up and down over spinning grooves#Or something with magnetic tape I don’t know how tapes are actually read#But electricity. I don’t get it.#And with all this I have to worry about electromagnetic fields and impedance and interference because they’re real electrical signals and#come with all the electromag physics of that!

#it’s me i’m bitches.#there’s just SO MUCH going on in those three minutes and all of it destroys me!!!!!#stede leaving on his own with nothing but a dinghy and the clothes he has on but perfectly content because he’s going out to find ed again??#“to stede bonnet… now free. long may he roam.” ?????#fang and ed and izzy standing all threatening together and izzy literally pointing a gun at frenchie??#FRENCHIE RAISING THE. THE FUCKING FLAG AHSJSKTJDJAJSJASJAJSKSKSK?!!!!!!!!?????!!!!!#THE LINGERING SHOT OF THE FLAG!!!#that birds eye view shot of kraken ed???#seeing that jim is being held hostage??#ED CRYING OVER THE LIGHTHOUSE PAINTING??????? AS IT SHOWS STEDE’S EMPTY ROOM???? WITH LITERALLY ONLY THE PAINTING LEFT THERE?????#AND THE FACT THAT ED IS CURLED UP WHERE STEDE’S BED USED TO BE!!!#and the sound of ed’s sobs being the first thing we’ve really heard over the music since the sound of stede rowing out to the ocean !#well and then there’s the whole island scene but i’m choosing to ignore that until!! olu’s little “oh fuck me” as he looks out and!!#sees stede!!#most of the sound cutting out as we see- through olu’s telescope- stede standing up and holding his arm out to them??!!!#BEING THEIR LIGHTHOUSE???!!!!!!#and then the music cutting back in with the “i love everything” part of the song right as the credits start rolling!!!!!#it all!!!!! makes me so insane!!!!!!!!!!!!!#anyways it’s fine i’m fine i’m normal this is fine#our flag means death#ofmd#eli.posts

#we had a discord meeting with friends and thing is. i told everyone today that i got a soul crushing diagnosis#literally never cry to my friends but bawled my eyes out on a#whatre they called. voice message? yeah and one of my friends sent an empathetic text back in the group chat#one friend called and the other texted too but then in the discord meeting the first friend was really quiet most of the time and i was#glad to be thinking about something else than my stuff and be just chit chatting; when second friend asked the first if everything was okay#and ? she had the gall to say really angrily that no it isn’t and she has been crying like crazy all day because she feels like she isn’t#enough and does everything wrong#all the time. now this is not a new convo. we’ve talked about this vountless times and yeah she’s depressed clearly but doesn’t want to#admit it and i’ve told her (after comforting her many times) that she should really go talk to someone about it because if she just keeps#crying go us we’re just gonna go in circles and she isn’t gonna feel any better. like i’ve said everything that i possibly could to make#her feel better. and she has the GALL to say she’s been crying her eyes out when she KNOWS i literally heard i’m gonna lose feeling and#motoric skills in my hands and feet. and nothing can be done about it. and i for once showed how awful that felt.#i quickly told her that i hope the feeling passes because it’s baseless and she’s enough and worthy and really dear to all of us and then i#went to the toiler for a short while. and thought like. why couldn’t i judt once have said like. i’ve been crying about other things#altogether like hinting to the fact that that wasn’t appropriate. because she’s not gonna change. i should’ve said it for once because the#circle is just gonna continue. like. fuck#and at the same time i understand i really do but i don’t think however miserable i was that i couldn’t put my own worries aside at least#for the day. like TODAY i found out today . so if she’s miserable in her relationship (which i originally said was a bad ideaaaa) and it#makes her feel overall bad#. just!!!!! ahhhh. keep it to yourself for today. like i could’ve talked about my problems but i didn’t. so#v.personal#if you read this sorry sldntbtb#but also thank you. i’m not in a good place myself and i feel awkward and i know it can be taxing to read other people’s personal stuff on#your dash so if you did read this thank you

It says a lot about Andor that I have seen zero gifsets since the first three episodes dropped and all anyone on here cares about is getting in on the Goncharov joke before it expires

Brb because I just woke up from a manic dream and will probably fall back asleep but anyway come on guys, say it with me, “if I don’t live in South Korea/am not South Korean then I have no say on how the South Korean government should treat enlistment when it comes to my faves because it is not my place as a fan to tell an entire government what to do”

reading the instructions my mom left for my dad about caring for me as a baby 🥺 “she’s a very quiet, content child” “she loves to listen to you read and likes to turn the pages and stand up (with assistance)” “she’s good at quieting down if you leave her alone to take a nap” “if she’s inconsolable, take her for a drive.”
