Happy birthday River!!!

River forgot he claimed that today was his birthday, sometimes lying catches up to you.

#fhr #fhr art #sidestep #wei chen #lady argent #herald #julia ortega #ortega #Retri doesnt take place in 2024 but based on the year river claimed he was born (1988) then he'd technically be nine years old today #happy birthday loser! love you baby boy #idle art #my art #oc: River Becker

happy belated 20 years to Melvin turning himself into a booger

#j's posts #melvin #transforming into the walking embodiment of your allergies will do messed up things to your immune system #okay if you assume melvin is 9 in 1997 #that would mean he was born in 1988 which means he would be 35 in 2023 #a 35-year-old roboticist with a jacked immune system and lingering superpowers.....yeah.....

Wait a second. Was Scratch born on 1978???

#He would be 9 on 1987 and 10 on 1988 #bill confirmed he and adia were about those age during the flashback #This is kinda weirding me out cuz Pete looks like he’s already 15 on 1987 and I always thought scratch would be the same age or older lol #BUT THIS IS COOL #he’s probably born on the 78th #OOOO #the ghost and molly mcgee #tgamm #adia tgamm #theory

i need to find that one post thats like 'sometimes you see a fandom opinion that's clearly wrong to you, but you realize YOU'RE the outlier for perfectly remembering that one sentence that disproves it in ep eleventy' cause i just realized that jon and martins ages are collectively mentioned in 2 episodes in canon, and not everyone might immediately remember them unprompted

#tma #(martin: MAG56 'and im only 29!' #jon: MAG81 'i was a child in the nineties; #and a fun calculation where he says he was 8 'a year or two' after Jurgens library was destroyed. which was of course 1996ish. #so born in ~1988) #joos yaps #i think this is relatively common knowledge in the fandom still and not that hard to find BUT #character details like that aren't mentioned often in tma #tma s3

after seeing your posts, i'm shocked at just HOW inaccurate the far cry wiki is— i've seen mistakes in wikis before, but never so many at once... thank you for putting up the truth here! with proof and everything. you're doing the lord's work 💕

Thank you :)

Well, not everything is bad on the Far Cry Wiki, and I’m sure many contributors want to do things right, but some of them clearly don’t care... On Sharky’s page, for example, the quote they wrote isn’t even his! And last time I checked that page’s history, I think he had had like 6 different ages, 5 years of birth, 3 heights, and 5 weights. I even remember that most of those edits had been made by the same contributor. Why??

#and that person never got any of the numbers right #it’s normal and fine to have headcanons #but they don’t belong on a wiki page #especially if you have zero evidence and change your mind every week #sharky boshaw #someone was really like ‘he’s 30. no 33. no wait 35’ #at one point he was 35 and born in 1988 #which ​doesn’t make any sense because the game takes place in 2018 #oh well it’s the far cry wiki #that said I read the french wikipedia page for fc5 the other day and… #did you know that miller was actually eaten by wolves? #or that grace’s dad was killed because the cult wanted their shooting range? #and that pratt tends to ‘quickly stress out fast’? #(it’s the phrasing that got me haha) #far cry 5

it's june 12th of 1988 and hes a dad now

#HES HOLDING BABY BETTY AND PAUL !!!!!! #phantoms art #pvz #pvz: betty #pvz: paul #ALSO for clarification i hc pvzh to take place in 2004 so the year when the twins are 16 #so they were born in 1988

[todayisafridaynight]

now that it’s valentines day here’s a reminder that mine and daigo got to share one last valentine’s (and maybe also white) day together before mine game ends himself

#snap chats #cant draw so <3 #i say Debatably white day too since there's no day given only that y3 concludes in march of 2009 #and white day's march 14th so #another FF because we know when yakuza 3 takes place we can vaguely figure out mine and daigo's birth months #well not Figure Out but we have a fair time table #we already know daigo was born in 1976 since he's 12 by 1988 in Y0 #and by 2009 mine states that daigo's only older than him by a bit and going off of wht we know daigo's 33 by Y3 #aka his birthday's already passed so he was born either sometime in-between january or early march #though maybe late february is a better option since mine's birthday has to pass too since he's ALSO 33 by y3 #their birthdays are Probably close to each other's aint that cute <3 they. #they got to celebrate each other's birthdays one more time i have to stop reminding myself of this fact #anyways happy valentines day mine sucked i guess but tomorrow'll be better

I might be wrong about this but I’m pretty sure Alan Alda’s first grandchild wasn’t born yet when he made A New Life which would make the whole storyline where his daughter played by his actual daughter tells him she’s pregnant and then later he meets the baby hilarious… like what level of telling your kids you want grandkids is this….

#that movie was 1988 I think #and I don’t THINK his first grandkid was born until the 90s #but I might be wrong #i just remember he was in a play at the time and felt the need to tell the entire audience about it

[oscarwetnwilde]

This looks like a commercial for fancy hair products.

#James Wilby #Clearing out my drafts #A Handful Of Dust #A 90s hair commercial ad but from 1988 #Tony Last #Maybe he's born with it #Maybe it's Maybelline

Under the latest blog entries section you can see the dates some (not all) of his posts were made, the earliest being 7-20-07, and his age is listed in a section that doesn’t seem to change automatically

Sorry if this seems rude, just wanted to explain /gen

Ah I see. Yeah it could be that he just. Never bothered to change it or something. Just a tad confusing if that’s the case, just by a lore standpoint

#asks are neat #cause if he was born in 1988 then yeah he’d be 21 by 2009

ok friends, how do i make my way into the one career i was born to (continuity checker for a long-running tv show)???

#i will find the SMALLEST THING #in a s5 episode of the resident dr bell says you sound like my father grumbling about cordless phones (or something like that #) and I'm already over here remembering that in s2 bell said that both of his parents died while he was a resident and in an earlier s5 #episode he mentioned hitchhiking the summer between college and med school indicating he went straight from college to med school #putting his approximate age that his father died as maybe 30 plus or minus two years? #and i'm over here doing math about when that would have been and wondering if cordless phones were even around before then #according to a very quick google search #cordless phones did grow in existence/popularity a lot in the 1980s so my memory of them still being new in the early 2000s is just more #evidence that my parents are late adopters of all technology #so this checks out because bell says he is 60ish in 2020 which clearly means at least 62 in context of...how he says it #so let's say he was born in 1958 and was 30 in 1988 #so that side quip passes actual muster #but AJ???? #was he adopted as a baby by the parents we meet or did he bounce around in foster care until he was like 7??? #what does the A stand for???? #these actual important details are unclear if not outright contradictory based on the evidence provided at different points #i wrote a whole analysis here about kit's back story which I do ultimately think passes muster but there are so many unanswered questions #about how it would have happened and it almost seems like some parts of it were not established with the full consideration of other parts #and also they couldn't at least get extras to play her daughters in the background at the wedding??? #they recast AJ's mom they could recast kit's family if needed but why weren't they at least there? #this is the kind of thing i would correct and i think audiences would thank me #me myself und ei

sliman mansour - also referred to as suleiman mansour - is a palestinian painter, sculptor and cartoonist. he was born one year before the nakba in 1947 in birzeit, which is north of ramallah. he now resides in jerusalem. mansour is one of the most famous palestinian artists of all time, and palestinian american artist samia halaby considers him to be part of the liberation art movement¹. his art focuses on the concept of samud², or "a firm rootedness in the land." he is a founder of the league of palestinian artists³.

on using only palestinian materials during the first intifada⁴:

That was the philosophy of the intifada. When you read their literature and leaflets, it's about boycotting Israeli goods and trying to rely on ourselves. Most people were trying to do that, by planting their land or starting a small farm to live from. As an artist I thought, why don't we do the same? Why don't we search for natural materials to do our work from?

The mud came from my childhood memories. As a child I used to work with my grandmother when she was building beehives and even ovens with mud. And I was always around her, trying to help. So when I thought about material that I could use, mud was the first thing that came to my mind. After a while, once I started making figures, I realized that the mud also reflects the human fate with the cracks, people waiting to disappear, fall down and go away.

go take a look at his art. reblog with your favorite pieces of his.

The song American Pie is such a fascinating phenomenon to me like.

I was born in 1988 and had no cultural like knowledge or feelings about Buddy Holly or The Big Bopper or anything obviously because they had not been... Alive when I was alive! I did not experiencewhat it was like to live through the plane crash they died in in real time! I have no experiential reference for that at all! And I also had no knowledge of what American Pie was ABOUT before my dad explained it to me when I was about 10. And even then it's like... okay, so these musicians died in a plane crash. That's sad. But like. There is no way to read the wiki article about this event and feel the way that this song feels about it! There just isn't

But American Pie is just it's such a masterfully crafted song musically and in terms of sheer EMOTION and the way all the metaphors somehow come together to make you be like "SO true Don Mclean" even though you have no idea what the jester stealing the kings thornéd crown Represents at all

Like I used to hear that song on the radio and BAWL. I don't know anyone who doesn't sing along passionately when it comes on the radio. Somehow the sheer feeling that he manages to put into the song itself just FORCEFULLY POSSESSES YOU even though you do not really care or may not even KNOW what the fuck event he is singing about! Like it's A CLASSIC and younger ppl with absolutely noooooo like, touchstone to what it Means are and will continue to be obsessed with it because it somehow just. (Gestures)

I feel really emotional about this when I think about it because I am not a musician but I am a storyteller and an artist and I feel like this is such THE goal of creating art to communicate some deep wrenching feeling about an experience you have had that somehow is so skilled at hacking into the feelings core of almost every human who consumes it in spite of them not relating to that experience AT ALL

I just think that's a really magical thing about the way humans can communicate through art you know? Makes me feel SUCH FEELINGS

#like this song just came on the radio and i was INSTANTLY like omg they DID both kick off their shoes omg sooo true don #wtf is this phenomenon.

writing pe!actors on actors one shot and realized i should’ve chosen pe!reader’s ex anyone other than ryan gosling who can be closer to her age 😀

#unalive me #she’s turning 34 #that makes her born in 1988 #he’s born in 1980 #her being 20 and him being 28 when they started dating makes me very uncomfortable
