I had a horrible realization.

Cyn is the opposite of a furry.

The Amazing Digital Circus certainly is amazing. I absolutely love it, though I'm still memorizing the characters names.

I want to talk about Jax. He is my favorite and he seems to be a popular favorite and least favorite. It's clear that he's an asshole character-unapologetically so. It makes sense that his popularity is divided.

What I think specifically makes me like him is not just because of his blunt and comedic act, but also because it seems to me that his act is not because he doesn't care. To an extent, he doesn't. The games and world they are stuck in means nothing to him. I do think he does care about the others though, he's just not nice about it.

When Kinger was standing next to the hole, Jax threw the bowling ball at him to knock him down. On the surface level, this just seemed like a meanspirited thing to do. But with context of the abstracted, he seems to have been trying to get the others away from danger without informing them about it. Yes he could have done it so many better ways, but that seems to be his character. Personally this is why I find him so fun.

I'm having trouble finding a job and I would really like to open up commissions again, but I would like to reach out to you all and ask what you guys would like to see from me?

You can use this post to list fandoms you'd like to see art of, if you'd prefer full price commissions or $5 sketches through Ko-Fi. I will put a poll below. I am willing to work with fandoms I don't know too, along with OCs as long as there is at least a written reference.

Thank you all so much and I will have an updated commission sheet up soon!

so a girl just told me she's been flirting with me for weeks but that i was too oblivious to notice. but like. i'm ace and probably aro. what if i end up hurting her feelings cause i can't like her that way? she's so nice but i feel like we don't know each other cause we barely started talking to each other(she told me she's been flirting with me since forever but that's a different story cause most of the things she says is flirting were really just friend things)

so i told her i don't see her that way bc we don't know each other that well and she hasn't answered me yet and idk what to do

i feel like i'm in a romance story except those characters always end up liking the other person or hating them and i really don't want to hate her

there's also the fact that she sees me as a girl, and not as nonbinary or agender or whatever the hell i am (i've only seen her with men i didn't even know she was queer???)

tumblr what do i do should i go on a date with her or try to get to know her or ignore this ever happened or ignore her I DONT KNOWWWWW

#oversharing on tumblr dot com cause she follows me everywhere else #she was also saying how she could tell i never had anyone flirting with me like 😭😭 #still unreal how she was FLIRTING with ME #space talks

sometimes I forget I’m barely in my mid 20’s, that my life doesn’t end at 30, and I have time to do a lot of shit still. So I should just chill out for a second before I go straight into panic mode when shit goes sideways, I need to stop and just let myself breathe.

So Venus is my favorite planet in the solar system - everything about it is just so weird.

It has this extraordinarily dense atmosphere that by all accounts shouldn't exist - Venus is close enough to the sun (and therefore hot enough) that the atmosphere should have literally evaporated away, just like Mercury's. We think Earth manages to keep its atmosphere by virtue of our magnetic field, but Venus doesn't even have that going for it. While Venus is probably volcanically active, it definitely doesn't have an internal magnetic dynamo, so whatever form of volcanism it has going on is very different from ours. And, it spins backwards! For some reason!!

But, for as many mysteries as Venus has, the United States really hasn't spent much time investigating it. The Soviet Union, on the other hand, sent no less than 16 probes to Venus between 1961 and 1984 as part of the Venera program - most of them looked like this!

The Soviet Union had a very different approach to space than the United States. NASA missions are typically extremely risk averse, and the spacecraft we launch are generally very expensive one-offs that have only one chance to succeed or fail.

It's lead to some really amazing science, but to put it into perspective, the Mars Opportunity rover only had to survive on Mars for 90 days for the mission to be declared a complete success. That thing lasted 15 years. I love the Opportunity rover as much as any self-respecting NASA engineer, but how much extra time and money did we spend that we didn't technically "need" to for it to last 60x longer than required?

Anyway, all to say, the Soviet Union took a more incremental approach, where failures were far less devastating. The Venera 9 through 14 probes were designed to land on the surface of Venus, and survive long enough to take a picture with two cameras - not an easy task, but a fairly straightforward goal compared to NASA standards. They had…mixed results.

Venera 9 managed to take a picture with one camera, but the other one's lens cap didn't deploy.

Venera 10 also managed to take a picture with one camera, but again the other lens cap didn't deploy.

Venera 11 took no pictures - neither lens cap deployed this time.

Venera 12 also took no pictures - because again, neither lens cap deployed.

Lotta problems with lens caps.

For Venera 13 and 14, in addition to the cameras they sent a device to sample the Venusian "soil". Upon landing, the arm was supposed to swing down and analyze the surface it touched - it was a simple mechanism that couldn't be re-deployed or adjusted after the first go.

This time, both lens caps FINALLY ejected perfectly, and we were treated to these marvelous, eerie pictures of the Venus landscape:

However, when the Venera 14 soil sampler arm deployed, instead of sampling the Venus surface, it managed to swing down and land perfectly on….an ejected lens cap.

I need a new car. It's not an emergency right yet but my car is rusted out in the bottom. We put some holes in the frame when we jacked it up to put a new tire on.

So I'm going to make a new commission page and open commissions. Look out for that soon!
