i hope i never stop being amazed at the power of latent learning, like wow how cool is it to practice something a little bit, take a long break so it can sink in, and then return and do it beautifully??? amazing phenomenal and so so cool

#dogblr #dog training #i feel that i have gotten soooo much better at 'ending on a good note' instead of pushing for another perfect rep #i catch myself more often and quit while we're ahead #anyway this is specifically about my beautiful dogs #i was watching a reel of this persom teaching a 5mo border collie to wrap jumps #and she did it in probably about 60 or 70 reps in one session #and i was thinking that it would take me at least 10 or 15 sessions with rory because i can get maaaaaybe 5 reps of any behaviour #before shes like nah this sucks #but the coolest thing about training brittanies is just #you do your 3 or 4 reps and quit #and you come back a week later and they GET it #its like they need a long time to process it #but they WILL process it in your time off #anyway shes doing a really decent baby freestack in a front position #we practiced it once two weeks ago and then returned to it today and she nailed it #i tried to video but of course it did not work #storal of the mory: i love a dog that constantly humbles me in this specific way #im glad this was a brittany thing and not just a mav thing because i love training in this way

Mav: Guys...I just want to know. I'm not mad, I'm just disappointed.

*silence*

Mav: Smart choice, I was lying. *looks around the circle consisting of Rooster, Bob, Phoenix, Hangman, Payback, and Fanboy. Then he looks up at the break room to stare at Halo, Fritz, Coyote, Omaha, Yale, and Harvard. The other group stares back instead of hiding* So...no one wants to fess up?

Mav: Okay..I see how it is. *turns to look at Rooster* You know anything?

Rooster: Nope, I had no part in this Mav-

Mav: Bullshit, I can see the corner of mustache twitching, it only does that when you're hiding something from me.

Rooster: *checks to see if it's true but realizes he fell for the trick* Shit!

Mav: No part of this, my ass. The longer this takes, the worse the punishment's gonna be. *narrows his eyes at Rooster before whipping his attention to Fanboy* How bout you, Fanboy? Got something to tell me?

Fanboy: *avoids Mav's eyes to look at the others. Phoenix makes a zip-it motion. Hangman mouthes, "you better fucking not."* I don't know anything either, Captain.

Mav: *squints harder* So....I guess Cyclone's office randomly decided to redecorate itself overnight?

Hangman: *because the man can't help himself* Cyclone may have finally decided to spruce up the place.

Mav: *zeroes in on Jake* Really?! He decided to replace every single picture in his office spontaneously...with shirtless pictures of young me!?

Hangman: I mean, you were a hot young twink back then, Pops. Can't really blame the admiral.

*Everyone except Mav facepalms*

Mav: *sighs while muttering you cannot kill your child, you need 12 to make a full dozen* Given the withstanding silence, I'm going to make an educated guess and say it was a group effort. *the group starts to protest* which I do respect. I'm glad to see you each have each other's back. That being said, speak now or forever hold your piece.

*Everyone remains silent, though there are a lot of shifting eyes and suspicious looks traded.*

Mav: Then....you leave me no choice...*pauses dramatically to make eye contact with everyone* you are all banned from my house for an entire week-.

Everyone: WHAT THE FUCK!

*violent banging on a window can be heard from the break room and Mav looks up. Halo and Harvard are both holding up pieces of paper with the words "HELL NO!" & "YOU CAN'T DO THIS US!" angrily scribbled on each respectfully*

Mav: Hush! All of you! You all did something wrong and now you have to deal with the consequences of your actions - No, stop it, all of you, those eyes are not going to work on me.

Phoenix: Sir, hypothetically speaking, *Mav raises his eyebrow* if we were the ones to put up those pictures instead of Admiral Simpson, I would think you would find it funny too.

Mav: Oh, don't worry, Phe, I burst out laughing and couldn't stop for 10 minutes straight when I walked into his office. In fact, I almost passed out from lack of oxygen.

Phoenix: Then why-

Mav: My problem with all of this is that he won't give the photos back.

*stunned silence*

Bob: I-I'm sorry, sir, did you just say-

Mav: I said what I said. Cyclone won't give the photos back.

Rooster: *whispers what the fuckkkkk* Okay, well.... we can steal them back for you...

Mav: Nope, there is no redemption round for any of you. *he cocks his hip and points to everyone, including the people upstairs* Now, thanks to all of you ......I have no choice but to seduce Cyclone to get them back.

....

Daggers.exe has stopped working

Rooster: *faints but Fanboy catches him, but they both collapse on the ground*

Payback: *chokes on his spit and starts up a coughing fit*

Hangman, Phoenix, and Bob: *all have varying glazed looks of horror, with Jake's being the most horrified*

Payback: *in a raspy voice* S-Sir, you must be joking!

Mav: *with the most serious look they had ever seen* Did I stutter?

Hangman: What the hell..there's no reason for you to do so *mutters why would you even* we can sneak into his office after hours -

Mav: And risk more of Cyclone's wrath? I don't think so, Lieutenant.

Fanboy: *still on the ground holding the downed Rooster, lightly tapping his face to wake up* Sir, Why is it so important that you get those photos back?

Mav: Why is it so important? Why is it so important!? I'll tell you why it's so important! It's because there are only a handful of copies of those photos, those being included!

Hangman: *whispers* why do you even have-

Mav: And they were all Christmas gifts to specific people!

Hangman: *proceeds to faint just like Rooster, taking Payback down with him.*

Mav: *continues ranting* I don't know how you kids were able to get your hands on those photos, but now someone is missing their photos and I'm not keen on remaking them anytime soon. So, if you would all excuse me, I have to call my husband and explain to him why I need him to bring me my special change of clothes. *turns on his heel and struts away, missing Phoenix and Bob turning green with horror*

*He gets all the way to the Hanger but is stopped by Hondo and Warlock*

Hondo: Ugh *glances at the group of traumatized aviators, foaming at the mouth* Mav? What was all that about?

Mav: *gets that Look on his face* that, my friend, was the sound of 75 bucks making its way into my pocket.

Next >>>> The Aftermath 😳

#The class of 86' group chat said that Mav was losing his touch and he took that personally #So he decided to convince the kids that he was going to seduce the Admiral and let the word get back to the guys from the traumatized kids #He may be pushing 60s but he can still get it #Were there actually photos of Mav put in Cyclones office? #That's for Mav and Cyclone to know and the rest to find out #pete maverick mitchell #beau cyclone simpson #bradley rooster bradshaw #baby daggers armed with daggers #top gun shitpost #top gun #top gun maverick #storeboughtheadcanons #once again another useless contribution to the fandom

Tuvok’s daughter is two things and two things only: 1) Trans 2) Not tired

#Asil #Tuvok is only capable of creating amab children but where they go from there is anyone's guess #out of this whole family only Sek and T'Pel are cishet #and sometimes T'Pel isn't v_v #Sek is that meme youtube video title that's like 'IN A WORLD...WHERE BEING STRAIGHT IS THE MINORITY...' and it has that girl sobbing #Sek is straight but such an ally that he had his first kiss with a guy (kar) #Asil insists she's a girl since she can talk and thus is referred to as such #when she gets older her entire family go to the temple she was blessed in and Asil goes through the process again #and she's welcomed into the family yet again under the name 'Asil' which her parents gave her again #in my mind it's a sign of great love/acceptance to be given a new name by your family since Vulcans seem to be very much about tradition and #familial pride/loyalty...being named again by family shows that you're still part of the family - still their child #it's a nice and important day v_v Asil gets lots of attention as the symbolic baby (though Varith is already born at this point) #Tuvok is wearing his starfleet uniform bc it's muscle memory but it's sort of funny to imagine him going back bc he'd still be an ensign #and he'd be like...what? 60? 70? #80?? #I like how long Tuvok and T'Pel seem to have waited to have kids...literal decades and then FOUR !! #anyway #[REDACTED] family shenanigans #tuvok #tuvok art #comix #bee doodles #trans vulcans

equilibrium (unbruised, part 3/3)

(E, Sixty/F!Reader, almost 20k bc I’ve lost my mind, we’re wrapping up this angst fest) — complete

The back of the lab is bigger than the previous ones, but far emptier, which as far as Sixty is concerned is its saving grace: less stuff means less time wasted on glorified clean-up duty.

As usual, it’s full of the same uninteresting cabinets and equipment stands, old or defunct biocomponents, the odd bottle—empty, or practically empty—of thirium. The room tapers but rounds a corner into a smaller alcove at the end; display screens and units have been pulled to the edge of the wall by the corner, obscuring it from view, so Sixty crosses the room to peer around the tangle of wiring and computers.

The echo of his footsteps carries on long after he freezes.

Glass lines the far wall, covering recessed cupboards full of android parts. It’s not clear at a glance how many are decent salvage and which are faulty. Sixty’s eyes pass over them without taking any notice.

A giant arm protrudes down from the ceiling, encased in white, breaking into four smaller arms at the end. Two are disconnected, hanging almost limp. The remaining two hold aloft the wrists of an android.

A twisting revulsion hits Sixty, strong enough to knock him a step backwards. Sharp lines in brash monochrome fill his vision, his mind, but Sixty can’t tear his eyes away from that face. Recognition takes no effort. He’s seen that face every day since Talia reactivated him.

The numbers are new, bright against interminable black. 87.

“Connor.” His voice comes out too quiet. “Connor! Get over here.”

Karen Harvey on The Monkees' tour plane, summer of 1967 (photo by Henry Diltz); Peter Tork, Karen, and Justin in January 1968 (photo courtesy of Bridgeman Images); Peter and Karen's son Domin, 1989 ("Tork recently visited Harvey and her son in Amsterdam," per The News Journal in 1989; Peter and Karen in the 2000s.

"Harvey was living in the same apartment building as Tork, at 35 Bedford St., and they cemented a friendship that had started earlier. 'We’re still very, very good friends,' she said. Through a girlfriend at one of the art galleries, Harvey also go to know David Crosby. He and Tork were responsible for getting Harvey to move West. 'He [Crosby] fell in love with my girlfriend and took her back to California. Then Peter got this Monkees thing and moved there. Everybody was trying to get me to come to California, and so I eventually went,' Harvey says. 'She came because I asked her to,' Tork confirmed during a phone call from California. 'I can’t actually say she was my girlfriend. She was my roommate. She came back and forth for a while. I’m an old fan of hers from way, way back. Karen is a wonderful singer.' Although she eventually got her own apartment, Harvey spent much of her time at Tork’s house, under the famous 'Hollywood' sign. 'I was handling a lot of affairs of the house because he [Tork] was working like a slave,' Harvey said. 'TV work is no picnic.' With the increasing amount of money and fame through the Monkees’ TV show, Tork moved to a bigger house (once owned by actor Wally Cox) in Studio City. They also needed more room because Tork, Harvey and Robert Hammer, who directed the horror film 'Don’t Answer the Phone,' had formed a film company called Breakthrough-Influence, whose work included videos for Crosby, Stills and Nash, and Steve Miller. (Hammer is also the father of Harvey’s son, Justin, 22; she has another son, Domin, 11, by a member of Sail-Joia.) 'It was in that [Studio City] house that Lowell George from Little Feat used to rehearse, and that was the house that the Beatles came to,' Harvey said. 'Jimi Hendrix came to both [houses] because he was a real good friend right up until he died.' Of the Beatles, only Ringo Starr and George Harrison dropped by the Studio City home, Tork recalled. 'We went swimming for a while in the pool.' 'I slept through it,' said Harvey of the visit. 'I though they would hang around a little and I was just real slow about it and they left. I was hanging out with every superstar in the book, and they were just average people to me. Peter Tork was very, very generous, and his house was an open house.' To make up for her missing the Beatles, Harvey said, Tork suggested they go to England to visit them. It was New Year’s Eve 1968 [sic]. She remembers that her son, Justin, who was a toddler then, played bongos with Harrison at Apple Records. 'We went to visit George,' Tork said. 'George was doing cuts for the "Wonderwall" album [read more about Peter's banjo contribution to the movie here] at the time. I remember George offering to turn the lights up so Karen could have more light to take pictures.'" - The News Journal, July 16, 1989

“I don’t know that it [fame] affected my ability to have friendships. Basically I don’t think I knew how to be or have a friend beforehand, and I don’t think I learned while I was in that operation [The Monkees]. I mean, I had some good buddies, you know, but that wasn’t the same thing, I didn’t really understand. There was only one person in my life that I could turn to when I was hurting who happened somehow to know what it was, what it took to stop me hurting, and that was a woman named Karen Harvey, who later joined me on the West Coast. And I thought, well, here’s a friend come to join me and this will be a real friend. And we were pretty good friends, I guess, but there wasn’t any that, you know, that — I didn’t know what a friend did in a sense of how, on a day-to-day basis, do you maintain your friendships, do you go out of your way to make sure that things are nice and right and, you know, the kind of work that a friendship takes. You don’t just have a friendship without work. And I didn’t know that. And I’m not so sure I know it now.” - Peter Tork, NPR, June 3, 1983 

“[‘Lady’s Baby’] was about the lady that I was living with at the time, and her son. That’s them [in photo 2], that’s my darling Karen, with whom I am still very good friends all these years later.” - Peter Tork during his My Life In The Monkees & So Much More tour, 2013 (x)

Hi I hope this question makes sense but how would I call out friends use of what might be aave? Im worried about being wrong and it not being aave/sounding like a white knight but I dont want to ignore it.

Hi! And no, you’re fine. If you’re not black, it’s always best to look up terms and listen to what black people say to begin with, that’s the most important thing and if you’ve seen black people talk about a specific term that you might recognize as being aave, simply let your friends know that they shouldn’t really be using such terms in the first place since at this point, viewed as antiblack and micro aggressive because Black people have grown tired of having to talk about this same problem over and over again. Especially when they use such terms directed at Black people. If they continue to use the terms despite being told not to, then you already know what they are.

#I won’t deem everyone who isn’t black a full blown racist for continuing to use aave but it does show that they don’t respect us at all #and that being merely told about how harmful and uncomfortable it is for them to continue on using them while ignoring what black #people are always saying about such topics… well 🗿 #meh #anonymous #tkf replies #what can you do #people still make fun of how black peoples talk but as soon as our terms go viral and turned into stupid internet slang all of a sudden #there are white kids and nbs from the suburbs and across the world running them into the ground and misusing them like hell #and in the same manner #they don’t even realize that they just end up embarrassing themselves in the same way old people try to act ‘hip’ and with the times by #using slang #it’s very… #this is literally how it looks to black people whenever nbs and white folks use it #it’s just very uncomfortable #and it’s even worse when you have them explaining terms and adding their own twists and definitions to terms that they never understood to #begin with #it’s rather unsightly lol #makes me cringe #sometimes I don’t even say shit anymore because I’d see mutuals use aave and I’d go ‘um…. 🧍🏾‍♀️?’ like it’s so… #it always comes back to nbs and whites thinking that the way that black people talk is “’funny’ and when they want to act tough irl or over #the internet they start throwing out all sorts of aave terms like a baby learning it’s first words #the most incomprehensible string of words pulled together in hopes of appearing either ‘cool’ or ‘intimidating’ #it’s… 👎🏾 #funny thing is #the lot of these people don’t even have black friends or talk to black ppl in rl #a lot of them act like they’re afraid of us for some reason and would pull a 60’s white woman crossing the street so fast but be on the #internet talking about some ‘don’t get caught lackin!’ like oh brother #you get how this sounds right 😭!? it’s ridiculous

Keep Off My Grass got taken off of the internet archive and this is officially my destructive arc because that movie is preserved NOWHERE

no dvd release

no NOTHING

is it just me alone with my screen recordings of Twila my beloved and a few youtube videos?

#micky dolenz #keep off my grass #weird movie man #but it’s important to me #not as weird as night of the strangler ft. barley any night and no strangling? #i will never call micky ‘Vance’ who the fuck is ‘Vance’? #but keep off my grass is silly and i miss it! #You Know is my baby boy! #i check back after like ten months and it’s just gone and i’m very sad about that #preserving media is so important to me #i think it all started because of the lost doctor who episodes that they just threw away because the sixties sucked at preserverving things #‘it aired now we don’t need it anymore!’ #this shit continued into well into the 80s and we can kind of thank mike nesmith for helping fix it #unfortunately almost all of my favorite silly little things are from the 60s and 70s and so many things are just lost to time #but because I grew up with all that stuff is probably why i care about preserving it so much #i can’t handle change and things going away #all of my monkees related stuff seems to be getting purged from the internet #damn #i’m sorry i’ll shut up #gimme a break and let me have my comfort little guys

I’ve come to the conclusion in the last few weeks that working full time and studying full time leaves me little to no a) time b) energy to do what really matters the most to me which is to read my silly little stories about the same two (2) goddamn characters falling for each other again and again and it makes me real fucking sad

#should i quit work or should i quit school or should i quit both and become a hermit #rot away on my couch with my ereader #im pulling 60 hour weeks rn with work and school combined and im ready to yeet myself into oblivion #i know it could be worse but jfc im just a baby i shouldnt suffer like this #saturday is my first day off after a 12 day work/school streak #i have the day planned by MINUTE of what im going to read watch from tv and eat for maximum relaxation #and back to work on sunday for that double pay 🤑🤑🤑 #stuff about my sorry excuse of a life

They.keeep trying to bring baby back in characters with similar backstories (granolah) or from another universe (kami and oren) but it's sooooo sooooooo lame.

The twins I can tolerate bc theyre Supposed to be killing machines but Granolah I can't. His story lacks all the bite Baby's has bc his planets population was destroyed under Frieza's orders or interest. The tuffle homeworld was massacred to showcase how violent the Saiyans really were and we don't even know what started it all. Cereal isn't even gone.

Bring him back or dont bc you guys are bad at paying homage to him.
