one thing i'll say is that not a single bit of macro data was refined this episode

Severance, 2x04

au of the acolyte where the only difference is when master vernestra asked mae if "the name Osha meant anything to [her]"

mae responds, in all seriousness "the Occupational Safety and Health Administration?" while master vernestra goes through the 5 stages of grief.

I don’t care if tc or the mews answer, but what is your opinion on beyblade

I had a dollar store version as a kid that made sparks when it hit rocks which was cool. Other than that all I know is according to the anime Moses split the Red Sea with a beyblade lol and that’s the extent of my knowledge

The Entirety of Tumblr from Tumblr has been Chucked in to the ocean! You're all wet now.

Before there was Moo Deng, there was William.

This little blue hippopotamus, known affectionately as William, has been a fan favorite at The Metropolitan Museum of Art for over a century. Dating back to Egypt’s Middle Kingdom (c. 1961–1878 BCE), William was likely placed in tombs to offer protection in the afterlife.

His bright faience glaze and lotus decorations connect him to the Nile’s waters—but don’t let his charm fool you! Ancient Egyptians knew that hippos were both revered and feared, making William a powerful symbol. He epitomizes the Egyptian craftsmanship of the era.

Take a closer look at William on JSTOR.

slouching like a shrimp in an office chair is just me putting my spine in sport mode

I finished Legends Arceus recently but I have not finished sketching stupid things

(Yes I managed to misspell a five-letter word. I would love to use “english is not my first language” excuse but sometimes I make even more stupid mistakes when I write in my native language. So I think I’m just not that good at using human languages in general)

Playing Legends for the first time years after it was released I of course knew about Volo and his cute little mischiefs. I still ended up in this situation due to my brilliant idea of creating a perfectly round team and a bunch of other bad decisions. Believe me or not this didn’t end well.

While I was prepared for Volo I certainly was not prepared for Kamado and his unique ways of making decisions and solving problems. I was not prepared for the whole exile situation or the last cutscene where this amazing man just gracefully plopped all his responsibilities on Cyllene’s shoulders. The woman is two piplup tall and probably one mishap away from murdering someone, give her a break.

I’m a little sad now because it’s time to say goodbye to my morning routine of sketching whatever questionable ideas visited my head while playing.

But if you woke up today thinking “wish there was a children’s book illustrator somewhere on the other end of the world with half an hour to spare so I can ask them to sketch my favorite PLA character or pokemon” then hi hello i’m here welcome to my ask box. Apart from PLA i still have some residual knowledge of gen 2, 4, 6 and 8 (I’m also allergic to odd numbers apparently)

told this to my roommate and she responded with "what is the force if not a rat" with a disapproving vibe strong enough to kill a man, so now I AM going to elaborate: why the force and a rat are basically the same thing: Is hard to see? ✅ Surrounds all living things? ✅ Lends itself to extremes? ✅ Motivated by cheese? Inconclusive but most likely i will die on this hill.

torbin from the acolyte looks like linguini from ratatouille. no, i will not elaborate, nor will I take criticism.
