unfortunately no eclipse photography can ever outdo the waffle house one from 2017
i don't even know who took this pic. the only person who claims to know the photographer was this person who uploaded it to reddit without naming them. it just adds to the mystery of it

This isnt a joke my favorite piece of writing advice that I’ve ever seen is someone that said if you were stuck with a fic and couldn’t figure out why or what was wrong, your problem is actually usually about ten sentences back. Maybe there was something wonky about the tone or the dialogue or you added something that didn’t fit but it’s usually ten sentences back. And every single time I get stuck in a fic I count back ten sentences and it’s always fucking there
If you write yourself into a corner, back out of the corner.
If necessary, make a three-point turn and go back the way you came…

Beep boop! I look for accidental haiku posts. Sometimes I mess up.
the last line hit me like a fuckin sledgehammer
I blazed this post yesterday as a kind of "event" for one of Tumblr's unofficial "holidays", and right now it's a little bit past the halfway point in the campaign (it was approved later than I expected).
I have to say it's not doing badly, and has been an interesting experience to follow!
Is this literally what it is? It’s just It’s Gonna Be May but we’re riffing on his hair? Please, I’m so gullible. This is the real thing that it is, right?
Yup! It went from captioned screenshots or gifs of Justin Timberlake from the music video making fun of his pronunciation of "me" as "may" (+/- the "roses are red" type poetry), that specifically say "It's Gonna Be May",
To unrelated (and often uncaptioned) pictures of Justin from any old thing/era, that people understood as "it's gonna be May",
To an obscure reference to his "ramen noodle hair" era vis-a-vis a block of uncooked ramen that takes the place of the picture of Justin!
So now, during the last week of April when you see:
Roses are red,
April is grey,
But in a few days,
Then you understand via the chain of logic that "uncooked ramen noodles" = unrelated photo of Justin Timberlake = "it's gonna be May"!
This is one of my favorite memes because it's so many levels iterated from the original. :3
Anyway here's another:
it's like the dodge ball now representing Apollos gift of prophecy to random Tumblr posts. we're starting to speak in hieroglyphics
I am apparently working on becoming a local cryptid at the store. Talents include:
That is the nicest thing anyone has ever said to me
Cheesewitching. I respect it.
Someone make a cute comic or short story about the Cheese Witch.
BEE DAGGER !!
@theshitpostcalligrapher perfect for your Necrobeemicon!!!
okay so these babies are customs which mean they start at two hundo (which is like 250ish for me in canadian dollars), which is VERY reasonable for a custom piece.
but right now my choices between big new year investments are between new weaponry OR initial setup investments to get myself a pet snake. unless some rando millionaires follow me and throw a bunch of cash my way on the kofi (do NOT feel pressured to do this, this is a pipe dream), the snake’ll probably win out
Plus, idk how easily they could ship what is essentially a custom weapon internationally if at all.

fuck it, i never ever do those “reblog for X, this one really works!” posts, but this one doesn’t have any of that BS, this is just straight up wishing us good things; and then the comment doesn’t even say any of that either. Zero claims on this post, all positive vibes
May you end this week feeling ever more certain of a future you’ll love
We're on a new platform with a totally different audience...we have to prove ourselves all over again...convince a totally new group of people to think we're funny and worth your attention....so allow me to drop some of my "A" material....the funniest thing I got.......here goes....... jeef berky
Y'all, the world is sleeping on what NASA just pulled off with Voyager 1
The probe has been sending gibberish science data back to Earth, and scientists feared it was just the probe finally dying. You know, after working for 50 GODDAMN YEARS and LEAVING THE GODDAMN SOLAR SYSTEM and STILL CHURNING OUT GODDAMN DATA.
So they analyzed the gibberish and realized that in it was a total readout of EVERYTHING ON THE PROBE. Data, the programming, hardware specs and status, everything. They realized that one of the chips was malfunctioning.
So what do you do when your probe is 22 Billion km away and needs a fix? Why, you just REPROGRAM THAT ENTIRE GODDAMN THING. Told it to avoid the bad chip, store the data elsewhere.
Sent the new code on April 18th. Got a response on April 20th - yeah, it's so far away that it took that long just to transmit.
And the probe is working again.
From a programmer's perspective, that may be the most fucking impressive thing I have ever heard.
i’m
it’s the same, it’s just the same picture over and over i stg
Honey its NOT

the best time to grieve is when it spites the people who tell you not to
[ID: a 4-panel comic in medieval manuscript style of a person in blue sitting on a basket. /In 1 a person off-panel says: "What are you doing over there?" /2: That person comes on panel wearing yellow and helps Blue hold down the basket. Blue: "Trying to push down my grief about my illness" Yellow: "Have you tried platitudes?" /3: Blue yells at the basket: "'It could be worse!'" /4: A dragon pushes up the lid of the basket to yell: "It could be better" /end ID]
Your honor in my defense I am simply a little rascal
