There is a lot about what is going on here that I don’t understand. But I am participating anyway.

"Do the stars gaze back?" is from Stardust by Neil Gaiman (which, for the record, is one of the few times I've liked the movie better than the book. Probably because I watched the movie first).

"There is a lot about what is going on here that I don’t understand. But I am participating anyway." 3, Network Effect, The Murderbot Diaries.

Catalogercas because Castiel from Supernatural is my favorite character and I have Masters Degree in Library Science, and I enjoy cataloging and adding metadata to things.

Currently obsessed with Jamie Tartt and Roy Kent/Jamie Tartt, Good Omens and Crowley/Aziraphale. I need s3 of Good Omens immediately.

You are welcome to send me fanfic prompts for fandoms I am in/ships I ship, but I make zero guarantees about filling them.

So you're new to tumblr or somehow haven't heard about why Nov 5 is a tumblr holiday

Might just be the depression talking but i feel the feedback and length of time of a challenge changes how rewarding it feels. Most games are designed to peak in difficulty and reward the player around the same time. Life doesn't work like that. Retail doesn't get harder throughout the day and then rewards you with cash at the end. You struggle daily for 1-2 weeks then get sent a check.

Sometimes it is an easy pay period other times its incredibly difficult, but regardless you get rewarded the same. Thus why people may feel better about overcoming video game challenges while not feeling even a fraction of that reward by doing real life tasks.

If confetti rained down and victory music played when I fucking cleaned my room you bet I'd be way more consistent with it.

If confetti rained down when I cleaned my room, I feel like that might negatively impact my desire to clean my room. Could we substitute the confetti with something else?

no and every time you clean the confetti another confetti charge goes off

One must imagine Sisyphus cleaning his room

Tumblr is where girls go to be alone with other girls who are being alone and that's why I've been using this site for so long

Hardison grifting: overly-confident criminal. assertive FBI agent. heartthrob classical musician.

Nathan Ford grifting: goddamn piece of shit oily slimy scumbag ambulance-chaser untrustworthy con artist with a stupid fucking voice and a silly hat

the show is not doing Nate any favors in the likeability or attractiveness departments here

(Bonus mention: Parker grifting: autism creature)

No wait. I have a graph for this

Every single one of Nate's griftsona's can fit on this. There is variety!!! Just. Very little

quick question why does your cat command you to print something on the printer

Avatar

he really likes to watch the printer print. It seems like he thinks there’s some kind of creature in there that I have the mysterious power to summon that he can then hunt for sport?

he sticks his entire arm inside the printer and breaks it if I don’t put some kind of physical burrier between him and the printer but like he purrs so loud when it starts printing and will beg harder for people to print things than he will for treats.

he just loves hunting the printer so much. he even tried to climb inside the place the paper comes out of the printer when he was a kitten.

No matter where he is in the apartment if the printer makes a noise he sprints full speed. He also knows which button to press to get the printer to print like the ink levels info and alignment sheet, so you have to make sure it’s off or locked up or he will print nonstop himself and then attack the printer and jam it.

is it inconvenient that my cat is obsessed with the printer? yes, but damn if it’s not also adorable.

I don’t actually have a ton of photos of him sticking his whole arm in there though because stopping him from jamming the printer is usually a task that involves all of my arms and also all of my roommates arms.

Let’s give it up for 500 notes.

got a machine for cutting stickers that instills the same curiosity and hunters deadly instinct. Here he is telling me the sticker cutting machine belongs to him actually. You can’t tell but he’s purring maximum loud in this photo
