Ma'am, please. That's not me.

Malewife?

truly can’t get over how much everybody dunked on tumblr for banning porn and yet in 2022 this is the last bastion of social media sites where you are allowed to say tits without being blasted into space

Kill Kill Kill Kill Kill Kill it feels good to be on top

Damn this is such a good song let me play it 78 times an hour until i hate it

"invest in your future" "build your career" "make professional connections" "grind" 🤢

how about

“run through wheat fields” “kiss loved ones often” “eat fruit” “bask in the sun”

So while this whole “who is worst Chris? Chris Pratt” stuff is going on. I think it’s also important to talk about Best Chris. And it’s Chris Eccleston.

Reblogging and adding these tags because I didn't know that and it makes the "lots of planets have a north" scene hit different!

You can carbon date this post by its shade of blue

all these fucking fools on my dashboard talk about how they love bats but only show pictures of fruit bats fuck you start posting pictures of all bats i can’t stand this fucking bat erasure

look at him he’s not your conventionally attractive bat but he deserves just as much love

Yo, you want some adorable non-fruit bats? Gotcha covered, pals!

Long Eared Bat, huge ears and an adorable face!

Mexican Free Tailed Bat, named for the fact that their uropatagium (back leg membrane) doesn’t cover their tail, leaving them with a teeny mouse-like tail. 

Gould’s Wattled Bat, they got some pearly white sharp teeth, but they tell great jokes and always laugh at yours too. 

“HAHAHAHAHA!”

Hoary Bat, AKA the bat that looks like they’re covered in powdered sugar.

Bulldog Bat, a bulldog… with wings <3 

Vampire Bat, often seen as creepy, but they’re actually really cute. Also fun fact, vampire bats live in a social structure where able-bodied bats go out and feed and then share part of their meal with old/weak/sick members who cannot forage themselves. No survival of the fittest here, every bat helps every bat out <3 

And lastly, the Painted Bat, and yes, those are its actual colors. Can’t get any more Halloween than that <3 

@definitely-a-living-human bat!

yall are IGNORING hammerhead bat

Honduran white bats are 🥰

I'm gonna be bold here and say. Boyfriend is just a vibe. You don't have to be a boy to be a boyfriend.

Same with girlfriend. It's just vibe related. You don't have to be a girl to be someone's girlfriend.

Person A: hey why do you look so tired and have bite marks all over your neck?

Person B, who got fucked within an inch of their life the night before and is about to invent vampires: oh haven’t you heard?

#and that mans name was lord byron

You made it better

No, it was John Polidori. Byron wrecked him thoroughly the night before. Facts only.

Thank you for your correction. There can only be facts in this gothic dragging

*snorts*

@therebewhaleshere has the spirit of the thing perfectly nailed

What if silence is in fact a sound, but because its a universal sound we just adapted to it and dont notice it anymore

I actually just wrote a paper on this!!

The short of it is, yes, that's exactly what happens. There's no such thing as pure silence outside of a vacuum (and inside a vacuum you'd be dead). So basically your ears are constantly adapting to the noise threshold of your surroundings and slowly ignoring it. If you were in a perfectly silent room (anechoic chambers are cool!) you would actually start to hear the sound of existing!

In film class we learned that you need to record the silence in a room for at least two minutes or so and save it before you start shooting there. This is called "roomtone" and is done so you can put it into every bit of artificial silence later- if your editor decides it's best to cut the sound so there will be a longer gap between lines of dialogue, for instance, the artificial silence in between will sound weird to the viewers and break their immersion, because it isn't the silence of that room as they're been hearing it so far.

Room tone is also useful to overlay if you need to re-record any lines later or that kind of stuff, I think, but. I didn't listen THAT much in film class

This is pretty much why active noise cancelling works too!

I recall reading about a performance of some kind whose first "sound" involved a sudden, heavy, oppressive silence, and they arranged that by artificially creating a noisy roomtone---before the performance started, before people were coming into their seats even, the speakers were already outputting a soundscape of white noise, electronic hums, air vent noises, et cetera, so when the audience was all seated and the performance started, the sudden cutoff of all the existing noise made a major contrast that got everyone's attention without so much as a sound.

*missing the charging port on my phone* don’t think about it don’t think about it don’t think about it
