both mikksy and monty raising their hands up for the interference call after lindhom bowled matty over

and both of them skating over to help matthew up nicely but hes being a brat about is forever in my heart

but also mikkola immediately going into guard dog mode and waving his stick at any b that dares to get any closer to matthew so that he stays guarding the front while monty stays guarding the back meanwhile benny just skates to guard the flank IS THE ICING ON THE CAKE YOU ARE ACTING LIKE YOUR DEAR PRISSY PRINCESS NARROWLY ESCAPED AN ASSASSINATION ATTEMPT (this is basically what happened)

this is perfection its art

Fun little math trick I find really helpful: the ratio of a mile to a kilometer is within 1% of the Golden Ratio. That means that if you have a good memory for Fibonacci numbers (1 2 3 5 8 13 21 34 55 89) you can convert pretty accurately by taking consecutive Fibonacci numbers.

For example, 89 kilometers is really close to 55 miles (55.3). Or, say you need to convert 26 miles to kilometers: 26 can be written as 21 plus 5, so taking the next Fibonacci number up gives 34 and 8, meaning it should be around 42 kilometers. Sure enough, it's 41.8 km!

i need several moments, math like this scares me

Not gonna lie, as much as I want to be helpful and comprehensible, I am very proud of provoking that reaction image.

I took a jaunt around europe and used this trick constantly

“I’ll just rest my eyes” is the biggest lie you’re going straight to snorkmimimi land

“I’m going to sleep” is the biggest lie I’m going to stare at my ceiling for the next three hours

I wish there were different words for the different types of forgetting because  when I say I forgot something, I don’t mean “I forgot we had plans on Friday.” I almost always mean “I forgot today was Friday.” I know my friend’s birthday is on March 20th, but I won’t wish her happy birthday on time because I won’t know it’s March 20th on March 20th. My forgetfulness has nothing to do with not caring about/remembering events and everything to do with my inability to keep up with the passage of time.

My most common one is being 100% certain I did the thing already because the memory of doing it and the memory of intending to do it are the same mental images.

where is that renaissance painting with those two fellers and a giant fucking random skull on the floor that looks like it was accidentally stretched out in photoshop

somebody please explain

Someone once told me it’s like that because it was designed to be hung in a stairwell so the skull pops out as you walk past.

…I guess it works but you have to be at a pretty sharp angle

There was a whole trend at one point where artists would include something in their paintings (usually a skull, for whatever reason) that’s super distorted in just the right way so that it looks normal if you hold the painting up to a convex/concave mirror. I have absolutely no idea why. But I think that’s what’s going on here.

In case anyone’s curious, here’s what it looks like when you walk past it irl:

It does have a 3D effect to it! It’s pretty neat, guess it would be even more impressive to people from the 14th century.

honestly, people just looking at the skull are missing the real deal here

You can read any implied text you see in this thing, even the book, that’s how detailed it is. Look at the painting on those letters!

jesus christ you’re just showing off now, Hans!

HANS OH MY GOD

anyway, the skull apparently had some meaning about the transcendence of death, you can only see it clearly when you can’t see the world clearly and vice versa, but man, I’m all about the detail in this guy’s shit

I was reading ASOIAF the other day and just realised that all of Sansa’s suitors are blondes. Joffery has blonde hair, cause he is really a Lannister, we don’t know what Willa’s Tyrell looks like, most fanart of him depict him as a brunette like Loras and Margery, but it would be fun if it was revealed that he was a blonde. Tyrion, again, blonde because he is Lannister and finally Harry Harding, another blonde man. Jon (if he is the final suitor, fingers crossed) is the only one with dark hair.

Hah, it's hilarious to imagine that Willas Tyrell might have taken after silver-blonde Alerie in his coloring, unlike his sumptuously brown-haired siblings who took after Mace! Your mind, anon!!

The world: *consistently pushing light-haired suitors at Sansa*

Sansa: *consistently mooning over the skinny dark-haired teenagers who are good with swords and brave in a fight and prone to dramatic facial injuries*

Gee, I wonder what the author is building toward? :)

it’s funny because yes, you CAN disable right click save, but it takes like an extra two seconds to get around it because of how images are displayed on websites. (technically you could also just screenshot but this gets you a real jpg)

for example, instagram has disabled right click save. here I am trying to save a picture of this girl with a pumpkin sweater, but I am thwarted by the lack of right click save!

to get around it, right click and go to “inspect” or “inspect element” (it’s called different things depending on what computer you’re using)

shimmy around the webpage code until you find the “src” bit. It will helpfully tell you when you’ve found it because the image, and only the image, will light up as if you selected it.

that source is the link to where the image is hosted on the website. click the link.

find the actual hosted image. right click on that.

check and mate.
