Really not sure they like me tbh, they could just be doing this to be nice
I met someone called Jesus who used Jesus/Christ/Christself pronouns.
a lot of older norms for internet and site etiquette are shit but you know what was good that we need to bring back? lurking. you need to lurk moar
This is an excellent response
hang onto this in case leopards eat her face, because she's a Black woman, and Republicans aren't exactly known to be fans of rap music.
he thinks he's being so smooth with his little face on my leg. i SEE you, villain
I need him like a fish needs water...
I think movies need more sex and i also think that actors need to be uglier and less in shape

I always forget that gas giants are, you know, made of gas, and not just smooth plastic color. The atmosphere is full of clouds, and the entire planet is atmosphere!
OP is not actually Cassini's last picture. That is artwork that NASA put out years before Cassini's Grand Finale. It's gorgeous and likely a fairly accurate depiction of what Saturn looks like up close. But it is not Cassini's last image.
This is actually Cassini's final image, taken one day before it burned up in Saturn's atmosphere.
This is looking down at Saturn, and it's being illuminated by Saturn's rings which reflect sunlight down onto the "surface" of Saturn.
Here is the "natural colour" edit of this image (based on how we've observed Saturn to look from Earth)
This was taken during Cassini's descent, and is looking at the spot where Cassini would soon enter the atmosphere and burn up. Saturn has a layer of haze that obscures much of the storms and cloud activity from view in visible light (Jupiter doesn't have that haze so that's why we can see the storms), but at the same time Cassini took an image in the infrared spectrum as it descended:
So this is part of the same image, but in infrared so you can see the storms. The oval on this image marks where Cassini later entered Saturn's atmosphere and completed its 13-year mission.
So while the art in OP is of Saturn and Cassini, and possibly is a realistic rendition of Cassini's final views, that is not the view that Cassini sent back to us.
Now, here is Cassini's final full mosaic of Saturn, titled A Farewell to Saturn
I like to view this image as Cassini's true last image, the last image that was taken not as part of its end, but as an end to its long mission.
Anyway, Cassini and its Grand Finale has a lot of personal importance to me, so here are some of my favourite images taken by Cassini
"The Day the Earth Smiled"
"With the sun's powerful and potentially damaging rays eclipsed by Saturn itself, Cassini's onboard cameras were able to take advantage of this unique viewing geometry."
"Translucent Arcs"
"A Song of Ice and Light"
"Saturn’s moon Enceladus drifts before the rings and the tiny moon Pandora in this view that NASA’s Cassini spacecraft captured on Nov. 1, 2009. The entire scene is backlit by the Sun, providing striking illumination for the icy particles that make up both the rings and the jets emanating from the south pole of Enceladus, which is about 314 miles (505 km) across."
"Reflection of Sunlight off Titan Lake"
"This image shows the first flash of sunlight reflected off a hydrocarbon lake on Saturn's moon Titan. The glint off a mirror-like surface is known as a specular reflection. This kind of glint was detected by the visual and infrared mapping spectrometer (VIMS) on NASA's Cassini spacecraft on July 8, 2009. It confirmed the presence of liquid in the moon's northern hemisphere, where lakes are more numerous and larger than those in the southern hemisphere."
"Spotting Saturn's Northern Storm"
"NASA's Cassini spacecraft captures a composite near-true-color view of the huge storm churning through the atmosphere in Saturn's northern hemisphere.
This storm is the largest and most intense observed on Saturn by NASA's Voyager or Cassini spacecraft. The storm is still active. As scientists have tracked this storm over several months, they have found it covers 500 times the area of the biggest of the southern hemisphere storms observed earlier in the Cassini mission (see PIA06197 and PIA12576). The shadow cast by Saturn's rings has a strong seasonal effect, and it is possible that the switch to powerful storms now being located in the northern hemisphere is related to the change of seasons after the planet's August 2009 equinox."
we’ve finally created The Torment Nexus from classic novel “Dont Create The Torment Nexus”!
We've named it after the author of Don't Create the Torment Nexus
local mourning dove goes viral for show-stopping performance in may 19th dawn chorus. when asked for comment, the rising star simply said “hhhrrroooOOOOO hooooo hoo. hooooo”
hey. they’re what??
hi those are my tags yeah i saw some videos about it, theyre all like “remember this sound? the birds you would always hear in your childhood in the early 2000s? you dont hear it anymore bc these birds went extinct in 2020…. </3” and everyones always commenting like OMG NO THATS SO SAD THIS SOUND IS SO NOSTALGIC!!! like what do you mean i hear them all the time…
anyways heres 3 of them on my porch yesterday
so sad that mourning doves are extinct now. sometimes i can still hear them hoo hoo hooing
this is awesome
