I forget who originally said it, but there’s a quote about “Great science fiction isn’t predicting the automobile, it’s predicting the traffic jam”

I’ve slept 3hrs (if I’m lucky)… if I take my Vyvanse now will I kneel over and die? Or should I wait another 10 minutes???

To continue the saga, my Vyvanse takes 40min give or take to kick in

I’ve got class in an hr.

quite literally the only thing i know about him is that he should get more hours of sleep

semiaquatic secret agent

Taste closed

Inspector, if you can’t find the murderer I suggest wrapping this up (yea)

i would watch an entire show of this

Ma, IT’S BACK

You can’t read Miranda Rights to a corpse

random street interviewer, not recognising Tim or Bernard:

Interviewer (I): Hi! Were with xxxxx do you have time to answer some questions? We’re doing a survey on the average Gothamite’s clothing and knowledge of pop culture.

Tim (T): *so used to doing official interviews he doesn’t even question it and agrees, Bernard (B) thinks its funny so also agrees*

T: How’s that going for you?

I: I’ve dodged 3 knives already. Your the 4th pair we’ve spoken to

T&B: Yeah that tracks

I: SO, the Waynes, who’s your fav?

T: *stiffling laughter as it truly dawns on him the interviewer has no idea* Cass.

I: The one who doesn’t talk?

T: yep.

I: Oh, ok. Because shes hot?

T: Nope.

I: Uhm. Ok. And you? *shoves mic at Bernard*

B: *with a quick, sappy grin sent Tim’s way* Tim.

I: Oh, cool! The CEO?

B:Yep

I: Why?

B: Cos he’s hot.

T: *bright red* hmm.

I: Oh! Cool! Are the two of you a couple?

T&B: 8Shares a look, as theyre not neccessarily out but not neccessarily in the closet either, fianlly coming to a silent decision,* “Yeah.”

I: Oh great! Is TIm you’re celebirty crush, then?

B: *grinning mischevisoulsy* you could say that.

I: Well, your clothes! Could you tell me where you got them? *looks to Tim*

T: Yep so this shirt… *taps the baggy Tshirt* a Paramore consert a while ago, and the undershirt is from… somewhere i forgot. Jeans are… pinched from a friend I think, *indicates the baggy jeans* this hoodie *the Red hoodie wrapped around his waist* Idk. where did you get this, love? *turns to Bernard*

B: honestly, i’ve forgotten. Anyways, i got this from… *continues, similarly, his shirt is Tim’s*

I: Oh great thanks! And what about your skateboards? Do you two frequently go skating? Or is Gotham too dangerous?

T: Oh no, i skate all the time. You get used to just dodging rogues at some point, Anyways, the hero stickers get added each time a new one i like comes on the scene.

I: Nods

B: I like to skate! But i normally just go with Tim.

I: well thats all great, thanks for your time!

T: No prob.

The video gets posted online that night. The news that the practically unrecognisable Skater Star and CEO Tim Drake is queer goes viral. clips of bernard saying Tim is his fav wayne, and that the 2 are together gets clipped and edited and reposted consitantly for the next couple weeks, and Tim’s phone blows up from the Wayne gc, with a mix of complaints (that Cass is his fav and not them) and encouragements from his coming out. WE tries to get him to do a press conference regarding his sexuality. Tim takes a selfie at pride with bernard and a bi flag and posts it to all his Tim Drake accounts instead.

Current mood

mood. and alternatively: 

I raise you:

The creator of Phineas and Ferb sorting his M&Ms on tiktok bc that's just what he does. as a middle aged man.

its tagged Stimming and ADHD. "i dont know why [i sorted the M&Ms]" sure you didnt. Autistic ADHD man made a show of autistic ADHD characters.

Peer reviewed ADHD

More peer reviewed autism. Joseph Fink said similar about people talking about Carlos from WTNV, yesterday on his BlueSky, that the character has a lot of his traits and people kept calling Carlos autistic coded so that started telling him something.

literally nothing funnier than a newly born aquatic mammal realizing they've been cursed to live in water

Wet beast

HE LOOKS SO SAD 😭

Y'all need to stop saying shit like “songs with the same bpm”

Beats per minute is a unit. The word you’re looking for is tempo.

If two songs have the same tempo, their bpm are equivalent.

You wouldn’t say two people of the same height have “the same inches.” You would say height. So stop saying two songs have “the same bpm” when you can just say tempo

I’m an assistant band director don’t argue with me

I have a music degree and taught for over a decade. You can say BPM or tempo it’s basically all the same. Don’t let the classical music snobs get you down

Oh no, I made a post voicing a pet peeve of mine and suddenly I’m a “classical music snob” even though I’ve been playing baroque flute for over a decade professionally…

Yeah I mean… Well there it is

I’m now going to refer to things that are the same height as having the same inches. I like that.

Tempo indications (either in-score or in reference/conversation) are often not as specific as bpm. You can technically say that two songs are the same tempo, for example, Allegretto vivace (fairly brisk and lively), without their bpms matching exactly, or without their having consistent bpms (plenty of songs do speed up and slow down). If you’re specifying bpm, you probably have a reason to; you might be trying to make a mashup, where it’d be inconvenient if not disastrous to combine two songs with equivalent tempi but slightly different bpms.

Analogically, if two people are the “same height”, they might be level to the naked eye or to a relatively well-calibrated measuring instrument, and they can for example both be pallbearers at the same funeral, but you’d probably want to know how many millimeters tall each one was if they were both going to, say, stand on a level surface under the surprise shot of a deadly horizontal laser (and we might try to stand behind the one with the extra 2mm).

I appreciate not only that you explained this in a way that I, a non musical fool, can understand, but also your incredibly gratuitous and yet desperately needed use of deadly horizontal lasers.

I love that the flute snob is like “oh NOW I’m a SNOB” yeah it happens. The flute does it. Sucks the common sense right out of your brain. At least it’s not the piccolo, though.

“Hey, I like this color and it looks great on me!” you say one day.

Six years later you open your closet and nearly every shirt you own is the same shade of rusty red-orange. Help.

SHIT. SHIT SHIT SHIT.

I’VE BEEN MASC VELMA THIS ENTIRE TIME AND I DIDN’T EVEN KNOW

Nice cosplay

THESE WERE JUST THE CLOTHES I WAS WEARING WHEN I MADE THIS POST

FINISHED MY LIST OF PROMPTS, GUYS

If anyone uses these, please feel free to @ me, I’d love to see how people interpret them. I guess you could also just use a tag. #piddermermay I guess? Idk. I’ve never done anything like this before.

me: reblogs anything

the green bar that pops up telling me I reblogged something:

can i jsut say… isnt it insane that polar bears go underground like imagine just walking along with a shovel and u start digging a hole and a bear is in there

THEYRE JUST? THERE…. IN THE SNOW

I know it‘s supposed to be scary that there is apex predators just potentially sleeping under the surface of the snow like some kind of greek mythology monster but it just makes me laugh bc them living in holes just means polar bears just have little houses and look out of their little windows like:
