As a 90β€²s kid, it blows my mindΒ that origami youtube videos exist. You can look up any model and watch a pair of manicured hands assemble the thing in real time, in full color, in 3D, with cheerful flute music in the background. When I was little, you had a library book with no words and these esoteric little dotted lines and arrows and it was just you, your hands, your paper, and the cruel, uncaring eyes of God.

cursed: the spn fandom and how it used to add a gif to every single post

ultra cursed: bloggers who add gifs from community or glee or something to serious social justice posts explaining the idea of the post in the form of a sitcom joke that’s you can nearly always tell has been watered down to cater to a predominantly white audience and not to offend any right wing viewers

every time i fuck up plugging in the USB to charge my iphone and scratch it against the underside of the phone i think about that scene at the start of sherlock where sherlock assumes that john watson’s sister is an alcoholic because of the scratches around the charging port of the iphone she gave to him as a gift and i think to myselfΒ β€œman sherlock is a fucking idiot”

β€œSamuel Vimes dreamed about Clues. He had a jaundiced view of Clues. He instinctively distrusted them. They got in the way. And he distrusted the kind of person who’d take one look at another man and say in a lordly voice to his companion, β€œAh, my dear sir, I can tell you nothing except that he is a left-handed stonemason who has spent some years in the merchant navy and has recently fallen on hard times,” and then unroll a lot of supercilious commentary about calluses and stance and the state of a man’s boots, when exactly the same comments could apply to a man who was wearing his old clothes because he’d been doing a spot of home bricklaying for a new barbecue pit, and had been tattooed once when he was drunk and seventeen* and in fact got seasick on a wet pavement. What arrogance! What an insult to the rich and chaotic variety of the human experience!” (Terry Pratchett, Feet of Clay)

tech companies building webcams that don’t function in indoor lighting is like 70% of why capitalism needs over throwing. u need to cam someone bitch? sure thing just carry ur laptop out to the park in the middle of the day! like have you seen a fucking human being do that, just taking a skype call in broad daylight? no. phone cameras are what i take outside. webcams should work indoors bitch. indoors where the fucking computer goes. i shouldn’t need to buy 17 lamps for basic expected functionality in twenty fucking seventeen

β€œyeah but the doctor can’t be asexual or aromantic because-”

I literally do not care

leaving issues of the canonicity of looms aside if you bring up susan as β€˜evidence’ of heterosexuality i will beat you round the head with evidence of people outside fertile heterosexual relationships having children because jfc HUMANS can mange it so i’m pretty sure timelords can (x)

Timelords have mastered time and space travel and used to regularly hop between parallel universes and you’re telling me they didn’t have ways of having children that didn’t involve sex?
