every time i see fanart of Verity from ROTE im like who the fuck is this white dude, like i pictured him so clearly as dev patel with a crown

The realism of Robby being a little bit of an unintentional misogynist is so, so important to me. Like he is a good boss and a great teacher, he is friends with women and works with women and teaches women and respects women greatly. And yet—it’s Langdon, and then Whitaker, who Robby adopts as his mentees. It’s David, not the girls on the kill list, who Robby prioritizes care for. It’s the dad accused of grooming his daughter who Robby refuses to report, while informing the authorities about the mother drugging him without a second thought. He reams Langdon out for berating Santos, but doesn’t check in on Santos until Langdon refuses to let it go and Robby becomes suspicious of there being an actual problem.

And obviously we are seeing Robby on the worst day of life, and maybe even calling him a “little bit of a misogynist” is a bit too much because he’s not, really. But he does have ingrained biases and he does seem to only be able to fully see himself in and completely empathize with other men. And that is just. So true of even the nicest, kindest, most wonderful and feminist men I know.

You know how canaries were historically brought into coal mines, because if the mine was full of carbon monoxide the canary would die first and the miners would be able to escape before they died too?

I just found the greatest thing.

This is a canary resuscitator.

When the miners notice the canary getting sick with carbon monoxide poisoning, they can close that circular hatch so no more gas gets into the canary cage, and open the valve on that oxygen tank to keep the canary breathing. In other words, they made a spacesuit for birds.

By immediately giving the canary access to clean air, the miners can save it from the poison. The bird lives. To be clear, this is not for economic purposes, this was specifically created because the miners felt bad and wanted to save the bird.

Isn’t that just the perfect demonstration of what humans are like? We started sacrificing small creatures to save ourselves, and then felt bad and spent our valuable resources on saving the critters too. Because yeah the canary was the only way to test for CO, but it’s a living creature too, dammit!

Tofu is thousands of years old but it's the coolest most high modernist food ever. Literally just a block of Food. It's like something people would eat in an Isaac Asimov story but it's real.

i got an idea for a dnd character: A court jester that can control fire but only ever uses this gift to entertain people, heavily inspired by both Dustfinger and The Fool from ROTE, and they will be a multiclass rogue/bard that learnt how to do control fire (druid cantrip) by the fairies of the forest

we do need to revisit the wording of "you can't have your cake and eat it too" because i don't think it clearly enough conveys that it's more that you can't simultaneously retain a cake and also get to consume it (which would render you cakeless). for years i was like But why not....it's my cake....?

it's encouraging to be around people who imagine a bigger life for themselves, whose only desire is to collaborate harmoniously with others, see opportunity instead of obstacle, people who remind you that life is about seeing how far you can go and how much fun you can have...real life enjoyers

Honestly, y'all, I'm begging you. Take the time to think and learn for yourself. Even if it's just something casual like knitting or cooking. Exercise your brain. It's important.

theres bikes around the city you can rent but you have to use an app that needs your drivers license. theres buses that drive right to your destination, but if you dont have change you need the app. you can wash your car here if you sign into the app. you can go to the bathroom here you just have to unlock it with the app that needs your location on. you can order at this restaurant if you scan the code and download the app. im losing my freaking mind

I love reading a book you are slightly too stupid for

I will never get over how weird it feels to have tragic and emotional chapters of your life where you just also still go to work, and the grocery store, and see funny videos online all while feeling such paralyzing fear and heartache

Tom being manipulative and Tom being genuine in his reminiscing the good old days with Shiv are two things that can coincide together. They have always loved each other with hidden motives and that moment is not any different.

logan's dead and all the women lost their illusion of power. the men are looking for MEN to substitute logan, women are our of the question. karl and frank together against gerry and karolina. kendall and roman leaving shiv on the sidelines. kerry isn't useful to anyone anymore. marcia and willa are only safe because of their written on paper relationships to logan and connor.
