Ik a lot of ppl talk about how Nimona is Ballister’s daughter and I’m sure that’s probably something from the comics which I haven’t read but as an aromantic their dynamic as strong friends healed my heart. They’re each others safe space they care for each other so deeply. They constantly constantly trust each other in the worse situation they always always have each other’s back.
This moment fucking HIT ME. They’re home they’re safe they’re with each other the home is where the heart is because THEY’RE TOGETHER. Like I don’t think you understand as someone who’s most “intimate” (as a broad term) where never romantic and always platonic HOW MUCH THE REPRESENTATION OF A STRONG HEALTHY PLATONIC RELATIONSHIPS IS SOMETHING SO REVOLUTIONARY TO ME
The more it goes on the less he sees her as just a kid or a little girl that’s his best friend his side kick and she’ll always have his back fuck!!!!!!! HE JUMPS OF A BALCONY BECAUSE HE KNOWS SHELL CATCH HIM. THEY TELL EACH OTHER HOW THEY FEEL THEYRE EACH OTHERS MOST TRUSTED PERSON.
HE SAVES HER
AND SHE SAVES HIM. She looks at HIM before doing what she does because SHE WANTS HIM TO BE HAPPY. AS MUCH AS HE DOES FOR HER.
THE LOOK OF PURE JOY WJEN HE SEES HER. THE USE OF A FRAME THATS USUALLY USED IN A ROMANTIC CONTEXT REFRAMED AS A FRIEND HAPPY TO SEE HIS FRIEND SAFE AND SOUND. THE WAY HE INCORPORATES WHAT SHE THOUGHT HIM INTO HIS LIFE
WHAT MORE CANI SAY. I genuinely have no way to put into words the way THIS MOVIE HIT ME HARD. Even the relationship between Ballister and Ambriosius broke the idea of strictly romantic or platonic relationships in a way I can’t explain. God this movie is amazing please please watch it
Essentially
Yes BUT. This specific desk is in a library so a parent that needs to use a library computer can do their work and have a little ease in managing their kiddo. In a library environment this is less productivity culture bullshit and more 'oh this is a fantastic solution to a difficult situation library staff see 8 times a day'. Is it still productivity culture bullshit because this parent may not have affordable childcare or internet available to them? Yes. Am I glad it exists in a library environment to fill a demonstrated need? Hell yeah.
and keeps library staff from having to act as babysitters...
dear GOD we could use a couple of these. we keep crayons and coloring books on hand for the ones old enough for that, but the wee ones squirming and fussing in laps while the parents are fighting with job applications or convincing gmail’s current 2-step verification to let them in so they can print off a return label (both of which i have seen)? this would be SO NICE.
library groups have been loving this & are spreading the word & actively trying to purchase/create similar things in different systems
'can i copy your homework?'
'yeah just don't make it obvious'
ID: a comparison betwen the mobile twitter and new tumblr menu layouts. They look almost exactly the same with the twitter/tumblr logo at the top followed by: home, explore, notifications/activity, and messages. After that the exact menu options are different but still similar. End ID
'the human body is perfect god doesnt make mistakes' what about wisdom teeth then. huh. gonna let those bastards grow in and fuck up your jaw for god. didnt think so
also the exploding appendix
there's an entire book about all the ways the human body is fucked up, but the highlights I remember are:
-The blood vessels for our rods and cones in our eyes don't run behind them but rather in front of them. It's like putting the power cables *over* a camera's lens
-the nasal sinus cavities fucked up during evolution. when our skulls shortened, we went from having a straight shot from one end to the other to having basically a basin which can collect mucus, which then has the actual exit for the chamber at the top of it. this normally isn't a problem bc cillia can work viscous mucus up it, but when we get sick and produce super watery mucus, it no longer works, which is why our noses get stuffed up.
the book is called Human Errors: A Panorama of Our Glitches, from Pointless Bones to Broken Genes. I recommend it.
Most mammals can’t get scurvy. They make their own Vitamin C. But in primates, the gene to make it is broken. Normally, when an important gene breaks, the organism dies and has no surviving descendants, but when it broke a few million years ago, our ancestors were living in a lush climate with lots of fruit and survived the failure just fine.
Then humans invented fire and clothing, and moved to colder climates where fresh food was only available part of the year, and scurvy was born.
And our reproduction, oh heavens. There are SO MANY WAYS that human reproduction is fucked up that simply DO NOT APPLY to other animals, even the our nearest relatives, the great apes. When a gorilla is giving birth, she finds a nice hiding place in the trees, squats down for like half an hour, and pushes out a baby. Humans, not so much. In fact, the outcomes of unassisted childbirth in humans are so poor that most anthropologists agree that we must have invented midwifery in some form before we became fully human.
See I hate calling the cops and arguably one of the most satisfying parts of my job is when someone is doing dumb shit and I can resolve it without my employers calling the cops but that being said sometimes on occasion I have no choice but to call the cops and when that happens I would really really really love it if the operator didn't take it as an invitation to fucking argue with me
Operator: Hello
Me: Is this dispatch?
Operator: No, what is your situation
Me: Security at XYZ, please connect me with dispatch
Operator: What for
Me: I'm security at XYZ, there is a theft in progress, please connect me with dispatch
Operator: Have they left the building?
Me: They have concealed several hundred dollars in equipment into bags and are preparing to leave the building
Operator: But they're still inside?
Me: Yes
Operator: Have they been asked to leave?
Me: No, they have weapons and we cannot approach, please connect me to dispatch
Operator: Have they threatened anyone?
Me: No. We have not approached
Operator: Well you see then they have not committed a crime
Me:
Me: Are You Fucking Serious
Operator: It's just the law
Me: I know the law. This is my job. They are moving towards the exit with the concealed equipment
Operator: Have they left with the items?
Me: They are on their way to leave with the items. A car has pulled up outside
Operator: Call us back when they've left
Me:
Me: Are you fucking serious
and on the other end of the stupid spectrum there is, "You are doing something stupid and if you keep doing the stupid thing then SOMEONE will call the cops and I'd rather we all just chilled out instead" which works 99% of the time, but that last 1% is just
Me: Hey, bud. Heard the owner found you smoking in the bathroom. You doing okay
Them: Fuck off
Me: Yeah, fair enough. Listen, I don't wanna bug you, I just wanna ask if you could move like twenty feet that way? The owner is a bit freaked out and I can probably get them to chill if they see you're off the property
Them: I said fuck off, I'm not going anywhere, you can't tell me what to do, fuckin goof
Me: Okay, that's fine. I'm just doing my job. Not trying to get you in trouble or start a fight. I'd really rather not deal with the cops today anyway you know, haha
Them, pulling out a knife: Are you fucking threatening me
Me:
Me: Do you have any idea how much overtime I have to do now
