Maybe it's the pill for motionsickness (which makes me sleepy and completely high), maybe it's the fact i've had a fever for 3 days or maybe it's because i slept 5h in the last few days but oh boy the floor at my train station is freaking cool i need to know more
It looks like it's loads of bivalves but i'm really bad at identifying even when i'm not tripping
Jli (1987)
The anger, the boomer joke of "huh my wife amaright", the shot fired at batman, the perfect pose she has, the even more perfect bunny slippers... i can't
Found another one
I have nothing to say, just needed to share that somewhere

Me : slutshaming ? In 2024 ?! I don't believe this
Also me every 5 seconds :
We are approaching the maximum of images you can post here so I thought it was time I make a little showcase of all the formation pieces we covered so far on the streams.
For people who don't know: for several months now I draw one formation or fossil locality every Saturday. The next place we visit is chosen by a wheel of names, which we also constantly fill up again when a new formation is picked.
I try to make it as interesting as possible in my composition and choice of animals and I can tell you this series has been a great training when it comes to constructing these, how I call them, Menageries.
I have to thank a team of friends and colleagues who help behind the scenes with research, creation of size charts and conversation partners when it comes to deciding on the compositions of these pieces. Their help has been invaluable!
I know it was probably said like a million times since the movie came out, but my favourite detail in the whole movie is in the DNA numbers with Red Hood's 635 being the issue number when he appears under that name while Jason's 428 is for the issue in which he dies
Pour mes fellow français out there si on rapportait l'histoire de la Terre sur une année, actuellement on serait au niveau de l'equateur, il ferait chaud sa grand-mère, les massifs anciens genre armoricain (c'est les granites en Bretagne) s'érodent mais les Alpes et les Pyrénées existent pas encore...
On est presque mi décembre et quasi toutes les structures que j'ai étudié en géologie sur des cartes depuis le début de ma scolarité n'ont pas encore été créées. La méditerranée n'existe pas encore... l'Atlantique non plus...Et on est mi décembre...
Do you like volcanoes but wish they were bigger?
Would you like to see the world choked with smoke?
Do you in all your cosmic power feel like things need a hard reset?
Then the Permian period might be for you!
Lasting from 298.9-251.9 Ma, if you compressed all of Earth's history into a year, December 7th-11th would mark the Permian period.
While it did see some innovations in life with the continued diversification of therapsids and sauropsids as they spread around Pangaea, the period is mainly known for mass extinctions, of which there were at least three.
The first was fairly minor in comparison to the others, where the end of the early Permian saw the extinction of several groups of early land vertebrates such as Dimetrodon as other tetrapods gained prominence.
And then, some time in the mid Permian, the sea began to erupt.
The Emeishan Traps are a formation in China where basalt covers an area extending approximately 250,000 square kilometers, which is roughly the size of the state of Michigan. It could have originally been twice that size, covering an area larger than the state of California with volcanic deposits an average of 700 meters thick. Originating on the sea floor, it released massive amounts of sulfur and carbon dioxides, wreaking havoc on the world's climate. A recent paper published in the journal Geology also makes the case that the eruptions also managed to heat up oil and gas deposits in the area, cooking them underground and leading to the release of even more carbon dioxide and methane gas.
Estimates on the impact of this eruption vary, but around a third of marine life went extinct, and the majority of survivors on land were burrowing animals.
This was already about as significant as the extinction that would kill the non-avian dinosaurs in the late Triassic Cretaceous in terms of severity, but it would soon be eclipsed by the single worst mass extinction in Earth's history: the end Permian, or "The Great Dying".
In what is now modern day Siberia, another massive series of eruptions took place, forming the Siberian Traps. Over the course of two million years, around a million cubic miles of basalt were laid down over an area of 7 million square kilometers. This was 14 times the size of the Emeishan Traps, and covered an area roughly the size of Australia. Most of it erupted in the first million years. The massive amounts of carbon and sulfur dioxide released led to dramatic ocean acidification and climate change.
It is speculated that the traps also lit coal fields on fire, adding to their emissions. This, combined with a possible contribution from a meteorite impact on the other side of the world led to mass die offs.
81% of Marine life, and 70% of terrestrial species went extinct.
On land, it is estimated to have taken nearly 30 million years for life to recover.
As heavy as that is though, it did recover.
When the dust settled, there was still life in the oceans, and plants still grew on the land, and animals came out from their burrows, blinking in the light of a new day. And they lived.
New species would come. Life would be made new. The sun continued to shine, and rain continued to fall, and in the end the Earth had made it through.
Life found a way to make it through a level of destruction beyond anything we have ever seen or could imagine as a species. And, with a little bit of hope, help, and luck, so can we.
Edit: ( Mistakenly wrote "Triassic" rather than Cretaceous)
I went from I can't wait for the new dc films to i'm scared i won't like them to i don't want to read a comics i know will be adapted to i don't want to watch another superhero movie ever again to i think i need a break from comics to if i don't get expectations it could be ok to you know what if they adapt one of my fav character i can always find another to oh no i'm gatekeeping, aren't i to if they adapt a character i love i can force my friends to watch it with me and we can fangirl together to NOOOO they're going to adapt all 3 of my favssss i can't take iiiittt to but hey they probably won't adapt Tim lol

Admiration increased to 100
Working on a new project. A fusion of Volsung and Miraak mask. This is a unique mask which is not in the game.
In french to text someone dw (don't worry) we write tkt which is short for "t'inquiètes".
First thing to note is that as you can see there is no k in "t'inquiètes" but we still write tkt instead of tqt
Second thing to note is that "t'inquiètes" is short for "t'inquiètes pas" , literally "worry not". B u t w e d r o p t h e "pas" w h i c h m e a n s "not"
So, to say "don't worry" we say "worry yourself"
I love it
I hate that i watched that episodes months ago but i still remember every sentences
I'm not learning klingon but i want to learn that
With his arms open
At age 8 i liked history and linguistics
At age 21 i like rocks and batman
At age 8 i learned some simplified hieroglyph alphabet i found in a book
At age 21 my mom got angry at me when we were on a walk bc i kept looking at every freaking pebbles
1/ discover dc comics through an animated or live action series or movie
2/think you could start comics with one of the main jl hero (but probably batman)
(at this stage you might have watched a video about where to start)
3/ find out your favourite character from that team/family
4/ discover more about them until you read a comics where they team up with one or more character(s) from another big fam
5/ get more and more niche from one team up to another until when someone asks your favourite character you realise you can't answear the question without assessing how much the person who asks knows about comics first
6/ enjoy feeling overwhelmed with the amount of arcs you want to read
If you don't know dc comics i'll say batgirl, if you know a bit of comics i might say nightwing and even dona troy or jessica cruz if you know more
Then i'll ask if you know booster or midnighter

I think it's the third year in a row i've had to relearn Darcy's law because i keep forgetting the equation, because i read the name and i instantly think "Oh yes Darcy of course i know of him i haven't had the pleasure of being introduced but i hear he has over 10000 a year"
#women in stem i guess
(anyway i'm failing fluid mecanics)
Because of reasons i watched these two episodes within 2 weeks of each other and now i think i might not be okay emotionally
Star trek season 5 ep 23 and Doctor Who season 1 ep 6
#why must you make me cry over living beings who are fused with machines and are meant not to have individuality but because of an accident and some woman's compassion they start to feel and they experience loneliness and now they can never fulfill their sole life mission
#yes i know cybermen are the better analogy
#but there were no cybermen in season one of dw and i've rewatched only that one recently
#Hugh looked back 🥲
#He looked at Geordi one last time
#i'm going to cry
#what is it with Geordi and androids

I don't deserve to wear that federation pin i bought 6 months ago.....no yeah
I want to write a HP fic where it's BeauxBatons students that go to Hogwarts on some school exchange and Hogwarts hasn't changed much since the harry potter time, but BeauxBatons is now very much like a regular modern french highschool where they complain about the curriculum changing each year, and they burn bins in front of the school gate and stop students from entering because the french ministry of magic has just passed a law about pensions
