any guesses for what the next illustration is? :)

“Hold still…”

I promised I’d talk more about my AUs, so let me ramble about Magical Malpractice 🗣

In this AU, Wilson essentially takes Willow’s place as Maxwell’s ‘helper’ in our world. He was a failing doctor based in New York, somewhere in the 1900s to 1910s, struggling to pay back debt gathered by immigration + establishment of his clinic. Maxwell offers him otherworldly funding in exchange for information on his ‘patients’, and if said patients are what he’s looking for, they’re promptly brought into the Constant.

As funding isn’t an issue for him, Wilson offers his services for free, having all walks of life stumble into his clinic in hopes of alleviation from their ailments. A handful never step back out of that clinic, as Maxwell finds his pawns and Wilson continues his studies worry-free. Many are given an ultimatum by the shaded visage, and with the way Wilson’s reacted to the ‘severity’ of their afflictions, many give in to the deal made on their death bed to avoid their coming fate.

As for Wilson himself? When speculation grew around town, it grew fast. The doctor was suspected of malpractice, and being unable to perform his side of the bargain with Maxwell, the good doctor abandons his post, never to be seen again.

Not in this world, anyway.

i want 60 thousand votes by next thursday

ok lets settle it. which laios is getting the best dick rn

somehow the poor cops who we were told are simply too understaffed and underpaid because of Woke to deal with 'rampant rising crime' have found the strength to beat the shit out of college students across the whole country for peacefully saying "divest from the country killing innocent palestinians in the tens of thousands"

before the poll, a quick definition of terms:

"mutual" - you found this post from a mutual (on their blog or your dash) "following" - you found this post from someone you're following, but who isn't following you "random" - you found this by scrolling through someone's blog, who you don't follow. this includes people following you "For You" - you found this on the For You page "recommended" - you found this in a "Check out these blogs" popup, or a "recommended" post when looking at a different post "other" - you found this post some other way. comment how? "reblog ✅" - you're going to reblog, queue, or schedule this post "reblog ❌" - you're NOT going to reblog, queue, or schedule this post

with that out of the way:

So we all know that Tumblr is US-centric. But to what degree? (and can we skew the results of this poll by posting it at a time where they should be asleep?)

Reblog to increase sample size!

I cant believe this tweet is how I find out

I just think it would be funny to switch things up and lead with "popular far-right online blogger, Joan Rowling" once in awhile.

Elon Musk bought the company. He has nothing to do with the development. #CosplayEngineer

cant get more fascist police state than snipers on rooftops overlooking peaceful protests.

this is what democracy looks like.

Being a young adult is so strange. You enter a coffee shop. The 20 year old girl waiting behind you cried all night because she just came to a new city for university and she feels so alone. That 27 year old guy over there works a job he is overqualified for, he lives with his parents and wants to move out but doesn't know what to do about it. That one 24 year old dude already has a car, a house, and a job waiting for him once he graduates thanks to his dad's connections. The 26 year old barista couldn't complete his higher education because he has to work and take care of his family. The 28 year old girl sitting next to you has no friends to go out with so she is texting her mother. That couple (both 25 years old) are married and the girl is pregnant. The 29 year old writing something on her laptop has realized that she chose the wrong major so she is trying to start all over. We are not alone in this, but we are actually so alone. Do you feel me

Y'all, the world is sleeping on what NASA just pulled off with Voyager 1

The probe has been sending gibberish science data back to Earth, and scientists feared it was just the probe finally dying. You know, after working for 50 GODDAMN YEARS and LEAVING THE GODDAMN SOLAR SYSTEM and STILL CHURNING OUT GODDAMN DATA.

So they analyzed the gibberish and realized that in it was a total readout of EVERYTHING ON THE PROBE. Data, the programming, hardware specs and status, everything. They realized that one of the chips was malfunctioning.

So what do you do when your probe is 22 Billion km away and needs a fix? Why, you just REPROGRAM THAT ENTIRE GODDAMN THING. Told it to avoid the bad chip, store the data elsewhere.

Sent the new code on April 18th. Got a response on April 20th - yeah, it's so far away that it took that long just to transmit.

And the probe is working again.

From a programmer's perspective, that may be the most fucking impressive thing I have ever heard.

This has been a PSA.
