Reddit is no more to me, Twitter is no more to me, I return to try and Tumblr once more. Expect few posts, and the ones that escape to be either funposting, or unhinged nerd
ranting.
My music taste has often been eclectic within the white boy sphere, starting with a solid foundation of alt rock and branching out every which way. The Dubstep Epoch, the Death Grips Zeitgeist, The Pisces Pipeline, the Mashup Era, The slow creeping appreciation of certain aspects of country. Throughout it all however, there has been one,
eternal,
ever-present,
beating,
constant.
I cannot get away from how many endorphins a real belting sax solo sends ripping through my brain like a typhoon.
So there has been a bit of “what if humans were the weird ones?” going around tumblr at the moment and Earth Day got me thinking. Earth is a wonky place, the axis tilts, the orbit wobbles, and the ground spews molten rock for goodness sakes. What if what makes humans weird is just our capacity to survive? What if all the other life bearing planets are these mild, Mediterranean climates with no seasons, no tectonic plates, and no intense weather?
What if several species (including humans) land on a world and the humans are all “SCORE! Earth like world! Let’s get exploring before we get out competed!” And the planet starts offing the other aliens right and left, electric storms, hypothermia, tornadoes and the humans are just … there… counting seconds between flashes, having snowball fights, and just surviving.
The little RB statistics chart is so pleasant and stimmy to look at and I want to see what it looks like when it gets really REALLY huge because it makes me think of some deep sea lifeform
