I Should Really Edit My Desktop Theme
A blog for anything I feel like posting. Also I should update this with about me info since mobile can't access my about page | J | queer | They/She/He (but that last one’s more out of convenience I’m some sort of nonbinary transfemme girlboy manwoman) | March 27 1991 currently 33 | <3 moveslikebucky | fixate on a lot of things but they're all pretty constant throughout just sometimes bomb tags | lichrally just stuck with this url the past nine years because "Great Vest Bro Han Solo shrugging gif" is my biggest most impactful online joke and I wasn't OP on the original post I made the joke on so I'm kinda stuck with this to link myself to it | Hi this is actually a little bit longer than my actual about page so thank's for sticking with it this far have a lovely day

I like how that one is named for both Napoleon Bonaparte’s clothing but also named for how he handled the Russia campaign
What Americans know as "Danish pastries" is actually something called a 'spandaur' and it only represents a fraction of the pastries integral to Danish life. Here's a few more commonly available pastries:
Spandauer - Kanelsnegl - Fastelavnsbolle
Napoleonshat - Tebirkes - Brunsviger
Hindbærsnitte - Kransekage - Medalje
Kajkage - Gåsebryst - Kartoffelkage
Linse - Træstamme - Wienerstang
Kanelstang - Frøsnapper - Studenterbrød
Kokostop - Chokoladetrekant - Kaffebrød
Makronsnitte - Nøddesnitte Smørstang

best bread for violence purposes?
Anything without dough conditioners will be rock solid after a few days, and the humble baguette is already a good shape for swinging

I am once again thinking about digging holes
It's so fucked up that digging a bunch of holes works so well at reversing desertification
I hate that so much discourse into fighting climate change is talking about bioenginerring a special kind of seaweed that removes microplastics or whatever other venture-capital-viable startup idea when we have known for forever about shit like digging crescent shaped holes to catch rainwater and turning barren land hospitable

Please does anybody have the picture of the orange kitten sitting in front of old yellowed wood paneling and it’s smiling like this. The post where I saw it went something like “little kids before they learn how to smile in photos”

Photographers all know about polarizing filters. They remove reflections off the surfaces of objects. We use them to see into water or windows that are obscured by those reflections. But anything with an even slightly glossy surface has a layer of reflection on top. So if you have a shiny green plant, it can remove the shiny and reveal a very saturated green underneath. Polarizers also remove a lot of scattered and reflected light from the sky. Which reveals a deep blue color you didn't even know was there.
Here is a photo I took of my circular polarizer.
And the first thing I noticed when walking outside during the eclipse was the color of everything was more saturated, just like in that circle. Apparently, an eclipse significantly reduces polarized light and I got this creepy feeling because I was only ever used to seeing the world like that through the viewfinder of my camera.
The other thing I noticed was my outdoor lights. I leave them on all the time because I never remember to turn them on at night. And usually the sun will render them barely visible during the day. On a very sunny day they almost look like they are off.
But you can clearly see they are shining and even flaring the camera during the eclipse.
Our eyes adjust to lighting changes very well so it was hard to tell how much dimmer things were, but that is a good indication. I took this photo a few minutes ago and you can see how dim the lights appear after the moon has fucked off.
I did a calculation using the exposure settings between these two photos. The non-eclipse photo has 7 f-stops more light. That is 128 times or 12,700% more light.
A partial Pringle eclipse cut the sun's light by 99.2% and somehow our eyes adjusted to make it seem like a normal sunny day (with weird ass saturated colors).

Justice League identity reveal where they don’t know who Batman is and one day a bunch of them walk in on him just casually eating yogurt in the cafeteria with his cowl off. A bunch of them recognize him, a couple don’t, and they’re all shocked.
Turns out Batman didn’t realize none of them knew who he was, since it had taken him all of ten minutes and three google searches to put everyone’s secret identities together and he just assumed they had all figured it out by this point. Or maybe he had meant to tell them and then just forgotten. Either way, he regularly interacts with half of them outside of hero stuff and hasn’t bothered with the whole separate persona thing with them in years. Shouldn’t they really have figured this out by now? So what if he forgot? This is clearly on them.

You, a heroic paladin have successfully slain a fearsome dragon. But the dragon warns you that death is but a door, and dragons don’t die, they reincarnate. You paid it no mind….until your son was born with golden, slitted eyes.

The Rwanda bill has been passed. People seeking asylum in the UK are no longer safe. This bill has been criticised by many human rights groups, yet parliment have still decided to go ahead with it. People are seeking safety in the UK, and are being turned away. Article 25 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights states that "Everyone has the right to a standard of living adequate for the health and well-being of himself and of his family, including food, clothing, housing and medical care and necessary social services, and the right to security in the event of unemployment, sickness, disability, widowhood, old age or other lack of livelihood in circumstances beyond his control.". The Rwanda bill prevents this. There is no conformation that people sent to Rwanda will be safe there. This is a blatant violation of human rights. Asylum seekers are human too, and they should be treated as such.

I'm in awe of how we ran historical revisionism on the civil rights movement so bad that people truly believe it was quiet self-sacrifcial non-disruptive christ-like activism that forced progress and not — like — the incredible economic pressure of boycotts and outbreaks of illegal civil disobedience
Yapping to the choir but eughhh it burns me up girl effective protests have to be loud and inconvenient for change to happen because silent cries die in the dark that's the entire pointtt

“Just saw a cartoon depicting student protestors as being pro-Hamas while wearing a Hitler mustache.
That made me curious how student demonstrators in the 1960s were depicted in editorial cartoons.
