Fandom elder, single, rooted in the pacific northwest. She/Her. I'm definitely more of an internet introvert but love making new friends! I am still proud Glee and Klaine trash and always will be. I collect fandoms rather than moving on, so other fandoms featured here include The X-Files, LOTR, Gilmore Girls, Snowbaz (from Carry On), Check Please, Orphan Black, Ted Lasso, and RTD era Doctor Who, mixed with liberal politics and intersectional feminism and whatever else catches my fancy. I tag liberally. I don't believe in and don't support conspiracy theories. I write fan fiction, slowly, and none of my fic are abandoned. No, not even that one.
Sorry to everyone who’s enjoyed the last 130 years of science and culture journalism, but Disney needs the money to fund Toy Story 9
We’ve decided to upgrade our cookie production by substituting the premium high quality fair trade chocolate chips with various types of chocolate sourced from random people’s snack drawers all around the globe. Any insinuation that these changes could negatively impact the consistently delicious taste of our cookies is simply incorrect.
hey science side of tumblr, if you’re not on your union mandated lunch break, a question for you
when these resin casts are made and the top is sorta like, opaque (if that’s the right word) how come when the liquid resin is poured on top and then sets, that it becomes perfectly clear
Because of light refraction! Basically when you sand Resin casts (or in this case, from sanding the pinecones down) you wind up with an absolute fuckton of tiny scratches in the surface, and light that hits it bounces in all kinds of weird directions. But, since liquid resin can still bond with set resin, pouring a *very thin* layer of it over the top fills in the imperfections and makes the surface smooth like glass, so the light travels in a normal pattern again
being so fr when I say that transmisogyny has put feminism back like 50 years
what i thought we had distanced ourselves from was the reduction of women to vaginas and wombs and the ability to bear children. i thought we had progressed past ‘dresses are for women and pants are for men.’ i thought we progressed past the idea that someone is less of a woman if she does not adhere strictly to beauty standards. i thought we progressed past the idea that naturally being comfortable adhering to highly feminine standards is vulgar. but i (sarcastically) guess no one could have predicted that trans-exclusive feminism would be the downfall of all the progress we’ve made
