And just a reminder that Facebook could have bought tumblr.
This could have been a hell of a lot worse.^ THIS
Yahoo isn’t changing anything about Tumblr…they’re taking an entirely hands off approach…Tumblr is literally EXACTLY THE SAME as it has always been…Yahoo buying it hasn’t changed anything
when you ship a ship so hard you don’t even care about the smut; you just want a billion page book about their entire lives beginning to end and how their lives are intertwined with one another’s and how beautiful their love is

I love how - I hope you step on a lego - is the absolute worst thing we can think of

Teen’s invention could charge your phone in 20 seconds
(Photo: Intel)
Waiting hours for a cellphone to charge may become a thing of the past, thanks to an 18-year-old high-school student’s invention. She won a $50,000 prize Friday at an international science fair for creating an energy storage device that can be fully juiced in 20 to 30 seconds.
Everybody, remember this face.
Remember this name.
If this becomes a commonly used & highly lauded discovery, at some point a White guy is going to take credit, even if he has to word it like “Improved upon a previous…”
No no no
Fuck that guy.
Remember this brown girl.
Remeeeemmmmmberrrrr
neo-gandalf asked: I have a question about how to write something in Elvish. It's the Pokemon, "Espeon." I'm a bit confused. I kind of get the whole, "How to write your name" portion, but not much else. So, would I write the Pokemon name as 1) Espeon, 2) Esse-P-Awn, or 3) Esse-Pee-Awn? Or am I completely off? Please help??
The placement of the tehta is going to vary (that is, the vowel markers) based on whether you are writing in Sindarin or Quenya mode, but what you want is to use the phonetic spelling—that is, all of the individual sounds of the word. So ignore the spellings that I’m using here, and just pay attention to the sound:
Eh-ss-puh-ee-aw-nn
You will have three tehta and three tengwa, six characters in total, in order to spell that name. Hope that helps!
[religion] In which we discover that I may be a Wheatonist →
I observed that in simplistic terms, most constructive religious commandments boil down to Wheaton’s Law: “Don’t be a dick.” I’m not talking about the religious commandments about not eating shrimp, or avoiding cheeseburgers, or hating on gay people, or wearing magic underwear, or whatever. Those are tribal in-group signifiers, not moral guidance. I’m talking about the whole not bearing false witness thing, not coveting your neighbor’s ass in a non-consensual fashion, do as you would be done by, an it harm none, and so forth. Those are affirmative statements of social principle. (Some of which may of course also be tribal in-group signifiers.)
So I suppose if I were to subscribe to a religion, I’d be a Wheatonist. My religion would have one commandment: “Don’t be a dick.” That’s about it. Seems to cover almost everything what needs covering. Living as a Wheatonist, I could be mistaken for an anonymous Christian or a good Buddhist either one.
This makes me happy.
Not gonna lie—I first misread this as Whedonist and got excited. However, after some contenplation and reflection, I think I would be more of a fit in a Wheatonist religion of “don’t be a dick” than a Whedonesque “it doesn’t matter how much people love you, you could be cruelly, suddenly, needlessly killed at any moment”. I’ve never been one for religions that utilize fear to shape the behaviors of their followers.
