Rewatching the extended fellowship of the ring compelled me to make this shitpost video of Legolas and Aragorn being besties
Those who do study history are doomed to watch as everyone who didn't repeats it around them.
Yo, correct me if I am wrong please, but didn't Hitler rise to power because he promised to fix the German economy and people really liked that so they looked past everything else he was doing??? Like exactly what's happening in America right now???
So many people said they voted for Trump, put a truly evil person in power, because he said he'd fix the economy, and a little voice in my head is going, "Isn't that what happened with fucking Hitler??"
But I've seen no one point that out so maybe I'm miss remembering???????

Do you think it would be possible to do this in reverse for minor surgery if for example someone was allergic to anaesthetic?
Like set the whole thing up, then draw with a pen where the incisions "would be" to "prepare" while the real hand actually has the operation.
I suspect the brain might reinterpret the sensation as drawing with a pen rather than being cut with a scalpel.
However, running this experiment would be probably too risky because of the damage possible if it didn't work and the patient flinched.
Given what I've heard about being stabbed in the back with a knife (it just feels like you've been punched apparently) if you don't know it's a knife, I suspect it probably would work.
Not willing to try though.
this is insaaaane, our brains are so fucking weird
There’s a room in your house that exists outside of normal time. No one can bother you because no time passes between you going in and coming out no matter how long you’re there. Until one day someone is already there.
This is in the US, but similar things are happening in the UK where I live. If you do nothing, you're supporting the oppressors.
If you haven't been speaking out, speak out.
Aliens doing this to me would really annoy me. I enjoy my internal jukebox and don't mind if they listen in, as long as they don't skip the songs I like.
As such, HR would definitely get involved because I would just start playing very NSFW songs! 🤣
Telepathic aliens enjoy that humans will "play music" for hours at a time. When it's too mentally quiet on deck, they just announce the catchiest song titles they know and the humans will start thinking about it automatically.
The humans hate this so, so much.
Zorf: Human Steve, can you please play that song I like, the one with all the females
Steve: what
Zorf: A little bit of Monica in my life
Steve:
Steve: mother fu--
From what I understand, they didn't "bring back" the dire wolf, which went extinct 10,000 years ago. What they did was mutated a grey wolf and grew pups who have exactly the same genome as the long extinct dire wolf.
This does beg the question how much does it matter if they are actually linearly related, if they have the same genetics?
Of course as Jurassic park pointed out, this is not exactly a great idea. We don't have the ecosystems that support a creature with those genetics any more.
Lol. Lmao even
HEY, FELLOW HATERS OF INSANELY-BRIGHT CAR HEADLIGHTS, SOMEONE HAS STARTED A PETITION TO REGULATE THEM.
It's an official petition through the Australian Government's e-petition page, which means if it gets enough signatures, it will be tabled in government.
You do have to be an Australian citizen to sign it, BUT!!! PLEASE REBLOG THIS EVEN IF YOURE NOT, because these kind of things have a roll-on effect, and if Australia legislates LED headlights, then other countries may follow.
FYI, the petition asks only for your name and email, and once you've clicked the sign button, they'll send you an email to confirm your signature --- you need to click the confirmation link in the email to have your signature counted.
Hi Neil, sorry if this question was already asked, but i was talking with a friend about good omens and we both want to know one thing.
If I'm not mistaken, I think you said that you and Terry Pratchett had a story or a concept for a second part of good omens and now season 2 will be based on that. So, why didn't you write the book? Even after Terry died, didn't you want to write it "in his style"?
Sorry, I don't want to be rude or disrespectful, and you don't have to answer obviously
Actually, Season 3 is based on that. Season 2 is the sandwich filler between them.
In an alternate universe I suppose I might have done. In this one, when Terry died, I was committed to trying to get the TV series he had wanted to see before he died made.
