Pretty much what it says on the tin. I like bowties, educating people about diabetes, nerdy stuff (LOTR, WOT, Witcher, etc), public health, and history. Trans rights are suicide prevention and human rights. He/they. 18+ MDNI. 20 something

Absolutely gorgeous here as well.
Aurora Borealis over our backyard in Southeast PA. There is a large splotch of red on the left side of the picture, which fades into purple in the night sky; on the right behind the trees you can see a green splotch, which extends upward, although much more faint.

Dryden: “How did he die?”

James Bond: “your contact? Not well.”

Cutscene:
A still from the Silent Hill 2 Remake, in which James Sunderland is about to whack one of the zipperhead monsters (i think they're called "lying figures?) with a wooden plank, while another is close behind in the fog

My ass after Indian food:
Blight 4th level necromancy Casting time: 1 action Range: 30 feet Target: a creature that you can see within range Components: verbal, somatic Duration: Instantaneous Classes: Druid, Sorcerer, Warlock, Wizard Necromantic energy washes over a creature of your choice that you can see within range, draining moisture and vitality from it. The target must make a constitution saving throw. The target takes 8d8 necrotic damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one. This spell has no effect on undead or constructs. If you target a plant creature or magical plant, it makes the saving throw with disadvantage, and the spell deals maximum damage to it. If you target a nonmagical plant that isn't a creature, such as a tree or shrub, it doesn't make a saving throw; it simply withers and dies. At Higher Levels: When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 5th level or higher, the damage increases by 1d8 for each slot level above 4th.

If you see this, post an image you saved because it made you laugh.

Congrats, you get a two for one deal!
Literally the goofiest fuckin rich people shoe you could imagine. Supposedly a "derby shoe", but it looks like a lace-up version of a witch's shoe. It was for sale for something fucking crazy on Balenciaga, upwards of like $920 I think. Absolutely fucking bonkers. It's weirdly long and thin? And it curves upward for some reason? When i saw this i guffawed. Who the fuck would wear this goofy ass clown shoe lookin headass of a shoe. The model for the goofy rich people shoe. Dude's wearing a suit that's like numerous sizes too big. it's so massive on the person that their hands don't even come out of the sleeves. They're literally swimming in this fucking suit. It looks like they're a highschooler who put on their dad's suit. Genuinely, who would wear this outside of a bit. How the fuck is this supposed to make me want to buy a goofy headass shoe.

Been seeing a "favorite selfies of 2024" thing going around, so aside from my pfp, this is it. I'm ready to defend my project at 5 on zoom, and then i'm done my internship. Whew.
Me, in a purple dress shirt, mid blue grenadine silk tie, and a darker navy blue double breasted jacket with peak lapels. You can see the top of a white pocket square peeking up.

Fascinating. Last I checked, my local area is surprisingly not the approximate temperature of a star.
Current weather page in southeastern Pennsylvania, claiming it is 24,398°F outside, placing it above the minimum temperature of a white dwarf star.

If you were a villain who would you be?
One of my favorite scenes from The Dark Knight. The Joker (Heath Ledger) pulls out a pencil and explains he's gonna do a magic trick and make the pencil disappear, so one of the black mafia guys gets up to beat the shit out of him as ordered by his boss Gambol (Michael Jai White). Right when he walks over to the Joker, he slams the guy's head into the table, killing him with the pencil, and goes "ta-daaaa!"

There's no guarantee you'd even gain bodily autonomy from that, though. In fact, I think most people would understandably be hurt and rightfully see you as someone who views others as lesser. Your path does not lead to winning.

Can we fuck off with this "hey i'm sobbing" grifting crap already? The election was nigh on 3 weeks ago and I didn't have money to piss away on "pushing election ads" in my state or whatnot, what makes you think that's changed? Fucken a.

If you've ever heard someone say, "health is wealth" - this is why. Being healthy allows you to succeed and earn more, whereas poverty will disable you or exacerbate existing disabilities. I've never met a person who deserves to be poor, nor will I.
Twitter account Tay Zonday Being poor now just leads to being more poor later. Can't pay to clean your teeth? Next year, pay for a root canal. Can't pay for a new mattress? Next year, pay for back surgery. Can't pay to get that lump checked out? Next year, pay for stage 3 cancer. Poverty charges interest. 1:53 pm 19 Jul 18

Hot damn. Ghost is Tsushima is just. Fucking gorgeous
A screenshot of the hit video game Ghost of Tsushima. The protagonist Jin Sakai, a samurai, is standing on a rock overlooking a small lake amidst a peaceful forest scene, the leaves tinged with orange, yellowish green, mid green, and dark green. There is a small clearing where you can see pampas grass. Violet flower petals are floating in the air. Jin is dressed in a traditional kimono in royal dark purple, a brown hakama, and a brown straw hat. The saya of his katana bears a pink ribbon.

Re-introduction via selfie(s)

xD all work fits, too
Me at work. I'm wearing a pale blue oxford cloth button down shirt, a paisley diamond-pointed bowtie in navy blue, crimson red, and buff, and a beige cream wool shawl collar sweater. Me, just before work. I'm wearing a navy blue turtleneck under a gorgeous brown leather moto jacket. Me at home, just before work. I'm wearing a cream button down dress shirt, a navy blue tie in silk grenadine, and a tan wool sportcoat in herringbone. An olive pocket square is peeking out of my breast pocket. You can see a brown sweater peeking out from under my sportcoat.

I thought that Geralt of Rivia (White Wolf, wise Wolf) said they pretty much turn into these sooner or later
Four species of drowners, from the Witcher 3. As per their name, they can be found in or near bodies of water. They look like a cross between murlocs, a type of water monster found in the Warcraft series, and zombies.

Looking up “ice” in my screenshots just for funsies
Image that reads, "What's wrong babe? You hardly touched your vanilla bean ice cream". There is vanilla ice cream in a bowl, topped by what appears to be pinto beans, not coffee beans as one would expect.

This is incredibly misleading. Climate change activists had nothing to do with this pileup - this was caused by flooding in Valencia. Multiple sources talk about this and make zero mention about "climate change activists":

2. www.snopes.com/fact-check/v...

Funniest fucking scene in either Red Dead game. This would crack me up back in the day when I had this on PS3, and it cracked me up tonight.
Herbert Moon, the general store manager of the town of Armadillo in Red Dead Redemption, ranting about how he doesn't like anyone that isn't a white protestant man. The same Herbert Moon getting eaten by three zombies. "You can't eat me, I'm HERBERT MOOOOOON!" John Marston is watching and smirking, as anyone in their right mind would be.
