if you’ve got a bunch of teenagers in space w no access to media they are going to start making their own entertainment so i think that we need to discuss team voltron memes

  • “where’s [insert team member here]?” “i mean… *looks out window at the stars, shrugs* space, probably”
  • they keep a tally of every time lance gets rejected by someone and use it to shut him up when he’s getting annoying
    • “okay i’m gonna stop you there, 37 strike outs”
  • whenever an alien does something particularly weird pidge loudly hums the x-files theme
  • lance will do random trust falls “for team bonding.” everyone lets him fall on his ass but shiro
  • drawing mustaches on random objects and talking to them as if they’re coran
  • for like two weeks lance refers to keith exclusively through pop culture references
    • “hey where’s older, angrier Nico Di Angelo?”
    • “scarless Zuko is in position”
    • “ayo young Billy Ray Cyrus come spar with me” 
  • loud acapella renditions of The Circle of Life during training sessions
  • hunk the Hunk™
  • calling shiro dad but only in the context of petty arguments (“daaaaaad, lance won’t stop touching my stuff”)
  • *points at something pidge is tinkering with* “is that a calculator”
  • constant shitting on the castle’s defenses
    • “after that fight, I think I need a drink, and it better be stronger than that particle barrier”
  • there’s a month long campaign to catch shiro in the middle of his morning routine to solve the mystery of whether or not he uses eyeliner. but they can never catch him getting up in the morning?? like one time they pull an all nighter and hide in his bathroom and somehow?? he still evades them???
  • whenever allura enters the room lance yells “everyone act casual” and they all strike ridiculous poses
  • *lance gets into a Situation and asks keith for help* “I’m sorry I… can’t hear you…. I think the connection’s…… breaking up…………”
  • exaggeratingly censoring themselves in front of pidge
    • “oh biscuits and jam I am so darn steamed right now!” “lance shut the fuck up”

In 2010, the RIKEN institute in Japan created mutant cherry blossom trees by firing ion beams at them in a particle accelerator. The mutated trees now bloom four times a year and produce more flowers.

a wise use of science powers

ok so i’m not saying this is the most japanese thing ever, but I’m not saying it’s not

“we have a ray gun that creates mutants” anime level 8/10

“we used it to make super cherry blossoms” japan level 10/10

“so are they like firebreathing carnivorous flowers or” “no they just make more flowers, more often” aesthetic level 11/10

“well done, this is exactly what we hoped would happen when we paid a zillion dollars to build a particle accelerator” —the project backers

Particle physics is fucking magic
Some wizards took a magic box into the woods and fucked up some trees. I love this shit

“ok so should we mutate like a super army or-” “no. this sakura tree.” “but why” “hanami four times a year instead of once. imagine”

BIG MOOD

What does she want give it to he r

GIVE IT TO HER YOU MONSTER

HIs name is Fuku and he’s deaf. His owner’s instagram says he was just ‘singing’. Considering he is deaf it’s likely he has no idea how loud he is.

Good Boy

@why-animals-do-the-thing this is pretty interesting. Kitty has an odd voice.

straight men repress their feelings so severely with their friends and family, and then they come across a girl (whos been socialized to be Empathetic and Nurturing) and they find that they can tell this girl about their Feelings ! everythings great she’s The One ! in reality they just have a normal human bond but actually connecting with anyone is so foreign to men and their emotionally barren male relationships that it seems like something great and wonderful. so now girl is put on a pedestal that she’ll eventually fall from bc she’s human and not just a Male Feelings Receptacle and everyone loses all bc fathers refuse to cry in front of their sons

Whoever wrote this is brilliant.

There’s nothing inherently wrong with alternative medicine and the idea that “there’s a reason it’s not just called mecicine” leads a lot of people to reject treatment that could improve their quality of life and have legitimate scientific research behind it. There definitely is a lot of hokum out there and there are bad practitioners but you shouldn’t write off all complementary and alternative medicine practices, especially given some of the huge institutional flaws in modern western medicine.

zoologicallyobsessed:

pseudo-medicine or alternative medicine by definition is “medicine practices that 

includes practices claimed to have the healing effects of medicine but which are disproven, unproven, impossible to prove, or are excessively harmful in relation to their effect; and where the scientific consensus is that the therapy does not, or can not, work because the known laws of nature are violated by its basic claims”

So you’re wrong    

skarchomp:

hey I kind of hate this new trend of “popular artists gets revealed as a terf and people defend them because ‘oh but their art’s so good uwu!’” like news flash: no art in history has ever been or ever will be good enough to justify bigotry you fucking brain donors
