I hope a fox kit plays on my grave

i have an ancient box camera from the late 40s. takes 120 film. Absolutely unfair good images out of this thing.

This is the 1940s equivalent of a disposable Kodak, it’s terrible but because modern film stock is so fucking good it just rips absolute ass. No I don’t have any pictures they’re scanning shut up.

the shutter speed is "yes" and the aperture is "sure, why not"

it turns out when you have a negative that's 60x70 mm that you don't really need the world's best glass

Beeg Pitchoor

this just isn't fair. this is like a toddler walking into a chess tournament and beating a high schooler

#JESUS THAT DYNAMIC RANGE!!!!

Fun fact: This is all on expired lomography metropolis. if it were in-date film it'd look even better. I dont have any in-date metropolis in 120 but i have a roll of it in 35mm that i'm gonna load up once i've finished my current roll of Kodak ColorPlus 200 (cheap color film that looks better than it should)

Here's Catlabs X Film 100 in 35 though, which is kinda similar in terms of range

these are simply stunning, thank you for sharing these

Something I'm fond of saying is "The villain drives the plot but the hero sets the tone." Something that's very important about this is that the resolution to the conflicts presented need to match the hero's tone. If your story doesn't believe problems can be solved the way the hero wants to solve them... why is this the hero?

If you want your problems to be solved with brutal catharsis, then your hero should be someone who believes in brutal catharsis.

If you want your problems to be solved with forgiveness and reconciliation, then your hero should be someone who believes in forgiveness and reconciliation.

They don't have to begin there. This can be something they come around to over the course of the story, as they grow and change per their character arc. But by the time of their ultimate encounter with the villain, their values should be the values that drive the story forward.

There's this thing in D&D that some DMs do. Where, when you roll enough damage to deplete the monster's hit points, they'll turn to you and say, "That's a kill. Describe for the group how you take the monster down." And you're allowed to come up with some cool maneuver or something that your character did in order to deliver the finishing blow.

The hero's ultimate triumph over the villain is a lot like this. More than any other part of the story, this moment is their apotheosis. It should be a celebration of everything they are and everything they stand for.

You have defeated the villain; Now describe for the group what form that victory takes.

“Rayban charity glasses event” is a scam don’t click any link in a post that says that.

Old tumblr users remember this scam back when it first went out.

Also no, this isn’t a joke. This phishing scam is 100% running its course again so watch out for your mutuals long abandoned accounts suddenly posting it. Please make everyone aware of it since most users here are newbies who have not seen it before!

Cory Booker has been talking in the senate for over 20 hours now

He’s not filibustering. He’s protesting the current administration.

For those of you from outside the US or those of you who didn’t pay attention in government class, in the US senate there’s really no limit to the amount of time a senator can speak. So sometimes if they don’t want a bill to pass they just. Don’t stop talking. To hopefully get past the deadline to vote on a bill. This is called filibustering.

Senator Cory Booker isn’t doing that. He’s disrupting “the normal business of the United States Senate for as long as I am physically able”. Just in protest. This doesn’t usually happen.

He’s less than 20 minutes away from breaking the record of the longest speech given on the senate floor

Cory Booker has officially broken Strom Thurmond’s record for longest speech on the senate floor and he’s still going

For those of you wondering what he’s been talking about this whole time, his staff wrote down a bunch of stuff for him to read like stories from people across the political spectrum opposed to what the administration is doing. He’s also been telling personal anecdotes about meeting important civil rights leaders and other democratic senators have been pausing him for “questions” but the questions have been as long as a small speech and have both served the purpose of giving him a second to sit down and updating him on the news that he’s been missing while he’s been talking.

He has yielded the floor at 25 hrs and 4 mins. His eyes are so wide they look like they’re going to bug out of his skull so I don’t blame him for stopping. He said to go out and get in some good trouble.

Addition for those unaware: Cory Booker is black. Strom Thurmond set the previous record about 70 years ago in protest of civil rights. Booker spent much of the time I was watching talking about the importance of working together for the people and the idea that it's not "left versus right but right versus wrong."

The new record speech is on the right side of history.

Have you ever looked closely at a car windshield?

The edge of the glass is painted where it is glued to the car but it has these small dots between the clear and painted glass.

These are there for a reason. When the sun hits the glass the painted areas and the clear areas will absorb heat at different rates. This causes the glass to expand and contract differently putting stress on the glass.

These dots help the glass to warm up more evenly over a larger area so the glass does not suffer stress that could cause it to spontaneously explode.

Fun fact: the Tesla cybertruck doesn’t have these.

Yes, the glass will spontaneously crack or explode in the sun.

Scrolling TikTok bc I have not self control and god do I just need some comedy in my life.

Came upon one that made me think about how it’s fairly common in DpxDc crossover fandom that Danny would be thrilled to atop doing Heroics after being adopted into the Batfam bc

“oh thank god there are so many competent vigilantes here. No ghosts? I’m just gonna be a civilian now thanks.”

But; and especially in fics where ghosts fight as a cultural thing, I give it a Week. Five days minimum and up to fourteen before this is Danny latched onto Batman’s cape in the Bat Cave.

I guess this is how Danny will have to let them know he knows about the whole vigilante thing in one of these au's I have bubbling on my writing desk.

Batman; going over pre-patrol briefing: anything else we need to cover? Danny; who's been tucked up under Batman's cape as Fenton this whole time: (as above video) Mother. Mother, I crave violence. The Batfam instantly leaps to momentary chaos at being actually snuck up on, which isn't unusual for Danny, but him being in the CAVE is.

I'm just picturing that Danny, teenager and chaos gremlin that he is, upon being caught under the cape actually, out loud says "Mother, Mother I crave violence".

If he's newly adopted to the batfam he's probably been referring to batman as Bruce or even Mr. Wayne.

This is the first time he called him by a parental title.

There's the initial chaos of course but afterwards Bruce is a exasperated and amused but also a tiny bit emotional about Danny calling him Mother.

Danny keeps calling him Mother sometimes as a joke. Then shortens it to Mom and it just slowly becomes their thing.

"No, you can't beat up the goons yet Danny, we have to get intel on the Riddler's plan first."

"But Mooooommm!"

Translation: “I am fucking tired of the soviet car industry” *the standard effect of touching a soviet car* *laughs in russian*

I can’t get over the sheer poetry of how the car falls apart - the perfect chain reaction escalating as it travels round.

This is the single funniest video on the Internet

No, it’s even funnier!

He goes “вы заебали на советский автопром”, which is roughly “i’m fucking tired of you (getting) at the soviet car industry”. So he actually says “yall fucking wrong about soviet cars being bolt buckets!” and hits the car as proof of its durability and then it falls apart.

His intonatin gives off a slight hint that he 100% knows what’s gonna happen and is being sarcastic. So very likely he’s not even annoyed, he knows what’s about to follow, laugs about it, and then does it.

Which is even funnier!

ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME

I think I find this post every April Fools Day and I am so happy that I do

I don’t know how I forget about this every year but I love it

Update from the man himself

The Porn Guy aka The Nice Guy aka The Canadian side of Pornhub aka SFW Pornhub’s REAL NAME is Ryan Creamer. No joke, that is legit his real name.

Also this.

Which led him to this.

Bless this man.

I can appreciate him and the service he’s providing independently of the shitshow that is the platform he’s hosted on.

He remains just as funny and weird on other platforms dw

By the way, the topic he was presenting was

‘Can I get an Honorary Degree if I Just Ask Really Nicely’

People who hate Frodo Baggins are my enemy. "He didn't do anything and was useless"--yeah, okay, so what you're not understanding is that he was the sacrificial lamb. He endured physical, mental, and emotional torment that got worse and worse as his will broke. Everyone knew this. EVERYONE KNEW THIS. That's why everyone was devastated about it. Because Frodo was the most innocent among them, that was the entire point. He represented ordinary peaceful people being destroyed by the horrors of war. And as a hobbit he also represented some of the last vestiges of magic in what was basically a post magic apocalypse.

Frodo was basically an innocent puppy thrown into the Torment Nexus so that EVERYONE ELSE could maybe have a hope of surviving. And he did that willingly. HE DID IT OF HIS OWN FREE WILL, KNOWING IT WOULD RUIN HIM.

Frodo haters won't see the light of heaven

in light of the fact that tumblr has bunglr'd and forgot its own dedication to the bit on april fools i declare a bit war. the person who comes up with the silliest bit to make into our own goddamn april fools gimmick gets to be the bit monarch for the whole of 2025. even if they don't want to be. go.
