[Video Description: a lynx casually walks down a snow covered bank, onto a log and reaches a frozen river. The lynx takes two steps; the ice cracks loudly. Instantly the lynx stands still. It then looks around and then leaps. The lynx makes a landing on the other side of the river, a faint crack can be heard. It continues on its way unfazed. /End VD.]
That's a guy who's fallen through the ice before, lmao.

I wish I could fear, because I know I’m supposed to fear this, but I’m kinda into it.
Wow ok lyrics are no longer below the cut so I’m just gonna-
Kermit: it’s the muppets show!
Female Chorus:
It’s time to burn the incense,
It’s time to slay the sheep,
It’s time to wake the muppets from a thousand years of sleep!
Male Chorus:
It’s time to raze existence,
It’s time to banish light,
It’s time to call the void in on the muppets show tonight!
Statlor: So tell us, where’s your god now?
Waldorf: I guess you’ll never know
Statlor: your life becomes a torture
Both: when we begin the show!
Chorus: And now let’s get things started!
Audience: Why don’t you get things started?
Kermit: It’s time to get things started,
All:
On the aberrational, no-salvational, incantational, muppetational,
This will be your final muppets show!
Everyone who likes this should listen to the pod-musical The Fall Of The House Of Sunshine, trust me just this once.
something i like about disco elysium is that although it has an obvious viewpoint (if you think the game isnt explicitly communist you're just wrong i'm afraid) it doesn't make the proponents of the other ideologies big silly goofballs to make this point--joyce and kim are wrong, both morally and factually, but they are wrong eloquently and compellingly. even measurehead, in the final cut, gets a long and compelling (and wrong! and fascist! to be clear!) monologue where he makes the case for his ideology.
like it compares very favorably to a trend i see a lot in media that wants to Say Something About Fascism, which is to have a guy walk on and say 'im fasho the fascist!' and then he slips on a banana peel and goes 'bwagh!'. like--that's not a critique of fascism. you've made the fascist look bad, yeah, but not by attacking any substantial part of their politics or actions. anyone could fall over and go 'bwagh'. it's not even bad critique, it's just not critique, it's painting a groucho marx moustache and glasses onto a photo.
[Text ID: #on that note: gary the cryptofascist setting up mobility accommodations at his apartment for lena #was also something that was interesting to me #guy who's a cartoonish and comically pathetic racist jackass is also the only person in martinaise who bothers accommodating lena #that fascinated me bc it added a dimension to the character that i think would not have normally existed #but was a lot truer to life #and made for much more interesting critique #bc there is no amount of wheelchair ramps that would make gary less of a fascist #or make his rhetoric less materially damaging to lena and disabled ppl in general #it just means he's capable of doing the bare minimum of giving her physical access to his home #and the fact that he clears that low low bar and no one else in town does makes another interesting critique #and also highlights how he only extends that kind of humanity to lena and morell bc they're white #idk im just rambling now but i just found gary and measurehead interesting #disco elysium End ID]
See, in the correct genre and the correct context these are all absolutely brilliant.
These could be Douglas Adams quotes.
I wish I wrote 90% of these, outstanding.
hard agree on douglas adams - admittedly I was thinking the humming birds and duck ones made me think of pratchett but adams feels like an even better fit
sorry what
That header photo doesn’t do the dragon justice. (For shame!). Here’s NASA’s own photo:
