So the other day I learnt that not all the orcs in Middle Earth were interested in joining The Bad Guys™ and actually just tried to make it as traders and fishermen?? So I wanted to draw a happy lil orc fishing. Good job, buddy.
Mongolians are cool because they’ve merged their traditional and modern ways of life so rather than having poverty due to losing all their important skills they just live in their yurts with their cows and 827474874mbs internet
sure their GDP in dollars is low but when you can survive like your anscestors did it doesn’t mean anything, nothing wrong with adding a motorcycle and wifi into the mix
Everyone should live like their ancestors did 1000 years ago but with the addition of wifi tbh
Adapt. Survive.
this is the single most inspiring piece of information I have yet to come across in all my moments in this world
Not wanting to start a discourse, but wanted to post this link about how much disrespect the field of veterinary medicine has. September is national suicide awareness month and veterinarians are pretty much at the top of the list for suicides now. It’s not a great title to have. If you ever wonder why that is, take a peek at this article. I could have written it, word for word.
Don’t get me wrong, I have a lot of *wonderful* clients. One elderly couple bakes us brownies every other week. One of my clients just sent us a ~$150 flower arrangement. I have die hard clients who love me and whom I love back.
But in those 11 years, I have definitely witnessed a shift in perception of the field. And I just lost yet another colleague after someone started a media storm against her resulting in loss of her business, death threats against her and her staff, and finally her taking her own life.
So if you love or appreciate your veterinarian (or any professional you work with routinely, could be a nurse or physical therapist, whatever), let them know. It costs nothing to be kind.
Rewatched natm with my roommate and damn I had to try so hard to hide the stupid gay smile on my face everytime I saw these two’s interaction:)
And…it has been more than ten years since the first movie I think? But the whole ‘exhibits in the museum come alive at night’ thing is still one of the most beautiful fairy tales in my heart… maybe I’ll never grow up😔
I ship it so hard and I’ve only ever seen the first movie.
Expository dialogue techniques that don’t rely on characters randomly explaining things to each other that they should already know, but do rely on your characters being obnoxious gits:
1. Character A fucks something up hilariously; character B upbraids them at great length about exactly what they did wrong.
2. Character A wildly misreads a situation; character B corrects their misconceptions.
3. Character A tells a complicated and implausible lie; character B points out the obvious holes in their story.
4. Character A can’t find their destination; character B provides rambling and discursive directions.
5. Character A has a straightforward question; character B requests a series of extremely pedantic clarifications.
