tubby ran out of wet food and i couldn’t get to the pet store before lunch so i had to improvise and made her a scrambled egg
she is intensely dubious about this non-salmon food item
despite how much she loves eggs when i’m eating them, she had no interest in eggs that had been prepared especially for her. fortunately we were able to escape our driveway and get her preferred salmon and gravy, and while we were out i bought a frame for the @viv-draws print i bought her
her standards have finally been met
a couple of people have expressed concern about tubby breaking her dishes, so i just want to note that sometimes when the cups are misaligned in their tray they wobble a little and make a tiny clinking sound. when this happens instead of eating directly out of her dish, tubby will use her paw to bring the food to her mouth in order to prevent any unseemly noises.
Fun story: One of the first things I was taught as an astronomy student is that, if you want to be a dick to someone giving a presentation, ask them “and how do the magnetic fields play into this?” and they will invariably say “fuck you I don’t know” because no one understands magnetic fields they are black magic.
Pure utter bullshit. Electromagnetic forces somehow outstrip gravitic forces in strength by an obscene factor, for no reason I can comprehend and it bothers me.
I love magnets
One, that gif showing the Curie temperature is really cool.
Two, you don’t understand, magnetic fields are the bane of my existance and I have a masters dissertation about them. I studied how magnetic fields develop in low mass stars and every single meeting with my supervisor ended in some conversation about how stupid magnetism is.
“Oh yeah and this is effected by the magnetic field strength…”
“But why?”
“God knows, I don’t have a clue.”
Was literally said to me by a professor who has spent 20 years of his life looking at magnetism in stars.
ALSO:
“Don’t ask why, we don’t know. Maybe magnetism? Who knows anything about magnetism.” – My Stellar Physics professor when asked about certain processes in stellar formation, something he has been studying for 10 years.
Like we know so little about that it’s actually funny.
Fact: any legend about a holy sword can be improved by 200% by replacing the sword with an axe and making no other changes.
Lady of the lake tosses Axcalibur at King Arthur, killing him instantly
There’s another reblog of this post that implies that knights who wield axes are secretly just lumberjacks, and it combined with this one in my brain to create an AU where the Lady of the Lake is, like, a flannel-wearing lumberjack who lives by a lake. Her role in the story is otherwise unchanged.
the lesbian of the lake
The lesbian of the lake, her arm clad in the finest shimmering flannel, held aloft Axcalibur from the bosom of the water
