I feel this deeply. I love all you little weirdos.
Maurice Sendak got a letter from a kid, sent him back a little drawing of a Wild Thing. Kid's his mother wrote back to say the kid was so pleased with the drawing he ate it.
Maurice Sendak considered that the highest compliment he'd ever gotten.
I was *just* about to repost with this story! I love the feral comments/eating art, they're some of the best encouragement.
i had a vision ( ̄▽ ̄*)ゞ honestly im not too happy abt how this turned out but ive worked too hard not to post it so here we go (quality's a little crunchy sorry)
CW: BLOOD UNDER CUT ↓
(There is an alt version of this under the cut, but it has a little bit of blood in it so !! just to be safe <3)
The Owl House is great because it’s a show where an aroace woman decks a fascist colonizer in the face so hard his nose is broken forever.
Later, said fascist gets beaten into a puddle of goo by a god-like being with he/they pronouns.
Then in the finale, he gets beaten half to death by the ADHD, afro-Latina, gender nonconforming, openly bisexual, protagonist.
Then when he actually dies, it’s because he was boiled alive by the same god-like being that he used to oppress people then was promptly stomped to death by a Latin nonbinary, a bisexual woman who’s an amputee with chronic fatigue, and another god-like being that reproduces asexually.
Send me to Mars with party supplies before next august 5th
No guys you don’t understand.
The soil testing equipment on Curiosity makes a buzzing noise and the pitch of the noise changes depending on what part of an experiment Curiosity is performing, this is the way Curiosity sings to itself.
So some of the finest minds currently alive decided to take incredibly expensive important scientific equipment and mess with it until they worked out how to move in just the right way to sing Happy Birthday, then someone made a cake on Curiosity’s birthday and took it into Mission control so that a room full of brilliant scientists and engineers could throw a birthday party for a non-autonomous robot 225 million kilometres away and listen to it sing the first ever song sung on Mars*, which was Happy Birthday.
This isn’t a sad story, this a happy story about the ridiculousness of humans and the way we love things. We built a little robot and called it Curiosity and flung it into the star to go and explore places we can’t get to because it’s name is in our nature and then just because we could, we taught it how to sing.
That’s not sad, that’s awesome.
*this is different from the first song ever played on mars (Reach For The Stars by Will.I.Am) which happened the year before, singing is different from playing
This is humanity
Happy Birthday, Curiousity.
Happy birthday, Curiosity.




![Two digital drawings depicting a crossover between the spider-man villain Doc Ock and Caroline from portal 2. On the leftmost side of the canvas is Caroline's name written vertically, with the 'O' of her name drawn like the Aperture logo . The middle of the canvas shows caroline with her back towards the screen, her head turned back with a sinister grin. Unlike her original design, she has a deep red 50s style skirt and four Dr. Octopus-esque metal 'tentacles' stick out from her back. The 'tentacles' are made out of long red and black wires, with uniform white sheaths covering them. Some wires are loose and hang out of the tentacles. The ends have three prongs (like claws) with a glowing red diode in the centre. The lower right portion of the canvas shows a headshot of Caroline. She's looking down with a smile and relaxed eyes. A speech bubble is next to her, saying "We're still doing science, sir..." in capitals. The end of one of the metal 'tentacles' is raised up as if a hand is covering her face. The glowing diode in the middle is yellow. The top right shows bold text in capitals, saying "PORTAL 2 / SPIDER-MAN [DOC-OCK]" All of the text shown in this drawing is coloured a deep red, except for "[DOC-OCK], which is coloured yellow.](https://64.media.tumblr.com/6c1fa44cd2fa83699c2a1957a64dfa33/c5526f1c1db23db5-ef/s1280x1920/88e4c7ea8b623b28d31848b493a1163a19d7bae8.png)
