“To JK Rowling, from Cho Chang” by Rachel Rostad
Regardless of your opinion on the Harry Potter books (I’ve been madly in love with them since way back in elementary), you should watch this video. Be sure to actually listen to the poet and not immediately jump to the defense of the books that you love. It’s okay to love something and acknowledge that it has flaws.
Watch it, it’s absolutely brilliant.
holy fucking shit i cant even
DAMN I got chills!
#i actually want the meta about this #i know it’s all a silly joke but i am into it
GOD YOU ARE NOT ALONE IN THIS, you are so not alone in this at all, holy fuck. because, okay: this thing about the kenneth-is-immortal shit is that any way you slice it, it’s fascinating? like, silly joke or not, the least interesting interpretation of this is a character that has delusions of being an immortal/superhuman being, possibly an angel, whose most pressing interest is television???? WHICH IS, IN AND OF ITSELF, FASCINATING. you could do a whole thing about how and why it came to be that this person, despite believing himself to be ageless and timeless and possessed of powers without end, chooses to devote himself pretty much exclusively to tv. i would totes watch that show. i would totes read that book.
but that is the least interesting interpretation, and that’s because any other interpretation of this is an immortal/superhuman being whose most pressing interest is television. like. LIKE. i mean, seriously, think of the possibilities: kenneth is an angel trapped on earth, obsessed with television because it’s the closest he can come to observing humanity as a whole, the way he once could! kenneth is an immortal who can’t tell anyone his secret but desperately wants to be discovered, so he hangs around television sets dropping hints because he thinks it’s the most likely place for people to buy into the unbelievable! kenneth is an angel tasked with the divine duty of tracking and influencing human entertainment (and the subsequent breakdown of the bureaucracy of angels in media, and the angel who they report to, and the purpose of their presence)! kenneth is THE SPIRIT OF TELEVISION ITSELF, born when television was and forever working to keep it — and himself — alive!
but, okay, here’s my favorite one: kenneth is an immortal being who feeds on human belief. call him an angel or a god or a scavenger, because really he’s all three — he doesn’t need people to believe in him, specifically. he just needs people to believe in something, because the energy they release when they do is his lifeblood. he’s been alive since the dawn of human existence (“who said i’ve been alive forever”) and he spent centuries starving, developing a dark, hungry edge that’s never quite left him. religion sated him, but never for long; too often he found that people believed less than they said they did, and, anyway, the gods those people prayed to ate most of their energy, leaving him with almost nothing.
and then, one beautiful, brilliant day, he found television. television, created by humans who had no interest in or ability to absorb the belief thrown back at their work; television, constantly updating with new stories, new characters, new ideas for people to become completely absorbed in all the time. he works at NBC because his coworkers genuinely believe in what they do, and because they are, every day, bringing in studio audiences to fall into different storylines, different setups. he’s gone from starvation to gluttony, because now there is nothing but food all the time (but he keeps going to church, because there’s nothing with quite the same flavor as fervent religious belief). and that’s why he’s cheerful all the time, and happy to help, and completely committed to being there for tv, no matter what his position is: because at all times inside 30 rockefeller plaza, somebody is feeding him.
i legit had no idea this was more than just a throw-away joke at the end of the series. HOLY SHIT

Alkali metals are soft metals that can be cut with a knife. The air makes the metal corrode- so sometimes they are kept under oil to stop them from corroding. Their chemical reactions with water can be violent.
SCIENCE.

my mother cleaned out her classroom last month, and while my father was driving a carload of 4th grader crap home he gradually became aware of a high pitched mumbling from the back. he stopped the car, got out, rummaged aroudn, and discovered my mother had not only found my old furby, she’d put new batteries in it and taken it into school, then put it upside down in the car to take home.
i told my mother i’ve had nightmares a lot like that.

Hi there!
I write repeatedly asking tumblr to stop the numerous amounts of harassment that I get on my blog. I only respond in kind to INITIAL harassing remarks, and you refuse to stop those people from bothering me.I am a human being, with limits. These people make up brand new accounts after I’ve blocked them to troll me, and your people do nothing. People post nigger, have blogs with the word nigger, subject me to death threats, black hatred, send violent anonymous messages to anyone who follows me on not just tumblr, but SEVERAL WEBSITES. One person I follow, curiouslycool, has been verbally assaulted by the people who reported me several times, with people telling her to get raped by a chainsaw, that they would come and rape her with their “white dicks” and that her “nigger cunt” just needed some “white cum” to fix it. If you expect that I will not respond to these people as they respond to me, you’re out of your mind.Stop them, and I will stop. If you have to take me off of tumblr because I refuse to let a bunch of racist people harass me with no reaction, do so.
Otherwise go back to being useless support like you always have been, until white people complain, giving no care to your PoC base who gets abused every single day on the site.RileyDTWPSTumblr “SUPPORT” strikes again. It’s almost like a pattern, isn’t it?
This is complete fucking bullshit, what the flying fuck.
WELL TUMBLR, LOOKS LIKE YOU’RE GONNA HEAR MY LOUDASS MOUTH TODAY.
SERIOUSLY?
SERIOUSLY RIGHT NOW?
SUPPORT FOR WHITE PEOPLE, AIN’T THAT RIGHT YOU CUNTS?
Yeah so, this is happening and is totally unacceptable.
This is ABHORRANT. What the fuck.

Oh geeze. A while ago I wanted to enter the homestuck music contest, then I realized the type of music I make and the type of music Hussie likes are, to put it lightly, not very similar. But I still had the idea for Aradia and all her clones singing an Andrews Sisters style, creepy accapella thing so I…made a rough of it anyway.
Yeah…not sure why I’m sharing except if I weren’t me I’d want me to post it. Unfortunately I am me, so…dang.
Yes. Hell yes. Hell fucking yes.
WANT A DL NOW.
Cupertino high school student Angela Zhang may know the cure for cancer: As a freshman, she started reading doctoral-level papers on biological engineering. By her sophomore year in high school, she managed to convince Stanford University to let her use their laboratories, and by junior year, she began doing her own research that led her to develop a recipe that boggles even her chemistry teacher.
Zhang’s recipe won her a $100,000 award at a national science competition sponsored by Siemens.
Her method of curing cancer by aiming an infrared light at mutated cells killed cancer in mice; it will be a few more years before it can be determined if the method works in humans. Nevertheless, Zhang’s three years of research is considered a breakthrough. [CBS News]
