favorite thing about tolkien fans is how y’all are like “now this idea would’ve had the old professor tolkien absolutely foaming at the mouth in rage ….. which is exactly why i have written 200k words of it and made art for it and firmly hold it as canon”
y’alls tags only further convince me of this
a few more honorable mentions for your viewing pleasure
The Window Socket offers a neat way to harness solar energy and use it as a plug socket. So far we have seen solutions that act as a solar battery backup, but none as a direct plug-in. Simple in design, the plug just attaches to any window and does its job intuitively.

I’m on mobile so the last thing won’t load but I’m gonna bet everything that it’s the squid ward “future” thing
So about this project. For awhile now I’ve noticed almost every single time I see a darker skinned black woman “going viral”, she’s half naked, oiled up, and/or sexualized in some way shape or form. It’s very rarely ever “Look at this amazing dark skinned woman who accomplished this thing.” Or “Look at her smile, she’s gorgeous”. Please don’t misinterpret what I’m saying. There is nothing wrong with darker women and black women in general being free and expressive about their sexuality and provocative features. BUT that is NOT ALL they are. They are so much more than sexual beings, but for some reason, that seems to be almost the only thing that grabs viral appreciation. So here’s my attempt to have darker skinned black women go viral for just being cute, creative, stylish, bubbly, beautiful, and black. Aside from the videographer EVERYONE involved in this project IS A BLACK WOMAN. I hope you guys like it. I ask that if you enjoyed this and agree with my objective, share it with a few people please.
A special thank you to @aggienes, I couldn’t have done this without her.
Zofia Posmysz’s mugshot after being arrested for distributing anti-Nazi leaflets. She was sent to Auschwitz but survived 2 concentration camps and today is 94 .
Here she is currently. Don’t let her name or her face be forgotten.
what you’d think the ancient roman republic’s political system is like: a complex but generally functional collection of politicians working together to help rome thrive; after all, the romans took great pride in their republic!
what it’s actually like (roman millionaire voice) mom said it’s my turn on the consulship
It’s wild how like… JKR is so skilled at so many aspects of writing, especially in little character moments, but when it comes to implications of throwaway lines she just… not a SINGLE thought.
Like in Chamber of Secrets, when Harry is talking to Tom / Voldemort and is like, you Framed Hagrid, Tom is like, yeah he was always trying to raise monsters,
he says that Hagrid tried to raise werewolf cubs under his bed like…
oh you mean like, children? like human children?
apparently this was retconned in the pottermore to where if werewolves fuck while shifted (or some shit) they give birth to regular wolf pups that are just smarter than normal wolves
