much to think about
Were you able to find the tennis documentary?
I did find it, but couldn’t get a version with captions. haven’t watched yet, but hopefully this weekend! :)
You Are Not Wasting Time; It Was Given To You As A Gift, Freely and Generously; Is Rain Wasted Because It Falls On Gardens, Grass, Disgruntled Birds, and Umbrellas All The Same?
Steve, Thor, Clint, and Natasha get together and watch Oppenheimer FIRST. Clint dips. Tony and Bruce join and they all (minus Clint) watch Barbie. The only way I can see Clint watching it is if his wife wants to go see it.
I watched mission impossible it was not even a little bit gay. Sad! Oh well, there’s other movies
Elton John without the glasses is the most fucked up part. He literally looks like just some guy.
thanos was lowkey the worst villain in the entire mcu
also he and the avengers were so unimaginative. they had the six most powerful objects in the entire universe and thanos used them to kill half the organisms and half their food source (stupid and boring). and the avengers were like “let’s just reintroduce everybody into a post apocalyptic society and make no other changes <3” (also stupid and boring)
We’re not broken, so please come home (Complete)

Steve’s rocking back on his heels, asking, “So, when should we go out again? Full disclosure, I don’t want to wait another two weeks to go out again. So, are you free on Friday?” There’s only one thing Tony wants to do. He wants to kiss Steve.
Tony takes a step forward, telegraphing his intent by placing his hands on Steve’s chest. He feels Steve’s breath hiccup in surprise underneath his palms. But Steve doesn’t move away. Instead, his hands move. One takes hold of Tony’s hand and the other moves up to cup Tony’s face. Eyes going half-mast, Tony holds his breath in anticipation. Inhale; Steve’s leaning in. Exhale; Steve’s eyes are closing. Inhale; contact.
Steve’s lips are soft. There’s just enough pressure to make tingles race down Tony’s spine and his fingers tighten around Steve’s. His free hand slides down, slipping under Steve’s coat to rest against his waist. Tony needs more contact. He needs this kiss to be more than sweet. He applies more pressure, parting his lips slightly in invitation to Steve but Steve doesn’t take it. Instead, he keeps the kiss gentle. Breaking away only to come back in a heartbeat, lips capturing Tony’s bottom lip for a second before letting go.
Tony gasps, fingers tightening in Steve’s shirt. He follows the gentle pressure Steve’s hand applies, tilting his head to the side. Distressingly, Steve’s kisses move away from his lips. He nuzzles Tony’s beard, jawline, and finally the curve of his ear before he teasingly asks, “Is that a yes?”
“It’s a hell yes,” Tony swears, voice rough.
It’s been a long, long time coming but I’ve finally completed sharing my nanowrimo 2019 project. I had commissioned this piece by @mirthandstar years ago to go with and I’m very happy that I can share that as well!
I hope you give the fic a try <3 Looking forward to seeing you on AO3 :)
I worked very hard on this
Why are people reblogging this fucking garbage again
got any facts relating to forest fires?
for the past 50 million years or so, forest fires have actually been a good thing!
the occasional fire acts as a sort of cleaning service, consuming all of the built-up flammable material on the forest floor, and clearing the understory of built-up vegetation and recycling their nutrients directly into the soil while leaving mature trees (mostly) unharmed.
hell, some trees even evolved to NEED those fires, and can’t spread their seeds without them!
it turns out that if you artificially suppress any and all fires for 60 years, none of the flammable forest material gets consumed, and it builds up to RIDICULOUS levels.
this in turn means that when a fire finally does break through this artificial control, it finds several orders of magnitude more fuel than it would have at any time in the past 50 million years, and goes from “your friendly neighborhood cleaning service” to “the autonomous street cleaner vehicles have become sentient and are bearing down on your house at highway speeds”.
FUCK
nothing has evolved to survive fires at this completely ludicrous level of intensity, because there haven’t BEEN fires this bonkers in literally millions of years! instead of cleaning out the forest understory, these fires are consuming the entire forest ecosystem whole and leaving nothing but scorched earth behind.
climate change sure isn’t helping either on this front, and if burnt forests aren’t replanted and existing forests aren’t carefully cleared of the literally decades of flammable brush they’ve accumulated, the forest ecosystems will continue to burn, and won’t return.
instead, what was once a lush forest will repopulate as grasslands, and all the animals that once lived there will have to find new jobs in a hurry.
so I guess the moral here is, let your dang woods burn once in a while, or your grandchildren might live to regret it.

it was a mistake naming my fic after that song, i’ve had it stuck in my head for the last 24 hours
