O domina candida scientiae, valere iubeo and Goodbye, and thank you for your time
Portal 2 in Art Nouveau style, illustrations by Jacques Freischutz
Every time I think “Oh, Mucha-style art nouveau is dead, I’m so tired of it, I will NEVER see another piece I like again,” I KEEP FINDING AMAZING THINGS ON MY DASH.
Babies I’m sorry, I won’t leave you again.
I’m sure I’m breaking All Of The Rules when it comes to hand-lettering, but I’m having fun and think it’s cute so hush up.
Also grabbed some sweet sweet brushes, one of which makes an appearance in my excuse for backgrounds, so I’ma play with those a bit.
Yesssss… welcome to the Unholy Cult of Hand Lettering.
I can’t stop listening, it’s like Blue Sky is sucker-punching me in the face with old memories and a fist full of Chelley. I don’t even like Chelley that much, but the fanfiction is so well-written and this song is so “pick-you-up” in a way that it makes the day seem magical. I may sound like a complete tool, but it does.
This song is magical – it’s cheery hopefulness can invigorate you and ease your troubled mind, as well as make you sob quietly in a corner because omg blue sky feelings :D
I’ve always loved this song, but associating it with Blue Sky gives me an incredible sense of warm contentment, every time I hear it :)
Oops there I go listening to the Fanmix again. #sorrynotsorry
There was a cosplay group who did these costumes (and a matching pink one for Serenity) with the idea that these were their senshi forms during the Silver Millennium times. I love that idea, and I’ve formulated the headcanon that their fuku are different during each reincarnation cycle. (In the case of Crystal Tokyo fuku being the same as present-day, my argument is that Usagi is Neo Queen Serenity, as she is in the manga, IIRC, so it’s technically the same reincarnation cycle.)
This pitch sounds very Apature-Sciency to me. Apply at your own peril! For science!
Want a cool new job? On Mars? The catch, it’s a one-way trip.
Awwww, I went to the website and registered to see what the application was like, but you have to fork over some cash (in my, USian case, $38) before you can even see it.
I remember when Deep Impact and Armageddon and Volcano and Dante’s Peak came out, but I thought this wasn’t still a thing. I was wrong.
This is great as it means I can stop referring solely to “the great Armageddon/Deep Impact collective unconscious explosion of 1998”.
I knew this was a thing. I knew.
Also known as Dueling Movies. (TVTropes link!)
Hey, Toei? That sound you hear? IT’S ME CRYING OVER MY BROKEN DREAMS.
I just really hope they don’t pull the series all together. That would crush my heart into tiny pieces.
I encourage everyone to read the (very short) article before sobbing their eyes out.
If by some chance the new Sailor Moon anime does not happen I am ninety percent sure the Sailor Moon fandom might just destroy the entire world.
All the other fandoms will be powerless to stop us.

Why do people still refer to doing things off a computer “real life”?
In this day and age are computers still considered such fantastic technology that they don’t seem real?
DAMN, TWINS. It’s way too fucking early on a Saturday to be gettin’ this deep.
