I was spectating someone and they died and i don’t think it could’ve been in a funnier position and with a better character
looks like he needed healing

lawful good: sleeping with fan off and blanket off when its hot
chaotic evil: sleeping with fan on and blanket on when its hot
chaotic neutral; sleep with covers on and fan off when it’s hot.
trump: *pulls out of the paris agreement, severely harming the current global efforts to combat global warming because he’s either too fucking stupid or too evil to see that it’s a big deal and also starts the process of wiping out net neutrality, an objectively horrible thing for everone that isn’t a massive telecom company executive and will cause untold levels of damage on our ability to communicate through the internet*
media:
trump: *makes a spelling mistake on twitter*
media: OMG have you heard of
COVFEFE??????????????????????????????
look i really hate to be that person who takes anything seriously on this hellsite but i’ve had it up to about here with the “trump is an evil mastermind distracting us from the real problems instead of an unstable, senile old man with a tenuous grip on reality” conspiracy theories so i’ve just gotta do it today

Programmable robotics toy from SONY uses small minimalist blocks with personality, allowing to be creative with papercraft:
Another video here better presents how you can use a controller and even create your own sumo robots:
From Spoon & Tamago:
Build, play, inspire. That’s the idea behind Sony’s new toy for kids, designed to inspire a future generation of robotics engineers. Toio is the result of 5 years of research into developing a toy that’s simple enough for kids to use, but also sophisticated enough to create a figurative sandbox where kids can explore the inner-workings of robotics engineering.
Toio, at first glance, is stunningly simple: the core of the toy is just 2 white cubes with wheels. But don’t be fooled by their appearance. The tiny cubes pack a whole lot of tech. They respond to motion, are able to detect the exact location of the other, and can be programmed but also remote controlled.
You can find out more at the official Toio website here

Does anyone remember this old Cartoon Network bumper, where the Powerpuff Girls help save Wonder Woman and Aquaman?
And it had that blatant adult joke at the end!
I do.
I sure do. I storyboarded it!
It was very enjoyable to watch =D
The (lack of) reaction to Karkat’s blood color was interesting.
His friends seemed to have treated it in with a sort of don’t ask don’t tell kind of attitude. Like, Karkat’s blood color is wrong and mutant in troll society, but they didn’t want to hurt Karkat because of it, in anyway. Even beyond the obvious killing reaction that many could assume his friends wouldn’t do, none of them did anything at all, like demand he step down from being the leader or something. They didn’t try to change anything at all.
By the same token, though, they didn’t really comfort him about it. Besides Terezi, none of his friends talked about his blood to Karkat directly. No words of comfort, no ‘I don’t want to kill you’ or anything. It was like, as long as Karkat didn’t bring it up and kept hiding behind grey, nobody else wanted to bring it up and mess up whatever tenuous social order they had going.
Of course, a major factor in how this was handled probably had to do with how everyone found out. Karkat didn’t tell anyone his blood color directly, and kept pretending no one knew. The other trolls presumably found out by seeing dead alternate Karkats in dream bubbles during or immediately after the game. So not only was the timing really inconvenient (most of them weren’t going to bring something like blood color up in the middle of the apocalypse), but they didn’t actually see alpha Karkat bleeding. There was no defining moment of ‘hey Karkat’s bleeding, I can see his blood right there, guess I can’t just ignore it.’ They could ignore it, and they did.
I want to know what Karkat’s friends would have done if they found out some other way, like if Karkat told them (would he ever tell someone by choice) or if they saw him bleeding in person.
I think about this a fuck ton actually
the only character i can think of who would actually be a major ass about his blood would be eridan and maybe equius, though karkat was gamzees best friend so equius might choose to ignore it out of respect to gamzee.
