with animorphs on the rise i wanna say just one minor detail that still irks me to this day
in one of the books they have to retrieve some tech that would turn off the pacifism setting on their OP robot friends. the tech is inside a room that has been filtered of all photons and is covered in thin threads like battery free laser detection. The way they describe it is that even the slightest vibration on the threads or a single photon in the room. Their solution is to become bats and use echolocation to navigate through the room
ECHOLOCATION USES SOUND BOUNCING OFF THE THINGS. THEY WOULD HAVE CAUSED THE THREADS TO VIBRATE. THE ALARMS SHOULD HAVE BEEN TRIGGERED AT THE FIRST SCREECH. IT STILL PISSES ME OFF OVER A DECADE LATER.
Have fun in the war dumbass I’ll be at home fucking military wives
Damn. Good way to get your fucking windows kicked in
shut the fuck up and raise my son bootlicker
All fun and games until someone with 3 confirmed kills shows up at your doorstep with a baseball bat
im not at my house tho, im at yours with your wife
But he’s got shooters all over the world 🌎 even when he’s away
just shot a load in his wife
You ungrateful asshole. My bf might be fighting for your freedom and you’re here mocking him for keeping your pathetic ass safe from the threats of the world. If a war comes to our country, we’re not saving you, you dumbass ungrateful fuck up of a human being.
Your bf is fighting for oil and killing civilians and probably cheating on you he’s a scumbag, which is why I just fucked his mom to make a better son
The fool taunts the hungry dogs but the dogs have their day and the fool becomes a feast
your girl boutta be the feast soon as you get deployed boot boy
So apparently Monster Hunter World blocks me from using the title “KO Queen” by locking the word Queen behind an extremely arbitrary and tedious challenge
You really out here telling a hammer main to hit the head
Flash bombs, remove the tail and break the wings

You really out here telling a hammer main to cut the tail
I feel like it’s somewhat poetic that the last meme of 2019 is about bringing all the memes back just one last time before the decade ends. Never before have I seen Tumblr come together as much as they are now. Everyone is reblogging their favorite posts and posting their favorite memes in reference to the closing decade. As wild and terrible and beautiful as the internet has been during these last ten years, seeing all the jokes that have come and gone fills me with a sense of nostalgia. That’s the last major thought that I want to get out before the new year. It’s been a wild ride but I’m excited to see what the new decade will bring
me explaining to the other trainers that apricorns are unknown outside of Johto because of deliberate suppression by the Silph and Devon corporations to present artificial pokeballs as the only means of capturing pokemon and establish regional monopolies after they eliminate renewable sources
there’s no pocket for me to BE in, there’s no LOBBYING involved, there’s no SUPPRESSION campaign because you don’t need one! traditional methods suppress themselves when you make modern pokéballs available. you might as well start accusing AT&T of deliberately suppressing the noble traditional art form of the goddamn semaphore.
not to mention OP demonstrates a total lack of understanding of the market realities of the pokéball industry- Silph and Devon are not monopolies, if they weren’t in constant competition their magic monster domination spheres wouldn’t cost two bucks a pop. the ball spec is a public standard, and Bill Masaki’s storage system based on that standard is an open-source project. they’re only the two largest players because they’re able to leverage economies of scale. you still get smaller operations like the Laverre City Poké Ball Factory, with better regional supply chains and local brand recognition, making room for themselves in the market.
sm FUCKING h at y’all granola-crunching conspiracy theorists. you probably also believe Super Potions cause autism.
Ok, but it is a shame that artisanal balls are basically off the market now. Like, you have to ride the monorail and hike through a half dozen routes just to find someone willing to sell you a Fast Ball. Believe me, when your boss at the power plant needs five Electrodes by Tuesday you are not going to want to make the trip to Alola; you’re going to head on down to the Mart and get some Ultra Balls, which will do the trick but aren’t well tailored to the job.
I’m with you that modern catching techniques are better, not to mention more humane, but there genuinely is a loss from more niche balls becoming harder to find. Maybe someday the long slowpoketail of consumer demand will be met, but I wouldn’t hold my breath for that Shellder.
In universe discourse is the most RIVETING shit possible, dude. I would read HOURS of in universe Pokemon discourse, god, seriously.
I am Silver Tongue, I am an artist. I have many characters and you can check out my art in the art tag. I occasionally practice witchcraft though I don't do anything too complicated. I am girl 2 and don't know what else to put here.
