ROBINSON: …But there’s what is sometimes called the “techno-utopianism” of Silicon Valley, which often you posit as totally unrealistic—we’re going to merge with machines and upload our consciousness and do things we don’t know how to do.

But these other things you cover, which we do know how to do, are utopian, crazy, and unrealistic.

GHODSEE: Exactly. It’s like the Coalition for Radical Life Extension, these people out in Silicon Valley who are basically trying to be immortal.

If you’re talking about universal health care, that’s totally utopian, but immortality is totally feasible. It’s a really weird double standard that tech bros and billionaires and Saudi princes get to dream up cities in the desert or like this new plan for a utopian city in Solano County in Northern California, but the rest of us are just going to be stuck with a housing crisis and homelessness. Why can’t ordinary people dream in a way that imagines a better future, rather than just constantly ceding this territory of blue sky thinking to the tech bros and the billionaires and the Saudi princes who have the means, at least theoretically, to realize those dreams?

A parallel universe where urethras work like soda fountains, so one half is the syrup and the other half is the froth.

something something specific species of rove beetle mimic the appearance, odor and behavior of certain species of ants in order to infiltrate colonies

The $5 Challenge – A Stanford Strategy Story…

Back in 2009, Stanford prof Tina Seelig split students in the school of engineering into teams and gave them an envelope containing $5. Teams had only two hours to generate as much money as possible. Each team would get three minutes to present their project to the entire class. Here is Tina’s own article explaining the experience: The $5 Challenge What would be your Strategy? Check out the…

shouto as a dad gets pulled around by his lil girl and tugged into her room and she sits him down in front of her play kitchen and balls up a bunch of different play-doh colors and hands it to him on a plate and he pretends to take a bite and then tells her with a straight face that it's the best meal he's ever eaten

#we talked about this in the group chatty but i cant stop thinking about it akfbtisjakqk 🥺 #he's also the dad to take the play phone from her and have a full conversation #and he talks to her about anything #she asks him why the sky is blue and he explains it to her entirely LOL #'well she asked 🧍‍♂️' #cw children #✿ thoughts: shouto

needle felted lu boys!!!! sky and legend have consistently been some of my favorites in the chain, so it makes sense that they’d be the first ones I’d felt and yeah here they are together!!! :)

#linked universe #lu fanart #linked universe sky #lu sky #lu legend #needle felting #uni art :) #sky was the first detailed person I’ve tried to felt and I think both look pretty good 👍 #these felts are both a few months old by now so I figured I should post them bc idk when I’m making more 😭 #like I started four but uh it’s not going great #he literally haunts my desk guys #also I want to felt some stuff for the holidays too #so idk when I’ll get around to finishing four or other lu guys #maybe I’ll do hyrule or wind bc I want to felt some brown eyes #like ily sky and legend but man I made their eyes so BLUE like yeesh #ALSO DUDE #WAS ANYONE GOING TO TELL ME TO NOT USE ROVING WOOL AS A BASE OR WAS I SUPPOSED TO DO IT WEONG FOR LIKE A YEAR 😭😭😭😭 #LIKE USING COARSER WOOL IS SO MUCH EASIER AND I DIDNT KNOW IT EXISTED #and I have so much roving wool now…. #like im probably going to use it as a base still since I have like 8 ounces of it and like 1 once of the better wool so 😔 #also dude if anyone want to talk about needle felting feel free bc it’s so fun and yeah 👍 #like I’m not an expert but idk it’s fun to talk about it #ASLO IF YOU KNOW WTF WET FELTING IS PLEASE TELL ME

someone must have made a post about this already but. is this, like, a universal metaphysical quality of shopkeepers in dr that seam knows about???

#deltarune #seam #spamton #alternatively: this only happens with shopkeepers who have been... contaminated by the whole gaster / 'darker yet darker' thing #...now i'm thinking about how seam's shop in castle town is (on the inside) an exact copy of seam's shop in card castle #and how the blue sky background from spamton's shop appears behind him at the end of the neo fight if you spare him #hm. hmm hmm hmm.

Blue Skies~!

Recently replayed the portal series after years of not playing it and now I’m sucked back in to my obsession of this series. It’s sooooo gooooood! So I did a doodle to celebrate me getting back intoy obsession with Portal! There’s a bit of a reference to a certain *cough cough* popular fanfic-

#portal #portal 2 #portal chell #portal fanart #portal 2 fanart #chell fanart #companion cube #I love this game so much like holy shit #I use to be freakin obsessed with this game #come home from school to just replay portal 1 & 2 everyday #need to rewatch the musical version and harry101uk’s stuff #definitely need to reread blue sky cause that shit is fire #portal blue sky #the animatic to blue sky was another thing that made me want to be an artist #I can’t listen to Mr. Blue Sky without thinking about portal and then crying from nostalgia #that fanfic and ship had me in a chokehold and still does-

There she was, a little apart from the rest of them, her face upturned and unmistakable even at this distance, small and serious and framed by her dark hair. She saw him looking and raised a hand in a curiously tentative movement, shielding her eyes from the rising sun. He would have given anything just then to be able to do that vortigaunt trick Ellie had described, to get his thoughts down through the space between them, to send this last prayer.

Don't just walk off. Everyone else can, that's fine, I'll live, just- please, not you.

I love arranging it's like YES YES THE OBJECTS ARE IN LOCATIONS

#i do sometimes wish i had a messy apartment and a put together life #anyway i acquired a new favorite object at goodwill yesterday a mug in my favorite color #i was wondering about the previous owner and why they would give up such a nicely shaped mug #was it an older person who passed away or just someone moving? #maybe they're just in a smaller apartment now and they have other mugs they like better #maybe their favorite color isn't sky blue #i wish i knew their whole story #why didn't you like this mug? #i do think about the people who owned my things before me and wish them well sometimes #it's nice to be connected like this #i think that's what i like so much about stories where people explore abandoned places #it's also about knowing other people in a very genuine way #not what they present to the world but how they really lived #idk
