Harping about Loving

What can we do about this world’s craziness? Let it play out? Or, as Christians, demonstrate radical love so that hurting, misunderstood and broken people will know Jesus by OUR love. Jesus reached His world in three short years. Those years ignited a flame that continues to spread to OUR world. Jesus “harped” on love. That love was perpetuated through His disciples AND continues through…

christ sometimes I just wanna. steal a time machine & go back & sit down next to my 9-year-old self and just like. let them pull out their pokemon card binder & gush about their holographic gyarados or whatever. I'd just smile & ask questions about motherfukcing bulbasaur & tell my kid self that I thought they were a neat person, & someday they'd find other people who thought so too.

like i'm a grown adult who honestly finds most kids stuff boring, but. damn if i could go back & hang out with my baby self & listen to them ramble...just so they knew someone was listening. i would in a heartbeat. thinking about u kid

#wouldn't roll my eyes or check my phone or get bored or nothing #I'd just listen to that little dork & smile & encourage them & let them explain how their favorite gameboy games worked #i was the kind of kid my adult self would find annoying & uninteresting but like #most of the actual adults in my childhood felt that way too. including my dang parents.#and ya know sometimes they showed it. a lot of times without realizing it. and that messes a kid up #if you don't make an effort kids WILL recognize your disinterest and lack of attention.#kids deserve to have caregivers who show interest and engagement #even when it's over stuff that adults find boring. especially then maybe #your kid doesn't have to be fun or interesting or easy or well behaved to deserve positive attention #they deserve positive attention because they are YOUR KID #if love is unconditional then DISPLAYS of LOVE and AFFECTION must also be unconditional #not something that must be earned #telling your kid that you love them is not enough. that is step one out of like a thousand #if you just tell your kid you love them but you don't demonstrate affection and interest and patience and warmth and etcetera #your kid isn't gonna feel loved! I Love You will just become a trite phrase that they regard with mistrust!#bitch you gotta FOLLOW THROUGH

thinking about riz and his love for the bad girls, and how if anyone fucks with them, then sooner or later they’re gonna answer to riz gukgak

#also includes penny to an extent #thinking about Riz immediately moving to save fig and keep her safe in his briefcase #no thought to potential consequences outside Protect Fig #threatening biz for adaine and penny #(with EXTREME violence)#desperately trying to counter Kalina in the forest to protect Kristen. horrified when she sacrifices herself to protect him instead #and the first time he really truly gets aggressive toward the rat grinders is when kipperlilly threatens Kristen. full on hissing mad #was largely neutral toward oisin until he was a dick to Adaine and then welp time to kill his grandma #and it’s so great because they’re just as viciously protective of him #Riz and his girls ❤️#truly I love all the bad kid relationships but Riz is my special guy who’s so full of love that is often demonstrated as extreme violence ❤️#and I just love every interaction he has with Adaine Fig or Kristen they’re all so cute #my musings #fantasy high #dimension 20 #dropout #fhjy #riz gukgak

bad blood is one hell of an episode. it literally opens with mulder straight-up murdering a regular teenager via stake-through-the-heart and he and scully are like pretty sure the FBI is going to be sued and they're going to be doing some serious jail time. except both of them remember the story differently. scully's story is predictably logical and straight-forward. the killer was drugging his victims before bleeding them out, mimicking a vampire attack by wearing fake fangs (which are proven to be fake. this is crucial. this kid was wearing plastic fangs when mulder stabbed him. in the chest. with a wooden stake.) what is also crucial is that mulder was a victim of this murderer's attack and so he was tripping hard when scully intercepts the killer. mulder - whilst tripping balls - is convinced that the killer has glowing eyes and flew across the room before running out the door. and so - whilst tripping balls - he gives chase and ends up stabbing the kid through the heart with a wooden stake.

and of course this is the x files and so while scully and mulder are arguing over who gave who the hardest time in their percieved series of events, it turns out that mulder was right. the kid was a vampire and the stake didn't actually kill him. the fangs were fake because he was copying the sorts of vampires that you see in books and on tv. he was a real vampire.

and it's not just the kid. there are bunches of vampires, including the sheriff. the whole town are just. vampires. the lot of 'em. and the second they're found out, they just up and leave without a trace.

sometimes the extent to which mulder turns out to be right in this show is borderline ludicrous, it's amazing, I love it. but what was even better was that the biggest point of contention between scully and mulder's stories wasn't even the vampire thing, it was whether or not the sheriff was actually hot.

#the x files #fox mulder #dana scully #bad blood #this episode was a great exploration of how mulder and scully see each other and also demonstrates how perception can vary #if even the smallest detail is missed by one party #but also is just an INSANE episode because scully's story is the perspective that wasn't altered with psychotropic drugs #and yet she's Still Wrong #also vampires.#could you imagine if this episode came out post-twilight and the kid was running around with glitter on his face?#i'm loving this rewatch truly

the progression from "there's a morning snack and a midday snack" and "20 bucks for pizza" buck looking after his friend's kid to "bobby's famous lasagne: 6 types of cheese cooked to perfection" buck cooking for his family to "that's makes me your sous chef" teaching his kid how to cook is making me go so feral.

#going from two separate things - like how normal friends who aren't co-parenting would organised it - to the most domestic thing ever #to being the good responsible parent and making sure he eats real food before cookies #AND and the motifs that've been established: teaching to cook as father/son bonding and cooking food as a demonstration of love #im UNWELLLLL #buckley diaz family #911 abc #right from the pilot buck has had an intense care for children (but was also immature himself)#and we've seen him grow into a person who is literally becoming a father. (alongside his increasing ability to cook - which he is learning #from his own father figure)#children - specifically caring for children and being a father - has been tied to very important parts of buck's character development #thoughout the seasons #that man wants nothing more than to be a father AND HE IS ONE.#i dont even know if what im saying is coherent anymore but you get my drift #season 6 911 #lynnsaysstuff

Cat videos from deep space!

So the NASA Psyche mission, launched this past October, also carries the Deep Space Optical Communications experiment, or "DSOC". The goal of DSOC is to demonstrate high-bandwidth communication over previously impossible distances using lasers.

Here's the laser transmitter/reciever on the Psyche spacecraft!

The hope is that this technology will eventually enable super high data rate missions beyond Earth's orbit.

Well, on December 11th, DSOC successfully streamed ultra-high definition video via laser from a record-setting 19 million miles away from Earth! And the transmission?

youtube

A video of this handsome boy named Taters, playing with a laser pointer. Naturally.

#nasa #space #dsoc #lasers #Psyche #orange cat #orange tabby #I love everything about this #they didn't have to stream anything specific - just demonstrate that they could stream SOMETHING #And sure enough they did!#spost #Youtube

Look. Look at me. Look me in the eye. Riley Gunnarsdottir is important because people love her. So many people love her so fucking much. Yes, she's in part a story about how grief fills you up and empties you out like breathing but Riley is about reaching out. She reaches and someone always takes her hand. Folks offer her places to stay, they host her shows, they bring her supplies, they give her a ride and keep her safe and save her friends. Someone loves Riley enough to visit graves for her. Someone loves Riley enough to plan escape routes for her. Someone loves Riley enough to bring her aboard and flee the country with no questions except is he alright? In a series with so many characters defined by their relationships to one or two people outside the cluster, Riley has so many people in so many places that you can't even picture it and yet. Riley ran and someone caught her, everywhere, over and over and over.

#sense8 is about how every connection you ever make is holy beyond comprehension #and riley is about demonstrating that at every turn #so many people love her and she loves so many people so much and she trusts them so deeply every time #'riley is about grief' no riley is about being so down to trust other people that they become competitive about it. hope this helps.#sense8 #riley gunnarsdottir #riley sense8
