Soup-serving robot fail. [video]

Simone Giertz, the self-proclaimed “Queen of Shitty Robots.” She intentionally engineers terrible robots just for fun.

everything this woman makes is goddamn fantastic

So I went to her YouTube channel cuz I was like “yo I want some more funny robot videos.

Turns out:

Her latest update on twitter just came out less than a day ago:

Hopefully, her recovery goes well.

On a lighter note, when she discussed the possibility of going blind in one eye as a result of the surgery she got a comment:

I’m the headcanon anon from before. I was wondering if I could get a small list about how Alice shows all her family members that she loves them?

maryalicebrandon:

Carlisle 

  • She spends a lot of time getting him cute little “dad gifts” 
  • so she gets #1 dad mugs, ties, shirts, etc
  • she also will go into his office while he’s pondering over a case 
  • offering her opinion and having it as a fresh pair of eyes
  • and is someone who he can go to if he’s having trouble 
  • she won’t tell him the outcome but will hint 

Esme 

  • baking baking baking 
  • Alice finds the best charities in the new towns they live in for Esme to volunteer at 
  • Alice loves having mommy daughter days 
  • so manicures, pedicures, facials, makeovers etc 
  • experimenting with Esme’s hair (i.e. curling it, french braiding it, straightening)

Edward

  • forcing him to play games with her 
  • “write a song for me”
  • Having mental conversations 
  • yelling in her head a random times stupid stuff to make him smile 
  • hey butthead have you heard? i love you 
  • being a shoulder to vent because he focuses too much on the past and she’s always the one person who reminds him to look forward to the future

Rosalie

  • getting her new parts for the car
  • shopping trips together 
  • finding vintage cars around the country for her 
  • car shows together (+ a drive in movie theater for Alice)
  • including her on mommy daughter dates

Emmett

  • loving the fact that they’re the two “Cullens” with the same hair color
  • so pretending they’re twins and getting matching shirts
  • playing videogames with each other
  • “pleaseeeeeeeee arm wrestle me” 
  • + pouting when he wins
  • buying him new punching bags every month bc he boxes way too often 

Jasper

  • kissing him whenever he’s having trouble (like in the diner)
  • doing research on his family and making a scrapbook for him 
  • like with Edward she tells him not to dwell on the past
  • whenever she’s around him she pours out all the love for him 
  • whenever he’s doubting himself and thinks she’s better off with someone else she just gives him a look
  • buying him better outfits because she’s tired of those goddamn blue button down shirts

Bella

  • “I don’t care how much you don’t care about how you look. If I have to see you every day I’m giving you a makeover”
  • Once the Cullens she returns to Forks she sends her draft replies of all of Bella’s emails 
  • Stealing her away from Edward to hang out with her 
  • even if it’s just where Alice is reading fashion magazines and Bella reading Wuthering Heights 
  • taking her to vintage bookstores in Seattle 

tysm this was so much fun I loved it 💕💕

Boris Groh is one of my favorite artists, mostly because of his works that feature LARGE skeletons just doing their thing

This is by far my most successful post on tumblr and I am really fucking glad because my main man Boris deserves to be recognized for his work. Even if its mostly getting passed around in the form of memes about cheese.

Females in Dhaka are guarded by teenage students after several girls were raped by officials of the Bangladeshi government for protesting against dangerous roads.

THIS! This is how change is made. Us women can only do so much, and have done alot, but real change with violence against women starts with the men and their attitude towards women. This is a perfect example. It’s a huge step in the right direction. ✊

Why is this not in the news.

This is not in the news because the Bangladesh govt is closely monitoring any type of social media and attacking those that make posts. This includes all forms of news as well.

The government is also trying to get permission to filter Facebook feeds

Spread this!

The Ticking Tomb

The Ticking Tomb served as inspiration for  Edgar Allan Poe’s famous short story, The Tell-Tale Heart. The legend behind Vandenberg’s Ticking Tomb dates back to 1760, when famous surveyors Charles Mason and Jeremiah Dixon were busy planning out the border between the Northern and Southern colonies. According to the legend, the men were interrupted during their meeting when a small child crawled into their tent and began to cry.

Both men were obviously alarmed to find an abandoned baby wandering around in the woods alone, so Mason quickly scooped up the crying child and began to comfort him with his pocket watch. According to the legend, the young boy opened up his mouth and swallowed the entire pocket watch whole.

When Mason and Dixon brought the young boy back to Landerberg, they discovered his name was Fithian Minuit, and he had managed to escape his parents only to wander off into the forest. That was when his parents noticed the mysterious clicking noise coming from their child’s stomach. It was the pocket watch that had continued to tick from inside Fithian’s small body.

Eventually Fithian grew up and married a woman named Martha, who once told him that the ticking sound was a perfect representation of their love for one another, and as long as the familiar sound continued to emanate from his stomach, their love would be eternal. As people do, both Martha and Fithian died, and were buried side by side in the unnamed cemetery on London Tract Road in Landernberg, Pennylvania. To this day, locals say that Fithian’s ticking watch still echoes from the ground beneath his grave. They named his final resting place The Ticking Tomb.

Of course there’s a far less dramatic explanation for The Ticking Tomb. Years ago there was a spring which ran under the cemetery, and the steady flow of the water probably accounted for the phantom ticking. It might also explain why it’s become more and more difficult to hear the ticking sound throughout the years, as the spring has gradually shifted away from the graveyard. (Source)

Okay, so if you’ve heard the Mean Girls Musical soundtrack, we all get a little thrill out of when Janice says “raise your right finger and Solemnly Swear” in I’d Rather Be Me

…but it’s even better when you know that there’s a patch on her jacket that says “Straight Out of Azkaban”
