Random Poll: How do you prefer to use Tumblr?

This poll includes two sets of device options: one set for app users and one set for browser users. Just choose the option you use the most for Tumblr! Mine would be "Laptop (Browser)💻💫", for example. The poll will stay open for a week, and I'll definitely share the results here.

No pressure to participate! This is just some fun research I am doing out of curiosity. I personally prefer to use Tumblr on my laptop's browser because I'm old and need to see ALL the features easily.😅 So I'm curious to see everyone's preferences here.

Enjoy!💖

Artemis Astronauts Have Drills, Too!

Chances are, if you have ever spent time in a school or office building, you have experienced a fire drill. Well, astronauts practice emergency drills, too!

Since we began sending astronauts to space, we have used systems and drills to practice moving people safely away from the launch pad in the unlikely event of an emergency during the countdown to launch.

Early Mercury and Gemini programs in the 1960s used a launch escape system in the form of a solid rocket motor that could pull the astronauts to safety in the event of an emergency. However, this system only accounted for the astronauts, and not other personnel at the launch pad. NASA’s emergency systems have since improved substantially to include everyone.

Artemis II will be NASA’s first mission with crew aboard the SLS (Space Launch System) rocket and Orion spacecraft. Artemis II will fly around the Moon and come back to Earth. Beginning with the Artemis II mission, we will use a track cable to connect the mobile launcher — the ground structure that supports the rocket before and during launch — to the perimeter of the launch pad. Picture a gondola ski lift beginning at the top of the rocket and ending all the way down to the ground. In case of an emergency, astronauts and support crews move from the capsule into the crew access arm, climb into one of four baskets waiting for them, and ride down to the ground.

There, members of the Pad Rescue team are ready to scoop the astronauts up and whisk them to safety. Think of the Pad Rescue team as spaceflight knights in shining armor. Except instead of saving crew from a fire breathing dragon, they are whisking the astronauts away from a fully loaded skyscraper-sized rocket that’s getting ready to lift off.

The Artemis II mission will also introduce several new ground systems for the first time – including the new and improved braking system similar to what roller coasters use! Though no NASA mission to date has needed to use its ground-based emergency system during launch countdown, those safety measures are still in place and maintained as a top priority.

So the next time you practice a fire drill at school or at work, remember that these emergency procedures are important for everyone to stay safe — even astronauts.

You saw me before I was born. Every day of my life was recorded in your book. Every moment was laid out before a single day had passed. Psalm 139:16

I believe it is Father's desire to let us know that our lives were not a mistake. In Psalm 139:15-16, it says our frame was not hidden from God in the secret place for He saw our unformed body. He cared enough for each one of us, that He took the time to write down each one of our days in His book. Your yesterday was written in God's book. Your today and tomorrow is also penned by the loving hand of your Heavenly Father. You are not just a number in His eyes, but one that is incredibly unique with a special purpose. You were not an accident, for someone is watching over you who loves you more than you could ever know.

Father’s love letter

People after visiting Tumblr for the first time:

I always get confused between AoA for Agent of Asgard or Age of Apocalypse. Both Marvel storylines

Oh goodness, I had forgotten about that one. You’re so right!

One of my favorite panels of all time. Oh Clint, what are you doing? XD

Clint Barton & Natasha Romanoff Loki: Agent of Asgard (2014) #1

Flowers and diamonds.🌸💎

The author of the first fic I read with that tag used it unironically because the father character is a good dad in the book canon, so I was very confused when I read another fic that used the tag sarcastically. XD

one thing i adore about fandom is the “[bad parent]’s A+ parenting” tag on ao3. it’s so universal and so sarcastic and it makes me giggle every time i see it

Most of if not the entire team would survive the trip. Loki would love the idea of bombing the island, but he might end up not encouraging it after some deliberation with Carol and Fury. I mean, he's sometimes reasonably cautious at the beginning of Thor 1 and in his show, so he's capable of being level-headed in a scientific/dangerous setting. That being said, he'll definitely try some chaotic magic for the giggles, and the time it takes Fury and Carol to stop him from doing said chaotic magic would easily add 10% of runtime back to the movie.

Carol would fix the stranded pilot's boat in record time because she's awesome like that.

Fury wouldn't go crazy because (a) he elects to ignore most stupid decisions that come his way, (b) he brought his emotional support flerken with him, and (c) he's Fury.

Which leads us to said emotional support flerken. Fury might be annoyed with Goose at first when she doesn't eat Kong but has no problem with gobbling up the big scary critters on the island. But he'll quickly come around. Kong wouldn't have to fight the "Big One" because Goose single-handedly causes a mass skullcrawler extinction event as soon as they show up. If not Goose, then definitely Carol and Loki.
