STAR TREK VOYAGER | SEASON 7

Filming the Bridge scenes for Voyager’s finale episode Endgame

Fire on the Mountain

In Episode 9 of the original Transformers cartoon, the Cons get crafty and build a machine that doesn’t work but kinda does, Spike meets a girl that I think never gets a name, the Seekers are all treacherous bastards, Wheeljack is a huge asshole and several people get dramatically thrown off a temple.

Should've posted this earlier but whatever

I keep plaguing my friends with Bumblebee frame-by-frame details because he’s so expressive ( like other characters, this show does expressions so well!) so you shall too dfgghg

Can someone please explain to me what evaporated milk is? Wouldn’t that just be gas by definition? I live in constant fear

This was meant to be a quick warm up, but it turned into a comic that I’ve wanted to draw for a while. This is something that is extremely important to me, and I appreciate it if you read it.

A while ago, I heard a story that broke my heart. A family went a cat shelter to adopt. The daughter fell in love with a 3-legged cat. The father straight up said “absolutely not”. Because he was missing a leg. That cat was that close to having a family that loved him, but the missing leg held him back. Why?!

Many people have the initial instinct of “nope” when they see an imperfect animal. I get it, but less-adoptable does NOT mean less loveable. 9 out of 10 people will choose a kitten over an adult cat. And those 10% that would get an adult cat often overlook “different” animals.

All I want people to do is be open to the idea of having a “different” pet in their lives. Choose the pet that you fall in love with, but at least give all of them a fair shot at winning your heart.

Don’t dismiss them, they deserve a loving home just as much as any other cat. They still purr, they still love a warm lap, they still play, they still love you. Trust me, next time you are in the market for a new kitty, just go over to that one cat that’s missing an eye and see what he’s all about!

That last image is like out of a painting!

This show is gorgeous, we all know this. But can we take a moment and appreciate how beautifully Starfleet Headquarters was rendered?

A mark on your forehead identifies the god you must worship to stay alive, usually by joining its local church or temple. Your mark is unknown, meaning an old, forgotten god sponsored you. To survive, you must either find an old temple to worship at, or do the arduous task of building a new one

倒序词：Inverted/Palindromic Words

I’m sure you’ve noticed in your Chinese studies that there are some words for which you can switch the order of the characters and get a new word! In Chinese these can be called 倒序词. I’ve put together a list of 20 倒序词 pairs, most of which I’ve stumbled across over the past couple years. It’s so interesting to see the relationships between the words! Most example sentences are via Pleco.
