Black kites and whistling kites are among a group of bird species known as firehawks. They intentionally spread fires in order to catch prey.

look, I know I've talked about this essay (?) before but like,

If you ever needed a good demonstration of the quote "Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic", have I got an exercise for you.

Somebody made a small article explaining the basics of atomic theory but it's written in Anglish. Anglish is basically a made-up version of English where they remove any elements (words, prefixes, etc) that were originally borrowed from romance languages like french and latin, as well as greek and other foreign loanwords, keeping only those of germanic origin.

What happens is an english which is for the most part intelligible, but since a lot everyday english, and especially the scientific vocabulary, has has heavy latin and greek influence, they have to make up new words from the existing germanic-english vocabulary. For me it kind of reads super viking-ey.

Anyway when you read this article on atomic theory, in Anglish called Uncleftish Beholding, you get this text which kind of reads like a fantasy novel. Like in my mind it feels like it recontextualizes advanced scientific concepts to explain it to a viking audience from ancient times.

Even though you're familiar with the scientific ideas, because it bypasses the normal language we use for these concepts, you get a chance to examine these ideas as if you were a visitor from another civilization - and guess what, it does feel like it's about magic. It has a mythical quality to it, like it feels like a book about magic written during viking times. For me this has the same vibe as reading deep magic lore from a Robert Jordan book.

Messaging people for the first time is so hard. What am I supposed to say? Like, "You seem really odd and your blog intrigues me. Do you want to have philosophical conversations or perhaps talk about fictional characters?" What! Whatever. I will just follow you back and stare at your blog with my big beautiful brown eyes.

Since mans is a voidwalker, he would not be able to survive in the overworld normally

Logically this means undergo a life-altering procedure to fuse yourself with a robotic suit, getting rid of about 70% of your organic mass in the process

He's one of the very few voidwalkers to ever undergo such a procedure and one of the very first to do so succesfully

Basically all that's left of him is his respiratory system and parts of his nervous system (as well as some spare tendons fused to finer mechanical parts, which, in combination with leftover nerves, allow for finer movement, such as in his forearms, allowing him to control his fully robotic hands much better)

Only some of his original vocal chords left and some rather aged speakers means he sounds characteristically.. tinny

He breathes air that is filtered and reduced in oxygen by the backpack on his armor

He has no need for a normal communicator; he has a communication system wired right into his brain (check the little antenna!!)

Pressure change between the void and the overworld means his organic eyes had to go :// He has bionic ones instead :)) They're not what you see on his visor though; in addition to filtering some light frequencies it functions as a display for emoting (mostly in the forms of emoticons, obviously)

Sleeping in a bed with the armor would be awkward, so instead it has a system to lock itself in place! X sleeps standing up and it's as funny as it can sometimes be unsettling

He's a bit overdue for a medical/mechanical check-up at this point, but really it's nothing a bit of duct tape and a soldering iron can't fix ;)))

When asked he says he could never regret shedding his organic form; he quite likes living in the overworld and running a server of his own :))

[whose is your fav transformer?]

I’ll make the full colour one when I get home

Thinking about that post I made about Miko with the apex armor and how her going to different aus would seriously mess them up. And it got me thinking what universes of the sort would suffer the most impact from her entering them?

My first thought was Bayverse because you know ✨guns✨ and stuff but honestly they're pretty used to all types of transformer psycho bs so I think they could adapt. It might take a bit but they eventually get there. (Also if we're being completely honest here she would probably fit into this universe too well. They would get along like a house on fire and a arsonist.)

Series like tfa where everything is sillier with the bots being significantly much smaller than tfp would definitely feel more of the negative impacts of Miko. Then again in some continuities we're humans don't exist or aren't relevant there's definitely a major psychological aspect that would apply to it.

I mean how would you feel if suddenly an organic alien child constantly ready to throw hands showed up in your inderstructable relic armor? Definitely not thrilled to say the least. Like just imagine it with a world like Tf one. They just went through some major politics of the century and as Optimus is about to start attacking Megatron out of nowhere this little pink screaming thing just slams into the decepticon. I do mean very little as tf one bots are ginormous dude, Google it. What would proceed to be peak comedy, not so much damaging but definitely entertaining.

I'm not that knowledgeable about many transformers continuities. I'm really only familiar with Bayverse, Earthspark, and tfp of course. So you guys gotta lock in for me with your tf knowledge. Debate in my reblogs/comments about this; would really love to see it.
