okay—idiotas:

I’d like to bring this back. My friend and I want to see if there’s any sort of relationship between Hogwarts houses and personality types (we’re using Myers-Briggs for this).

If you’d like to participate, just reblog or reply to this post (or message me) with your House and type.

For houses- if you were sorted on Pottermore, I’d prefer if you used that result. If you aren’t on Pottermore, or really really don’t think that test matched you with the right house, just put the house you feel you fit in best with.

For Myers-Briggs types- if you don’t already know your Myers-Briggs type, this site is really helpful in determining which of the sixteen types best fits you. It isn’t a personality quiz, it just has information about the different elements that make up the types.

Thanks so much!

(Note- this is for our own personal nerdly enjoyment, not for Official Science or anything. When we put the data in the spreadsheet, we do not enter your username or any other identifying information- just the house and type.)

TEDx Antarctic Peninsula — Susan R. Eaton - 100 Years of Geoscience in Antarctica

Susan R. Eaton talks about the history of science and Antarctica. Today, geoscientists explore this mysterious continent, not because it’s there, but because it might not be there — in its icebound majesty — in the future. Susan shared her ideas at TEDxAntarcticPeninsula, a solar powered event.

Oh, man.  This is near and dear to my heart after having done some work with Antarctic sediments a few years ago.  As far as I can tell, I still have some friends doing work in Antarctica right now (and were probably there for this talk, too.)  I love you, geology.

I have no idea what’s going on here but I like it.

Gym Class Heroes - New Friend Request

Can we just take some time to reflect on how dated New Friend Request seems at times?  Let’s face it, it’s a song about Myspace.  The single was released in 2006, just as Myspace was fazing out and being usurped by Facebook.

I remember when I first laid eyes on you
My man Tom introduced us but I was too shy to say hi
When I finally built up enough nerve to drop a line
You made it clear you wasn’t just another Myspace mistress

The scene culture was just starting to take off.  “Scene whores” were still relevant.  People would collect Myspace friends like Pokémon cards.  This was social media in its earliest stages.

Just get over it and add me goddamnit, I’ve been waiting too long
I even wrote a song about, like to hear it, here it go
If I’m being too annoying, let me know (just let me know)
But it’s hard for me to not hate
When I’m on Myspace I never see my face in your “Top 8”

This was actually relevant at one point.  I suppose in a way it still is, but the Myspace culture has morphed into something far, far different.  Or maybe I’m just getting older and reflecting on my youth again.  Facebook doesn’t seem like a popularity contest at this point - just a means of making communication easier.

I was on this website late night lurking
When I got a message from you that was labled urgent
You said that you weren’t impressed by lame dudes with no game
They’re all the same trying to get your instant messenger name

It’s odd how technology changes, but moreso how technology changes us.  We don’t IM anymore, we use Facebook chat or Google chat or tweet at one another.  Communication has become so instant and the means we have of communicating have changed so much.

Just click approve, come on girl
Baby I’m one of a kind and I ain’t got time to lose

When I was in middle school, AIM was the biggest thing.  My parents wouldn’t let me download it for one stupid reason or another, and I wouldn’t be able to until I got my own laptop when I got ready to leave for college in 2004.  It would be my main means of communication for the entirety of undergrad - and most of grad school at that.  My mother even downloaded it so that she could talk to my sister and I without running up the phone bill.

Let’s face it, it’s a sad situation when we have to resort to keyboards as a means of making relations

Is it, really?

stfuconservatives:

I think of this every time I see conservatives criticizing liberals/feminism for not “lifting up and supporting conservative women.” NOOOOOPE not how that works. Just because we share a gender identity, I’m not required to support your abhorrent views. Lift up and support some poor women, women of color, trans* women, or really any marginalized person. Then we’ll talk about you. -Jess

I apparently do not know how to be a bitch.  Really.  I think after growing up with The Irene and the tales of her many years of Being A Bitch it left a sour taste in my mouth.  I easily forgive.  I brush a lot of things off that most people would consider damaging.

Back in undergrad, Jay called me the Patron Saint of Liars and Fakes after that Fall Out Boy song.  He meant it in the sense that everyone I seemed to deal with at the time ended up being either a liar or fake, and they’d come flocking to me, I suppose.  It’s not so much the same now - I do my damndest to make sure that most, if not all, of my interactions with people are genuine and I’ve learned to spot when people start abusing that privilege - but the ease with which I let people back into my life once they’ve been gone for a while is…impressive.

wah wah cry more, it’s 5:44 AM and I woke up in the middle of the night so I had to complain somewhere, why not Tumblr?

On this day back in 2006, I was in my sophomore year of college and on my way to the diner on campus (benefit of Jersey schools, aww yeah) with a group of friends.  We’re naturally kind of raucous and as we were walking in, someone wished me a happy holiday.

I was SO CONFUSED.  It was nowhere near Christmas, and Easter had long passed.  What the hell holiday was this guy talking about?

It wasn’t until later that my one friend told me what 4/20 was.  He let me sit around really confused for a very, very long time.
