no, you know what fuck this. fuck you. we need to talk about the FEAR in max's eyes here. Like all he wanted was to be loved by someone. by ANYONE. And to be a fair and decent leader. like wow Shrek and dreamworks i expected better from you than a message about how abuse victims ultimately deserve to be eaten by a big dragon. i suppose you think that's feminist because she's a girl dragon. what about fiona's sexual empowerment? Fuck this. max deserved better. i've had it with this franchise. whatever at least we have fanfic. new chapter of my farqiona kinktober entry will be up on friday
The soil testing equipment on Curiosity makes a buzzing noise and the pitch of the noise changes depending on what part of an experiment Curiosity is performing, this is the way Curiosity sings to itself.
So some of the finest minds currently alive decided to take incredibly expensive important scientific equipment and mess with it until they worked out how to move in just the right way to sing Happy Birthday, then someone made a cake on Curiosity’s birthday and took it into Mission control so that a room full of brilliant scientists and engineers could throw a birthday party for a non-autonomous robot 225 million kilometres away and listen to it sing the first ever song sung on Mars*, which was Happy Birthday.
This isn’t a sad story, this a happy story about the ridiculousness of humans and the way we love things. We built a little robot and called it Curiosity and flung it into the star to go and explore places we can’t get to because it’s name is in our nature and then just because we could, we taught it how to sing.
That’s not sad, that’s awesome.
*this is different from the first song ever played on mars (Reach For The Stars by Will.I.Am) which happened the year before, singing is different from playing
no show has ever made me feel as legitimately stupid as killing eve they are like here’s an assassin in a build a bear also she’s ridiculously hot and she’s supposed to be a psychopath but all she ever fucking does is cry over the woman (a milf, obviously) she’s in love with who has 1234 as her PIN on her phone also they both literally get off on attempting then failing to kill each other like it’s some fucking destiny that they didn’t do a good enough job the first time
