Health and fitness comes in all shapes and sizes. Every single one of these athletes is a certified bad-ass.
I’ve posted this before but it’s worth reblogging!
Just a reminder – if you’re drawing a team superhero book and more than one of your characters has the same build YOU’RE DOING IT ALL WRONG
Always reblog
This is excellent.
Reminded by that eastern hemlocks post earlier, because there at least were some right around there 10 years ago*–here’s one distinctive piece of the Blue Ridge.
A chunk of Staurolite-Garnet-Mica Schist, from just around Fairy Stone State Park in VA.
Happened by there just driving Mr. C around the last time I was home, stopped by the appropriately named Fairystone Pit Stop, and decided to drag him for a stroll up the mountain behind the gas station. Because that’s the kind of fun date I am.
This particular piece doesn’t have the super obvious staurolite inclusions that the couple of others I picked up did, but it feels good in the hand. The main reason I kept it. (This one actually looks a lot like this piece of Garnet-Mica Schist, but looking more closely you can see a few edges of staurolite crystals in the rock.)
I made a half-assed attempt at finding the couple of other pieces with more obvious staurolite, along with the few (irregular) loose twinned staurolites. But, I am a goblin who hoards interesting rocks on cluttered shelves and then can’t remember where I put them 🙄
The small mica flecks weren’t showing up very well in that light, but the sparkle is a little more visible in that last shot. Along with some pockmarks where the teeny little chunks of garnet came out at some point over the past several hundred million years.
sometimes i forget that you can beat skyrim. like, there’s an ending?? you don’t keep making enchanted jewelry for your followers forever??? ive completely lost the plot. im a soup witch now
Things Mirrors is evidently willing to accept as treats, in a pinch 😹
He was just bugging me when I was trying to get something to eat, and also decided the pouch food I gave him was inedible. Good thing I remembered this weird little sample pack of dry food in with the pouches.
To make it better, I think that’s even the same flavor as what’s in their dry food dish right now. But, everything is so much better when it comes out of a little treat bag!
It doesn’t make us go crazy. We just don’t understand the why. No one has ever satisfactorily explained why bagged milk is better than milk in jugs.
There is no literal reason since the jugs we use are just as cheap as bags and with a bag you need to put it into something as soon as it’s opened because otherwise you’re crying over spilt milk
I don’t understand why y’all use jugs though. They’re so impractical.
No they’re not. You have a self contained stand able container.
With a bag you have one floppy boi
We have holders for that. There’s no real difference.
Wouldn’t it be crazy if there was a way you could hold milk without grabbing a separate holder? Some sort of solid plastic or cardboard container, that would be so cool.
Then there are Soviet milk pyramids. Those are the oddest milk containers of all but they’re really cool.
Thanks! That’s horrible! Curse you for sharing!
It looked like it, but confirmed that those are the original Tetra-Pak cartons. (With the company name coming from the tetrahedral shape.) Dairy products were the main thing they were developed for initially in Sweden, and some started being produced in the Soviet Union in 1959.
I’ve seen smaller individual portion-sized Tetra-Paks like that used for sour cream in the US more recently, but that’s the main thing I can think of offhand.
The Tetra-Brik shape which is mostly what you see now apparently wasn’t introduced until up into the ‘60s. Something that will stand up better does seem like more practical packaging for liquids.
