Binge Watching The X-Files Because I Have No Self Control And I Wont Have My Life Back Until I Finish

me romanticizing any mind-numbing task i have to do at work by acting like it's one of those narrated field report scenes

Me, 11pm, stumbling upon a 20k beauty on Ao3 :

It's just a oneshot. I got this. It'll be okay.

Me, 3am, eyes fried, brain melted, 3 hours of sleep left:

Well, fuck

ranking the best things I have heard surgeons say mid-surgery:

1. "Five second rule!" while scrubbed, after dropping a sterile scalpel on the floor (no they did NOT pick it up again but I swear everyone's buttholes puckered)

2. (spoken during the closing of a particularly long and difficult case) "Nurse - my tunes." :heavy metal starts blasting:

3. Gently to a fretful patient, pre-anaesthesia: "It's going to be okay. I promise, I've dealt with worse." As soon as the patient is unconscious: "This is literally the worst thing I've ever seen."

4. [okay this one was a med student] "Wowwww, that's so gross!!" Reg: "Please remember that [patient] is awake for this procedure." Student to patient: "Oh my god. I am so sorry, that was really unprofessional - " Patient, cheerfully, also engrossed with what's happening inside them on the screen: "Nah - it's, like, super gross, right?"

5. [another procedure where the patient couldn't be put under GA] Patient: *starts singing country roads midway through the procedure* Surgeon: *shrugs and joins in with surprisingly good harmony*

About 10 years ago I was working for a gaming company doing creature design. After work, I would go home and dissect animals in my garage. I borrowed a tiger carcass from a local taxidermist. I wanted to understand how the jaw muscles worked, so I stop motion animated it.

The muscle on the back of the head (Temporalis) bulges out when the jaw is closed. But when the is jaw is open, it depresses in like the surface of a trampoline. But not uniformly, in a Y shaped pattern.

I ended up getting evicted for stop motion animating tiger parts in my garage…..but it was worth it. I still have hard drives full of animal carcasses reference animations today. Fun Times.

two year anniversary of my vocabulary being permanently changed for the worse

Rowlet but neopets

another gravity falls animation! :3 hope yall enjoy!

So, Gillian Anderson is slightly taller than me and every time they have a scene where she stands next to David Duchovny without the Scully box, this is all I can think of:
