Just Like The Word Radius Has The Plural Form Radii, A Single Macaroni Is A Macaronus, And The Same Grammatical

just like the word radius has the plural form radii, a single macaroni is a macaronus, and the same grammatical law applies to spaghetti (spaghettus), pepperoni (pepperonus), etc.

on its own this is cursed information, but it has more sinister implications.

yes. the plural of dingus is dingi. and there’s nothing that any of you dingi can do about it.

MAGUS Part I: Introduction

Magus, aka magic (properly spelled magiq), is the manipulation of the natural world through apparently paranatural means (driven by the "psi" force). Magiq is actually an acronym which stands for Manipulation of Atoms, Gravitics, Inductive energy, and Quantum phenomena. Magiq/magic is called a number of other names, though "magus" is the most commonly interchangeable. The practice of magus is divided into two major phyla: teletics and alchemy. Teletics is the discipline of control over the environment through manipulation of bosons, and the alchemical magics deal in what can be summarized as nuclear chemistry (the manipulation of fermions). These two phyla overlap in various focused disciplines, but the distinction between them is obvious and important. Teletics is the direct manipulation of energy (active), whereas alchemy is the direct manipulation of matter (passive). Teletics Teletics is the branch of magic that allows users to transfer and transform energy by way of boson interactions. It is considered by most scholars to be the active phylum of magic, as its effects are more directly linked to the user than those of its sister phylum. There is a bit of trade-off between teletics and alchemy: teletic magics usually do not involve the weak nuclear force, but alchemy requires it; meanwhile alchemy primarily deals with nucleons and captured electrons, so teletics picks up the use of free leptons in its disciplines. The teletic phylum is so named because the majority of its disciplines involve manipulation of the energies around oneself, including those of gravity and magnetics (telekinesis) and electromagnetic impulses in others’ minds (telepathy). Also included in the teletic phylum are the myriad types of kinesis (such as pyrokinesis and hydrokinesis), illusion magic, and the rare and extremely potent chronomagic (an extreme gravity-based magic that delves uncannily into Aether physics). Alchemy Alchemy is, in the simplest terms, the magic of stuff. In a sense one could describe it as magical chemistry; it influences the composition of atoms and compounds to change the identity and properties of substances. It is generally regarded as the passive counterpart to its active sister phylum, as it deals with the manipulation of mass particles and therefore its effects are more indirectly connected to the user than those of teletic magics. The alchemical phylum is named for alchemy, the basic form of transmutation, but also contains magical schools such as potions, transmogrification, and enchantment.

adding to this, heres my list of CANONICAL memes/recurring gags that I noticed on my fifth binge of the series:

- “sHUT UP [insert male crewmember here]”

- *highly concerned, questioning tone* “Heeeeraaaa...???”

- (with an air of sarcasm) “Happy To Be Of Assistance”

- excessive use of acid. no really. like, unreasonably excessive use of acid. the Hephaestus crew uses that shit like duct tape.

- Hilbert's DIY seaweed replacements (“is... pastime!”)

- irresponsible air management. 65% of the station’s problems involve issues with the artificial atmosphere (and honestly? that’s to be expected in space)

- Specimen 34, aka the goddamn plant monster. I loved 34 immensely and I loved even more that the whole crew just fuckin rolled with it.

- the fucking Empty Man.

and now for my own headcanon additions:

- can’t find something? it was probably in BOX 953 *glare at Minkowski*

- blaming increasingly ridiculous issues on the plant monster [e.g. “the aft deck lavatory has no more toilet paper” “oh the plant monster probably stole it all”]

- something breaks? Hilbert can make a replacement out of seaweed

- *alarm sounds for any reason* “Eiffel go get your burrito from the microwave”

- referring to Hilbert exclusively as “dear Rat Boy”

- bathroom breaks are Priority One Mission Tasks

- increasingly inaccurate guesses regarding the names of the songs coming through Alien Replay Radio™️

- repeated consideration of burning the Home Alone 2 tape for warmth

- on a related note, Hera canonically has access to basically all of recorded history including films but refuses to share with the crew. Eiffel begged her for a week straight to be able to watch Star Wars and then gave up. “why do you torture us like this” “I can’t override my Bentham directory so this is how I make you suffer instead”

ok but consider

memes on the Hephaestus

-[placing object that is not coffee into coffee mug] wow i love this new coffee

- when will the mouthwash return from the war

-classical music is alien appropriation

- everyone trying to out-obscure everyone else with references to the most minor things

- (everyone assumes Doug will have the most up his sleeve)

- (surprise)

- (it’s Minkowski and her theater-loving ass)

- ‘but what does Pryce and Carter say about THIS’

- plant monster impersonations

- putting sticky notes on Hilbert’s back

- [minor inconvenience] ‘this is why we needed a cannon’

- friendship bracelets

- Hera saying ‘I’m in’ in a deadpan whenever she accesses a system

- the lego incident

CAN. FUCKING. CONFIRM. Florida is the dangling dick of America in more ways than one.
