Chapter 23 of So Long And Thanks For All The Fish and my favorite line of the entire series will still be this

Me too my man

If there's anything more important than my ego, I want it caught and shot now.

Reality is frequently inaccurate.

It is a mistake to think you can solve any major problems with just potatoes.

I'd far rather be happy than right any day.

For a moment nothing happened. Then, after a second or so, nothing continued to happen.

Douglas Adams, The Hitchhicker's Guide to the Galaxy

The major problem -one of the major problems, for there are several-one of the many major problems with governing people is that of whom you get to do it; or rather of who manages to get people to let them do it to them.

To summarize: it is a well-known fact that those people who must want to rule people are, ipso facto, those least suited to do it. To summarize the summary: anyone who is capable of getting themselves made President should on no account be allowed to do the job. To summarize the summary of the summary: people are a problem…

…Who can possibly rule if no one who wants to do it can be allowed to?

i feel like everyone has at least one of these so: in the tags tell me what media someone else needs to experience to truly understand the person you are today. mine is undertale and the owl house

going a little bit koo koo bananas but it's worth it. love that guy, one of my favorite authors

most dangerous places on earth: volcanoes 

Thought I’d practice some illustration by drawing the most hopeless main character I’ve ever read about(and my favourite), Arthur Dent. He does a fair amount of falling in the books and is generally unable to comprehend his reality, so this felt like the right way to portray him

The lines are converted straight from my paper drawing and the colours quickly added, so as to not overthink anything. I like how it still looks kinda sketchy.

this cat should be named Ford Prefect, because he too studied the dominant society on Earth and pretended to be one, but got a little detail wrong

Who told him cats could be this color?????

I like to imagine Zaphod would do a pinup style calendar… and has like 50 copies.

when the hitchhikers guide to the galaxy said: you are inconsequential to the workings of everything around you. you are barely a speck in a sea of stars. there is so much out there that you cannot comprehend, and they do not care about you. but you are beautiful, and what you do matters. it may be lost forever one day, but it matters. when you swim in the ocean and kiss someone you love and sleep under the stars and stand in the rain and hold something in the palm of your hand, the universe smiles, though it does not know why. you are nothing, and you should take pride in it.

Having multiple intense interests at once is awful. What do you mean I have to think about Scavenger's Reign Sam doing heroic saves as a character in Lethal Company. What do you mean I wonder what would happen if Levi the "robot" met Captain Olimar. What do you mean I want to see Louie From Pikmin beat the shit out of Hannibal Lecter. What do you mean that I think Cecil Palmer should definitely narrate the life of Arthur Dent.

What I post:

Mostly edits, however, I will post the occasional text or opinion. Plus, I have sometimes done polls.

Warning:

I often go through long patches of time where I do little to no posting due to lack of motivation or the inability to think of any ideas. This also can often be because I move fixation from one thing to another. For example, my main fixation was Red Dwarf and then moved to Gotham so I focused on posting to that, I am now fixating on Portal and Portal 2 (plus mods) so my focus on posting to this account is often is limited. For this I apologise for any times I just disappear. I do try and make something at least once a month.
