The third photo from top is the Cave of the Crystals in the Naica mine. It's very hot and humid in there, so it's hard to go spelunking. But those same conditions are great for crystal formation!

So Star Trek Prodigy is an absolutely excellent show full of heart, wonderful storytelling, endearing characters, beauitful art and music, and a great balance of episodic and overarching storytelling that many of us have wanted Star Trek to find! Also there are some fun throwbacks that feel mostly purposeful and thought out and not too gratuitous! Lovely season 1, highy recommend to any Trek fan and hoping there will be a season 2!
Also in the Bumblebee movie during the fight with Blitzwing!
is it some kind of unspoken rule at hasbro that bumblebee has to fall off a cliff
Name of the months. May is called maj in Polish.
While Polish has generally preserved the old slavonic names of months, names for March and May were taken from Latin. So May in Polish is simply maj.
The vegetation in maj is in its full blossom. Not only there are a lot of flowers, but there's an abundance of green. And here comes the words maić and its derivatives. This is rather literary language. Some people assume that the name of the month came from the word maić się, just like it happens with the other months (they take their names from the occurrences in nature or works that are done in this month). With May it is the other way around, the occurrences in nature took their names from the name of the month.
maić (verb) - to flower, to decorate with flowers and green branches (just like the nature is in May)
maić się (verb) - this is a reflexife verb, so it means something like "to decorate itself, to be in blossom without the help of any third party. You will find this kind of word in the description of nature and landscape. For example "Łąki się mają" - Meadows are in full blossom , "Wszystko się pięknie mai" - Everyting is growing and blossoming prettily.
umajony (adjective) - be decorated with flowers and green branches
If you are a conlanger, a group from the University of Washington is looking for your input as they set about to create some conlanging software! The survey is fairly short (~5 minutes), and please feel free to share!
nah man you know what
enough with the 'uwu humans are fragile' in the transformers fandoms
gimme humans that are FERAL and are literal space orcs on a hell planet that tries every day to kill them even when its a nice day!
our games as children teach us hunting/evading/pursuit skills. Hide and Seek anyone? we learn to hide from enemies, how to track them down, and how to run them down if playing hide and seek: tag edition.
lets take Earthspark for example.
yes the cybertronians are Much Larger than us and that's Scary bc we're just a Little Guy but also once we get over that fear they become jungle gyms. you literally cannot tell me that (willing) autobots would not have at least 20 soldiers climbing all over their frames, using them as a the 'quick route' to get onto tall walkaways instead of having to go down the hall a quarter of a mile, take a left, take an elevator, and then climb stairs to reach the correct catwalk.
Wheeljack introduces a new weapon? the humans go "ooooo NICE but add a flame thrower."
"Why"
"bc i want to be able to toast marshmallows while i shoot shit with this thing"
just humans being their little weird humans selves and giving cybertronians on both sides heart attacks with the stupid shit we do
Cybertronian Units of Time: a Guide
…concocted by me, via:
Canon Definitions
Most Common Terms Used in Fandom (that I have seen)
Most Common Interpretations of Aforementioned Terms
Math That Makes Those Terms Make Sense Together
Filling in the Blanks With What Sounded Good (to me)
So essentially I began with Cybertronian units with explicit definitions in canon that are also widely used in fandom (ie. Vorn = 83 years, Joor = 6 hours, Groon = 1 hour). I then worked my way out from those and tried to keep to rough factors of 6/8/10.
Some terms that did have explicit canon definitions had to be slightly skewed from their value (ie. Breem: 8 → 6 minutes, Klik: 8 → 6 seconds) if their definition contradicted another definition that made more sense/fit better.
At any rate, obviously no one is obligated to use this standard, but canon Transformers content has been unfortunately… awful at establishing any universal units of time, their relationship to each other, or their equivalents to human units of time.
So this occasionally makes fanfiction an absolute nightmare for people like me with a crap memory who don’t want to constantly have to scroll through a thousand pages of the wiki to remind themselves what the hell a groon is.
So, naturally, I simply spent far too long whipping up this at-a-glance guide to keep track of it & on the off chance that the fandom might adopt it. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
