"Luke, I am your *second* father"

alt text:
tumblr post where first post reads, alternate universe where when darth vader declares that he's Luke's father Luke comes to the (entirely reasonable) conclusion that darth vader and anakin skywalker were married

reply reads, How could you kill your HUSBAND?!" and Luke gets away with his hand because Anakin's too confused trying to figure out when he and Obi Wan got married and why he's only learning about it now

edit: also I'm @[email protected], I think my home instance is updating or sthm right now 🤷‍♀️

Get up close AND far away in focus?

I wanted to get this photo of my cat (sleeping in the window) and a treat i got for her in the same photo, when I took the photo the cat was in frame but when it processed neither were in frame completely ruining my photoshoot :(
Is there a way to,
A: get both in focus (preferred)
or,
B: keep only 1 in focus

Also, is there any way to prevent a photo from processing? When I take a photo of a screen ex. a funny thing on a school laptop, it looks good in the camera app but when it processes it has warping lines and looks really bad. Compression might ruin it but here's an example:

Fell asleep, in a dream... IN A DREAM.

I don't dream. By that I mean like 2-4 a year, but when I do they are weird. The most I've ever had was when I had a repeating dream like 3 nights in a row. Last night was one of the nights when I did dream.

So me and my dad went to a car dealership and bought a motorcycle and a cybertruck. We like to buy used cars and drive them till death to save the 'new' tax. We also wouldn't buy a motorcycle so this started off extremely strange. Anyways, I started driving the cybertruck home (it was nighttime) and I guess fell asleep at the wheel because I woke up while driving.

I am 17 and have only been driving for ~1.5 years so driving is still very scary for me, falling asleep at the wheel was extra terrifying. Some more background, my first car (a green 2016 Kia soul 💚) has recently had the ABS and anti-slip thing warning lights turn on and off randomly, always together. My oil change is in like a week and the break fluid is probably low and nothing feels different so I was told to keep driving to school/work with it till I can get an oil change.

Back to the dream, while I was freaking out nearly crying because I fell asleep, the car somehow turned into me driving the motorcycle and going 15 over the limit at 75mph. The road I was on was going to turn into a city soon so I started slowing down, but my brakes didn't work (flashback to my IRL warning light). I started freaking out trying all sorts of stuff to slow down like wiggling back and forth on the road or pulling the emergency break (idk if motorcycles even HAVE e-brakes) but nothing was really working. I don't remember how but somehow I managed to get it down to 15mph and bailed off in some empty lot in the city.

At this point I realized it was a dream and I was like explaining it to my family the next day and laughing about it. THEN I ACTUALLY WOKE UP.

I fell asleep IN A DREAM... IN A DREAM!? It was actually so weird. There was more that smoothed it out where I wasn't just jumping from thing to thing but when I wake up my mind starts writing over the memory of the dream like a VHS tape, Is this what it's like for people who normally dream or am I just different?

banana for rule 😔

Review on Amazon: A banana for scale should be to scale https://a.co/d/aAZPaX4

::: spoiler Alt text 1 star review by user "Tall Guys Wife" on Amazon of a rubber banana that has the words [for scale] on it.
Picture attached shows rubber banana is smaller than real banana.

Review text reads: "purchased this 'banana for scale, but it's way smaller than an average banana. People on social media demand if you're showing something that you use an average banana for scale. I would never deceive anyone with this ridiculous substitute for an accurate measuring tool." :::
