Ever found yourself in an awkward pause in a conversation with neither party knowing what to say at the moment?

Sometimes, it can feel way too long, and even if they last for a few seconds, you'll just want that silence to end.

This clever Tumblr features illustrations of little-known facts — perfect for livening up stilted conversation.

These illustrations are the brainchild of Ryan Cranston, a digital marketer. In a blog post introducing the project, he wrote, "I wanted to draw more and I wanted to research esoteric historical data. The result: Fill the Silence."

It's got all the cool facts you can randomly blurt out. Awkward moments solved!
