ARCANE LEAGUE OF LEGENDS: 2x09 - “The Dirt Under Your Nails.”
↳ “Is that... singing?”
My mutuals are both broke and kinky so I have no choice but to piss on the poor
How dare you say my reading comprehension is piss poor
reblog if you wear glasses. too many mutuals don't know they have glasses wearers in their midsts
DOGE just froze funding to vital Federal and Indigenous conservation programs devoted to supporting the very delicate and tenuous existence of the black-footed ferret.
I fell in love with these animals as a kid traveling to our National Parks. Their rarity and ferocity made me sharply aware, even as a child, of just how much of a responsibility we have toward our environment. I can't bear the thought of them being a fucking casualty of Trump and Musk.
Look at them! They do war dances.
Okay I don't want to end this on doom and gloom, so I'm also going to add that the Buffalo Nations Grasslands Alliance was one of the indigenous-lead organizations who were supposed to receive a $1.1 million dollar grant that has since been frozen. But they do have a website and they do accept donations.
They are currently doing an emergency fundraiser!! Buffalo Nations Grasslands Alliance (BNGA) is raising $50,000 in emergency funds to support Tribal efforts to recover black-footed ferrets
They are 34% to their goal with 11 days left!
43%! Come on y'all!
67%, 5 days left!
68%!! Don't slow down now!!
wikipedia no longer being anywhere near the top of search results when looking up anything feels eviscerating
Listen to me. Listen to me. Listen to me. Listen to me.
I know there is a lot of discourse (tm) around this right now but listen to me
sometimes you do just have to lie to children.
If, when my toddler is, you know, toddling around saying “mama? Big ball?”
If I were lean down and say “unfortunately the big beach ball for some reason fills you with such an unadulterated rage that is beyond human comprehension that you scream until you pass out, so mama had to remove the beach ball from the premises until you can better regulate your emotions” she would simply stare at me like I had 3 heads full of equal betrayal.
So, for now, instead “big ball went night night!”
Please understand when I say “removed the ball from the premises” I mean I popped it in a fit of exhausted confusion. I murdered the beach ball.
See I’ve lied to you all too and it was better this way.
you can’t just leave this in the tags etc.
You can’t be funnier then me on my own posts, I’m in tears from laughter
[ID: tags: "#that wasn't a lie though the big ball did go night night #it went to the great night night that awaits us all" /end ID]
the real reason howl kept his castle moving was tax evasion
This sounds like a joke but I read the book this is the literal reason
HE WAS ALSO DODGING THE DRAFT AND HIS EX!!! I FORGOT!! LEGEND

if you have biologist friends you need to ask them questions about their interests and let them ramble for 5 to 115 minutes. it's really important for their enrichment
i like to ask if two similar-looking animals are even particularly closely related (squid + octopi, hares + rabbits, orcas + cows, for example) and see where that goes. just be sure the questions are relevant to their specific field and let em explore + teach whatever flows
Okay but orcas and cows are actually related! They're both even-toed ungulates, meaning that yes cows are closer to cetaceans than to horses or giraffes!
biologist spotted. tag and release 'em, boys
some people think writers are so eloquent and good with words, but the reality is that we can sit there with our fingers on the keyboard going, “what’s the word for non-sunlight lighting? Like, fake lighting?” and for ten minutes, all our brain will supply is “unofficial”, and we know that’s not the right word, but it’s the only word we can come up with…until finally it’s like our face got smashed into a brick wall and we remember the word we want is “artificial”.
I couldn't remember the word "doorknob" ten minutes ago.

tumblr is such a different animal than other social media platforms for so many reasons obviously but one thing i really find funny about it is how on other sites if i see something that doesn't interest me i don't follow or don't like the post. but on here if someone i follow starts posting exclusively about something really niche that i have no interest in my reaction is never to unfollow. its just part of the natural environment. like oh mutual is now really into pro wrestling? ok i guess ill be seeing these guys around now
