a little a Ragnarök, as a treat ☀️🐺

my personal pick for most underrated animal is the european legless lizard, which i think is often taken to just look like a normal and rather plain snake, but if you're familiar with reptile anatomy at all it looks more like some sort of bizarre heraldic fantasy creature than basically anything else on earth

it's called the lateral groove and is literally a sort of seam in it's body that's always present:

I /think/ what's going on is that these evolved from something like alligator lizards, which have very rigid, slippery underbellies next to soft, stretchy skin on their sides (where their legs are situated), but now that they've evolved to be a "snake" and don't have legs that need to move around, that soft skin has decreased and turned into a weird little seam so they can move easier and don't have a big weak point in their sides. it's compensation to have nice smooth scales all over and a flexible size like a snake does, using the lizard anatomy they're working with

(edit, just to clarify: it does stretch out and help with movement and such since their scales can't spread like a snake's can, I more mean that this is evolution's weird attempt to create that adaptation out of the place where the legs used to be in lieu of the scales being able to flex)

basically it's the leg removal surgery scar evolution dealt them

googling shit like "why do i feel bad after hanging out with my friends" and all of the answers are either "you need better friends" (i don't; my friends are wonderful) or "your social battery is drained, you need to rest and regain your energy levels" (i don't; i've got tons of energy, it's just manifesting as over-the-top neurotic mania). why is this even happening. it's like some stupid toll i have to pay as a punishment for enjoying myself too much

I actually, genuinely think social event aftercare would fix me. I need someone to put me to bed and say "you were fun today and no one hated you"

i am crying i can't breathd

i know i already reblogged this today but this video has more emotion in it than my university-level acting classes

Someone give these two their Oscars.

I'm taking a bath with lights off and a lit scented candle, I thought it would be a nice relaxing experience but I feel like a draugr in a skyrim dungeon
