What would you even say?

"Had a cute frog sit on me today. Win."

My dad is such a dungeon meshihead now it's epic

He sent me a picture of the bread he made and said "I call it Steve's Underwhelming Loaf" and then followed that up by sending me this

This panic happens like every few months.

missed the mark by (looks at calendar) uhhh. hm. but I really wanted to do something for the 5th anniversary! happy five years to these idiots 🎉

I think the best most human thing in the world is strangers doing a silly thing together

Examples:

- guy at work "Yes, and -" ing the bit me and my coworker were doing where we pretended to be owners of a fantasy medieval tavern not minimum wage retail staff

- at the gay club when Die Young by Kesha came on and two hundred people, all dancing and drinking separately, jumped up and down to make the "- beat of the drums *STOMP STOMP*" as loud as possible

- person who watched me stomp round the beach singing a made up song about breakfast foods to name a cat after and suggested more breakfast foods that would be good cat names

- guy who started a dance off with everyone across the road while waiting for the lights to change

- very tiny girl at the pharmacy interviewing everyone in the queue and every single one of us in turn sat down and answered this toddler's questions like we were on Letterman

The elephant is making those chirps because they’re excited at the noise the drum makes. Some zoos give their elephants drums or horns to play with if they noticed they like making noise/“are musically inclined”. Shanthi of the Smithsonian Zoo became an internet sensation for her compositions on the harmonica:

Day 783 of reblogging videos of elephants.

Oh my goodness, the happy elephant chirps. I was dying from the level of cuteness.

loving a character so much will unlock such vulnerable and cringe parts of you that you try to suppress so bad but you can't like it's so humbling

applications for the moderating team and details about issue 1

hello everyone! thank you so much for the interest i've seen in the magazine! currently, applications for the following positions will be opening on the 7th of april, 00.00 IST, and will close on the 14th of april, 2 am IST.

as there is not enough time to compile the first issue (i don't want to take any attention away from a friend's twst summer zine, as it is going to be wonderful), we will be opening applications for limited portions of the team! applications will reopen again in july, and the date will be given in advance.

people can apply to one or more positions! it is also likely that we would be taking interns for these positions in the future as well so people can build up experience in modding/editing.

issue 1's title and theme is halcyon (which means a nostalgia about a time/experience you can never have again). submissions for fanart and fanfics open on the 15th of april, 00.00 IST and close on the 30th of april, 2.00 AM IST.

Bastille was right. How am I gonna be an optimist about this. Also right about eh eho eho.

Please never forget that ēheu, what the background chorus is repeating in Pompeii, just means ‘alas’ or ‘oh no’ or perhaps ‘shucks’ in Latin, which is of course the correct response to realizing you’re right next to where a volcano is exploding.
