if i was a shapeshifter, half of my time would be spent making myself look androgynous and trimming up the things about my shape I’m not happy with, and half of my time would be spent making my teeth look just a little bit sharper than is normal, changing my eye-color subtly between slightly unsettling shades, and giving myself an intricate “tattoo” that just barely moves every couple of hours, until it’s in a whole new shape next time you look at me.

if i was a shapeshifter id have fat fucking tits

The Looney Tunes Show was great. Sucks that it only got two seasons. Last night I watched an episode where Granny told Daffy about how she was a WAC during WWII. That episode was beautiful. 

It was the last days of WWII. They Nazis were being run out of France, but they decided to take some of France’s most valuable art.

The show’s animators drew pretty accurate Mp-40s, considering the show’s style. Normally most animated shows would draw a gun vaguely resembling whatever it was supposed to be.

Including the Eiffel Tower.

Tweety served as a carrier pigeon(they were using all of the birds they could find).

Here’s Granny kicking a nazi on top of the blimp.

And here’s Tweety saving Granny’s life

Granny and Tweety Bird are war heroes.

catopumas are so interesting 2 me bc theres only two species so far in the genus, and its either

a very gentle looking asian golden cat

very kind looking, round. 10/10

and then the other in the genus is

the bay cat, or as i like to call them - the weasel cat. long, kinda weird looking, but still 10/10 despite the weaselness.

I’m not into pranking people, so I decided I’d show you some animals that look silly instead.

Andean Cock of the Rocks (ALWAYS WATCHING)

Arabian sand boas (DOING THEIR BEST)

Dik diks (SMALL?????????)

Softshell turtles (SMOOTH BOYS)

Christmas tree worms (FESTIVE FRIENDS)

Saiga antelopes (I LOVE YOU BUT WHY)

Baikal seals (ROUND BOYS)

I refuse to believe any of these are real

Tibetan Foxes are also very good:

All of these look like my attempts to draw animals

Then know you drew one, just jot the one you intended. Sometimes the greatest achievements are someone elses greatest mistakes.

some info on bees and wasps 

I’ve been stung by a carpenter bee.  They’re usually pretty chill.

And dirt daubers are bros.  

It’s true you can pet Bumblebees

I’ve been mercilessly killing paper wasps and now I feel terrible 😭

I thought they were like yellow jackets!!! I wanna apologize to all the innocent paper wasps I’ve crushed!!!

yeah then there’s the tarantula hawk, which is a type of spider wasp, because of course that’s a thing.

so yanno. that’s pleasant.

a dude researching them described the pain as “…immediate, excruciating, unrelenting pain that simply shuts down one’s ability to do anything, except scream. Mental discipline simply does not work in these situations.”

good times.

Russian soldiers witness the awakening of an elder god.

Why does this stuff always happen in Russia? What are they doing?

Reality decided that’s the only place where it can cut lose, considering they don’t seem to give a fuck about anything. 

“According to some of the YouTube comments, the fire was caused by burning zinc, and the screaming came from the underground pipes that had somewhat of a ‘flute’ effect when the air passed through the tubes.“ 

cool

me: okay that’s a fire what’s so weird about it *unmutes* ………..okay…….

“They cometh”

goddamn that SOUND magnificent

who was the fool who was tasked with naming the galaxy and the only adjective they could think of was ‘mmmmmmmmmmmmilky…’

scientist: (gazing up at space)  scientist: ……….. it sure is a milky boy 

NO

YOU DONT UNDERSTAND

ASTRONOMERS ARE THE SHITTIEST EVER AT NAMING THINGS I KID YOU NOT.

When it came time to name the two theoretical particle types that might be dark matter THEY INTENTIONALLY CHOSE THE NAMES SO THAT THE ACRONYMS WOULD SPELL “WIMPS” AND “MACHOS” I SHIT YOU NOT

THEY ARE FUCKING TERRIBLE AT NAMING ANYTHING

I just listened to a talk by Neil deGrasse Tyson himself LAST NIGHT and he went on about this more than once.

“I’m walking down the street and I’m like ‘ooh pretty rock…’ and some Geologist is like ‘actually, that’s anorthosite feldspar’ and I’m like ‘Nevermind, I don’t want it anymore.’ Any biologists in the audience? [some clapping] Yeah, you know what I’m talking about. The most important molecule in the human body, what did you name it? It has NINE SYLLABLES and it’s so long that even YOU GUYS abbreviate it as ‘DNA’!

But astrophysicists and astronomers? No, man, we call it like we see it. Star made of neutrons? NEUTRON STAR. Small white star? WHITE DWARF. You know that big red spot on Jupiter? Know what we called it? JUPITER’S RED SPOT.”

okay i’m glad you mentioned the biologist nonsense bc their naming methods are the bane of my existence

I see your astrophysicists-are-shit-at-names and raise you Marine-Biologists-Are-Fucking-Maniacs.

See this beautiful creature?

It’s a carnivorous deep-sea sponge that lives off of Easter Island and never sees the light of day, as it’s about 9000 feet down. Those delicate-looking orbs are covered in millions of tiny hooked spines, which latch onto anything unfortunate enough to bump into it, and hold it in place as it is digested alive by the sponge’s skin.  Amazing, beautiful and profoundly creepy.  They could have given it so many cool names.  Could have drawn on mythology (I think Scylla would have been an appropriate reference), the region it was found in, the textured skin, PHAGOCYTOSIS, anything!  

You wanna know what they called it?

PING-PONG TREE SPONGE.

Good job, marine biologists.
