hey good news

there's a specifically designated role in the naked mole rat ecology for "guy who runs off into the wilderness and fucks their way into a stranger's house"

Y'all have no idea how absurdly strange naked mole rats are as creatures They're cold-blooded mammals that live in a eusocial structure with a queen and drones, similar to ants, bees, termites and no other mammal on the planet. They barely need to breathe, with a respiration rate low enough to let them thrive in burrows with 2% oxygen, and survive with 0 oxygen whatsoever for about 20 minutes with zero lasting effects.

They live for over 30 years, which is absurdly long for a rodent, don't grow frail with age, and are basically immune to cancer because their telomeres just never shorten.

Naked Mole Rats are rodents that attempted to evolve into bugs, failed, and unlocked the secret to immortality in the process.

But the complexity and the grey lie not in the boop, but what you do with the boop once you have it.

Say you break your ankle. You could know everything there is to know intellectually about the injury. Even with this vast knowledge, you will still experience physical pain.

Now take this logic and apply it to things like ADHD, autism, clinical depression, and other less visible/divergent disabilities. You cannot think your way out of feeling.

That is to say: you are not a bad, lazy, or selfish person for struggling, even if you know why you are struggling.

back in my day the reblog button was on the top. we had to scroll 15 miles through the snow, uphill both ways.

you’re with me everywhere i go. you may be a thousand miles away but you live in my heart always.

Vikings characters as things I’ve heard at work (part 1)

~Bjorn~

“Did you know that ‘Free Bird’ by Lynyrd Skynyrd is exactly long enough to slip out the back of the disco and get a BJ, and return before the song ends?”

“I love old timey shops. You could just roll up and be like ‘12 shotgun cartridges, and a teddy bear please’”

~Sigurd~

“I have a sort of Gandalf effect on things”

~Hvitserk~

“Mind like a Welsh railway that one - one track and dirty!”

~Ivar~

“The legality of that sounds questionable, I’m interested”

~Floki~

“We are most definitely the people our parents warned us about.”

~Ragnar~

“£10,000 in legal fees for custody?! At that point I would have just sold the child.”

~Aslaug~

“Yup, my grandson looked my husband dead in the eye and said ‘Grandad, you big bitch!’. It was a very proud moment.”

~Helga~

“Yup, I know, I’m cool.” *immediately falls over* “I meant to do that, because I’m cool.”

~Lagertha~

“Yes, I am actually a 97 year old woman in disguise. Now leave me, my hammer pants and my knitting alone.”
