You can do that?!!

McFucking PARDON?!

I have exciting information for you! Bird bones are not entirely hollow, rather they are filled with large air pockets. I find the result both delightful and terrifically unsettling!

To expand upon this: a lot of birds’ bones aren’t hollow in order to make them lighter, but instead so that they can take in more oxygen. This is because when you’re flying through the air at speeds of Fast™, it’s very hard to convince the air around you to flow into your nostrils at speeds that let you get enough to breathe. So, birds evolved hollowed out bones to circumvent this, as it allows them to store air.

I feel like not enough people are aware of the fact that birds are nightmare creatures that have respiratory systems that extend directly into their bones. And the same thing was the case with lots of dinosaurs, light bones let birds fly and let dinosaurs grow huge.

#dragons have the same bones

Pequeño pero matón

the worst part ab having online friends is that to maintain the friendship you actually sort of have to have conversations with them. if we were all irl friends i would invite you into my home, give u my xbox controller & let u play a game on my bed while i lie next to u and coexist in ur space and backseat game you

In case no one told you growing up

To all the kids whose parents couldn’t help you with this kind of stuff

This post literally had me going “Oh shit! My bras are outside!” out loud, so I would add “Take your laundry in after line drying it so that it doesn’t get spiders.”

(I don’t know if there are spiders in my bras. This is now my spouse’s job to find out.)

Was reading this with great enjoyment, and then hit the about airing out your house and misread “silverfish” as “shellfish”. And (on the wings of the mental image the phrase then provoked) did a doubletake that nearly gave me whiplash; then laughed so hard I couldn’t breathe for about thirty seconds.

Thank you, OP. That was blessedly cathartic. :)

Also: I need new glasses AGAIN. (sigh)

slowly puts my hand out for my new followers to sniff before I try to pet them

Alright, post cancelled. You can all go home now.

I feel bad for people who’ve never experienced a corn maze bc it’s not even fun but you just have to do it

I'd like to reblog this with some tags and comments bc I've really appreciated reading them

people who get what I mean:

people who have found a way to have fun in the corn maze but who I'm a little worried about:

person who we are going to put in the corn:

I wanted to ask that question too. Anyway, I believe that I have managed to deduce it.

So the cat is flipped upside down? I thought any self respecting cat would emerge paws first.

voluntarily deadnaming myself for a second because i always introduce myself to people i'm not out to as "ness, like the monster" and i just realized how funny it would be if that was a normal thing you were expected to do when meeting new people. my name's ruby like the gem. my name's george like the guy who slew the dragon. my name's jeff like. the killer.

I once introduced myself as "Cat. You know, like Nyaah" and then immediately felt my soul leave my body.

I said "My name is Theodore like the president" to a Walgreens worker today and I wanted to hide in my roommate's hot car.

Am I the only who feel slik when I introduce my self that way?

"Yo, am Kain, like Can and Able, with a K".

I've survived my first day on Tumblr

Achievements:

Oh boy oh boy you're gonna get a Rare achievement for this one

Containment Breach

I've been inundated with over 120 new followers in the last 5 hours. I haven't been able to even check if I have any pornbots. I'm tired and need to go to bed. I'll clean up this mess tomorrow.

This is cool to look at, though. I'm studying some data-science adjacent fields so things like this are fascinating to me.

I've been told I should submit this to world-heritage-posts. Just to make it clear what happened to me, here's a screenshot of my notifications activity in the last 24 hours.

For additional context, I've only been here 4 days.

At his point, I've been here 5 days and this post has 85k+ notes. My notifications have recovered to the point that sometimes they're empty so I'd say the breach has been recontained and now I just need to deal with the cleanup process.

I figure it might be interesting to show just what this experience has been like.

This is my notification history over the last week. I joined Tumblr Saturday June 17th, 2023 around 12pm so the actual data starts half way through the chart. My follower count has grown at a roughly equal pace.

Overall, I enjoyed the whole thing once the shock died down. I was just surprised this was the post that would gain any traction at all. I expected the chicken posts would be the first ones to reach triple digits and only several months later. But I've enjoyed reading peoples' reactions and chatting with folks here.

I'll close out by sharing some other achievements I've gotten since:

And with this, I'm going to call this chapter of the Saga of Containment Breach closed

You are going to have a 100k notes post in your first week here. You are really speedrunning Tumblr.

There needs to be a bad romance movie about someone falling in love with their tumblr mutual

@sodabutch out here being funnier than me on my own post

I think everyone who enjoyed this post back in 2021 should know that I’m now dating the person that inspired it. The feeling was mutual
