For some reason people seem to like this drawing of a sad seal I did in a small drawing app, so I’ll share it on tumblr too

have you been a little silly today?

[ID copied from alt text: marker art of a harbour seal that is lying down and sticking out its tongue a little bit. Text above reads "Make time to be silly! It's good for the soul!" The artist's signature reads @ watercolour critters. End ID.]

Who was the man who first salted the slug

What was he thinking to try

Roaming the lands pouring salt on god’s creatures

Hoping for one which would die

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.

If you're on Windows 11 like I am for my "main" computer (in my case for school purposes and because I can't get Baldur's Gate 3 to play on Linux), then you might've seen this annoying piece of AI shit show up on your taskbar:

This is Windows Copilot, and it's fulled by the same shit ChatGPT is fuelled by. There is currently no way to uninstall it, but there is a way to deactivate it completely, which I've linked below. It's very easy, and it took me like, 2 minutes to do.

the fact that fat people are made to feel bad about everything down to how loud or hard they are breathing says a lot about this society

so many people are sharing their own experiences with this and i want to thank you all for being vulnerable and bringing more awareness to the struggles the fat community face.

i grew up dancing and ALWAYS breathed so hard and sweat A LOT. to the point my dance teacher would ask me if i'm okay in front of the whole class and i would feel utter humiliation.

i, too, have held my breath when walking across college campus for my classes, or when i was filming a video because i was so scared of someone commenting on my breathing.

this is not something we should have to feel bad for, a NORMAL human thing such as BREATHING. it's been said many times, but it cannot be said enough. we deserve so, so much better than this.
