do you ever behold a kind of craft you didn’t even know existed before now and experience a moment of pure unbridled lust
*walking into the club with my date* *turns to them before we enter* tw flashing lights, tw loud, tw alcohol reference. *we enter the building*
Yes?
The way OP abstracted it makes it sound weird, but this is the normal, expected behavior.
Think about it: if you have a friend with photosensitive epilepsy or migraines, you generally warn them about flashing lights. Same goes for your friend in recovery with alcohol. Same goes for your friend with sensory processing issues with loudness. (In some of these cases it would happen as part of the planning process, not when you're about to walk through the door.)
"Bunch of us are going to Sammy's this weekend, do you want to come? Just so you know, people will be drinking."
"It's going to be loud in here, you might want to put in your ear plugs"
Content warnings are an accessibility feature. That most people already do in many daily situations. ("Just so you know, your ex is going to be there", "Do you want to watch this movie with me, Just so you know it gets kinda heavy")
This.
Jurassic Park except they provide proper enrichment for the animals and they therefor don’t feel the need to hunt slow, small humans.
“We stuffed this pumpkin full of live goats for the T. rex watch him try to get them out with his little fingers.”
“Turns out the raptors are cage breakers, so we’ve gotten them a series of door handles to manipulate. Little guys just love it.”
"The Rexes are incredibly affectionate pack animals, so we were careful to breed multiples. Be sure to come during spring time to watch them go broody over anything even vaguely egg-shaped." "We put the Raptors through target training and now if they are bored, hungry, or just want a scratch under the chin they go to spot near the bars and ring a little bell for attention." "Imprinting after hatching was so common that we now have keepers under contract to care for the animals well into adulthood to prevent them from pining." "The Gallimimus turned out to be just giant Canada Geese, and so fear nothing. Their keeper regularly has to stop them from trying to attack fences, guests, feeding buckets, and the now traumatised pack of Ceratosaurs in the next paddock."
"We also fired Dr. Henry Wu."
I have questions for OP either about how big they think a pumpkin is or about how small they think goats are.
In a fictional genetic theme park, we play by Roger Rabbit rules. They’re however large they need to be to make my joke work.
I respect that. Question withdrawn.

the WHAT??
okay, found her
some more good replies from the notes
What is next?
if we could read minds I still don't think we'd understand them.
like I've spoken to people who think in images, who have to translate each thought into words before they communicate. and I think entirely in words, laid out across the void inside my head. my father's thinking is 3d, concepts structured in ways that are incredibly difficult to translate into words. and how would that look to me, if I could see into it? how do I perceive a thought that my mind cannot contain by the nature of their construction?
we all speak a private language to ourselves and we are always translating so we can speak to each other...don't touch me I'm emotional
Sometimes I draw comics where the characters are just nice to each other. (Part 2)
I call this “tiktoks that would have been vines”

I had to build some cat furniture and it made me think of a heavenly cat tree.
I feel like this would be a great addition to a children's hospital!
You know because color theory
We are never gonna let that one go huh
I think people are too used to picturing amoebas two-dimensionally. They look that way under a conventional microscope because we’re just focusing on one layer of a transparent organism, but here are some amoebas under a scanning electron microscope!!!
by Steve Gschmeissner, you can even buy prints of this photo!
this one’s from this website. I think fantasy slimes should look like these shapes more often than just puddles
no idea how this dumb post got so popular but here’s some new ones
You know what. I’m happy at this post being as popular as it is now. These things still give me joy.
Love him... love mr. cool...
So deer have this instinct to stand tall and walk like a king when they notice something (a predator) watching them so they look like strong opponents since predators usually target the weakest members of the herd. The baby is doing the Don't Eat Me Walk.
Predators: “How could I possibly eat someone THAT cool??”
“Oh! This is the Baby Zone! I’ll just put my baby in the Baby Zone- No, Baby. Get back in the Baby Zone. No- get- Get in the Baby Zone. Lok! There’s a whle SHAPE deliniating the Baby Zone, this is clearly where Babies go, and you are a Baby, so get- No- See? See how good the Human Baby is at staying in the Baby Zone? Get in- Get- GET IN THE BABY ZONE SHINJI.”
