still thinking about him

Honestly, Anduin was screwed when they took away HIS named, lore-having, signature weapon from him... and replaced it with literally his dad's literal sword. Both a weapon so specifically themed around said dad's extremely specific backstory that it would make sense for no one else period even if they were also a warrior, but also a weapon Anduin has never used and never learned to use (even after he got it??), and also he's not even a sword-using magic class

#the fandom was just dudebro enough to always accept masc-er changes no matter how unbelievably stupid and lazily executed#but can you IMAGINE if varian suddenly got like. velen's staff. and now he's a priest. BUT they didn't even call him a priest?#he was still technically a warrior but now he just...has fuckin' velen's staff for some reason and is castin'?#world of warcraft#warcraft#anduin wrynn (via papercrane)

leitmotifs never get old to me like holy shit dude there’s this melody that corresponds to this one guy and if you hear the melody it means the guy is there. holy shit. and sometimes it refers to ideas too not just guys. has anyone heard about this

Sometimes something fucked up happens to the guy and their melody gets fucked up too. Sometimes the thing that fucked them up also has its own melody and when the first melody gets fucked up the second melody gets mixed in

no fucking way dude. are you serious

oh my god i didn’t realize this video had audio

Okay as adorable as this looks, I’m pretty sure that’s a distress sound?  A “mommy help me I’m scared come save me!” sound?

@why-animals-do-the-thing

This video is from Dragonwood Wildlife Conservancy, and they are yearling (last year’s babies) Cuban crocodiles. Good news for you, this isn’t actually a distress call! According to @kaijutegu​ (and her giant bookshelf full of reptile resources), the laser sounds are an affiliative social call that young Cuban crocodiles use to communicate with their parents. They normally stop making the noise at around two years old, which is approximately when they start dispersing from the family group.

See, Cuban crocodiles are a super social species - and one of the few where the fathers stick around and provide paternal care for the babies! In the wild, babies would regularly interact with both parents, including when they provide food. This call is basically the type of vocalization that the babies use to communicated with their parents.

These crocodiles are being hand-raised as part of a private-sector breeding and reintroduction program (because the parents are so protective of their offspring that if you left them the babies to raise, you’d never be able to safely get close to them), and so they’re responding to the guy in the video the same way because he’s constant known safe individual and also the provider of food. He’s not a threat - his presence is a good thing, and he’s worth interacting with because it normally means food. You can also tell from their behavior and body language that they’re not stressed: some of the crocodiles are actively climbing on him and interaction of their own volition, but the ones that aren’t don’t show any indicators of hyper-vigilance. If that were a distress call, every crocodile that heard it would be alert and on edge looking for the threat. Distress calls tend to only happen once or twice, because in the wild continuing to make noise makes a baby more vulnerable: so these crocodiles wouldn’t be continually vocalizing if they felt threatened. There’s no snapping or gaping or freezing, all of which would be behavioral indicators of distress or discomfort. (Here’s a video of a baby nile crocodile being harassed by photographers which will give you a visual reference for both freezing and gaping.)

So, hey, this is certifiably cute - and good for conservation!

I used Wigglypaint and made some commemorative paws to remember The Great Boopening long after it's ended. Use 'em for whatever, they're free for anything. 🐾

Plus a second ginger color way because I realized after the fact that they gave it brown paw pads, so here's a brown one.
