"Many species of polychaetes undergo epitoky whereby sexually immature worms transform into pelagic morphs capable of sexual reproduction. After fertilization, they release their gametes through rapid disintegration." worms are out here having insane sex we can't even comprehend

"what do they mean by disintegrate?" "oh yeah no he fucking disintegrated"

This skips the best part! The epitoke isn't the "real" or "original" worm. The worm grows an extra body with a simpler brain that only knows how to swim and cum (by exploding) so this part breaks off and the rest of the worm just stays home.

In some species the epitoke, or what I think should be renamed the cummunculus, is advanced enough to have its own eyes and everything, though only so it at least knows the right direction to swim (up) because it's so stupid and all

First and last letter of your name

Goddammit moon moon!

Correct!

More specifically P.W were the letters that formed “Moon Moon” in the original post

Now that’s all, folks!

Thank you so much to @pikachu-says-peekaboo​ for coming up with the brilliant theme and helping me out with the questions.

Shout out to the guy at the municipal waste dump who tried to sell me weed but used slang that I am so incredibly unfamiliar with that he had to keep simplifying his sell until he literally settled on "I am selling weed, do you want to buy some."

similar art:

once on the subway, some investment banker guy was hitting on me and trying to invite me to a party with [indecipherable slang]

and i asked him to clarify, so he used some other [indecipherable slang]

there’s like five iterations of this until it finally “clicks” and i accidentally blurt, for the entire packed subway car to hear, “OH, YOU MEAN LIKE COCAINE”

dude is glancing over his shoulder, looking like he wants to die on the spot, and clarifies “yes, i mean like cocaine”

i smile and go “no thank you, but i hope you have a good time with the drugs!”

he gets off at the next stop even though i know his party was like eight stops away, smh

Exact opposite vibes of my new boss who last week asked me, a Portlander, if I was "aware of cannabis".

“how’s the writing going?” i’m glad you asked! my room has never been cleaner and i’ve decided to take up baking

“how’s the cleaning going?” thanks for checking in! I’ve written four chapters :)

Aha, heroes! While you were building your LAME and PATHETIC found family I was building a COOL and EVIL found family!! AND WE ALL WEAR EYESHADOW!!

Do most of these people perhaps live in a cartoon?

I fucking love transfems with deep voices, whether they can't or simply don't want to alter their voice. You do not have to have a cis-passing voice to be deserving of respect, valid as a real woman/transfem, or attractive.

Caves are weirder and more varied than you think

my followers can have some cave pics, as a treat

#this earth#kinda doubt the one with the orange guys in the crystal cave is real tho

Oh, it's super real, and it's super weird. It's called the Cave of Crystals, in Naica, Mexico. Those giant crystals are gypsum, and originally formed in water that was later drained out. Without the water to support them, they're extremely precarious.

Also...the cave is so hot that humans can only withstand conditions for 10-15 minutes--they're in those suits for a reason. Read more here: https://cen.acs.org/physical-chemistry/geochemistry/Naicas-crystal-cave-captivates-chemists/97/i6

oh I do actually need to clarify that the question asked wasn’t “what do men love doing together” it was “what brings men closer together” which in my opinion is infinitely funnier

y’all love the morally gray, snarky, grief stricken characters until it’s a woman. i’ve seen so much discourse regarding female characters who display the exact same character traits as male leads and are criticized for it while the men are praised. let women be cruel and vindictive. let them deal with their grief and trauma in destructive ways. let them be real. give them the same treatment you would give to your favorite male love interest.

Wishing everyone who thinks gender neutral bathrooms are scary or an impossible to execute fantasy a very Literally Just Go Visit An Alamo Drafthouse.

Transphobes: "gender neutral bathrooms will never work what a horrible idea!"

Alamo Drafthouse:

If u think this scary or impractical I think that's like legitimately just a You problem.

My butch lesbian Jack headcanon since I couldn't romance her in game years ago even though I wanted to soooooooo bad

when joel and ellie stumble across the giraffe, joel barely regards the giraffe and instead focuses his attention completely on ellie. it doesn't matter that there's just a giraffe roaming around, it doesn't matter that their fate is undecided. what matters to joel is that ellie is safe and, most importantly, happy. he hands her branches, he doesn't feed the giraffe himself, he completely focuses on her being happy, laughing, just being a kid. now, joel's priorities go beyond just keeping ellie safe, it's about making her happy now. it's about going above and beyond now. she is his life now.

I so appreciated that the script emphasised the “our doctor THINKS” “he THINKS” and then clearly stating that they didn’t inform Ellie that they didn’t ask her or tell her that she wouldn’t survive this. It makes it so clear exactly why it was such an easy choice for Joel to say no, you will not do this.

the fact that joel went from never even hinting at the existence of sarah and becoming so aggressive whenever she was brought up to openly talking about her so lovingly and healthily was so healing to me
