fucking sucks when a stupidly overused song actually DOES represent your fav well now its like ah fuck do i admit that and lose all of my credibility forever

really wish humans could fight each other without doing irreparable damage to our bodies

getting punched is a deeply satisfying experience that cannot be easily replaced by other sensations and also if it happens to you too many times horrible things will happen to you

here y'all go, just a simple fun one this time around! take this quiz and tell me what kind of cat you are! (=^･ω･^=)

THIS OCTOPUS IS HAVING A NIGHTMARE, SCIENTISTS BELIEVE.

Sleep is a fundamental biological function present in all vertebrates and most invertebrates. Octopuses are really complex animals, displaying active and inactive sleep states similar to those of vertebrates. In particular, octopuses have active sleep states during which they display sequences of camouflage patterns, while remaining relatively quiet and unresponsive to external stimuli. Some scientists have speculated that these states could be analogous to dreaming in mammals.

Now, researchers have recorder what is believing an octopuses having nightmare. During a month, researchers recorded a male Brazilian reef octopus (Octopus insularis), and they detected four brief episodes were identified during which the octopus abruptly emerged from sleep, detached itself from its sleep position, and engaged in antipredator behaviors, despite no predator was present. The longest of these episodes resembled the species-typical response to a predatory attack, suggesting that the animal may have been responding to a negative episodic memory while sleeping.

However, these are just conjectures, as it is hard to be sure, according to scientists, who claim that more studies are needed to ensure that they really are nightmares.

HOW TO LISTEN TO THE MOUNTAIN GOATS

Step 1: be convinced there is something wrong with you

Step 2: stay silly

I love reading a book you are slightly too stupid for

we need to figure out a way to make doing dishes less annoying for everyone. and we need to figure out how to make cigarettes healthy. and we need gay sex

Nautilus expedition live streams (+ their commentary) 2020 / 2021 / 2022

i think maybe what was so jarring about meeting kiriona in ntn was that it was the first time we weren’t hearing from her perspective. there were no asides and no one liners and the way she was talking didn’t read as gideon but that was exacerbated by the fact that we weren’t in her head (or in harrows head alongside her). so my kneejerk reaction to reject her or be pissed off was because i’m seeing her as everyone else did - everyone else but harrow, obviously.

hoping that maybe in alecto we get a moment of bliss in her prefrontal cortex to feel close to her again

A twitch streamer calling for his “mods” is exactly the same as a king asking for his knights to execute someone

anyone else know in their heart that they would absolutely adore smoking cigarettes so they have to avoid them like the plague or just me

unfortunately smoking cigarettes does, in fact, looks sick as fuck. i'm not willing to risk lung cancer to look cool but the fact must be stated that smoking a cigarette looks dope as hell

what the fuck ever it's not like you guys have found the cup or the scepter yet either
