I’ve discovered the ultimate life form

With a dazzling smile and an exceptionally retracted neck, this lowland burrowing treefrog [also known as the northern casque-headed frog, Smilisca fotidens] was the star of a special photoshoot with National Geographic photographer Joel Sartore. This frog belongs to the Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum.

Will Takarazuka Revue’s all-female production of Yeston and Kopit’s Phantom suffice?

If you like that I highly suggest you should check out Wao Yoka as Dracula.  Not only is she a great female Dracula but she’s one of the best Draculas period.

It’s in Japanese but the refrain there is essentially

“It’s over. It’s over. The battle’s done. Why don’t you just surrender to me? You can see I have won.”

@every-story-is-worth-being-told this is the best possible post for you and martha :’D

obligatory plug for Takarazuka’s various productions of Elizabeth, but mostly my favorite years (1994 and 2007)

I obviously need to watch this.

Also, I need her shirt. And cape.

A Star Trek idea: A comedy sitcom where instead of a Vulcan on a mostly human ship it is a human on a mostly Vulcan ship

All the Vulcans are fiercely protective of the ‘fragile, illogical, prone-to-danger, smart, reckless little human’.

To make the human feel more accepted (as it is only logical) the Vulcans try to include aspects of terran culture in the ship’s day-to-day life, failing spectacularly at it.

The human loves them even more for it.

They’ll get better at celebrating the human’s birthday next year. It’s the thought that counts.

@jvlianbashir​ THAT’S A GOOD END TO THAT EPISODE THOUGH… the vulcans put together awful, bland decorations. they make a cake because it’s of “significant importance”. they go through the process of putting together this party and Studying this Human Ritual and the entire episode is setting up to what you KNOW will be a horrible result. they do a bad job!! then when the human’s birthday comes, and they reveal the off-the-mark, underwhelming looking birthday bash, the human just. starts crying. because they had no idea their crew would go through all this trouble to celebrate their birthday, and even put up DECORATIONS, or make a CAKE, and there’s a birthday card with extremely polite impersonal messages written and a hundred perfectly tidy signatures. and the vulcans are just standing around like “you appear upset. the Birthday Party was unsatisfactory”.

I would watch the fuck out of that

“Humans require regular physical contact to remain healthy. We have a weekly rotation for The Daily Shoulder Pat. Please inform us if this is insufficient contact, either in frequency, magnitude, or duration.”

Okay, I reblogged this because of how adorable it is, but then I started picturing McCoy as the sole human.

yoshihiro togashi, creator of yu yu hakusho and hunter x hunter

I’d like to remind y'all that his spouse is Naoko Takeuchi, the creator of Sailor Moon and she is the most chic fashionista of a mangaka of her time so this is a quite a contrast once how they would both need to arrange their way of living. Takeuchi has nothing but respect for her husband (she calls him her “prince”) and when Togashi took some time off to recover from his burn out playing video games, they rely on his royalties as Takeuchi worked on Sailor Moon.

Looking at this again, it tells you a lot about Usagi in that NT finds him charming.

All along, Naoko Takeuchi was actually the Mamoru in the relationship.

I remember reading somewhere that Togashi didn’t have a driver’s license at the time of the marriage. In the meantime, Naoko Takeuchi had a Ferrari AND a Porsche.

So not only Naoko Takeuchi was Mamoru, she was also Haruka.

(Also, like, what even is this picture?)

As seen here, he’s also known to be a particularly good guy who treated his assistants really well and way above average in the manga industry, giving them bonuses that spanned the equivalent of four months’ pay, giving them his wallet when they had to run errands, paying for their meals, while totally wary to spend his money on himself.

And he doodled little cutesy doodles of him and Naoko working side by side with little heartsies around them.

So, in summary, we have somewhat of an altruist, charming disaster person. I’d say Naoko definitely married Usagi xD.
