First post (with face)
Thinking of recording progress of fitness here
somehow, amazingly, i have hacked the impulse that makes me mindlessly scroll on my phone. it's not gone but i've paired it with a conscious thought process that goes like, "what's my goal here? i'm looking for entertainment, for information, for something that makes me feel more optimistic and interested in the world i live in..."
and because that kicks in between apps, too, i'm not doomscrolling as much. i'm intentionally seeking out posts or videos or whatever that actually mean something to me. when i'm not satisfied i walk away or pick up a book instead. most subtle yet impactful change i've gone through in years
i did not intentionally set out to change this. i've just been working on my mindset in general. hey, turns out having a good therapist again helps
thank you to everyone who has liked this post for reminding me to keep up the habit. just caught myself doomscrolling and remembered i have a nice podcast i could be listening to instead
i spent an insane amount of time trying to make that gif on my phone lmao please validate me 🥲

kick ass
hell yea! they make the complex plane
julia lives there
Fuckin who
julia :)
W hat
she's basically any smallish collection of values, for example, members of the mandelbrot set, where any small perturbation would DRASTICALLY fuck up the end result
she's a visualization of very very small instances of chaotic (not random, but not easily calculable, like a double pendulum) behavior, but her look on the complex plane can be really pretty :)

An extradimensional intelligence accidentally knocked into the body of a little girl.
Its original body is now inhabited by her soul, who is now encountering other superspatial beings (and making friends). Protectors of some part of reality, from the specific to the seemingly mundane, enjoy her company.
Calm and somewhat relieved, the creature in this body is now the most informed and patient person on Earth. It’s in no rush to get back, helping those around it at a relaxed pace.
literally heartbreaking. see that crack.. he just BROKE his pussy.
this is disturbing
god was still learning to draw when he made this
She is beautiful

we can all learn something of resiliency from these beautiful, deeply stupid creatures
sunfish are intelligent actually, they're active swimmers and dive and hunt during the day while hanging out near the surface at night. that's right, they're actually predators.
read this: (source)
sunfish are even strong enough swimmers to breach, (insane considering they average 540 – 4,400 lbs!!!) which is a much different image than the useless floating dummies that everyone seems to think they are :[
all this sunfish disparagement drives me wild. you can learn so much from the ocean sunfish because its actually an ingeniously evolved fish that's perfectly adapted to migrate between depths.
here's some additional reading: (Tweet) (Informational article)
People tagging like gore or animal death need to know the one in the first image is possibly just fine! That entire area of the body is pure muscle and it looks already healed. It will just be living its life like a bitten cookie.
GULLS WILL DECIDE WHAT TO EAT BY WATCHING PEOPLE
Herring gulls (Larus argentatus) can perfectly thrive in coastal and urban landscapes, however, these birds will steal your food as soon as you are distracted. Urban gulls pay attention to human behaviour in food-related contexts, and will mimic what humans almost all the time, a new study shown.
In a simple test, researchers studied how herring gulls behave in front person eating snacks on Brighton beachfront, UK. They gave the gulls the choice between two differently coloured potato chips, and when the human were eating potatos chips from one color, seagulls approached the food, and chose the same colour that the experimenter was eating, the 95 per cent of the time.
Seagulls were able to use human cues for stimulus enhancement and foraging decisions. Given the relatively recent history of urbanization in herring gulls, this cross-species social information transfer could be a by-product of the cognitive flexibility inherent in species who steal food, called kleptoparasitic species. This success in urban environments is suggested to result from behavioural flexibility, which is likely to require specific cognitive adaptations. In food-stealing birds, success is said to reflect an ability to integrate and use information about both the environment and other individuals, and kleptoparasites generally have usually larger relative brain sizes than their hosts.

I would honestly prefer if these people just hornyposted about the guy instead of whatever this is
Oh, they do (unfortunately)
