So many notes ppl confused by corn wielding Colima dog wait until you see the dancing figures…..blow your mind. Teach you true love

humankind…what more can I say. I can only aspire to have such deep and rich a human connection with anyone in this life that will be as radiant as a ceramic figural pair of dancing xolos

They’re also at the center of a roundabout

Mexican here, fun fact! While we call them “Dancing dogs”, they’re a young pup and an old dog, and the older one is revealing wisdoms right on the pup’s ear.

You’ll recognize the older dog bc he’s got wrinkles!! It’s a wonderful scene!!

The Ring: If I had a quarter for every time a hobbit picked me up, I’d have two quarters.  The Ring: Which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird that it happened twice.

Of all the bearers of Sauron’s ring, 4 of them were hobbits.

I was wrong. It’s 5. Not 4

The lineage of ring bearers is as follows.

  1. Sauron.
  2. Isildur
  3. Deagol
  4. Sméagol
  5. Bilbo
  6. Frodo
  7. Samwise

I love how Deagol counts as a ring bearer even though he had it in his possession for all of like five seconds

He held it for the rest of of his life!

[Image description: Tweet by @banalplay saying “but something happened then that the ring did not intend. it was picked up by the most unlikely creature imaginable: a hobbit, the same fuckin thing that just had it for like 500 years.” End Image Description.] Link to original here. Otherwise reblogging for the final rb there, which made me cackle.

From the ring’s perspective:

1. Home, the finger of my creator and other self.

2. Well, I don’t like it but I can work with this. Cause some trouble, get some revenge, find my way home, this is fine.

3. What the fuck is you?

4. Right personality, wrong species, I don’t know what you are but I hate you and I don’t know why you’re so resistant to my powers.

5. NO NO NO there are goblins everywhere how did I find another one of THESE horrible things. This one’s even more resistant than the last one and also disgustingly nice. I suffer.

6. Listen, I’ll cooperate, just get me the fuck out of this hellhole full of small cheerful people my power doesn’t work on properly. No, not like that. I hate you. Please stop. 

7. FUCK

8. (Frodo again) I still hate you with every molecule of my mortal form but at least you’re not number seven. Think I’m starting to get through finally. 

9. (Smeagol again) YES it’s you I actually missed you now get me back to the Master and NO FUCK NO I HATE YOOOOUUUUU…. *fzt*

It's important to understand about the "101 magical pistols" setting that wizards make weird magical pistols for the same reason I write about them: because they find it funny.

Because Yeah, most of these things would be more sensible as a potion or a magic ritual or something. If you're going to use magic to give someone bottom surgery, that's the obvious way to do it, you know?

But the thing that's funny, to both me and these fictional wizards, is the idea of making that magic as a gun. Because what if you need to give a nice trans girl some bottom surgery... But she's all the way over there? Thus, the Bottom Surgery Gun.

imagine if doorways grew back like scabbed over with fresh drywall and you had to keep carving them back out with a jabsaw to keep the doorway clear etc

Imagine if the membranes recoiled in pain every time you did this. Imagine if over time, some doorways became accustomed sensation. Imagine that very rarely, some even seemed to enjoy it.

*sleepover host voice* imagine if you two went to sleep

Oh for gods sake kids it’s like piercing an ear - that’s why you put a doorframe in - you don’t hang a door in drywall, you gremlins. You frame the door. It’s like those gauges that people put in their ears - the hole stays. It won’t scab over with a doorframe in it. You’ve lived around doors you whole life, you little clowns. Lights out

so are doors prosthetic limbs then? plugs? what’s a window?

*possible incidents may include: chaos mutation, wish granting, regular mutation, shapeshifting gone wrong, combining your dead dream-self with your omniscient, faceless, green-flickering pet and then recombining upon apotheosis, surgical modification, and HRT

**includes ears, horns, antennae, additional eyes, pedipalps, spines, frills, feathers, external gills, and tentacles

***tail, abdomen, whatever

being in love with ur friend like entirely platonically is insane. like. hey, i love you so much by the way. i carry a part of you in me, so if were apart ill still do things that will remind me of you because i got it from you. hey man i know were talking right now but i miss you. i love you

I NEED YOUR HELP TO SPREAD THIS

This blog in the photo accompaninstuo91 does not have a proper blog. When you click on their blog, an image pops up asking you if you're 18 and if you say yes or no, it directs you to a virus/porn site that isnt on tumblr

The bots are evolving to actively redirect you/ give viruses to you

Please reblog this so you dont fall victim. Do not click follow or try to go onto their blog, instead the only way to report them is to click the little three dots and click report

@staff please stop shit like this

Hi everybody. I know this sounds super scary, but

  1. This blog doesn't do anything special. It uses the custom theme feature of tumblr to have a link out to an external site. You can see I'm highlighting the link here, and it's telling me what link it'll take me to. (a useful tip for knowing what a link leads to! use this to detect rickrolls!)
  2. That's the same as if I linked to fakepornographywebsite.gov in my post, except much harder to accidentally click on. If you don't click the link, you're perfectly safe.
  3. Even if you do click the link, you're still safe. Web browsers are designed to be reasonably idiot-proof. Keep your browser up-to-date and don't run anything you download from untrusted sites.
  4. Download uBlock Origin to automatically block sites like this (with an optional override if there's a false positive on a site that's actually fine).
  5. This account (@accompanincestuo91) been around since 2018 and hasn't done anything since then. pretty harmless as bots go.
  6. @'ing staff (or humans, wip, changes, or god forbid, staff member's personal blogs) isn't the right way to report issues with tumblr. Make a support ticket or report a blog. These will get you noticed faster, and I'm sure they're easier to track and much less annoying for staff.

Thanks! Please remember, when somebody tells you it's important that you take action (including reblogging) without thinking, that's your signal to stop and think.

I just can’t fucking believe there were so many trilobites for so long and they’re supposedly just gone, completely? They were as common or more common than crustaceans in all the same marine environments and you’re telling me not ONE had what it took to survive as long as crabs or shrimp or isopods? Nowhere? How can that possibly be. There has to be one somewhere, some tiny flea sized one in some undersea cave we never found.

Surprised to find how many people thought that anything alive today was descended or even related to them. Not a bit! They were their own branch of arthropods that unfortunately ended completely. Crustaceans like isopods and triops have none of the same anatomical features and evolved independently.

Horseshoe crabs, meanwhile, were already a thing and are actually arachnids like spiders :)

It’s still hotly debated whether horseshoe crabs are arachnids or whether they’re their own branch of chelicerates, like pycnogonids. Ask 10 arachnologists where Xiphosura belongs and you’ll get 11 different answers. In the last decade we’ve had an increasing number of studies suggesting that ‘Arachnida’ is a paraphyletic group which horseshoe crabs do belong somewhere within, and that Xiphosura itself is paraphyletic. It’s unlikely that horseshoe crabs are arachnids, in part, because the validity of Arachnida is uncertain, and it’s still most common to simply refer to them as “chelicerates” in papers.
