Grizzly 399 is so cool! I went to her Wikipedia page intending to screenshot interesting facts about her, but I would really recommend you go check out the whole thing for yourself.

Grizzly 399 lives in close proximity to humans but has never caused problems or attacked a human - she has taught her many cubs important skills like looking both ways before crossing the road. She has had more triplets than is normal for grizzlies, and is far better at keeping triplets alive than less experienced mothers.

She had 22 progeny, (though not all survived) including Grizzly 610, who in 2011 adopted one of 399’s triplets along with her own two cubs. 399 previously went viral on social media for keeping her quadruplets alive through two seasons, despite bear cubs only having a 55% survival rate.

The Internet seemed to really like the previews I posted of NYC bullying Spider-Man, so here is that episode in its entirety. Enjoy!

The funniest thing in the world to me is when people write mermaids that are bothered by humans eating fish. Like do you think fish don’t eat each other? The ocean is full of little freaks that will eat whatever or whoever the fuck will fit in their mouths. If the mermaids haven’t been eating fish this whole time what do you think they’ve been eating? If the answer is humans, that doesn’t make it any less funny. They’ll eat the species that looks like the top half of them but won’t eat a species that looks like the bottom half? Peak comedy.

This bothered me when I was a tiny little kid and the little mermaid was a brand new disney movie. I loved it but I knew that almost all their sea creature friends were predators and that there isn’t much actual plant life in the ocean anyway. Now as an adult I feel like the issue is that they just don’t like humans eating THEIR fish.

Mermaid are more closely related to whales and dolphins then fish, but since they have human intellect and sentience they also have fish like we have dogs. Sure you can eat a wolf but if someone ate your dog you would beat them within an inch of your life.

stop tagging this saying shit like “me and jakey!!! 🥺”

Hi! I’m an afab nb with major social anxiety and my partner is an amab, masc-presenting nb who babies me appropriately, I know this is talking about straight couples but like. You can’t tell by just looking at stick figures, just like you can’t tell my partner and I are nonbinary just by looking. Straight-passing queer couples exist and don’t deserve hate just for appearing straight. Straight couples can even have queer individuals involved, one or both could be binary trans, or one or both could be bi.

I hope nonbinary Jakey also dies

His greatest advice

there are very few ancient artifacts that make me more emotional than roman tombstones that thank the reader for stopping by and wish them well. there's simply something so sweet and gentle to me about imagining a traveler stopping along the road to read someone's final dedication and being sent away with the blessings of a thankful ghost

marcus caecilius: good luck and good health to you. sleep without a care.

me:

You're wrong. He's not addressing it to just some traveller walking on some Roman road. He's addressing it to you. To each and every person reading those words. He wishes well even from behind his grave with words of great comfort, because even the Romans appreciated good sleep. In a sense we're all just some travellers, stumbling upon different stuff, wandering aimlessly on the web. And thanks to you, his words still could find their way into the hearts of many. It's what he'd wish for. Thank you.

reblog this post to let the mutual you reblogged this from know that you still like them

Apparently there's an evolutionary theory that the reason why Africa has so much wild big-ass megafauna while the big-ass megafauna on all the other continents went extinct is because they evolved right beside humans, and knew us well enough to not get hunted into extinction.

So while everything from giant koalas to giant sloths barely had the time to think "what the fuck is that" before getting pierced by a spear and getting their bone marrow gently fed to babies and the toothless elderly, Africa had elephants who had all the time in the world to learn to tell apart human languages and teach the next generations of their herd which human sounds mean that this tribe won't hurt you, but humans who make this kind of sounds are a danger. And hippos learned to conclude "I think I'll fuck up this two-legged weird shit on sight."

That’s true about African Elephants being able to distinguish between human languages, BTW.

The original study they did on this is really cool, and it showed that not only can elephants distinguish languages, they respond differently depending on the general age and gender of the person spekaing. The researchers played recordings of different people speaking either Maasai or Kamba. All the speakers were saying the same thing, "Look, look over there, a group of elephants is coming."

What they found is that when presented with voices speaking Kamba, the elephants were supremely unbothered. The Kamba are mostly farmers, many work for the park services, and they rarely present a danger to elephants.

When presented with the voices of adult men speaking Maasai, the elephants drew close to each other and started investigating. The Maasai are largely cattle herders, and they sometimes come into conflict with elephants over water and grazing lands.

However, the elephants did not seem nervous when presented with the voices of women or young boys speaking Maasai. They were aware that only humans with deep voices were a threat to them.

They also seem to recognize that if humans are talking, they aren't necessarily a threat. Humans pursuing large game like elephants are stealth hunters. If you can hear them coming, they're probably not trying to hurt you.

Anyway, elephants are amazing and one of the creatures high up on my list of "non-humans who are probably people."
