Love this cab - my local barcade has one
You’re on tumblr?!?!?!?!?!?!?! :O
Yeah. Too bad you’re not Mothman.
We need to better educate kids on the importance of animals that are typically hated because otherwise you end up with adults who think hating wasps is a personality.
Trufax: hatred of wasps is so widespread that it’s prevalent among biologists as well. An entire field full of people getting excited about species that nobody else has heard of, and many have collectively decided that wasps don’t need to be researched, even though they’re threatened by the same things that are threatening bees, and disappearance of wasps will spell bad things for the number of pests found in gardens and farms.
I have a friend wasp named Queeny. She built her nest on a really inconvenient area where I often dump my birds’ uneaten seed or shake towels out. She would come out angrily and buzz at us, ready to defend her home from the strange giants.
Queeny didn’t know that it was our porch she built her home on, she saw a nice ledge and decided that it was a suitable spot to begin her life as a lone female.
So instead of removing the nest and poisoning her with bug spray, you know what I did? I moved the area where I dump my things and started feeding her. I would tap three times on the railing before leaving a treat like fruit, honey, dog food, or pesky beetles I find in my garden, then move away to give them lots of space. At first she would buzz out, wings spread and ready to fight, but after doing this for just a few days…she stopped!
Now when she comes out, it’s slowly and non-threatingly. She tilts her head at me before gingerly inspecting the offerings. She doesn’t threaten my mom any more either, she’s learned that we mean no harm. We’ve started using that ledge to shake sheets out and dump bird seed and she doesn’t mind at all! She just watches quietly.
She even has a family now! Five daughters and one lad- a husband or son, not sure which lmao -who greet us the same, she must’ve taught them that we’re not enemies (or they just grew up used to us). They even protect my garden, since Queeny’s family has grown the invasive Japanese beetle population has plummeted! They really are delightful neighbors.
So, Boris Johnson wrote an essay in which he talked about the Sistine Chapel and then said : “There is nothing like it in Muslim art of that or any age, not just because it is beyond the technical accomplishment of Islamic art, but because it is so theologically offensive to Islam.”
BITCH
NOT TO MENTION the fact that the prohibition against direct images in Islam was actually the reason for the development of the incredible advances in higher mathematics of the Islamic Golden Age because they were required to create these structures. The Islamic World basically took the ban on images as a “hold my beer” thing and created an entire artistic culture based on mathematics and architecture where art and science fed into and glorified each other, 700 years before the Italian Renaissance.
In conclusion
i will say that islamic art drove me nuts as a kid because i did not have the math knowledge or capability to create such geometric patterns. it may have been the art of my people but by gOD it was difficult and unnecessarily difficult. however my pride in islamic art is neverending. it was frowned upon to be vain in the house, so artists would deck out the places of worship - but places of worship couldn’t be too garishly decorated, or it might detract from worship! the compromise? calm blues and greens, intricate details hidden into the complex patterns. carefully mapped out and planned patterns that were beyond complex and straight into deliberately confusing and practically impossible to replicate. not only that, but verses from the Quran were hidden along the walls, asking god for blessings and care.
muslim art is stunning and i’ll fight the bitch that says otherwise.
Also something underappreciated about the Islamic art is that not only is it geometrically incredible, but the geometry and structure of it has a purpose. In the niches and ceilings, the cascading ornamentation is used for acoustic purposes. In many of the mosques, they are so well laid out and designed that a single person standing on a specific spot can speak/sing/pray and be heard in every single part of the building.

Where does the eleventh letter go?
got a link for that hardware store reaction vid??
Sure, but I would also like to show you these tweets as context
And heres the video itself
I should add that looking I love looking at the notes here because it’s either people celebrating their fondness of weird al, their fondness of reaction videos, or my favorite: People who also have never heard Hardware Store and are reacting to it just like him.
I am so sorry for the person i am going to become if the fnaf trailer drops today
Like yes the movie may not be like exactly what everyone wants in terms of story, BUT this is SO HUGE for internet horror/internet media in general! This is one of the first big examples of an indie online IP going into the ACTUAL MEDIA MAINSTREAM. Like the next couple of years I believe is going to be HUGE for internet horror and this, I believe, is going to be the thing that causes everything to go over the edge. I am so excited
Does anyone want to see the museum gift shop item at a Civil War battleground that nearly made me pass out on the spot
Okay. Hear me out. Have you ever thought the sentence "This Union Army uniform isn't femme or serving cunt?" Can you even process that sentence without your brain attempting to liquify itself into an unthinking slurry? If so, open your wallet for...
THE UNION INFANTRY UNIFORM HAT FOR GIRLS!!
