every morning i wake up and make the worst possible time management decisions anyone has ever made
Made this and queued it on my last account. So glad I didn't lose it.

Beep boop! I look for accidental haiku posts. Sometimes I mess up.

This is the standard winged nightjar and it has one singular stupidly big feather on each wing... if you even care.
Love this guy
That’s standard as in “pennant” or “banner”, not standard as in “normal”.
But it’s not a pennant-winged nightjar. THIS is a pennant-winged nightjar… if you even care.
can’t forget the Lyre-tailed Nightjar! there’s actually a number of these ridiculous guys, and they’re partly why caprimulgiforms are some of my favorite birds
also the Sickle-winged Nightjar, which is. come on, that’s just a weird moth
(Whispers) talk about their mouths now
and if we’re going to make this onto a full-on nightjar weirdness appreciation post, I feel like I’ve got to mention their pectinate claws:
photo from here:
comb-shaped claws on the middle toe have evolved multiple times among a diverse variety of birds, found in nightjars, barn owls, herons, frigatebirds, and a few other groups. and despite looking exactly like they’re used for preening out feather parasites, they might have other uses for keeping birds clean that we haven’t yet identified:
i love that the phrase is “in love” like love is a place. like somewhere you could live.
They should invent a type of life where you don’t have to work to survive

one time a casual hockey fan tried to convey this experience to me from the other side as: “it’s like… okay, imagine that you like donuts, and you meet a guy who also likes donuts, and you’re like, hey, cool, we both like donuts! but this guy… he built his house out of donuts”
so now when I trip into a new fandom I’m like “oh shit I’m building this house out of donuts”

The Original Rainbow Pride Flag (1978) by Gilbert Baker.
As this post gets popular every June, I would like to remind people a few things about it!
- The pink stripe is there, it's just hard to see
- It's displayed this way to protect the flag
- Gilbert Baker was not Jewish
- It likely came from many sources of inspiration, including: -The promise of the rainbow in the Bible (Baker was raised Methodist) -"She's a Rainbow" by the Rolling Stones -The American Hippie Movement -The Flag of the Races -The general symbolism of rainbows in mythology and culture
yes yes you’re very beautiful. Bewitching, even. AWFUL parking job, by the way
