Pick Tumblr's Favorite Pokemon, Day 108!!

Here's today's batch of pokemon! Who's your favorite? Remember, these first rounds are not single elimination - every pokemon with at least 9.5% of the vote will move on! (Note: the previous polls in this initial round were judged at 10% rounded, so i will be staying at that criteria to keep it fair)

Also, congrats to yesterday's winners

I’ve decided that all bats fall somewhere on this horrid little graph I’ve devised. Here are some prime examples of the various Creature Varieties found in nature.

Hi OP no notes I just wanted to add some more guys because I have disorders

You’re so correct about all of these and it is our human right to be incredibly disordered about bats online. Thank you. Let’s go take ibuprofen together.

What's up friends it turns out that the rhubarb plant I found last year and transplanted into a full-sun spot and got SUPER hype about because look how BIG it's getting...!

was actually burdock. I DID find this out by taking a big bite of a stalk and noting it was weirdly hollow before

thanks for asking

Oh no, you must've misheard me. I never said morally GRAY, I said morally GAY. As in he takes a certain homosexual approach to dealing with ethical dilemmas. Also he's killed 200 people

I’m sorry but this description of Jarlaxle goes hard as FUCK

Here's a fun game: Let's start giving Jarlaxle (and other LoD characters) Homeric epithets.

Ever-gaudy Jarlaxle and ever-scheming Jarlaxle are the ones that immediately come to mind for my boy. Rainbow-cloaked Jarlaxle would be a fun one for calling out one of his favorite accessories.

Sybil Ramkin: ah yes i love my swamp dragons that are small, pathetic, and could explode at any minute

Vimes: *is small, pathetic, and so full of rage and/or nerves he could explode any minute*

Sybil: hot damn

Guards! Guards! is the story of a pitiful, generally despised runt who turns putrid chemicals and his own stubborn refusal to give up into victory, and woos a large, powerful female in the process.

There’s also a bit about a dragon.

if you could send one (1) elf who died in the First Age to Rivendell shortly before the War of the Ring, who would you choose?

rules:

  • they'll get sent forward at the moment of their death (there's a corpse left behind)
  • they are still injured and will need medical attention
  • they aren't told anything and they don't have any additional knowledge, just what they knew when they died

that genre of male online food personality that's marked by a fetishistic obsession with wagyu beef and bone marrow and getting the perfect rock-hard crust on a steak and they all sell their own line of spice blends.. there's no joke or further observation here they're just so grotesquely interesting.

when they do that thing where they drag a knife over a steak after they cook it so you can hear how much it sounds like pulling a rake across concrete, that's actually a mating call so that all the other nearby dudes with beard silhouette branding know that they're in heat

@catboycrimsonrain I'm actually going to kill you in the Akashic Fucking Records for this

What is that thing they do where they cut the meat open and zoom in with the camera and press/squeeze it so ALL the liquid in it just oozes out everywhere. Is this accessory to the knife thing because it usually happens proximal to the knife thing

"What if I'm not trans, what if I'm choosing to be trans for [list of reasons]"

I am grabbing you by the shoulders and shaking you like a can of soda. If, for whatever reason, you looked within yourself and decided to be trans - you're still trans. We (as trans people) don't need to have an "I always knew" story. We don't need to have the ~magical transsexual gene~. It's incredibly hard for so many of us to figure out why we're trans, and if being trans was always a choice, the reasons for choosing to be trans would be complex. If being trans is always a choice, that doesn't negate that we deserve human dignity and respect for who we are.

It shouldn't matter if you chose your trans identity or not, becayse you still are a person. You breath the same air I do, and you deserve to live how you want, on your terms. You watch the same sunrises and sunsets I do, you are here. I, for one, welcome you no matter what your inner reflections are about your transness. You have a place in this world, you have inherent worth.
