i know we talk a lot about toby schmitz’s excellent delivery of some truly wonderful dialogue, but truly nothing will ever top this line from season 1

when richard siken said “I want to tell you this story without confessing anything [...] I want to tell you this story without having to be in it”

yeah

Reblog for a miracle to happen tonight

I didn’t see this in the notes yet. So. If you crash cars with someone. You stop, you pull over to the side if you can, you don’t leave. If someone is hurt or crying, call 911 or your emergency number. Never hurts to get checked out. You write down the other person’s license plate and car make and model and colour, and get their driver’s license number. You write down what happened and how it happened. If you both can drive and no one is hurt you can go after exchanging information (don’t try to agree on what happened. Don’t make deals with the person.)

When you get home, call your car insurance provider. Describe the damage to your car and any injuries and how it happened. They’ll ask for the info I told you to get above.

You’ll probably have to take your car to a registered provider who can get an insurance approved quote for repairs.

See your doctor if you are still shaky after a couple of hours. Whiplash gets worse for the first few days so you might think you’re fine but when the adrenaline wears off, you’re not. Symptoms include headache dizziness nausea as well as neck and back pain.

If you see an accident happen, don’t leave. Be the one to call the emergency number if people are injured or not getting out of their car and walking around. Give your phone number and name to both people or to the emergency providers and expect a call from the insurance company. They’ll ask you to tell them what you saw. Be honest.

Drive safe out there, and be prepared. You can call your dad later and he’ll be so proud of you for handling it.

Shoutout to the maned wolf, which is technically neither wolf nor fox but has its own genus called Chrysocyon! Why -

why are your legs so long?

I mean, intellectually, I understand that it’s because you live in grasslands and have evolved to be able to see over the grass, but emotionally… why? Are they?? Like that??? Surely there was a way to make your body more cohesive and proportional-looking?

i will never shut up about maned wolves

just look at it

look at this

one of the animals for sure

wretched beast

If it’s neither wolf nor fox, then it’s cat software running on giraffe hardware.

I think y'all should know that the closest relative to the maned wolf is the bush dog which looks like this.

I was not ready for corgi-bear.

you're definitely not ready for the maned wolf Front Angle then

Brazil just banned Twitter wdym 😭😭😭

Brazilian here! Brazil didn't Ban twitter. Here's what happened:

Brazilian justice subpoena'd Twitter as a company for the information of 7 accounts of people who are under investigation for being involved with the unconstitutional riot of January 7, 2022, led by far right figures who refused to accept the election results after known military criminal Jair Bolsonaro was not reelected. Rather than comply, Elon decided to close Twitter offices in Brazil, as he believes the due process is an infrigement on freedom of speech, for some reason. Because it is illegal under Brazilian law for any business to operate in Brazil without a local legal representative, the Supreme Court demanded the company appoint one in order to continue operating in Brazilian territory. Elon refused. Therefore, as per Brazilian Law, Twitter is no longer permitted to operate in national territory. This can be reversed once Twitter appoints a legal representative of Twitter in Brazil.

This is not a political act of censorship onto Brazilian people. It is a consequence of Elon Musk's failure to comply with Brazilian Law. In short: Brazil didn't ban Twitter, Twitter left Brazil.

holy shit its so much worse. i thought it was a content moderation issue. like “hey you have nazis on you site that not allowed here” and musk said piss off. i didnt know there were specific people actually under investigation for crime.

To anyone considering not voting because of the Palestinian genocide, I have this to ask:

How many Palestinian people do you think you're helping by laying back and inviting the GOP to crush you under foot? Self flagellation didn't cure The Plague, and it won't fix this situation either.

If you don't like the idea of voting for Harris, I doubt I'll be able to change your mind, but consider this: 468 congressional seats out of a total 535 are up for re-election THIS NOVEMBER. You want to make the government start actually representing the will of the people? Start there.

We're living in frightening times, and apathy is a very comfortable state of being, but you need to act. If you don't, who will?

THIS IS HUGE!!!! Right outside of New York City, wow!!

Little baby sharks,,, hunting squids and fish,,,, basking in the warm water,,,

They all grow up in fucking Long Island?
