i only fuck to shoegaze

respect the vision of these tags but a curb (segment of raised sidewalk) is not a type of animal 🚫🚫🚫🚫

gonna be honest nothing has fucked with my head more than learning that the UK only has three species of snake. like what do you mean three? three species with twelve subspecies? three native species but a ton of other nonnative ones? three species technically but it's an accident of ancient taxonomy?

nope. just three

for context the US state of Virginia alone has thirty four

Boy howdy, do I have some fun news for you about Ireland...

The UK truly is a barren rock devoid of natural diversity.

I think a lot of people are missing the point of this post, which is: a lot of ecological diversity has disappeared from the UK (and Ireland) as the result of direct human actions. Wolves, gray whales, bears, storks, snakes, frogs…everywhere in the world has its extinct species but the UK in particular has carried out culls of “undesirable” species in the past.

“The UK is one of the world's most nature-depleted countries - in the bottom 10% globally and last among the G7 group of nations, new data shows. 

It has an average of about half its biodiversity left, far below the global average of 75%, a study has found.”

So I can find this again! Great list!

Don’t lose this post

It’s finally happened.

After almost a decade on this site, I found another Tumblr user in the wild. I stopped to tie my shoe with rainbow laces this morning outside the silversmith at Colonial Williamsburg, and I heard it.

“I like your shoelaces.”

Oh. Oh no.

I responded the only way I could. “Thanks.” And then I reluctantly added, “I stole them from the president…and if that makes sense to you, I’m very sorry.”

The poor man, in full Colonial dress, stared at me for a long moment. And then burst into laughter. And said, “I haven’t thought about that in YEARS and this has never happened to me before.”

Yeah. Me neither. Not until today.

Tumblr rite of passage. Achievement unlocked.

@victoriansecret I found your friend!!!

THIS IS AMAZING

tbh if someone just handed me a pressure washer and set me loose in the streets i would go into a trance and just start hosing shit down indiscriminately. it's not a question of how much i could clean, but how long until i get hit by a car and die

as a huge lover of birds, 90% of the concern against wind turbines being used for energy is literally just pro fossil fuel propaganda. birds ARE at a risk however there is a lot of strategies even as simple as painting one of the blades that reduces a lot of accidental deaths. additionally renewable energy sources will do more in favor of the environment that would positively impact birds (and all of us). one study found over one million bird deaths from wind turbines. while that is a shockingly high number and we should work to drastically shrink it, at least 1.3 billion birds die to outdoor cats on a yearly basis. it was never about caring about birds

Why the fuck are you suggesting putting CHILDREN in a club?

So they can sip grey goose, maybe have a cig, and feel the rhythm? Are you the fun police?

My favorite thing about J. Jonah Jameson is that he just hates Spider-Man. He supports mutants and doesn't hate enhanced people. He's not racist, sexist, homophobic, or transphobic. He just hates Spider-Man. And I'm half convinced that he's faking for the publicity.

He'd probably get pissed if he hears someone hating on Spider-Man for being enhanced.

"Spiderman isn't a menace because he can climb walls! He's a menace because he's climbing walls without a license or safety equipment! He's setting a bad example!"

"I just want you to know that you that your identity as an enhanced person is valid. Your identity as Spiderman is trash."

EXACTLY! THANK YOU FOR THE FANMAIL. BIGOTRY IS WHAT’S RUINING THIS COUNTRY! BIGOTRY AND SPIDER-MAN!!

When I tell you that I wasn't expecting JJJ to be on Tumblr

I should've expected it. But I didn't

I made this, please feel free to use

I made this post a couple months ago, and I completely forgot that I made it

today has been one of the worst days of my entire life, and this post somehow made its way back to me, like a mental-health chef boyardee can.

it actually helped me a lot

have some more

Thank you for these. I love them and actually had them printed to go on my work desk but ended up giving them to a coworker. He has left them up.

the first rule of being on the internet is you should have other stuff going on, besides being on the internet
