if i didn't know any better, i'd say dracula didn't learn the first time, and one again ate an entire crew and now doesn't know how to stear the ship

We don’t even need a disney remake of Mulan. Look at this.

I would totally watch more Disney reboots if children from the actual ethnicities were cast in those movies.

These children are from 小戏骨 xiao-xi-gu(little trouper) program of Hunan Broadcasting System. They have recreated many classic Chinese drama such as Dream of the Red Chamber, White Snake, My Own Swordsman, Water Margin, Dong Yong and the Seventh Fairy and so on. Here are some gifs from their version of Dream of the Red Chamber.

I LOVE THIS SO MUCH

You know what else fucks me up? Algae.

This is a single-celled organism.

I see doubt in the notes so just wanted to say that YES, this is a unicellular organism! This is a species from a genus of green algae called Caulerpa, which are a siphonous algae. The frond shapes, the “rhizomes” it grows from, and the “roots” it extends into substrate are all extensions of a single multi-nucleate cell. Here’s what a siphonous alga looks like under a microscope, with no divisions in its cytoplasm:

It’s not the only algae like this, either! Caulerpa is a member of order Bryopsidales, which are all siphonous. Here’s some more macroscopic single cell algae: Codium fragile, or dead man’s fingers. This one is a single long noodle of a cell with swollen growths on the outside called urtricles, packed together to create a firm “skin.”

Halimenia, a calcified algae whose shed growths are responsible for a lot of the beautiful white sand on tropical beaches:

Acetabularia or mermaid’s wine glass, the adorable mushrooms of the sea:

Algae? Is actually very cool. And you can’t convince me otherwise.
