Yeah, like the bird.

hi do y'all mind if i misuse this blog entirely for a second. idk why i'm asking i don't actually care they found a new snake it's a New Snake we didn't know about this snake before!!!!

NEW SNAKE HELL YEAH!!!!

hot damn this is so fucking great but the mild perturbation that snake expresses is deeply fucking funny

like you're moisturized, flourishing, in your lane, and this bastard noodly creature from Beyond shows up to flail it's many extraneous appendages around in sheer joy that you exist. and this is a little bit weird so you go to the next aisle over in the grocery store.

I love everything about this. The gorgeous incredibly beautiful and majestic snake. And Prof. Freek Vonk snorkeling past in what appears to be business casual clothing and sneakers.

More information here—the snake was documented after the scientists received an invitation from the indigenous Huaorani people to study the snakes, which are considered by them to be sacred.

It is 5.5% genetically different from the other green anaconda species, which makes it very special (humans and chimpanzees are only about 2% different according to the article)

For those asking, I know it says 2021 but the petition is current. And the number is the the number for resistbot. It’s a bot that helps you contact your representatives with issues that are important to you. I’ve been using it for a while, and it makes it easy to sign letters and petitions and get them to your representatives quickly. It also texts you periodically with similar movements you might be interested in.

Boomers are like you couldn’t make Seinfeld today bc the woke mob would cancel it meanwhile every five seconds I see a tumblr post that’s like here’s my idea for an episode of Seinfeld where Jerry starts going by They/He. Idk what point there is to be made here but it does suggest something

It suggests that whilst Seinfeld was never exactly going out of its way to be outwardly progressive, it was a reflection of the values of the society it was born out of. The characters, whilst brilliant, were purely comedic with very little emotional depth or backstory given to them and therefore existed purely as vessels for comedy and thus they translate very easily to the modern day. George would absolutely get himself cancelled online but not because he’s a bigot, but because he’s an idiot who would think it was OK to make a bad taste joke. Elaine would go out of her way to be overly accepting of everyone’s identities and sexualities, not because she’s a good person but because she’s obsessed with everyone else’s image of her as a good person. Those archetypes can be taken very easily from the society of the early 1990s and the values there to the society and values of the 2020s without losing any sense of their core. 

The mark of a good sitcom cast is that you can drop them into pretty much any situation and they'll all react to it in ways that are both different and funny

there's a twitter account called "Modern Day Seinfeld" and when I tell you they are so spot on I mean I forget they're not real episodes because they are THAT on point.

god damn this is a QUILT ('late day shadows' by nancy messier)

[“Because emotionally immature people have little awareness of feelings and a limited vocabulary for emotional experiences, they usually act out their emotional needs instead of talking about them. They use a method of communication known as emotional contagion (Hatfield, Rapson, and Le 2007), which gets other people to feel what they’re feeling.

Emotional contagion is also how babies and little children communicate their needs. They cry and fuss until their caretakers figure out what’s wrong and fix it. Emotional contagion from an upset baby to a concerned adult is galvanizing, motivating a caretaker to do anything necessary to calm the child. Emotionally immature adults communicate feelings in this same primitive way. As parents, when they’re distressed they upset their children and everyone around them, typically with the result that others are willing to do anything to make them feel better. In this role reversal, the child catches the contagion of the parent’s distress and feels responsible for making the parent feel better. However, if the upset parent isn’t trying to understand his or her own feelings, nothing ever gets resolved. Instead the upsetting feelings just get spread around to others, so that everyone reacts without understanding what is truly the matter.”]

Would that I could turn back the hand of time and warn the onion staffer who penned this piece. “Is it worth it,” I would ask. “Is it worth it?”

truly a cultural reset

All right, guys, the rest of tonight is (possibly) going to be spent tracking the progress on the Ever Given, a 400-meter-long container ship that ran aground in the Suez Canal and is currently struck. 

LOOK AT THIS. 

Because, yes, if that picture doesn’t clue you into just HOW BIG OF A PROBLEM THIS IS…

ALL OF THIS

Just look at this disaster.

oh this is dated March 23 this is TODAY

Yes, I just checked the Marine Traffic website and this is live:

I feel a need to give some context here. This isn’t some just blocking off a random port in some region of whatever country.

THIS FUCKER IS STOPPING A LOT OF SHIT some days you may fuck up bad. But you never fuck up this bad.

Update 24/3/2021: still stuck

(its wavebreaker/bulbous bow will be dug into the canal wall at least five meters under there, and you can see by the red waterline markings that the bow has ridden UP, which means that enormously heavy ship is not floating in front and therefore no tug is going to be able to haul that free. I believe they’re going to offload cargo next to lighten it)

Also this is the perfect gif:
