I mean, as someone who as worked in a zoo, this is fairly true.

Obvious disclaimer that you shouldn't have wild animals as pets.

But like, cheetahs are the only large cats that keepers will do free contact with. Hell, even most small cats don't get free contact. (Because small cats can be VICIOUS. They'll have a baby pallas cat wearing thicker gloves than when handling an owl. Because small cats can just be vicious.)

Like I think the only other cat at our zoo where I've seen free contact with was servals? Because I know they've used servals in shows to demonstrate their natural jumping ability. But I know servals can sometimes have a mean temper as well. Meanwhile they'll do the cheetah run and afterwards put the mic by the cheetahs and it's just like an engine with them purring. It's fascinating to watch when the message in every other large animal is "no free contact because it's dangerous even when they're born in captivity".

Legit if any wild animal could be adapted to a pet it would be cheetahs lmao. Only problem is they can be skittish and very anxious and that's why they're often raised around dogs in zoos to gain confidence.

I had to read a Heinlein book for a literature class on sci-fi and it was HORRIBLE and the only thing that got me though it was thinking "it's time for more Deep Thoughts With Heinlein(tm)" what a strange man this author was...

my working theory is that the most foundational works of literature in a given genre are the ones that inspire the most concepts and tropes that are carried forward in the genre and this inspiring property is frequently because there is, to simplify, something deeply wrong with them

[non-cannon]

So, uh... following that train of thought... what's deeply wrong with the Lord of the Rings?

[comicaurora]

Johnald Ronald Rolkien Tolkien built fifteen different elvish languages and wrote poetry in all of them and you ask me what was wrong with him

US based DV Advocate reporting live from my day off.

Predictable increase times, an incomplete list:

Holidays - not just the major ones either. Memorial day, labor day, and the 4th of July are all days with celebrations that center primarily around drinking. Juneteenth makes racists mad, so they pick fights with whoever is closest (their partner).

Sporting events - from the national to the babby's first concussion league. Weird increase in calls? Check the local child league game schedules.

Bad weather - I'm talking really bad weather. Wind storm knocks out power? Call increase. Thunderstorm floods half the town? Call increase. Blizzard piles snow too high to get out of the house? Call increase.

First freeze of the season - a lot of homeless couples are extremely dysfunctional and abusive, and the freeze is usually the tipping point.

Election season - see also: town council meetings about big topics.

The first couple of really warm weeks in summer - these calls are nearly always based around arguments that start out being about swimwear.

Police academy graduation season - [stares directly into the camera]

Ofc this is based entirely on my experience at work, idk if this holds true across the nation/world, etc etc

Here's my real tip for anyone moving out on their own for the first time; when you buy a set of measuring cups or spoons buy ones that have the measurement engraved into the cup/spoon and do NOT buy ones where it's just printed on. Because that ink/paint/ect. can rub off and then you'll have a bunch of useless little spoons and cups you have to get rid of bcs they no longer say what size they are. Don't ask me how I know, just trust me that you wanna buy engraved ones.

Hey kids, you need to start worrying a little less about getting “#mogged” and a little more about getting “#smogged”. This is an Air Quality Index public service announcement.

look behind you i was inspired by this photo, i didn’t see what it was at first :’) decided to make it a little environment drawing practice. [image description: a field full of wildflowers and tall grass, lit orange from the rising sun. it is early morning, and the distance is misty. amidst the tall grass is a hunched silhouette of a figure, with two horns and two round bright eyes.]

I honestly think Gen-Z and younger simply does not understand how recent widespread smartphone adoption is.

I am not that old, and I didn't have a smartphone until probably late high school. For most of my life, many if not most people were not walking around with a magic internet machine in their pocket that they pulled out and used constantly for everything.

[sandumilfshous]

reblog if you remember having to ration your text messages and accidentally opening the internet on your phone was the end of the world

They’re calling emojis “hieroglyphs” again and I should be allowed to do a little grievous bodily harm as a treat. The only way you escape is if you can show me examples of a tense system, a nominal phrase, and an adverb using emojis. If not, well, then it’s clobbering time.

Failure.

Where are your prepositions? A definite article can be inferred, but ones like “to” or “in” cannot be as they convey something essential.

Where are your pronouns? How do these change between 1st, 2nd, and 3rd person? I don’t see an emoji for “himself” that is clearly defined as that and nothing else.

Where is the temporal case? “Last night” isn’t conveyed purely by a moon. A moon does convey a sense of night, but it doesn’t have temporal marker. It could be last night, tonight, or tomorrow night. The hieroglyphic script can write words that take grammatical markers to indicate the temporal, emojis do not.

A person with green hair does not accurately convey the concept of “front man”

What are the phonemes of each sign? Can they be used to build other words where the depiction of the sign has little to no meaning in relation to the word it is writing. For instance, 𓁹 can be used in the word jr.t “eye” but also the verb “ir” to make/do.

Clobbering time!

Came across this art installation, Liza Lou's Kitchen, at the Whitney Museum of American Art, NYC. It's a kitchen made of tiny glass beads, that artist Liza Lou did, taking 5 yrs. to complete, from 1991 - 1996.

My favorite part is the sink.

Details of a recipe book.

All the details in tiny glass beads.

Love the pie in the oven.

Love this so much.

No wonder it took 5 yrs.

there's something so deeply dystopian to me how tech companies don't understand that a forced convenience is not a convenience at all. i'm sure autocorrect is helpful for many, but a function that forcibly changes my actual written words and punctuation is taking away my language. photo filters can be nice but i need to choose using them myself or else i have lost the ability to take the picture i want. i don't want a machine to draw or write for me. taking away the option for me to do things manually feels like violence!!!! all this talk of endless opportunity, why are you RESTRICTING me

A Superman short story by Scott Kurtz and Karl Kerschl (September 2, 2021)

In 2013, Scott Kurtz tweeted randomly that he had written a short Superman story. He asked if anyone wanted to take a crack at illustrating it. I said yes. Scott sent me his short script and it was great. It captured the simplicity and positivity that I always long for in a Superman story, and it was only five pages long! I started drawing it in my spare time and finally got around to finishing it eight years later. ~ Karl Kerschl
