i have yet to see tumblr's mature content filter actually flag any mature content on my dash. it's basically always shit like this

[meangirlnurse]

i have to admit, it does make me contemplate the latent eroticism of art pieces that i would not have considered erotic without the label

I don’t have parasocial relationships with my mutuals, but I do have parasocial relationships with their pets

Here's a video of Ve'nari eating a cricket (already thoroughly chewed)

Solifuges have crazy chelicerae. They are not venomous, and thus rely on pure force to kill their prey. Here is a gif showing their chewing mechanism.

I needed this this morning

[cruelfeline]

A few days ago, one of my colleagues saw a one year old kitty for sudden onset seizures. First thought was idiopathic epilepsy, but:

Turned out that someone in the family had brought lilies into the house and put them up high, thinking that the cat wouldn't get to them. Alas, even a lick of pollen from lilies causes fatal kidney damage in cats.

Said cat was not epileptic. Her kidneys were fried, so she lost her life at one year of age.

If you have cats in the house, that means no lilies, no matter how high up they are.

[magicman1972]

No lilies. Ever. Not even once. If someone gives you a bouquet with lilies, throw the lilies out before you ever bring those flowers into your house. Just breathing the pollen in the air can kill a cat.

If you have cats, please take this seriously. No lilies.

This piece is one of my favorites in the entire ROM collection; ‘Dream Cloud’ is carved from one piece of boulder opal mined in Australia.  It’s an impressive piece, large enough to fill the palm of your hand.

I am amused when I see something I saw previously that I've forgotten in the interim. "Wow, that's beautiful!" goes to heart it, already hearted.
