Zoos prevent extinction. This is why I support zoos. This is why the world should support zoos.
Meme credit goes to the zookeepers at www.facebook.com/ZoosSavingSpecies @zoossavingspecies
THIS.
After volunteering at my local zoo for 3 years, I still had friends and family members preaching to me how zoos are animal jail. No. They’re not. A lot of animals would be extinct without them. Yea, there are bad zoos, but you hear about those more because news focuses on bad things.
This is what I do guys! This is the sort of work I’m involved in. Make sure you support good zoos and not the backyard kinds with squalid conditions though!
This is what happens whenever the Woke Folk don’t bother to educate themselves on something before getting outraged about it. “Zoos and aquariums are evil you guys! I know because I saw part of a documentary on Netflix about it now I’m an expert zoologist!”
u can tell who the ancients of tumblr are bc they’re the ones not posting anything abt where to find them if this site collapses…we know this site isnt going anywhere….the apocalypse couldnt stop this garbage…..it has the cybernetic code of a cockroach
those of us who’ve been on tumblr 5+ years:
this should be the most reblogged post on tumblr before it dies
PSA - How to Export your Tumblr Blog
Remember a few months ago when it felt like every single website in existence updated their privacy policy? That was because of GDPR, the General Data Protection Regulation from the EU.
Another part of GDPR? Right of access / right to data portability.
What this means is that if you ask for it, companies are to give you access to your data so that you could theoretically move it to another service. Many companies have done this by allowing you to export your data and download it. Even if a company doesn’t provide an automated way, you should still be able to contact them and they should provide your data - it doesn’t have to be automatically generated and downloadable.
Tumblr does provide an automated way to export your blog. This should be done individually for each sideblog as well, if you want. (These are instructions for the website - not the app.)
Go to your blog settings page, ie https://www.tumblr.com/settings/blog/<your-blog-name>.
Look for the Export section (currently at the bottom)
Click the “Export <your-blog-name>” button.
Depending on the size of your blog, it may take a while to generate the export. It will say that it’s processing, and you can reload the page and come back later to check if it’s done.
When your export is processed and ready, the Export section will have a button to download.
Once you’ve downloaded the file, extract it to a folder on your computer. It will contain:
A media folder with images, gifs, videos, and audio files.
A messages xml file. Your messages are in here, even if it doesn’t look “human readable” and is gibberish to you, I promise. There are tools that will “beautify” xml to make it more readable.
A posts.zip file. Extract this and you’ll see an html folder that has an html file for each of your posts.
Holy shit they finally did it. BTW, the size of the export varies wildly based on how much media content is on your blog. I’ve got a main and a sideblog with a little over 6000 posts each, one a bit heavier on text, the other skewing more towards photosets and the like. The zip files are 3 gigs and 11 gigs respectively.
Hm. I should do this with the boys’ blogs just in case. I backup their photos, but I do love the silly stories that we post on their pages, too.
Sense8 | Season 3 unsolved mysteries?
GUYS WE MIGHT GET A 3RD SEASON
Okay so there’s gonna be a rewatch in December, and everyone who wants the show to continue needs to rewatch the eps and tweet the heck out of it!!!
If enough people watch the show and talk about it, Netflix will renew it.
So please, please, boost this announcement, and be loud.
This just kind of feels like one of those perfect moments that you dream about. Except in my dream I’m holding a nice cup of tea.

there’s no shame in admitting that none of us have any concept of how big a whale is
Once in the 3rd grade, we were learning about marine life. The material we were reading said that baby blue whales are around 50 feet long when they’re born. Our teacher stopped, realizing that a bunch of 8-9 year olds had no actual concept of how big that was, so she took us all out to the schoolyard with a tape measure. Now this tape measure only went up to 10 feet, so she had to mark off 5 total 10 foot increments. And when she was done, standing 50 feet away from us, she yelled back “And this is only a baby! Can you imagine how big adult blue whales are?” And let me tell you, the stunned, profound silence that came from this group of 12 normally chatty children still haunts me to this day. Every time I think about how big whales are, I remember that spring day in the 3rd grade.
This is a brilliant way of SHOWING rather than TELLING to teach. And I love that the teacher did this but all I can focus on is YOU HAD A CLASS OF TWELVE?! Good lord I hate the fucking US education system. I don't think I ever had fewer than 20 (and often far more than that).
It has begun!
It’s finally time… >>
👏🏻👏🏻✨BUY ART, SAVE BIRDS✨👏🏻👏

You voted for the Silent Forest campaign to help fight the songbird extinction crisis. Illustrations are available for preorder for 30 days.
The critically endangered Bali Myna, Javan Green Magpie, and Nias Hill Myna.
There is one more bird I illustrated that is very special, her name is Esa… she’s the last of her kind. Esa was rescued from the Jakarta bird market and currently lives at the Cikananga Conservation Breeding Centre (CCBC). Researchers are trying to find others like her, but have so far been unsuccessful.
The special Esa print is also available for preorder through the GoFundMe site.
Stickers are also available for the all of Silent Forest’s flagship species. Check the award levels and leave a comment with your donation with your selection.
Your support has meant the world to me!
House Republicans are changing the way Congress calculates the cost of transferring federal lands to the states and other entities.
If you have ever gone camping, visited a national park, or admired wildlife in their natural habitat, you should be concerned. If you give even the remotest fuck about the environment, you need to call up your house representatives and make your feelings known. There are over 3 million acres of public land being targeted here.
I know the ‘contact your representatives/call this person in the government’ cries are probably getting old. But you guys. They’re trying to make it possible to sell federal lands so they can be absolutely demolished by logging, mining, development, etc. The GOP is already planning to dismantle the Endangered Species Act of 1973 - doing so would undercut all the protections some species and natural landscapes have.
They’re literally paving paradise to put up a fucking parking lot.
DC locals fucking with inauguration tourists was easily one of the best things to happen this weekend
But…why? If they were politely asking a question, giving someone false information just because you don’t agree with them is pretty shitty.
counterpoint: eat my asshole with ketchup and mustard
It wasn't false information - it was just an alternative fact.
I see so much hurt and so much fear – no, not even simple fear, but abject terror – amongst my friends today. Already I see people I care deeply about panicking. Pleas for people to call them and pleas for the numbers to suicide prevention hotlines have been more present in my social media feeds than I can stomach. If you are happy and safe as you go outside today then I urge you to look around you. In your ‘victory’, do not step blithely past those that are grief stricken or frightened. For so many, this does not feel like a simple matter of their preferred candidate losing but rather, this feels like America has drawn targets on their backs and announced a four year long open season.
So today, tomorrow, and every day (but especially for the next four years) I urge you. I beg you. Be kind. Love one another. Do not stand by. Do not be moved by hate or by fear. When faced with the unthinkable, we must become the unbreakable.
the fact that this is supposed to be a normal political process but there are posts all over my dash begging people not to kill themselves says more than i ever could
I don’t know the amount of times I have sat in history class and wondered how someone like Hitler could have ever gotten far enough in government to have that kind of power, but now I’m watching it happen live in the U.S and I’m terrified.
