omfg that is just too adorable
This will always be one of my favorite comics ever. It gives me warm fuzzies~
This is the most perfect.
This kitteh having a little halloween adventure is one of my favourite posts of all time :)
Every fall like clockwork this photo set pops up and we all must reblog it
ITS TIME
lady who picked up her laptop a minute ago gave me a little origami crow that was like a billion milligrams of dopamine directly into my brain
This is so
Unnecessary
how do you explain to someone that this is your sense of humour
“What could the audio possibly be?”
*unmutes*
“Oh,”
If I ever don’t laugh at this, assume I died.
I AM WEEPING
@slushyseals !!!!
Let him have the flappy strange pet!
Lil fella is like “omg! I didn’t know they could swim on that side of the glass too!”
fucking. what?
I feel like this picture really gives it context
you know how it is with spaghetti
?????
due to various scheduling issues of living across the country and being adults none of my friends except one could make it to my birthday so we decided to buy a cake and serve it to the people at a bar to just create a birthday party. which worked pretty well until my friend exitedly went "do you know what happened on this very important day?" to announce my birthday only for one girl to interrupt them even more exitedly with "the day germany standardised paper sizes!" which we all quickly agreed was an even better reason to eat cake.
which is how i ended up singing the sentence HAPPY BIRTHDAY, DEAR DIN A4 PAPER with a group of drunken strangers on my birthday, which is better than anything I could have planned in the first place.
Please enjoy this updated meme:
Aw yeah! The complete set!
i’m obsessed with this painting called tomato king and i’m even more obsessed with the man who drew it. his name is stuart dunkel and he is a classical oboeist and he also paints tiny little oil paintings of mice living their best lives. he looks like this.
HELL YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Is this the jelly bean guy???
@raevenlywrites the WHO???
The guy who does the mice with jelly beans
And dreidels, apparently
Scientists are very serious.
This is a post about science. And soup.
Dr. Elinne Becket, a microbiologist from Cal State University, is in the middle of one of those Fridge Experiments that happens to us all - except in this case, she is uniquely placed to unravel the science down to the microbial level.
While cleaning out her fridge, Dr. Becket found that a tub of family-recipe beef vegetable soup had turned bright blue. “Ok I’m outing myself here,” she tweeted, “but there was forgotten beef soup in our fridge we just cleaned it out and it was BLUE?!?!? Wtf contam would make it blue??? Like BRIGHT blue!! Even w/ all my years in micro I’m not handling this well.“
Read on for a breathless and ongoing saga of Soup and Science, and the wonderful international community that is Academic Twitter.

For those following along, Blue Soup has a buddy! Meet Science Cheese!
Sebastian Cocioba tweets: Alright, we got another pilot #BlueSoup experiment underway to test if the glowy bugs make blue on soft cheese! A few articles suggest that Pseudomonas fluorescens can make cheese blue so I put some mozz in 12 well plates + 1mL of mozz broth + 30uL of BS1-A cells.
Photo: a translucent SEALED plastic vial of yummy looking mozzarella balls suspended in clear liquid, with the handwritten label: Science Cheese DO NOT EAT #BlueSoup 3/10/23
“Cheese plates were then incubated at 30°C and 4°C (lab fridge) and will check on them on Monday. I also streaked the cheese broth onto King’s Agar B to check if background glowy microbes are present before processing said cheese. Excited to see if this works!“
Photo: a clear plastic sample tray, about adult-palm size and a half inch deep, with 12 circular wells. Each well has a tiny mozzarella ball tucked inside. They fit perfectly. The tray is labelled “30C” and “BLUE SOUP 3/10/23″
I just learned Jansport is making adaptable bags for mobility devices and thought I should share
They even have audio descriptions
[ID: a screenshot of the mobile Jansport website. There is a banner that says 'free standard shipping.' Under the banner is a link that says 'for audio description video click here.' Under the link is an illustration of 4 different types of mobility devices, each with its own adaptable Jansport bag. End ID.]
Jansport is a little pricey but it isn't like the adaptable bags are any more expensive than their other stuff, which is nice to see too!
Oh this is sick
Jansport is pricey because it's the last bag you'll ever have to buy. Seriously, buy two Jansport bags, when one breaks you send it back to Jansport and they fix it and send it back to you. In the meantime you use the second bag.
what is it about fungi that’s so mythical and freaky and set in humanities heads as “fable and Other Folk” fodder

mushrooms are an ancient force of growth and decay, life and rot, collapse and creation; they have been here long before us and will remain long after we’re gone- devouring that which kills us and creating that which forgets us.
it is best you tread carefully.
I’m studying biotech and every time someone brings up mushrooms our current professor will look either extremely exited or pained and go “listen.. mushrooms are neither plants nor animals nor something in between. They elude all attempts to categorize them. We do not know what they are. Some are immortal. Some produce live saving substances. Some are so closely related to humans that eating them may cause an allergic reaction against your own body. I cannot teach you about the mushrooms”
Oh to be a biotech professor and wax lyrical about the eldritch immortal mushroom.
@lumyri
the largest living being is a giant network of mushroom hyphae somewhere deep in Oregon’s blue mountains, It is thousands of years old, It covers 2384 acres, weighs 35 MILLION KGs (a kg is like 2 pounds) and thrives on sucking the life out of trees. we call it and it’s cousins honey mushroom.
Mushrooms were the first beings to truly conquer land and used to grow 8m up into the air. After the great dying 250 million years ago,mushroom forests covered the earth once more.
Mushrooms developed one of the most potent toxins in the world that kills most oranisms it comes into contact with, so that they do not have to compete with them. You know it as penicillin.
The nitrogen cycle which keeps all life outside of the ocean alive is unthinkable without the mushrooms growing in the roots of legumes.
There isn’t a being as eldritch and superlative yet silly and frivolous as a mushroom.
…closely related to humans? In what sense?
No sense. It’s bullshit. That’s not how allergies work at all.
In the sense that they’re more closely related to us than plants, apparently.

“NAFTER NOON!”
Every. Time. Every single time. I always get so delighted by this picture set. And I always forget what it’s followed up by. And then I see the “NAFTER NOON!” and absolutely lose it. I’m so glad this post exists.
oh my god two words in that just UNIVERSAL LANGUAGE
All hope is lost so quickly I can’t stop laughing.

“Okay :(”
He went straight to Acceptance. He didn’t even go through the five stages of grief. He just started at Acceptance.
I can translate for anyone wondering what he’s saying. The dialogue roughly goes something like
“Hopefully the owner of the car behind me will next time consider if-oh shit. Okay.”
thanks for the context omg
how to make your effects extra special
It can be somewhat disheartening when you the artisans and craftsman of yesteryear who created miracles out of limited technology go forgotten. Always nice to see someone somewhere making tributes to them.
For the last decade or so, I’ve been routinely attending a ride-on lawnmower race. I’ve always wanted to participate, but the high cost of used mowers is better spent on more practical vehicles, like literally anything else. Sometimes, though, the universe sends you a message. And in my case, that message came in the form of an awkward leg of a huge trade-in scam.
Picture, if you will, the humble redneck. They await the approach of big, fast domestic mowers. John Deeres, Cub Cadets, even weird modified Chinese stuff they looted from Aliexpress. There is jubilance, but that soon comes to an awkward hush. An unfamiliar engine note approaches.
My International 1480 combine harvester, all ten tons of it, is barrelling down the highway at a clip somewhere between “tepid” and “jaunty.” Even though I have shown up for a race, I am sandbagging a little bit, making sure that the bets get settled against my vehicle before I show them the might of a fully operational monster such as mine.
Technically, there is no violation. I had looked at the rulebook from every angle in the previous year: it has the correct number of wheels, the proper agricultural intent, and with precise work on the tiller, it can even (poorly) mow a suburban lawn. Is it modified? Oh yes, yes indeed, but I see the nitrous bottles poking out from the rows of Kubotas at the starting line.
And when I leave the starting line, it is a thing of beauty. At least for a few milliseconds. It seems that the wizards at International Harvester simply did not comprehend of a situation in which the frame of their combine would be launched into the air by means of one thousand eight hundred foot-pounds of supercharger-bolstered torque. I had erroneously believed that the loose soil of the rural community would let the wheels dip in, but now I am facing directly into the sky, having twelve o’ clocked hard on my wheelie, shooting flames from my exhaust and whirling vertical blades of death towards the grandstand.
It’s not about whether you win or lose. Sometimes it’s about how many pages you add to the rulebook.
“It’s not about whether you win or lose. Sometimes it’s about how many pages you add to the rulebook. “
I am but a mild-mannered urban being and have no idea what happened in this story, but with all the Gods as my witness I am getting the above text put on a plaque and hanging it in my living room.
Legendary quote
so homie brought this:
to a mower race
and made all 20k lbs of it do this:
Can combine races be a thing now? There are lawnmower races and tractor pulls, kinetic sculpture races and point-to-point rallies where the point is doing it in a vehicle vastly unsuited to the purpose, at least one annual outhouse race in the universe and something called a Flugtag which involves launching homemade attempts at aircraft into the river via a ski jump. The world needs more excellent and harmless bullshit.
