Dragon like cloud over Mount Fuji at sunrise. By touyoui, Nov 2024.

Literally this

[itspronouncedfeckyou]

for any new followers here: i am the Biggest hater of people pronouncing

this animal. as "Axe-oh-lottle"

the term 'axolotl' comes from Nahuatl, the language of the Nahua people (or the aztecs, for the uninitiated). it is derived from atl (water) and xolotl (one of the gods in the pantheon). in nahua, x's make a 'sh' sound, not a 'ks' sound. and when you have a 'tl' at the end of the word, it is best to just omit the l (since, in english it does not flow very naturally to make the Proper sound)

with this knowledge, we realize that the word 'axolotl' is actually pronounced "ash-o-lot" and Not "axe-oh-lottle"

anyway. thats my tedtalk

sincerely,

a native american who cares about language preservation

[itspronouncedfeckyou]

as an additional note, 'hua' like seen in "nahuatl" makes a 'wa' sound

so 'nahuatl' is pronounced 'na-wat' not 'na-how-tle'

hello I am at my wits end and I need to know something. Do you talk to your mother every day?

Yes

No

Remaining time: 6 days 5 hours

No nuance. If you don’t have a mother/are no contact etc this is not a poll for you.

You can elaborate as to how often you feel is a regular amount of communication between an adult child and their mother.

Tumblr did not “Goncharov” Poob. Poob is Glupp Shittoing Tubi/Pluto/Roku Channel/Hulu/etc.

[gender-luster]

none of these words are in the bible. or the dictionary, for that matter.

[hugintheraven]

#While this is a joke#For the etymologists out there#Tumblr did not “goncharov” poob#translation: Tumblr is not making a fictitious thing called poob that we insist is real#Poob is glup shittoing (streaming services)#Translation: Poob is now a generic name for whatever streaming platform is out there when you don't feel like naming something specifically

Every time I see a Season Greasons post, I can’t help but wonder how many people actually know that image is from Man After Man and is supposed to be future evolved humans killing each other for food

[amingethia]

I’m sorry please elaborate what is Man After Man

And why are the evolved humans so hairy

[nonbinary-bosmer]

Man After Man is a book by Dougal Dixon on the speculative evolution of man after climate change, genetic engineering, and environmental collapse leads to the engineering of new human species to fill those biological niches, which then goes completely wild when society totally collapses and evolution runs wild.

As for why they’re so hairy? To survive in the freezing tundra. Why are they in the tundra? No idea. New human subspecies are created seemingly just to exist. However, be glad that they are hairy cause it’s the non hairy ones that are really horrifying.

Like the aquatics…

Or the space avocados Vacuumorph who were engineered to build spaceships for the elite…

Or these fucked up horsed people…

[amingethia]

I got this far down the rabbit hole. Might as well dive deeper.

[nonbinary-bosmer]

Goddamnit. Why did I even mention those? I don't want to be known as the Man After Man tumblr 🤦

Well you know the guys from the meme?

Well over the course of Two million years, they eventually go from that to this...

Yep, the hunters have now become literal Parasites who feast off the blood and fat of the now massive and hairless tundra walker Hosts

But it doesn't end there. You remember how it was mention that there were spaceships being built? Well those humans eventually return to Earth after several million years. And do you want to guess what they do?

This...

They turn the Hosts into this, massive immobile mountains of flesh harvested for meat as quickly as it grows.

So yeah, that's what the Season Greasons meme is all conected to and I am angry that knowledge of this takes up actual space in my brain

[nonbinary-bosmer]

This time of year, it’s important to remember the story behind a classic holiday image.

The Twilight Zone: Our episode "A Slot Machine Chases You Around Physically" was meant as a cautionary tale about the predatory nature of the gambling industry

The Gambling Industry: We've invented the slot machine that chases you around physically from The Twilight Zone episode "A Slot Machine Chases You Around Physically"

[2mo3cm-man]

That’s a real episode, for anyone who didn’t know.
