A porcupine’s Halloween present (+ original sound effects)

[docwithtardisfez]

I had no idea giant porcupines made fucking precious sounds

THAT’S THE SOUND IT MAKES!?!?!?

UN-BE-FUCKING-LIEVABLE 

[why-animals-do-the-thing]

We got asked if this is cute and okay. I can very happily say yes, this is stupid cute and those are happy porcupine noises. 

One of my favorite things about doing zoo work was all the noises you never realize the animals make when they’re excited or interested in a new thing. Coatimundis squeak and snuffle, and giant porcupines make that sound. 

[why-animals-do-the-thing]

It’s been a long time since I’ve seen this video on my dash, so it’s time to bring it back! The information provided above is still correct, and was sourced directly from the zookeeper that takes care of this specific animal.

I didn’t know cheetahs meow I’ve always thought they roar my whole life has been a lie

[anarchapella]

Ok but the other one is purring so hard

[valgalart]

If I ever don’t reblog this assume I’m dead

[excessively-english-jd]

Fun fact: technically, because of its inability to roar and its ability to purr, the cheetah is not a ‘big cat’ (or Great Cat) - they are still classified as Lesser Cats.

Also you haven’t heard anything until you hear them cheep.

[kunaiman]

YOU CANNOT JUST SAY THAT AND NOT PROVIDE A VIDEO

I HAVE REALISED MY MISTAKE AND SHALL RECTIFY IT:

Cheeps.

the reason these exist (iirc) is because peppa pig is banned in china for “promoting gangster attitudes”: peppa was popular (for whatever reason) with “shehuiren” (anti-establishment internet users), who made a lot of memes involving peppa and even got tattoos of her because it’s funny. the result of banning peppa is that shehuiren-types liked peppa even more afterwards, and now she’s a bit of a counterculture symbol in china. hence these shirts.

What’s funny is that this actually happened. 

[allamericankindofguy-actual]

I’m unfamiliar with this story please elaborate

[fedkaczynski]

Finnish soldier gets separated from the rest of his unit but he’s the only one carrying the emergency amphetamines for the unit, takes too many and goes on a one man rampage for like 2 weeks straight giving the opposing Soviet soldiers nightmares for decades. Oh and he did it all on skis. 

[ethereal-insight-deactivated201]

Did he survive?

[loafed-beans-deactivated2020082]

Yes, during his methed up 2-3 week rampage he got injured by a land mine, travelled 400km on skis, and only ate pine buds and a Siberian Jay that he caught which he ate raw. When he made it back to Finnish lines he was taken to a hospital where it was found his heart rate was nearly 200 beats per minute and his weight had dropped to 43kg (94.7lbs).

[doctor-roman]

His name was Aimo Koivunen if you want to look him up

Those are the eyes of a man who has seen god and laughed

Racist Cartoon In Australian Paper 

[cecaeliawitch]

they white-washed naomi osaka too, unbelievable

[kittiesatemypronouns]

This is outrageous. How can someone draw a cartoon like this in this day and age and have it published in a major newspaper??

[auntiewanda]

What the shitting goddamn fuck.

Reality:

She put her arm around Osaka to comfort her, and implored the pro-Serena crowd, which was still ticked because chair umpire Carlos Ramos gave her a severe game penalty in the second set of her 6-2, 6-4 loss to Osaka, to stop with the Bronx cheer.

“She just won,” Williams said after the presentation. “I felt like, wow, this isn’t how I felt when I won my first Grand Slam. I definitely don’t want her to feel like that.”

- Time.com

Male cartoonist decides to draw a racist caricature of Williams, completely erase Osaka’s likeness and invoke the age-old sexist idea that women don’t get along.

this is the most depressing video game easter egg of all time

[null507]

“Even the proposal which he thought was the save all of our relationship was never the way I would have like to be proposed to. I never liked video games, but I sat through them because I loved him. Our relationship turned into a mother and son relationship where I had to remind him about things, I had to deal with his financial mistakes, his violent outbursts etc. We never did things normal couples would do like go out, dance, parties, sit under the stars.

I told him in July that he had a month to change my mind and it didn’t happen, so I broke up with him. I have big prospects in life and I am a highly motivated individual, but it was extremely challenging to have to be someone else’s motivation to simply get out of bed or get off of his video games. As far as his half-brother goes, Tyler had asked him to check in on me and ask me how I was doing after I broke up with him, so of course we got close. And our relationship just built from there. I did not leave Tyler for his half-brother and I have never been unfaithful to Tyler.””

on occasion, i browse the clearance racks at overpriced hipster-y boutiques cause from time to time you can find amazing deals, but being in Rich People Places always makes me a little nervous– and today when i was picking up a layaway from one of these shops, my nerves resulted in a story the shopkeepers are probably gonna be telling for quite a while.

i’d just come from the feed store for lizard food (ie: bugs), and it was like 95F out so they were slowly being smothered to death in my backpack. so when the clerk, who i’d overheard was only on her second day working there, gave me my fancy sundress in a bag way too big for it, i pulled out two dozen crickets in a plastic bag and a tub full of mealworms from my pack and set them gently on the bag so they could breathe better till i got home.

this girl’s eyes go wide and she looks imploringly back at the equally startled-looking manager helping her through the transaction, and i realize that this might look a little weird to folks who aren’t reptile keepers. so, instead of doing the logical thing and explaining that i’m feeding leopard geckos, i sorta chuckled and shrugged apologetically, and just said “dinner, y’know?”

for the briefest of moments, there was an awkward silence so sweaty and suffocating you could drown in it, and then, in true daytime comedy fashion,

the fucking crickets started chirping.

so i guess i’m never going back there ever again.

[dragontribeadventures]

We once kept a pet lizard who ate live crickets or locusts at different points of her life. The only issue is that I am from a tiny Scottish island so we had to order them in by mail.

When we went away on holiday our neighbours would collect the locusts for us and feed our lizard.

So we’re away for Christmas and at the time we were ordering locusts from a shop on ebay. We get a phone call from said neighbour who tells us that instead of 500 locusts we have received 5000 crickets. Said crickets have eaten their way out of the plastic sack and have escaped into our kitchen.

Through some kind of monumental effort our neighbour and her son manage to seal the bag and recapture the crickets. They call us and we decide the best thing to do is return to sender. Our lizard got picky and would no longer eat crickets at this stage of her life so they were useless to us.

Next day or so we get another phone call. Apparently these crickets had once again eaten their way out of their confines. This time they escaped from the post van to descend like some kind of biblical plague on our local airport. They had to close while an exterminator was contacted.

My father calls the airport to apologise. However, at the time he was the editor of the local newspaper. Also, the airport did not know that the crickets were ours. So their reaction was to say “oh no please don’t print this story”. He explained the situation and did not put it in the paper.

The very excited blonde lady owns the resort where this is taken. She’s super excited because this is the closest they’ve ever come in before. Everyone else is less excited because this was taken crack of dawn; when blonde lady realized how close the whales were coming, she ran around waking everybody up to see it.

Almost all of Indiana is terrible, but I really don’t think Carmel gets enough derision. Fucking Carmel! Tacky, overpriced, full of rich people, and littered with shitty statues. I hate it!

There are statues all over the sidewalks downtown, but they’re not cool statues. They’re not commemorating important historical figures, they’re not creative artistic pieces, they’re not interactive. They’re just unsettling, obtrusive, and garishly-painted statues of random civilians who look like residents of Pleasantville, like “old woman with grocery bag”:

or “white cop poised to jokingly slap your ass for a photo”:

and “corporate shill taking up bench space to keep homeless people from sleeping on it”:

They’re always in the way, they never move when you say “excuse me”, you’re constantly mistaking them for real people, and they’re UGLY. They’re so UGLY! 

Dear Carmel, scrap them all and hire living statues. Mimes. I will forgive you cursed city for its crimes if you become the mime hotspot of Indiana. 

[changingmorphologies]

Hey my hometown has one of those weird cop statues

SLAPPING ASSES ACROSS THE UNITED STATES

[binarydreams1010]

I used to live in Carmel, Indiana, and my driver’s ed teacher told me he liked to dress up as a fisherman on the weekend, and sit on an empty bench near these with his rod and tackle box, and hold perfectly still. He liked scaring people when they came up to take a picture of the “new statue”.

[glumshoe]

Your driver’s ed teacher was an entrepreneur and I think this should be how we take down Carmel, Indiana. We descend upon the town en masse as a plague of living statues.

a starbucks barista on tinder just tried to explain to me what black coffee is.

[nest-deactivated20181209]

his profile was something like “if you don’t like starbucks i probably hate you” and i messaged him like “i like their fancy drinks but their black coffee is gross. thoughts?” and he said “uh black coffee is coffee with no add-ons like cream or sugar.” and i was like “……yep!” and he said “son there are so many types of coffee, you don’t even know.” i feel like im talking to a robot posing as a human barista
