i dont get offended at white people jokes even though im white because:

i can recognize white people as a whole have systemically oppressed POC in america, which is where i live

most people when they make white people jokes only mean the shitty white people and i am not a shitty white person

im not a pissbaby

5. It’s hard to be offended when white people jokes involve bland food/tourist dads in socks and sandals/white girls in yoga pants obsessed with pumpkin spice/suburban PTA moms and other harmless and mostly true stereotypes while jokes about POC involve them being called thugs/criminals/slurs/uneducated/illegal immigrants.

6. They’re usually really fucking funny and don’t perpetuate stereotypes that will ever affect me economically, politically, or cause me any true harm, let alone create risks that “justify” my murder and/or death

I am a white suburban mom with an SUV, a Starbucks habit, and grew up eating baked chicken with ranch and boiled vegetables for dinner every night. I am every white joke rolled into one and well aware. Usually, they’re pretty damn funny.

Not to critique evolution, but I would think orange and black stripes wouldn’t be as good for camouflage in a forest as, say, green and black would.

It turns out a lot of animals can’t see the difference between orange and green! Elephants, for instance, have dichromatic vision (two types of cones, rather than three like most humans.)

Check out this diagram from ResearchGate. It deals with the color vision of horses, who are also generally dichromatic. (I think, though I’m not sure, that zebras would have the same color vision as horses.) See how orange and green look to them?

Not to critique evolution but I think prey animals should be better at telling when their predator is dressed like a traffic cone.

It doesn’t matter what zebras see, because tigers are not native to Africa and do not naturally hunt zebra. Tigers are Asian and mostly hunt animals like deer, elk, and buffalo. These aren’t animals with great color vision. They don’t need to have it because they don’t eat fruit and so don’t need to know when the berry is ripe vs when it’s not. Good color vision is too expensive to have if you don’t need it. Deer put their vision stats in a wide field of vision that is sensitive to motion, low light capabilities, and possibly seeing UV light. They don’t have great color and lack a lot of acuity, but have a great sense of smell and good hearing. That’s way more useful if you’re prey. Deer see well in the blue end of the color spectrum and less well in the red. This makes sense because deer are most active in the dawn and dusk periods, when there is more blue in the light. Tigers are taking advantage of deer eyesight by being orange.

We see tigers are being obviously colored because tigers are fruit colored to our tree ape brains.

I don’t know what the best part of this is: implying that deer chose their attributes on a character sheet, or the fact that we get to see tiger colors because they look like a snack.

Ok but like, I think you underestimate just how well they blend in when actually in the environment. Like, just using tigers as an example.

or how about a leopard?

It’s called ‘disruptive colouration’ because the markings help to break up the animal’s outline against the grasses or rocks. And the rosettes on leopards and jaguars? Sun spots shining through the trees and leaves on the ground.

And this is how hard it is to spot them WITH colour vision. Now imagine the above images but with the limited coloured mentioned above?

hecate-hollow

I’m sorry but there is not an animal in that first leopard picture

authoratmidnight

Are you, sure about that?

“Tigers are fruit colored” is my new favorite phrase.

I feel like mcspirk cuddling and how they’re positioned is based heavily on who’s in the middle for that night. If Jim is in the middle then all three of them are curled pretty close to each other cause Jim LOVES affectionate contact and will cling to Bones and Spock with every appendage he has to keep them close. If Spock is in the middle that night then he’s on his back with both arms curled around Jim and Bones. They’ll be on either side of him with both their heads on his chest and the top of their heads are smushing Spock’s cheeks and chin. By morning, Spock will have Jim and Bones pretty much laying on top of him on their respective sides. If Bones is in the middle then he’ll grumble while getting the heck cuddled out of him. He’ll be facing Spock’s chest while he holds him and Jim will be holding him from the back

“Cats are cold, detached & unloving.”

“Cats are not loyal.”

“A cat will not greet you at the door.”

“You can not train a cat”

“Cats aren’t that smart.”

“Cats aren’t that good with children.”

“Cats don’t miss you when you’re gone.”

“Cats don’t comfort you when you’re feeling down.”

What a load of crap !!! One thing for certain… cats don’t give a rat’s ass what B.S. you tell about them. They refuse to care less, either about what you think of them, or about the people they love.

I hate when people try to prove foods are unhealthy using properties utterly unrelated to their value as foods. You can make anything sound gross if you want to.

Did you know that salt is the same chemical we use to defrost sidewalks?!?!

Did you know that water is a major component in pig urine?!?!

Did you know that bread is made of wheat that has been ground into a powder and artificially reconstituted into a loaf shape using a fungus?!?!
