Stuff and Nonsense

So, anyway, I finally got a tumblr. I have no theme: I post mostly cute things, crafts, spinning, fluff, Marvel, and Tom Hiddleston, but other stuff happens too.  Please forgive me if I don't follow back - I need to keep my dash manageable for the...

it’s always awkward if you give the bird a toss and it doesn’t want to fly…

the universe: okay, you’re a human. I gave you free will and a conscious mind, so you’re free to do whatever you want. So what do you wanna do?

human: GO FAST

the universe: well, you’re a perfect pursuit predator but if that’s the way you want to evolve, go ahead.

human, climbing on a horse: GO FAST

the universe: wait what

human, inventing the carriage, the car and the bullet train: GO FASTER

the universe: I IMPLORE YOU TO STOP

human, trying to figure out lightspeed travel: FAS T ER

From imdb: ”During the filming of some scenes for The Princess Bride, the weather became markedly cold for Robin Wright Penn. Andre the Giant helped her by placing one of his hands over her head; his hands were so large that one would entirely cover the top of her head, keeping her warm.”

This is so sweet how can I NOT reblog this. 

[catbountry]

D’aaawwww.

All of the behind the scenes stories about Andre the Giant were adorable like this, Apparently Wallace Shawn is deathly afraid of heights, so he was freaking out while they were doing the scene scaling the cliff and Andre was like “it is okay, I’ll keep you safe.” there’s a behind the scenes thing on the DVD and everyone is choked up and misty eyed when they talk about working with him.

Andre the Giant was a radiant human being.

[triss19]

I’m so glad he gets to go down in history as everyones favorite giant. What a legacy!

Are we sure that foxes are canines? Are we sure they aren’t just big stupid cats?

[joannanullo]

Ugh what a cutie

[vvhatmighthavebeenlost]

I NEED IT

[earth-sister]

I need 12

[allmyheadmateshateyou]

foxes aren’t canines…

[maythefoxbewithyou]

WELL, they’re certainly not felines.

[why-animals-do-the-thing]

I’m going to textgrab from this post by prokopetz:

I often see foxes referred to as “catdogs” on Tumblr, but I wonder if folks realise how true that really is.

There’s a phenomenon called convergent evolution that occurs when two taxonomically unrelated species exploit the same ecological niche. The features that are needed to best take advantage of a given niche are pretty much the same everywhere you go; thus, over time, those species will become anatomically and behaviourally similar, even though they’re completely unrelated.

And foxes? Foxes are what you get when an ecosystem has no native small felines, so a canine species evolves to take advantage of the ecological niche that would have been exploited by a small feline, if one existed.

In other words, a fox is literally what you get when a dog tries to cat.

So, in a way…

#omg #I knew I had a huge reason for loving foxs #other than #you know #loving fox

[owlbear33]

on a similar note, hyenas are what happens when there are no dogs so felines fill that niche, Hyenas particularly spotted hyenas are wolfcats

one of the most brilliant exchanges ever written for television tbh

[rubyvroom]

I mean as story decisions go, giving Data a cat and the screentime to try to logically reason with the cat with very little success, thus letting the robot embody Every Cat Owner Ever, was A+

Amazon founder and CEO Jeff Bezos starts every meeting with 30 minutes of silence. During this ‘silent start,’ he has his executives read detailed memos and make notes in the margins so that everyone will be on the same page. He likes the technique because it prevents employees from wasting time going over ideas and concepts they should have already been prepared for. Source Source 2

hey have you considered dragons having threat responses similar to cats and lizards where their scales shift to make them look bigger

sometimes it works  ( with mixed results )
