So, yesterday, a friend of mine visited for a bonfire, and he asked me to come look at something weird on his car. In the seam of the door, there were 4 little mud cocoons. I crumbled the first one on accident (it was empty), but the second one came off cleanly- but it was empty, too. I took a photo of them to see if I could get an ID later, and then I pulled off the third one- empty.

The 4th one though. The 4th one… something had Happened.

It looks like a spider, but I couldn’t think of any spider that would live in our area that makes cocoons like this, and the cocoon really looked like something a wasp or a bee would do, so I was stumped!

TURNS OUT. Michigan has a really beautiful little wasp called a blue mud dauber, and their MO is to sting spiders, shove them into mud cocoons, lay an egg on it, and close the lid.

But the REAL kicker here, is that their FAVORITE spider, the one they are most well known for using…. is the black widow. These docile little nectar-eaters know how to snatch them right out of their webs or lure them off of their webs in order to sting them to use as baby food. So NOT ONLY are these things Friends, and beautiful as heck, but they are complete badasses too. I have seen them around here and there over the years, but I never thought to wonder what they might be doing. I’m glad to find out!

tbh i dont get why most people assume that robots are always cold

like have u felt a laptop while its working? its kinda not exactly cold yo

tbh any piece of machinery thats working hard to function is usually not cold, the only time its ever cold is when its turned off

so id like to think while a robot is awake and functioning they could have the potential to be as warm as a human being :0

never thought about this before but now it’s obvious

although like i hope they’ve actually improved cooling tech by the time they’re building androids bc my laptop can actually get so hot it makes THE ROOM hot and it’s only the size of a laptop so potentially an android who was thinking very hard would be a veritable furnace 

think too hard, overheat, faint

fainting couches for androids omg

[notcuddles]

Fainting couches for androids is the best possible thing

[ceruleancynic]

file under things i didn’t know i needed in my life

[roachpatrol]

humans who carry around those chemical freeze-packs in case they need something to drape across their friend’s fevered brow

humans who insist on holding a parasol for their robot friend on sunny days

a robot draping herself over a fainting couch in distress and a bunch of worried humans mobbing up to fuss and fan her and bring her some cool water and pat her hand and gallantly offer to beat up whatever alarmed her

too cute

[johnny-bug-deactivated20161109]

Okay guys and gals I like where ur going but I think we’ve glossed over something with real potential.

Androids blushing

A human calls their android friend cute and then they look flustered and you hear their cooling fans kick into high gear

A human plants a little kiss on their cheek and they turn red hot (literally) from embarrassment

“Brr, it’s friggin cold in here.”

“Hold on I got this. Hey TX-10 did I tell you you look very pretty today?”

The room temp rises a couple degrees as TX-10 tries to hide their blushing.

yES THANK U FOR ADDING THIS TO MY POST

[dancercoder]

YES YES YES YES this is the content I want from my Tumblr

[neraiutsuze]

okay but also consider this

robots attracting cats like catnip every time they stop moving for more than a few minutes

robot sits down for ten minutes, is immediately a cat pillow

halfheartedly protesting to their human friends that they have tasks to do and being informed that no, their priority one override task is now to be a cat pillow, sorry friend that’s just how this works

Adobe Tells Users They Can Get Sued for Using Old Versions of Photoshop

"You are no longer licensed to use the software," Adobe told them.

[awsomelink]

Friendly reminder that GIMP does pretty much everything Photoshop does, and it’s 100% free. Fuck DRM and the license culture, we have plenty of open source options available to us as a consumer.

Lightworks is a freeware video editor on par with Premiere

Blender is an excellent freeware 3D renderer,possibly better than After Effects

Lightzone to replace Lightroom

Inkscape to replace Illustratr

Audacity to replace Audition (I also received a free version of Pro Tools with my Scarlett Solo audio interface)

If Adobe is going to be greedy shitheads, then fuck ‘em. Don’t use their stuff. Freeware can be just as good, if not better, than Adobe CC.
