Hmmmm anyway what about the opposite of Devoted Loyal Noble Knight. What about Knight that is Chained to his Duty like a Rabid Dog in a Cage. What about Knight that fucking Loathes The King but is bound by a magic oath that prohibits him abandoning his post or harming his liege. Knight that feigns subservience while boiling with bloodlust. Knight who finds every innocuous form of disobedience and rebellion he can within the limits of his Oath. Knight who decides, after a virtuous little Consort is betrothed to the King and sent to the Palace, he'll make it his mission to corrupt and ruin the Consort with filthy, feral seduction. Fucking them over and over and over again while the King is none the wiser, in every room in the Palace, on the throne, in the King's bed, always an inch away from getting caught.

"Shhh... You don't want the king to hear, right?"

OOPS TOO DEEP

I genuinely don’t understand how stephenie mayer managed to place Edward Cullen at the center of the romantic narrative—when Carlisle Cullen exists.

We had a character who was ancient, composed, intelligent, and morally complex. A vampire who chose to become a doctor. Who reshaped his instincts into ethics. Who built an entire philosophy around not harming humans.

Carlisle’s character had the kind of emotional and thematic weight that stories could orbit around. A pastor’s son, turned into the very thing his father devoted his life to destroying—and still, he chose mercy over bitterness.

And the chemistry between Bella and Carlisle in that one scene—when he’s tending to her wounds after the birthday accident— OH MY GOD!

 i recommend learning other alphabets if for no other reason than it’s very fun to see people replace latin alphabet letters with complete nonsense for Aesthetic

Ocean Ramsey and her team encountered this 20 ft Great White Shark near the island of Oahu, Hawaii. It is believed to be the biggest ever recorded

[toothybabies]

She’s so beautiful!! 💙💙💙

[ayellowbirds]

SO lovely!

LORGE PAL :D

[terrible-tentacle-theatre]

God, I’m obsessed with this video. The way you can see all the scars and craters on her skin, the way the gill slits wave in the current, the sense of just how massive she is compared to that diver… it’s incredible. Just this enormous animal lazily swimming by the camera.

When 99% of the time you only see sharks in sped-up footage accompanied by threatening orchestral music and some narrator dude ominously intoning that it is “the most perfect killing machine the world has ever seen”, you tend to forget sharks are such beautiful creatures. This video doesn’t show a “monster shark” or a “killing machine”. It shows an animal - and a fucking beautiful one at that.

She’s so beautiful I’m going to cry. 

[bundibird]

I lose my shit with absolute unfettered delight every single time I see this video. It makes me speechless every time, and I watch it at least 3 times in a row, and there’s a 50/50 chance that I’ll cry, because fuck. Look at her. She’s beautiful. And she’s just,,,, SO peaceful. There’s three swimmers in the water around her, swimming along beside her, and she’s not even a little bit phased. The peace and beauty in this video just. Gets me every time.

[marinebioblr]

Hoooooo boy this video sparked a lot of controversy in the marine bio world. Many people argue that sharks should not be engaged with physically unless redirecting them, especially if they are in the area to feed (like, for example, on a dead whale) since they may get scared off and lose a prime opportunity to eat. Ocean Ramsey got a lot of heat for touching Deep Blue, especially for “riding” on her pec fin. However, I have never seen such massive positive public engagement towards a shark, /especially/ a notoriously slandered species like the great white. In Ramsey’s defence, she is also clearly keeping pace with DB when she touches her pec fin, not hanging on by it. Ramsey is a huge shark and ocean advocate, and with this video she began a huge conversation about how we perceive sharks. With shark cullings still happening periodically in places like Australia and finning still a thriving industry, sharks need all the good PR they can get.

After quite a while, I finally managed to adapt these fun shark anatomy illustrations to Redbubble products! Many asked me to make posters or art prints available for sale and it is now possible in my little store! This is my store’s profile! ✨

I tried to adapt these arts to other products, but I think they were very ugly, so focus on looking for poster and art print options! I hope you like it and that the price offered by Redbubble is affordable! 

In the future I want to make other species of sharks! Thanks a lot for all support! ✨ If you want to follow me on instagram, this is: @AstralRequin

If this ain't me

[crying-over-really-dumb-things]

Me, bleeding profusely from a missing leg as I’m being dragged onto the beach: THIS WAS A STATISTICALLY UNLIKELY OCCASION, IF THE SHARK WANTED ME DEAD I WOULD BE DEAD. SHARKS ARE IMPORTANT FOR THEIR ECOSYSTEMS I DO NOT CONDONE ANY ATTEMPTS TO HUNT THIS SHARK

[thedreadpirateblogger]

Woman shouts 'I still love sharks' as she's taken to hospital after getting bitten by one

Swimmer is in a stable condition

There's a helicopter landing to life flight her and she leans up on the gurney to yell at everyone watching, "Still love sharks! Sharks are beautiful!"

What a fucking champ

[savvysergeant]

But also @crying-over-really-dumb-things ‘s tags!!

[headspace-hotel]

Also I was looking at 2021 in paleontology and apparently this year we discovered this awful shark that is wider than it is long

why

[headspace-hotel]

I love this thing

[hexpress]

can we pretend that airplanes in the night sky are like stupid sharks?

[weaver-z]

I could really use a fish right now

[babyanimalgifs]

[normal-with-adhd-is-a-joke]

In case anyone was worried, this is a Nurse Shark, one of the types of sharks that doesn’t need to swim forward to breathe!  It also doesn’t appear to be distressed at all, it seems like it’s just chilling.

[jenniferrpovey]

More evidence that fish can play.

[dancing-coyote]

Trust me, if a nurse shark doesn’t want something done to it, it WILL let you know. Very, very painfully. They don’t bite often, but they WILL bite when provoked and can deal out serious damage.

This shark is, indeed, just chilling.

[pizzazz-party]

[jessafer94]

out of boredom i decided to scan a stuffed shark. here are the results.

[strangersea]

[trainsforbrains]
