In my experience
You know, I've long pondered a blog about how comics and fans have lionized Frank "the Punisher" Castle but demonized Amanda "The Wall" Waller over the years. I'm tempted to borrow one or the other of these as a header, because they really sum it all up.

..........why is there a scorpion
Let them cook
"we're america. we can do both." this shit is so fucking bleak man. the planet is on fire, kamala's not saying shit about climate except to solemnly claim she "believes the climate crisis is real" while reiterating for the umpteenth time that she loves fracking now and we've got joe over here posting the world's dumbest bar graphs while israel's bombing campaign is emitting more co2 every two months than the annual carbon footprint of over 20 nations. these are the "good guys" who are gonna save us btw <3
people new to tumblr angry about being blocked or writing huge paragraphs about why they chose to block someone like i promise you it’s not that deep i once blocked someone because their blog was obnoxiously orange and i hate the color orange
look im just going to go out and say it. euros are bad at hating america
my country is one of the most evil empires the earth has ever known, if not the most evil, and yet you guys consistently trip over your dick and make fun of america in like the 4 or 5 ways that are actually fucked up rather than the 747,928,384,929,122,004 ways you can criticize america right (its bc your own country only sucks 5% less than america in those other ways)
shut up and listen to any person from swana or latin america and they will show you how its done

These pictures are killing me
There are many animals I expect to see in caves, but I can confidently say that this was not one of them.
The elephants yearn for the mines
They crave that mineral
They carve that mineral
Not to be a killjoy (though it is what I do best) but the unsafe and rough handling of a baby Pygmy hippo in a pretty substandard Thai zoo being meme-ed into something funny and cute really shows just how much groupthink plays into public perception of animal welfare.
Moo Deng shows avoidance, threat displays and stress around her keepers that are constantly man-handling her, blasting her with a hose and harassing her. The enclosure is mostly concrete, which is horrible for her soft feet. There looks to be some substrate but there doesn’t seem to be any areas for wallowing or deep water wading.
There’s also very easy access of this hippo to the public with no places to hide. I’d love if someone could shed more light on the enclosures but from what I’ve seen it’s not great.
Also the free contact and forcing into tubs that the keepers do is only going to create an avoidant and potentially aggressive and dangerous Pygmy hippo.
But the public happily overlook that because she’s cute. It’s a similar attitude with seals too.
Stop rewarding bad husbandry with clout. Baby animals deserve agency and respect and to grow up without getting harassed and feeling the need to defend themselves constantly.
Somewhat unrelated but that recent viral video of the pelican being manhandled in a shitty indoor facility is also driving me insane, but I guess it's funny because pelicans are evil or some shit.
This is the shittiest pelican enclosure I've ever seen, compare it to the second image at an actual zoo.
A few photos for context
Defensive behaviors!!!
Mouth open and trying to bite!!!
Thank you for adding these images! Gives me an excuse to go research hippo behaviour further for context:
Note that all of these mouth open behaviours are accompanied by either direct contact bite, avoidance related behaviour (turning body away, being chased, grabbed) and eyes are wide with the whites of her eyes visible.
Compared to examples of mouthing interaction with a baby common hippo like Fiona
Note the softer eyes, no wide bulging eyes or whites showing and no avoidance. Fiona was very young here and you’d expect to see “baby aggression” like frustration ect. But this looks more affiliative towards her keepers than aggressive.
Context helps a lot. In all the pictures of Moo Deng she’s being reached out to, touched or sprayed with a hose. That’s generally not the response you want to have to husbandry in a free contact setting.
And here in is Pygmy Hippo natural social behaviour with each other:
Soft eyes, mouths not completely open (which would be more of a threat display), affiliative interaction between a breeding pair.
Jaw sparring with a youngster in common hippos.
In this context, this is a free interaction with no force involved and is species specific between mum and calf.
I think it’s interesting to see the contrast between Moo Deng’s stress/threat behaviour compared to other common hippos and Pygmy hippo behaviour.
@beaniebabs sorry to ruin her for you but this isn't good
it’s great to see a species not commonly thought of as cute/beloved by the public being appreciated…but it shouldn’t come at the cost of at the bare minimum failure to recognize the behaviors her keepers very well should be trained to observe showing she is uncomfortable with how she is being handled. cute or not she is unhappy/stressed in almost all the photos circulating of her
i told my friend’s dad that he was hot (it was in context with the conversation, he was complaining that he was feeling old, etc), and he said a very genuine thank you and the conversation moved on to other topic, my friend was now talking about something else entirely when his dad goes
“i think if i were born in your generation i might have been bisexual”
and friend got kinda mad at me lmao
Fuck his dad
Fuck his dad
Fuck his dad
Fuck his dad
you cant even begin poems with "i will sodomise and facef uck you" anymore. because of woke .
This is the information they are trying to keep from you by banning tiktok
I would love to see them try this with a greatsword that wasn't made out of foam.
This is one of the common misconceptions about swords: they aren't as heavy as you think.
A real medieval greatsword will weigh about 5-10 lbs, so in fact, that heft can be simulated with a foam weapon. Also, the point of balance is at the hilt, so you don't feel that weight while swinging.
The only difference would be that if it was a real greatsword, the other dude would be having a way worse day, lol
If you’re gonna get a prosthetic, might as well go the extra mile and make it badass-looking.
#I mean that’s pretty neat just in general#but more specifically I can’t stop thinking#“imagine if you broke into some guy’s house and you come face-to-face with him and his eye starts GLOWING”#“the risk I took was calculated. but man. am I bad at math” moment for sure
criminal profiling is just astrology for cops
taking a forensics class and watching the professor explain one by one how criminal profiling, hair microscopy, and bite mark analysis are all pseudoscience responsible for ruining innocent lives, and how on top of that, fingerprint analysis, despite being significantly more reliable, is subjective and prone to contextual bias. and also bullet striation analysis has the same issues. and also bullet lead analysis doesn’t work. and also handwriting analysis has an error rate high enough to render it useless
damn i'm almost starting to think the entire criminal justice system only exists to provide the illusion of protection while justifying state violence idk
we all got really lucky that alexander fleming wasn’t allergic to penicillin huh
imagine the guy who happens to discover the Mold That Heals You but unfortunately he’s part of the 10% of people who’s bodies turns it into the Mold That Kills You Harder
