My cat has never cared about any of my stuffed animals, but now I have to keep chasing him off of the pile because he is OBSESSED with Cheth.

If I wasn't afraid he'd rip the guy to shreds I'd just leave it on the bed for him lmao. @phantomarine

What the hell? Is this normal? Is the snake ok?

[is-the-snake-video-cute]

Thanks for tagging me!

So, this isn't good, and it's not normal, but this is something that can happen in even healthy snakes, with a few big qualifiers. This only really happens on ophiophagus (snake-eating) snakes, like this kingsnake, and it happens because they think they smell food and wind up biting themselves. This snake happened to bite at just the right angle to swallow their tail, and as they kept going, any pain they felt was dismissed as being from their "prey" biting them.

This snake is probably okay. As you can see in the video, they let go as soon as some hand sanitizer got in their mouth - snakes hate the smell and taste of the stuff.

Situations like this are very rare. This snake's keeper did the right thing - it looks like they brought them to to the vet based on the table, and some hand sanitizer got them to let go with no issues.

Y'all I know that when so-called AI generates ridiculous results it's hilarious and I find it as funny as the next guy but I NEED y'all to remember that every single time an AI answer is generated it uses 5x as much energy as a conventional websearch and burns through 10 ml of water. FOR EVERY ANSWER. Each big llm is equal to 300,000 kiligrams of carbon dioxide emissions.

LLMs are killing the environment, and when we generate answers for the lolz we're still contributing to it.

Stop using it. Stop using it for a.n.y.t.h.i.n.g. We need to kill it.

Andrew Garfield: “To heal the most traumatic moment of his own life through doing it for his younger brother. Making sure that he didn’t have the same fate, there’s something cosmically beautiful about that. It meant getting a second chance at saving Gwen.”

being in love with the process and not the results is one of the healthiest things in the world

[trainthief]

in this same vein: being proud of yourself for the work and not the product brings so much more happiness 

[mcromwell]

Nope I’m reblogging this again because I can’t stop thinking about how similar this sentiment is to Zen, Be Here Now kind of thing. Grounding yourself in the felt, physical moment instead of the imaginary perceived future. Now is all we have. Have fun painting.
