We had the absolute tiniest filly born yesterday. She weighed 45 pounds! That’s about half of what most of our babies probably weigh. She is totally happy and healthy!
THIS IS THE TINIEST BABY I HAVE EVER SEEN

Our neurology professor played this for us in class first year
Pando, also known as The Trembling Giant, is a clonal colony of a single quaking aspen (Populus tremuloides) determined to be a single living organism by identical genetic markers and assumed to have one massive underground root system. The plant is estimated to weigh collectively 6,000,000 kg (6,600 short tons). The root system of Pando, at an estimated 80,000 years old, is among the oldest known living organisms. Pando is located 1 mile southwest of Fish Lake on Utah’s Route 25, in the Fremont River Ranger District of the Fishlake National Forest, at the western edge of the Colorado Plateau in South-Central Utah,

Another cool thing: all of the trees in this forest drop their leaves at exactly the same time!
I feel terrified for reasons I can’t quite pin down
This sounds like the beginning of a horror novel.
@platanerx This made me think of you!
that’s so sick.. trees are badass

What’s fascinating about the tiny ‘leaf sheep,’ which can grow up to 5mm in length and can be found near Japan, Indonesia and the Philippines, is that they are one of the only animals in the world that can perform photosynthesis (the others all belong to the sacoglossa sea slug clade). When they eat algae, they suck out the chloroplasts and incorporate them into their own bodies in a process called kleptoplasty. This process, which otherwise can only be performed by single-celled organisms, essentially makes them solar-powered slugs!

Someone should please take me on a week long ride somewhere like this. This is where I need to be right now.
look at this dipshit
she fetched the WHOLE TREE!! !!!
you’ll know the dogwood tree is in bloom when its produce starts to twirl in the breeze
“She fetched the whole tree”
Bahahaha
do u ever just think about the fact that molly weasley saw HARRY POTTER, the boy who defeated voldemort, and went “i’m gonna knit this kid a christmas sweater”
what i love thinking about is in the book ron says he told his mum that harry wasn’t expecting any christmas presents and that’s why she sent him them and knowing ron can be a bit scatty/oblivious he probably didn’t mention it til like two days before christmas so i just like to think of molly sitting up all night knitting harry his sweater and baking him homemade fudge or whatever because she’d be damned if she’d let harry go present-less at christmas
Or maybe Harry is just as dismissive. Like, Ron is dreaming aloud of him mom’s homemade fudge and asks Harry what he wants and Harry shrugs “the Dursley never give me anything, last year I got a half-used eraser” and Ron is like 0_0 because what, no one is going to give a gift to his new best friend? So he takes poor Errol telling Percy it’s an emergency and Percy’s like no! and Ron’s like HARRY NEVER GETS CHRISTMAS GIFTS YOU GIT and Percy’s like Oh. Ok. Write mom. And Ron’s letter is mainly MOM HARRY NEVER GETS CHRISTMAS GIFTS FROM HIS MUGGLES WHAT DO I DO and then it’s December 23 at night and Arthur is ready to go to bed and sees his wife get the yarn and the knitting needles out again and Honey I thought you were done? Did we get another child while I was at work? YES, she answers, furious. Ron’s new friend, little Harry. If I get this done by tomorrow morning I can make a batch of fudge and send Errol back with it. And that’s when Arthur Weasley realized they did get another kid when he wasn’t looking but, honestly, once you went past the five kids mark you stopped counting.
“ Did we get another child while I was at work?” “YES”
You know what? Give me more developed Hufflepuff headcanons. Something in addition to the hyper, cutesy, peace-making, biggest-flaw-is-being-a-pushover stereotype.
Give me Hufflepuffs who get in trouble with Snape for not being able to keep quiet about his bullying in class because it’s not right. Give me Hufflepuffs who have the bad habit of staying up for 3 nights straight and are crabby because they’re working too hard. Give me Hufflepuffs who haul off and punch someone’s who’s been harassing them for weeks and their “infinite patience” just ran out. Give me Hufflepuffs who get into heated arguments with other Hufflepuffs because telling someone that they don’t belong here because they are too ‘something’ is directly against Helga’s principles.
Give me Hufflepuffs who’s unconditional acceptance is paired with a unerring protective rage when their friends are threatened.
Headcanon that Snape can’t bully ANY Hufflepuffs because they just sort of close ranks around whoever he’s about to start in on.
Not in a combative, threatening Gryffindor-or-Slytherin way, either, but a pure Hufflepuff way that slides gleefully into passive-aggressive if need be.
If he gets too snappish with one student somebody else will pipe up “Professor Snape?” and they’ll have a perfectly reasonable, intelligent question that they probably sat on for most of the lesson so as to have it in reserve.
If he brushes it off or answers quickly and goes back to the first student somebody else will have a different question.
Once a second student asks their question it’s basically a heads-up to the rest of the class to come up with their own distractory questions.
Snape won’t be able to get near the student for the rest of the lesson because the whole class will keep him busy with questions.
If he snaps at any student for asking a stupid question somebody else will raise their hand and say they were wondering that too.
The person he started to bully is left to complete their potion in peace.
If Snape tries to shut them all up and make them wait until he’s finished yelling, someone will develop an emergency.
“Professor, my potion’s turning orange, why’s it turning orange?”
“Eeep! I accidentally dropped some knarl quills in too early, what should I do?”
They totally study volatiles and reactive ingredients in their off time so that they know how to produce a result Snape recognizes as a serious matter.
If all else fails Hufflepuffs will happily explode their own potions to draw Snape’s ire from whoever he’s tormenting.
The Ravenclaws happily take advantage of the distraction to do their own experimenting and research without being overly stymied by responsible adult supervision.
Snape has told Dumbledore that, their bargain and threats of Voldemort be damned, he will quit if he is ever made to pair the pre-NEWT Hufflepuff classes with Gryffindors.
Forget Tatooine, scientists have found a triple-star system
Planets that orbit two stars are a dime a dozen in the universe. Even Star Wars pays homage to double-star systems in that classic scene on Luke Skywalker’s home planet, Tatooine. But now astronomers have found a much rarer triple-star system. If you stood on the exoplanet called KELT-4Ab, you’d see a three-sun sunset. It’s only the fourth triple-star system ever discovered. This is the closest three-star system we’ve ever found to Earth, so the researchers think we could learn a lot from it.
