📣Hey all you shrimps, shramps, and shrumps!📣

Time to shape up your exoskeletons with Shelly Skellie’s Super Short Skeleton Shrimp Sweat Sesh! Join Shelly as she shows her students a scintillating skeleton shrimp-spired exercise!

Skeleton shrimp (Caprella sp.) aren’t your typical shrimp-like crustacean. These abundant amphipods prefer to perch their pereons upon a piece of seaweed, bryozoa, or hydroid, moving about in an inchworm-like fashion with the aid of their grappling-hook-claws, called gnathopods. When the going gets tough, skeleton shrimp can get going, albeit a bit awkwardly — swimming by rapidly bending and straightening their bodies in a series of suspended underwater crunches. 

To eat, they hang on to their home with their back legs and wave their bodies about in the current while swiping for bits of food and detritus. It’s these motions that have inspired Shelly’s newest workout trend — now grab your friends and get ready to have a skeleTON of FUN!

Night Vale had some of the BEST one off quotes that would just suckerpunch you in the chest leave you breathless

Like the one that stuck with me was this one:

"when a person dies and no one will miss them, the mourning is assigned to a random human. This is why sometimes you just feel sad."

It's been almost 11 years... It haunts me in a good way

[ruby-white-rabbit]

Know what? Tell me YOUR favorite WTNV quote. I wanna know what lingers in people's minds after all this time

[slowcat420]

“Are we living a life that is safe from harm? Of course not. We never are. But that’s not the right question. The question is are we living a life that is worth the harm?”

[neosatsuma]

“The past is gone, and cannot harm you anymore. And while the future is fast coming for you, it always flinches first and settles in as the gentle present.”

[cephalopodvictorious]

“Death is only the end of you assume the story is about you”

[indieninja92]

"There is a thin semantic line separating weird and beautiful, and that line is covered in jellyfish"

[jb612]

"Whisper a dangerous secret to someone you care about. Now they have the power to destroy you, but they won't. That's what love is."

[ghostsinthecellar]

from one of the books:

"Nothing there but a distant airplane crawling across the sky, red blinking lights, vulnerable in the vast empty, faint red beacons flashing the message HELLO. A SMALL ISLAND OF LIFE UP HERE, VERY CLOSE TO SPACE. PRAY FOR US. PRAY FOR US."

[elvencantation]

“The desert seems vast, even endless. And yet scientists tell us that somewhere, even now, there is snow.”

[randomslasher]

okay but can we please return to the first one because what an amazing way to deal with random sads? “Oh, someone died, I’ll send out good thoughts for their soul to be at peace or w/e, I’m just in the mourning period for them that’s all” instead of like stressing over “WHY AM I SAD?” when there really is no real discernable reason? I’m using this is what I’m saying.

[twofingerswhiskey]

"The living tell the dying not to leave. The dying do not listen."

Your existence is not impossible. however, it’s not very likely.

The second of my new patterns is Cambrian Bowling Alley Carpet, which is exactly what it sounds like - a bunch of Cambrian era creatures in a pattern inspired by 1990's bowling alley carpets. Why? I don't know, it's not my style at all, but it was just one of those things where once I thought of it i needed to make it exist or else it'd lurk in the back of my mind forever. (Much like my Werther's wrapper waistcoat) I painted the creatures in gouache and scanned them and then spent a very very long time editing. I made a smaller coordinating print of just the little confetti creatures in between the larger ones, and I liked the way the omnidens looked so much I added some texture and made them their own print with blue and brown versions.

I wrote down all the names as I drew them so I wouldn't forget that the big creatures are: omnidens, anomalocaris, opabinia, norwoodia, marrella, facivermis, diania, pikaia, and hallucigenia.

And the little confetti creatures are: orthoceras, burgessia, wiwaxia, isoxys, kiisortoqia, tuzoia, vetulicolia, dinomischus, urokodia, plectronoceras, nectocaris, eokinorhynchus, and various trilobites. (Every single one of those names is underlined in red! Spellcheck must really hate prehistoric invertebrates.)

All of these patterns are on Spoonflower, MyFabricDesigns, and Redbubble.

(Insert joke here about being nostalgic for a simpler time before smartphones and trees and internal skeletons)

goddd i just want spider-man's identity to be his own worst but new york city's best kept secret. like i want him unthinkingly taking off his mask and like 20 people see, but if you ask them if they did? no they didn't.

the rule is unwritten, but very enforced. like, there are online communities dedicated to erasing any trace of the spread of his identity. a tourist takes a photo of him and posts it online? it's gone in minutes, and people send DMs to the poster anywhere from "hey, i'm sure you were just excited, but...." to "ill kill u if i evr c you, fuckin bitch".

any information on spider-man is only spread via word of mouth, and only spoken in hushed, awed voices. after several years of spider-man, everyone knows someone who encountered him:

"he saved my cousin. caught a falling billboard from underneath with his bare hands..."

"wow... i've never seen him myself, but he talked to my coworker's daughter for an hour after he stopped a guy from getting a little too handsy. apparently, his smile is 'dreamy'."

these secrets are freely given if you're kind, trustworthy, and show respect for the little guy. but the moment you demand information on him... "i don't know what you're talking about, buddy. he's just an urban legend the news likes to blame the city's problems on so we don't unionize or worse"

so as many times as spider-man ends up with out a mask, or accidentally introduces himself with a name that starts with 'p' and rhymes with 'meter'... on the record, they don't know a thing. because he does his best to help as many people as he can, so it's only fair if they help him a little in return.
