tomorrow when the employees find this freak of nature, they will take photos of him and call animal control. but tonight he is alive in the chicago quiznos by the soda cooler and when he looks up at the counter, there are twice as many sandwiches as usual.
Its a Tumblr blunt. Pass it on. Dont mess up the rotation B
This is crazy. For $4.7 million you can buy a replica of an old western town, but w/all the modern amenities, in Saguache, Colorado.
There’s everything here.

The headline: UK Drug Dealer Feeling Bleu After Cheese Photo Leads To Arrest
The article: Police cracked encryption on a privacy-focused phone service provider and ran fingerprint analysis on photos posted by users.
Like I get that law enforcement does things like this, that’s literally what it exists for, I’m just really upset by the cutesy framing.
Also. Like. Don’t organize shit online or over the phone. Law enforcement has been pressuring tech companies to put backdoors into encrypted services for years, this whole crackdown happened because of a device-level attack, and you never know who’s listening.
And yeah. If you’re setting up an anonymous ID online for any reason do not, under any circumstances, post or share any identifying information under that ID or with devices associated with that account.

So we’re so anti-cop these days we’re literally defending drug dealers?
Surely These Techniques Used By The Brave Lawmen Of My Municipality To Monitor Suspected Criminals (Those Low Knaves Who Would Wound And Injure Society By Their Deeds And Dealings) Will Never Be Used To Target Me, An Upstanding Citizen.
But also yeah we’re literally defending drug dealers. Kinda cringe not to.
In the sense of “drug dealers are people who have rights and everyone’s rights should be defended” AND in the sense of “yeah I don’t actually see anything wrong with selling drugs to people who want them with the standard caveat of ‘cutting drugs with shit’ isn’t just selling drugs but also probably would be more significantly disincentivized for dealers if selling drugs wasn’t a crime”
There are quite a few “arrests” where drug dealers have no prior convictions, no history of drug use, and are carrying exactly the legal limit of product to lock them up for fifty years. The suspects are usually black, confused, and are willing to plea bargain to a lesser sentence rather than risk life in prison.
The war on drugs was created so the government had plausible deniability as to why they’re creating a surveillance state, and bootlickers have been eating that shit right up ever since (after all, only *bad* people get arrested).
maybe you shouldn’t hand the cops a legit reason to arrest you on a silver platter by selling drugs
maybe you shouldn’t have anarchist in your blog description
so im trying to decipher this chart on wikipedia that has common vampire weaknesses in it and
a ‘green/yes’ is a weakness, a ‘red/no’ is something that isnt a weakness, and a ‘?’ is something that has never been addressed but fucking riddle me this
in what lore are vampires weak to getting soggy in milk
i scrolled over to check to see what this could possibly be and
places a hand on me cheek
happy halloween month time for my favourite post of all time
2012 was such an insane cultural moment
no but for real . Gangnam style call me maybe riptide we are young . lana releases her first album and changed pop forever . Frank ocean releases his first album . 1D premieres . grimes releases genesis . and the movies. don’t even get me started. the first avengers movie the last twilight movie hunger games the hobbit les mis. like them or hate them they were cultural phenomenons. minecraft was at its peak before it was deemed cringe and before the minecraft renaissance. 2012 was one of the last good years of youtube too . and everyone was rlly into moustaches for whatever reason
Party Rock Anthem, Payphone, Glad You Came, Don’t You Worry Child, and Limbo all dropped in 2012 and we’re talking about Grimes??
And that’s not even talking about the charts… Somebody That I Used to Know, Call Me Maybe, Stronger (What Doesn’t Kill You), We Found Love, Starships, and that’s just in the top ten
On top of all of this there was that whole thing about the world ending in 2012…the frantic energy of it all
WHERE is the video with the guy with the laptop dancing to really bad music please i need this
Fuck I’m at a fencing tournament and literally a minute after I reblogged this my dad told me that he talked to the point people and I’m probably going to win a medal.
BURN BAGEL BURN
OH WHY NOT?
I need to follow up to say I reblogged this last night, and this morning I got some of the best news of my life, like, a life dream come true news thing.
Bagel what are your powers
FUCK, I though it was just another lucky meme but LISTEN. Since a week ago I was waiting a phone call to confirm me if I got a job or not in my university. I reblogged this yesterday’s night “just for fun and because I don’t want any bagel to be mad with me”, and today’s afternoon, while I was losing my time as always, the professor I was supposed to work with called me and asked me for my personal information to start working with her.
THE BAGEL POWERS ARE WAY TOO MUCH FOR THIS WORLD
I GOT A JOB THE DAY AFTER MY QUEUE POSTED THIS THE FIRST TIME AND I JUST REALIZED IT WHEN I SAW IT AGAIN HOLY GOD
The bagel hasn’t let me down yet!
I got a job offer after reblogging the bagel. Believe in the bagel!
Worth a try lol
i could use some good news or even a good girl
Go lil bagle! Show me your power!
Okii then!
THIS IS THE FIRST THING ON MY BLOG
I GOT ASKED OUT FOR THE FIRST TIME AFTER I REBLOGGED IT
wait but whats happening with the bagel tho
It’s burning, as is everything I’ve hoped for whenever I’ve reblogged a post like this
I just kinda wanna watch something burn?
Mood
You guys didn’t listen when I said Bagels hold an ancient and wonderous power.
Bagel time
I need this
Done
Toasted? Roasted? And boasted!
I want big bad Wesco boots
Mayb this bring something good
I learned recently that at least some tribes of early Britons (in particular the Silures and Picts) were actually dark-skinned people with curly black hair. Contemporary sources compared them to Iberians and even Africans.
This supposedly has to do with the fact that the original Celts were Iberian and their ancestors migrated across the strait of Gibraltar from Africa. The red-haired and pale look typically associated with Celtic identity likely comes from admixture from Germanic peoples. Remember that everyone’s ancestors came from Africa if you go far back enough.
Evidence of this phenotype can still be seen in some people today, particularly those from Wales and other western coastal regions. For example:
Welsh presenter Alex Jones
Welsh footballer Chris Coleman
Welsh actress Catherine Zeta-Jones who can notably pass for Hispanic.
English actor Ian McShane
It’s important to note that none of these people are immigrants or descended from immigrants. They all come from families native to the British Isles.
The take-home message here is A) don’t ever let anyone tell you British = pale and B) this
may actually be one of the most accurate versions of Guinevere we’ve seen so far.
This post is hard to find because Tumblr hates links so I’m giving it a boost.
Let’s talk about Cheddar Man.
Cheddar Man was a Mesolithic hunter-gatherer whose bones were found in Cheddar Gorge, Somerset, UK. He’s about 10,000 years old and from his DNA, it is likely that he had dark skin and pale eyes. He’s not alone! Other hunter-gatherers found in Spain, dating from around 7,000 years ago, showed similar genetics.
And even when we move into the Mesolithic-Neolithic transition and into the Neolithic, we have evidence of Whitehawk Woman and Lola (discovered in the UK and Denmark, respectively) - also with dark skin and pale eyes. Lola is incredibly cool because all we know of her is the DNA left on the birch pitch “chewing gum” she left behind.
It goes to show that when Homo sapiens radiated out of Africa (around 45,000 years ago, but now is not the time to talk about Out-of-Africa vs. Multiregional Continuity vs. Assimilation models), the switch from dark skin to pale skin did not happen as quickly as previously thought.
There are so many different skin tones because of the balance between UV radiation, folate, and Vitamin D. High UV exposure usually means darker skin because folate, an essential vitamin for growth and development, can be found in the skin and breaks down under high UV. High UV also means you’re getting plenty of Vitamin D from the sun, which you need for calcium absorption, amongst other things. Yes, more melanin also equals more protection from skin cancer, but from a natural selection point of view that doesn’t matter as much as folate and Vitamin D.
When humans started moving into areas with weaker UV (aka higher latitudes), that could have triggered a shift to paler skin to allow for more Vitamin D synthesis - and because UV is weaker overall, there isn’t as much concern about folate breaking down, either. However, if you’re getting enough Vitamin D from your diet, that shift from darker to paler skin need not happen - Inuit populations are a great example of this, and so are these historical examples.
It was probably only when during a shift to intensive agriculture in Neolithic Europe - and other areas, but Europe’s the one losing its mind over dark-skinned hunter-gatherers - that natural selection kicked in and there was a change where genes like MC1R shifted from producing eumelanin (brown-black pigment) to pheomelanin (reddish-pink). Intensive agriculture meant more monocropping and less diversity in diet. The Vitamin D that was once coming from the diet now needed to come from Vitamin D synthesis within the skin.
