Weird peeve time. Calling lab grown gemstones “fake” is stupid because it’s the same shit just not formed naturally. An artificially grown diamond is the same shit as a natural diamond it is the exact same material bro it’s all fuckign carbon

[tlirsgender]

It’s carbon it’s pretty and it didn’t involve slave labor what’s not to love??? Hi I’m having geology opinions tonight apparently. And I’m right

[tlirsgender]

There is so much bullshit in the diamonds industry to be mad about tbh. It also ties into the bullshit of the wedding industry as a whole but we don’t have the time to unpack all that

[val-ritz]

not even going to lie, the day i learned i could get like 15 lab grown rubies the size of dimes for $20 is the day i spent $20 on rubies, and i have never once said to myself “man, i wish this cost $1,600 and the lives of eight children to produce”

[fuckyeahmineralogy]

We are a pro-lab-grown mineral blog here, not only is it massively cheaper but massively more ethical as well in many cases.

[thegreenpea]

another very cool lab grown gem is Moissanite. It has a 9.25 on the mohs hardness scale where diamond is a 10. Moissanote also has a 2.69 refractive index in comparison to diamond’s 2.419 and here is the difference 

and the best thing about moissanite? It is all lab grown and it costs only a fraction of what diamond costs. So fuck the diamond indsutry and buy lab grown gems which cost significantly less

[rubixpsyche]

Also it’s just cool to think of some mad scientist lookin person doing shit against the law of the universe and making pretty gems for you. Like cmon. This shouldnt be allowed probably. But humans really be like on gOD i want some shiny an just started MAKIN em

[zathechaosgod]

for years people wanted alchemy, well now we have alchemy and we’re making gemstones out of it and suddenly “it doesn’t count” anymore

The guys in these photos are males in the process of transitioning into breeding plumage, which is why they're all patchy! When they're fully in breeding plumage, they look like this:

Females and males out of breeding plumage look like this:

You can see how the males in the original post are partway between the two! The species is also known as the Red Avadavat or the Red Munia, and they're native to southern Asia

‘roofs’ looks unbelievably stupid typed out. why can we not say ‘rooves.’ clown language with clown plurals

[lovesodeepandwideandwell]

If the plural of roof were rooves, the singular of grooves would have to be groof. Is that what you want?

[currentlycryingaboutlancelot]

point taken I’ll do anything to avoid groof

If you see this on your dashboard, reblog this, NO MATTER WHAT and all your dreams and wishes will come true.

[jae-felidae]

Oh hey! Haven’t seen this in forever! Didn’t reblog it when it came across me before, not gonna skip it this time, I need some good vibes.

Very curious doggo

Reminder that puffins are extremely social and like to fit in with their friends, so they will adopt mannerisms and interests of the group. So there is a good chance this little guy is trying to be friends with the photographer by showing his interest in the camera.

[willow-wanderings]

TIL photographers are a lot like puffins, cuz we also make friends by showing interest in your camera XD

[dykelliewilliams]

Reminds me of the time researchers were trying to get puffins to land in a specific area so the put decoys up to draw them in but the decoys only had 1 leg and

[legally-a-bastard]

this is so fucking cute

Trying to get a good photo for the website, and she was just so dang cute about it.

[t00thpasteface]

so my mom's been clearing out her mom's house in order to sell it and has been gifting me a lot of random odds and ends from it— cut crystal jewelry, rose scented soaps, a brita pitcher, etc— but she also just emptied that house's entire spice cabinet and just dumped it all in a box and brought it to me to pick through bc i do a lot of cooking/baking. and. people. listen. most of it was 5, 10, even 20 years past its expiration date. but nothing could have prepared me for this one tiny tin of white pepper.

NINETEEN EIGHTY NINE ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME?!

[hungrymilliek]

Not to put too fine a point on it, but...this pepper has been expired almost as long as I've been alive. I was two when this pepper went bad.

This pepper was presumably purchased during the last two years of the Reagan administration. It expired during George H. W. Bush's first year in office. This pepper went bad within like two months of the Berlin Wall coming down.

The US has fought two entire wars with Iraq since this pepper expired.

yeah but only if i use my hands

[terrierthing]

dog body language is soo context dependent..yesterday brick stood in the kitchen, head down, ears back, tail not tucked but very down, glancing around and occasionally yawning. you'd think she's anxious in an otherwise calm environment.

her kong was 30 minutes late. i put the plates on the table and then lunch took way way longer than usual and she was standing there very pathetically because clearly she's starving. she needs a kong so bad. why are you not giving it to her. why. why. hey. look how miserable she is. look. witness me.

[terrierthing]

guess who's kong is late again
