south korean transgirl who loves aquatic wildlife, deeeep.io, monsterverse, and some paleontology & ecology

[legendaryorca]

hiii I’m luna! welcome to my blog (profile image made by maia0486)

I am south korean (timezone GMT+9), pansexual, and transfem! no nsfw stuff, I am a minor

I like marine biology, ecology, and perhaps paleontology (hehe neurodivergence)

I also like drawing on my computer (vector design), I make art for a aquatic animal game called deeeep.io but it’s just for fun since it’s not a famous game

I am a big monsterverse fan! but I like other modern godzillas too, especially earth and shin

I listen to *fast* classical music like the ones by tchaikovsky (slow music bores me)

edit1) feb 10, 2025: I am no longer associated with deeeep.io, all relevant artworks posted here were made before this date

Unofficial Autism Post

[great-and-small]

Saddest thing ever is reading an academic paper about a threatened or declining species where you can tell the author is really trying to come up with ways the animal could hypothetically be useful to humans in a desperate attempt to get someone to care. Nobody gives a shit about the animals that “don’t affect” us and it seriously breaks my heart

[great-and-small]

“No I can’t come out tonight I’m sobbing about this entomologist’s heartfelt plea for someone to care about an endangered moth”

[bogleech]

This is how I learn there's a moth whose tiny caterpillars live exclusively off the old shells of dead tortoises.

[thepastisaroadmap]

[Image description: text from a section titled On Being Endangered: An Afterthought that says:

Realizing that a species is imperiled has broad connotations, given that it tells us something about the plight of nature itself. It reminds us of the need to implement conservation measures and to protect the region of which the species is a part. But aside form the broader picture, species have intrinsic worth and are deserving of preservation. Surely an oddity such as C. vicinella cannot simply be allowed to vanish.

We should speak up on behalf of this little moth, not only because by so doing we would bolster conservation efforts now underway in Florida, [highlighting begins] but because we would be calling attention to the existence of a species that is so infinitely worth knowing. [end highlighting]

But is quaintness all that can be said on behalf of this moth? Does this insect not have hidden value beyond its overt appeal? Does not its silk and glue add, potentially, to its worth? Could these products not be unique in ways that could ultimately prove applicable?

[rackiera]

I was so inspired by this I made it into a piece of art for a final in one of my courses for storytelling in conservation

[a-book-of-creatures]

[mossworm]

I used to work for two of the authors, Mark and Nancy Deyrup. They are true naturalists, interested in everything that lives, and wonderful human beings. They still live in central Florida where the tortoise shell moth lives, and have dedicated their whole lives to documenting the Florida scrub ecosystem and educating the public. I don't know if their names reach outside of entomology, but they are beloved figures here.

Long man has preferences

[fishyfishyfishtimes]

Perhaps one of the biggest fish tragedies of all time is that tunas, the large, fast, powerful apex predators of the open ocean that have evolved to be perfectly hydrodynamic thanks to millions of years of evolution, with fins that can be retracted into grooves in the body for maximum smoothness, which can heat up their swimming muscles and brains and eyes to become even more efficient hunters, who are in fact several species of fish, the largest of which (Atlantic bluefin) can reach four meters in length and rivals the marlins in being the largest perciform fish.....

....are just kinda known as a food item by most people. Like cod, this animal should be a symbol of raw power and speed, not fish dinner time

[fishyfishyfishtimes]

Do you people not know how to say anything about tunas without taking it back to fish dinner time

[bunjywunjy]

You know, "human for scale" when showing the sizes of animals living or extinct is kind of vague. We should use a specific famous person with a well-known height for scale. Like Sigourney Weaver

we must replace all "human for scale" figures in scientific literature with mr shaquille o'neal IMMEDIATELY
