Untitled, for now

[snorlaxatives]

no offense but the whole kissin kate barlow and “i can fix that” sam storyline from holes is quite frankly one of the most gripping and tragic in the history of cinema and i’m still not recovered from it

Relating to that last anon about oranges, if there was a way to get only one ovary (I don’t remember the proper word) fertilized, what would happen? Nothing? A single orange slice? An orange with no slices? Love your blog btw

yes!! this but this is called ‘incomplete pollination’ and i cant find any pics of it in oranges but it is a thing that happens, especially in places with fewer bees and pollinators (like the pollen just…doesnt quite get there). this honey bee website has a few examples: 

pears (right one is missing a couple):

cucumbers:

tomatoes (notice that the right side is producing the correct hormone to make it ripen, but the left isnt, because….its empty….theres nothing there….):

this is apparently what it looks like in watermelons, where the lack of tissue development causes it to split on the inside:

strawberries: 

raspberries (healthy fruit at far left, middle and right are incompletely pollinated):

the plants just….dont really know what to do and Do That instead, and wonkiness ensures. its all fun and games until u realize this is what the fruits of a ton of plants will consistently look like if the bees die out

So Blue, after the play, Friday at 10, you know where I’ll be. No pressure for you to show up but I hope you do. Because you deserve a great love story too. Love, Simon.

The shoebill is primarily a silent bird, but one of the few noises it makes is a machine gun-like bill-clattering, generally used by members of a nesting pair to communicate with each other and their nestlings.  Shoebills may also utter croaking sounds, cow-like moos, whines, and nestlings may beg for food with hiccups.

i love animals and i have nothing against this bird but also the size of it… the way it moves? the way it gazes at the camera/the person holding the camera? this creature is so singularly unsettling to me and i would really die of fright if it turned towards me to make that noise

[babyfairy]

this is really the worst thing i’ve ever seen

[heathyr]

I just experienced a primal reaction to the sound this bird made and the first thing I could think of is: this is what seeing a dinosaur would be like

[shakchunni]

do i deserve back pain at this age

Screenwriter Andrew Davies brought out sexual element in Les Mis adaptation

Screenwriter Andrew Davies has said that, in keeping with his reputation, he has found the sexual element in his BBC adaptation of Les Miserables.

His take on Victor Hugo’s 19th century classic, starring Dominic West, David Oyelowo and Lily Collins, is due to air over the festive period.

Davies, known for adaptations including Vanity Fair, Pride And Prejudice and War And Peace, told Radio Times magazine: “I have a reputation for bringing out, and (some say) even inventing the sexual element in the great classics.

“It is there in Les Miserables, too, but deeply buried.”

“Curiously, neither Valjean nor Javert appears to have a sex life, but we sense something under the surface in Valjean’s response to Fantine and his over-protective love for Cosette, and one can even see a twisted kind of love in Javert’s obsession with Valjean,” he said.

Davies said the roles called for the “finest available actors”.

“We were thrilled to be able to cast Dominic West as Valjean and David Oyelowo as Javert,” he said.

“That casting reflects the often ignored fact that France, like Britain, has a multicultural history going back to Napoleon’s time and beyond.”

Honestly fuck this guy

All I’m reading out of this is

Possible Valjean/Fantine because a man can’t help a woman unless he loves her romantically - the age gap makes me really uncomfortable

Making Javert gay but Valvert unrequited because that makes is “edgy and interesting” I … can’t deal with that

VALJEAN MUST FUCK BECAUSE HE IS A MAN AND HE IS THE PROTAGONIST - honestly fuck you

IT IS NOT IMAGINABLE FOR TWO GROWN MEN NOT TO FUCK - double fuck you
