Hello dears! I am Mohammed and I am asking you to support my campaign to help me achieve my goal. I am in dire need of your support now to help me stay alive and safe. Gaza is a very dangerous place both in terms of living and lives. I need your financial support to enable me to get the basic needs for my family until the Rafah crossing is reopened to transport my family to safety and peace. Please help a family stay alive through your small donations or through your shares to others. Thank you very much for standing by those in need.

give ur reasoning too

[mammalidentifier]

Easy! All but one of these animals are artiodactyls, which is to mean, ungulates who have an even number of functional toes on the end of their limbs. The odd one out is the zebra, who, as a perissodactyl, has an odd number of functional toes instead! Just like horses and donkeys, actually, zebras have a single toe at the end of each leg. It’s as if we humans put all of our weight on our middle fingers and toes:

Now, I know what you’re thinking: what about dolphins? They have don’t have any toes! And the answer is: they don’t have any toes now, but they used to! Cetaceans evolved from hoofed, semi-aquatic animals that resembled modern chevrotains and had an even number of functional toes.

Art of the earliest known ancestor of the cetaceans, Indohyus, and one of its descendants, Pakicetus, who’s considered the most basal whale. Created by the brilliant Sergey Meleshin (FinwalART on Artstation).

Even though they’ve lost most of their superficial resemblance to terrestrial animals, though, cetaceans are still very much even-toed ungulates on the inside. And I mean it literally: a look at their digestive system will show you it resembles the digestive system of ruminants much more closely than the digestive system of other carnivores!

[mammalidentifier]

I wanted to add a diagram of the digestive system of a carnivore to compare it to the cetacean’s but I couldn’t find a high quality one that I liked, so I put a quick one together on my phone:

Many thanks to my cat Frodo for serving as the model. Anyway, as you can see, carnivores usually have a single stomach chamber, which makes the fact some cetaceans still keep their multiple chambered stomachs quite unusual!

ya'll who's up for group meowing

[narwhalsarefalling]

the aircraft emergency frequency (known as GUARD in the usa) is SUPPOSED to be used for emergencies. the frequency is 121.5 mhz. it is for all international air distress and emergencies and stuff (theres a different one for military)

however. for some goddamn reason. for at least the past ten years (maybe more) there has been meowing. random pilots going “meowww!” on the emergency frequency. this is often followed by at least 8 different people yelling “GUARRRRD” “YOUR ON GUARD” “STOP FUCKING MEOWING” and at least 3 others meowing also.

i have a radio and often tune into this frequency if i want to hear local airplane pilots/control tower operators act like absolute fools.

here’s some operators using GUARD to try to contact a flight that went missing (they found them) and just the absolute nonsense, the one guy spamming caribbean music, the voice changer, and the meowing and guard police are so fucking funny. GUARD is always doing shit like this. its great. (note that he isnt on the frequency until 1:30, so the other shit is just normal coworker conversations. “who the fuck eats honeydew” is just two coworkers not abusing resources).

usually radio etiquette is a lot more professional for these guys but mistakes do happen. people tend to be pretty quick on the jokes tho. if you ever want to listen to the funniest shit ever a lot of amateur radio operators upload the funniest dialogue they catch on youtube pretty often.

@antifatemptress is this true?

[antifatemptress]

Yes, unfortunately this is true. Pilots are children. And since we're all legally obligated to monitor guard at all times when able, these guys know they always have an audience. Things I've also heard on guard include:

• someone barking, which was nice variety and very much appreciated to see more canine representation in my field

• airline captains making full cabin announcements, not realizing they were transmitting, followed by several other pilots asking questions as if they were in the cabin

• airline captain making about half a cabin announcement before stopping cold, pausing for about 3 seconds, and mumbling "...I am so fucking sorry," then presumably making the announcement again to his actual cabin

• two pilots for different airlines speaking Italian to each other (one of these was actually my captain, the other guy was a friend from his last job)

• pilot doing a radio shockjock voice saying "aaalrighty folks you're listening to one-twenty-one-point-five the GUARRRRRRD, bringing you the lastest in aviation disasters, mishaps, and tragedieesss! Up next, four more hours of nonstop cat soundssssss!"
