Why do kiwis have such massive fucking eggs “it’s because they are related to ostriches and-“ yeah ok but like why didn’t they evolve smaller eggs if I was in charge I would do that shit pronto. Thoughts?

their big eggs are actually that size for a similar reason to human babies having massive heads!! being bigger at birth can be important.

kiwi are trying SO HARD to become mammals. fur-like feathers, whisker-like feathers, little beady eyes, nocturnal, great sense of smell.... that's basically a mammal!! they're well suited for life on the forest floor.

their big eggs work alongside these adaptations to give them a leg up in the bird world. their young hatch already feathered! they're precocial, which means they're born with the ability to open their eyes and move around. like foals.

big egg = more powerful offspring from the get-go. babies don't need to spend precious time vulnerable while they develop on the ground when they've already done all that in the egg!

(unfortunately, with the introduction of mammals to aotearoa, these adaptations are a little less useful...)

Important addition: baby kiwi come out of the egg looking like they've come out of a shower with a hangover

They look like one of the downsides of emerging from an egg fully formed is how aware you are off just having come out on egg. First minute alive, already dealing with some fucking experience.

for anyone listening to or watching the hootie frutti video by katseye, that's not at all what brazilian music sounds like, or what we are like. contrary to stereotypes, not every brazilian person is oversexualised, wearing the tiniest clothes and sexualising themselves for others

it's not like that stereotype about brazilian women being super sexual and wearing bikinis isn't reinforced enough am i right /s

Re: comment section

Mi mana brazuca dice que la mitad de las palabras en brasilero significan pene dependiendo del contexto. No se puede censurar pene sin censurar la cultura brasilera entera. Tumblr don't silence brazillian voices.

Why do right-wingers crackpots believe the most boring conspiracy theories?

Oh they’re putting things in the water/food/vaccines? Elites are sexual predators? How unimaginative.

How about something more creative like the government feeding radioactive isotopes to the mentally disabled?

Or giving black men fake syphilis treatments to study the disease?

Or kidnapping people and subjecting them to LSD and sensual depravation to try and develop mind control?

Or secretly hiring Nazi scientists to work in NASA?

We’ve all heard of masculinity in a peacock way, but I’d like to pose a new idea: femininity in an anglerfish way

Combine anglerfish and peacock sexual dimorphism and you get this big awesome predator and her beautiful husband Singular Piece Of Glitter

Once i had a teacher who was OBSESSED with

A) resource guarding

And

B) Harry Potter

So naturally, every time someone didn’t have a pencil she would charge them 10 house points (which, even in schools where there is an actual house point system, probably doesn’t fucking happen). She openly held the belief that she had to ascribe value to these precious writing implements or else no one would appreciate them, a concept evidenced by, i kid you not, how when homeless people are given houses for free they let them fall into disarray, because they didn’t pay for the house and therefore didn’t care about it. I, a pissed off 13 year old with a vendetta against power hungry teachers and also JK Rowling, brought a 100 pack of pencils to school so that whenever someone had to ask for one, instead of being charged a fictional currency and upsetting their fellow, deeply competitive students, i would just give them one. If the pencil didn’t come from the teacher, she couldn’t charge points for it.

This upset her. She couldn’t assert her power over the 1st period Advanced 8th Grade Math Class anymore. For i, The Pencil Liberator, had come to put an end to her tyrannous behavior.

She told me to stop about 30 pencils in.
