listen to me, this is so so important: you've gotta get used to really giving it your 60% as a default. like don't half-ass it necessarily but try not to go over 70% or so of an ass. you'll feel better and live a happier more fulfilled life, and on the rare occasions where you do need to lock the fuck in you'll be able to pull off bullshit that the sad miserable wretches giving it their 100% can never dream of, because they're busy draining themselves dry and you have energy reserves to spare.

"If the atheist is wrong, he dies to discover an eternity an eternity in a hell he never believed in. If the Christian is wrong, the worst that happens is he dies and there is nothing more to discover."

That was a really popular sentiment during my time as a Christian. It is still one of the top ten most disingenuous things that I heard during that time. Because the worst that happens if the Christian is wrong is not that he dies and there is nothing more to discover. The worst that happens is a life wasted and harm caused in the name of building a bridge to a god that was never waiting on the other side. The worst that happens is that he hurts real people for a fake deity.

You are not separate from the harm you cause once you die. If anything, it clings to you more harshly. Your memory twists into the memory of pain and suffering.

have you guys heard about the greenland shark. some crazy shit happening there.

[venndaai]

they are sexually mature at ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY YEARS OLD.

their (live!) young gestate for. wait for it. eight to eighteen (??) YEARS. can have up to 10 at a time. good grief.

longest lifespan of any vertebrate, up to five hundred years

toxic flesh

has giant eyes but is usually blind because of a weird little crustacean that's evolved to live on and eat their eyes. this doesn't seem to bother them much.

lives in deep cold water and has the lowest swim speed and tail-beat frequency for its size across all fish species. just generally lives life in extreme slow motion

largest genome of any shark

eats everything including moose and polar bears

ma'am you are delightfully strange and I'm privileged to share a planet with you

this post prompted me to refresh my memory on Greenland Shark Facts and this detail about how they feed goes so hard

just vacuuming up their unsuspecting prey. whole !

[muffinlance]

Good news good news good news! Recent research suggests the eye parasites do NOT blind them!

Eye-opening research: Greenland sharks maintain vision for centuries through DNA repair mechanism

Dorota Skowronska-Krawczyk sits in her office, eyes fixed on the computer monitor in front of her. "You see it move its eye," says the UC Ir

My mom made pot pie for dinner and as she sat down at the table she said “Oh no! I forgot the peas!” and I said “then I guess it’s just an ‘ot ie” and now I have to eat alone in the living room.

I want all animals to become sapient enough to produce art specifically because I want to see what sort of sex homunculus caricature each species would create if given the ability to draw

[phantomrose96]

Like we've already got the anime waifu with the needle-waist and watermelon-bazonkas and borzoi-legs and bug-eyes. Now show me a fucked-up stupid beetle as drawn by a horny beetle. I want to see what a cartoonishly sexy lion looks like according to lions. I want to see the most ridiculous drawing of a peahen that would have the peacocks squaring up by the fountain.

[phantomrose96]

We give this power to ostriches and they just start drawing people

I am an abolitionist who believes so deeply in restorative justice that I actually have considered the alternatives in great detail. I am a repeat survivor of violent crime. It would be hypocrisy for me to have those ideals but never consider the human cost of them.

In the days that followed my ma's death, her boyfriend assaulted me. And he continued to do so for several months. It cost the state that charged him at least $50,000 a year in taxpayer money to jail him. And that is very much on the low end. That is enough money that we could have both received a $2000 monthly stipend for therapeutic services and saved money. Instead, he was imprisoned for a few years and neither of us got any kind of help. That didn't offer me any justice. He was out of prison, having received no help, before I was even 18.

And I want to be clear here. That man will have a hard life because of what he did. But that difficulty comes in the form of housing and job insecurity (things that directly lead to crime), instead of in the form of making it right.
