Oh My Goshh

It is impossible to live without failing at something, unless you live so cautiously that you might as well not have lived at all - in which case, you fail by default.

or we could let an unnecessary danger to swimmers die.

[yourladyindank]

No the fuck we can’t. Because last I checked humans don’t own the fucking ocean, and last I checked, they’re IMPORTANT apex predators, a super necessary part of the ecosystem. Not to mention NEW YORKERS bite 10x as many people as sharks do a year. More people die from lightning and fireworks than form sharks.

Sharks aren’t a problem. They never have been. People are.

[jeza-red]

if you swim where the sharks are, it’s on you buddy, the animal gotta eat you don’t gotta swim

[gluttonousgoddess]

To @keyhollow let sharks die naturally, don’t go hunting them. Last I checked there’s no such thing as an important apex predator. Why on Earth are New Yorkers biting people? Know what we did to lightning? We found ways to deal with them. I’d say firework damage is usually from stupidity.

To @jeza-red so nobody can enjoy the beach now. The animal doesn’t got to eat innocent bystanders that are definitely not fish.

[yourladyindank]

I’m gonna ignore 95% of that and focus on the apex predator part.

They’re super important because they control prey animal populations, of prey animal populations get out of control it can heavily and possibly irreversibly damage flora, other fauna, and land. A keystone predator is literally irreplaceable

[gluttonousgoddess]

A “keystone predator” is nowhere near irreplaceable.

[yourladyindank]

Do you know what keystone means??

[gluttonousgoddess]

First off, calling something a keystone predator is erroneous at best. Second, keystones can be replaced.

[yourladyindank]

No

You literally just have no idea what you’re talking about.

Sharks play a critical role in keeping our oceans healthy and in balance because most shark species are at the top of the marine food web.

The Importance of Sharks

@miasmicsiren If you’re too stupid to read adult content, there’s even a children’s book on the subject!

Cherrypicking sources from shark apologists won’t work for you either.

[beckyhop]

Ah yes. “Shark apologists”. Those who defend the problematic behavior of *checks notes* preserving species and protecting the ecosystem.

[eroticcannibal]

Sharks aren’t even that dangerous to humans! Not only are shark bites PRETTY DAMN RARE, but they can be easily avoided by taking steps like not swimming where sharks are and utilising specially designed swim suits that prevent the sharks from mistaking you for food, and even shark mail, that stops their teeth piercing your flesh if they do bit you! You can learn how to drive them off in case of an attack and not swim alone to increase your chances of survival, should the worst happen! Sharks, the majority of the time, bite out of curiosity because they don’t have hands. Don’t look interesting. (Also they are absolute BABIES and you should interact them with the guidance of a professional if you have the chance.)

There is a lot going on here but i think what i’m caught on the most is “shark apologists”.

The Perfect Aryan Baby and the Ideal Aryan Soldier. Both Jewish. 1935/1939

Two examples of Nazi propaganda, meant to show ideal Aryans, both showing people of Jewish descent.

The baby, Hessy Levinsons, was born to Jewish parents Jacob and Pauline Levinsons. The photographer who took the photo submitted it to a contest for perfect Aryan children. Fearing that the Nazis would discover that their family was Jewish, Taft’s mother informed the photographer that they were Jewish. The photographer told her mother, Pauline, that he knew they were Jewish and deliberately entered Taft’s photograph into the contest because he “wanted to make the Nazis ridiculous”. Taft told the German-language newspaper Bild that “I can laugh about it now” in July 2014, “but if the Nazis had known who I really was, I wouldn’t be alive.”

The soldier, Werner Goldberg, was born and raised Christain but had a Jewish father. At the beginning of 1938, Goldberg served a six-month term in the Reich Labour Service whose uniform, as Goldberg later recalled, “had a swastika on an armband”.Shortly after the beginning of the war, Goldberg’s photograph appeared in the Sunday edition of the Berliner Tagesblatt newspaper with the caption “The Ideal German Soldier”; the photograph had been sold to the newspaper by the official army photographer. It was later used on recruitment posters. Goldberg was forced out of the army in 1940, and in 1942 fled with his father to Switzerland

“At least during the internment of Japanese-Americans, I and other children were not stripped from our parents. We were not pulled screaming from our mothers’ arms. We were not left to change the diapers of younger children by ourselves.”

Absent everything else, I’m kind of amazed I finally found a WW2 propaganda poster that’s, like, good art on an aesthetic level. Props to 1940s Mexico?

Kleancolor Femme Lipsticks

Perfect shades of pastel lipsticks in a twelve pack. Inexpensive and extremely effective and pigmented lipsticks. Sold on Amazon.

[agentgaylahad]

I actually got these and lemme tell ya man

1. Colors are V GOOD. Only a few are less than opaque. 2. Smells actually nice? Usually with cheap lipstick it stinks but these are pleasant and mild. 3. Feels smooth and soft. No flakiness or bothersome shit. 4. Very smearable–kind of a symptom of being inexpensive. Still, manageable especially for costume purposes.
