it's always "oh the kids were stupid for playing a tape of a scholar reciting a demonic text" and never "hey that professor was a real idiot for recording himself reciting a demonic text"

Can you tell I like taking photos of tree-ussy?

[girldestroys]

Grieving. Pulling myself together and fortifying my sense of hope. The heat and chronic illness is keeping me inside, so here is a series from a few weeks ago. Magnolias in stages of bloom, reminding me of the cycles of nature. Growth follows decay.

I went back and tried again, this time actually adjusting focus and other details on the camera. I like the progress.

[praiseslaanesh]

First time using a “real” camera, and I misunderstood its functions completely. BUT Even forgetting to use the focus buttons on a single shot I still managed to get this one at the Bronx Zoo last week!

This bear from the Bronx Zoo thinks he’s people.

I felt like I needed to clarify some things before we could continue any more conversations on this godforsaken website.

I’m very proud of the European Robin, I think I really captured it.

ALSO A DADDY LONG LEGS is different in the UK vs USA. I learned that by arguing with some Brits because they said there was a daddy long legs on the wall, i looked and only saw an insect, argued with them all for 45 minutes until we all looked it up and saw that we were both correct.

British badger:  jovial fellow, eats toast and jam.  Might invite you in for a cuppa with the Mrs.  Agricultural nuisance.

American badger: pallas cat of a wolverine.  Very defensive.  Fuck immediately off. 

Bonus African badger:  Silverback gorilla of mustelids.  Should be a cryptid.  Bro, don’t even.  You are nothing to him.

Porcupine (North America)

Looks soft, isn’t

Quills are thin and flexible like hairs

Can climb trees

Perpetual bedhead

Smelly

Porcupine (Africa)

Does not look even remotely soft

Very long, stiff quills, especially on its back half

Can rattle hollow quills in its tail as a threat

Cannot climb trees

Will ram you ass-first to stab you if it’s mad

Porcupine (South/Central America)

Prehensile tail like a monkey

Short, thick quills

Snout looks like a marshmallow

Can hang from tree branches by its tail

Makes the cutest sounds in the world

[elodieunderglass]

Awwwww what an adorable addition!

[dungeonlv1]

@mildlybizarrecorvid thus seen like the knowledge you may enjoy

[mildlybizarrecorvid]

I honestly didn’t know there were non-African porcupines, I’d only seen the African ones

“nobody understands me” but not in the “edgy suffering from teenager syndrome mad at mom” kind of way, but the “lonely isolating young adult realization that the specific combination of mental illnesses and past experiences i’ve had have resulted in a pattern of behaviors that are often misinterpreted and misconstrued by others” type of way
