When ants die, a few days later they emit oleic acid, which tells the living ants to dispose of their corpse.

A myrmecologist named Ed Wilson discovered this and dropped the chemical on a living ant. It was immediately carried off, despite the fact that it was still moving, and clearly not dead.

Bring out your dead. Eh, close enough.

IM NOT YET DEAD SIR

lazorsandparadox

You left out the part where the ant, believing HERSELF to be dead, stayed in self imposed exile in the ant graveyard until the acid wore off and she realized she was not supposed to be in the ant graveyard.

#Peach began as a basic damsel in distress #but over the years she’s become an iconic character in her own right #and I love that

The closest she ever had to a sexy costume was in the Mario Strikers series, but even then it was pretty tame with just showing her midriff.

Also: if he touches the woman who works in the copy center, but not the woman who’s a regional director, it’s not a case of “he just can’t help himself.”

He can; he’s just decided who’s an acceptable target.

^^^That right there. They definitely pick and choose their targets based on how vulnerable they assume they are.

Honestly you are making me fall in love with sea slugs & nudibranchs @end0skeletal.

end0skeletal

Good! They want to be loved.

Fun fact: Leaf sheep retain the chloroplasts from the food they eat and use them to manufacture their own energy - just like plants.

image description under the cut because this is a whole-ass 5 page comic. (sorry!)

happy pride. i drew this instead of things i should be doing. it was a good excuse to draw a lot of beautiful girls using references (found under the cut). it’s messy and bad, but i think the message gets across. i love being a lesbian because it helped me love myself more.

Anarchy is also frequently portrayed as a woman

I was wondering when you were gonna use that picture

I’m more partial to this portrayal, personally:

“Every other industrialized country has mental illness, video games, and “soft target” schools, as well as minimal school prayers and flag saluting, without our mass-shooting epidemic. In Japan, where video gaming is widely popular and gun laws are strict, there have been no mass shootings in the past year—never mind hundreds of them in eight months. Researchers have found no link between mass shootings and violent video games. Ditto mental illness. In a study for the National Institutes of Health, professors of psychiatry Paul Applebaum, of Columbia, and Jeffrey Swanson, of Duke, found that only “3 percent—5 percent of violent acts are attributable to serious mental illness, and most do not involve guns.” And another psychiatrist at Columbia, Michael Stone, found that about 65 percent of mass murderers exhibited no mental disorder, and a 2016 analysis by the Department of Justice found a similar rate, about 20 percent, of psychotic disorders among mass killers.”
