tiny astronomers out there astronomizing

Speaking of the night sky (which I was several posts back), here are several amazing papers about how dung beetles use the night sky and the Milky Way to navigate:

How Dung Beetles Steer Straight

How dim is dim? Precision of the celestial compass in moonlight and sunlight 

Light pollution forces a change in dung beetle orientation behavior  

It seems that they use polarization patterns in light, both during the day & at night. They’re the only creatures known to be able to see the polarization of nighttime light, which is much weaker than that visible during the day. Some of this research also involved taking the beetles to a planetarium & observing them navigating by projections of the Milky Way, which seems like a good time for all involved.

How to Make a Fake Text Post

There are a few ways of doing this...

Method 1: Random Tangent

In this, you simply ramble about whatever comes to mind. Puppies? Yes! Talk about your favorite breed. Rant away!

You can format the post however you like, making its appearance pass for a legitimate post. Little do skimmers know that it’s watered-down content. 

It’s also better than Lorem Ipsum. You’re able to entertain readers, allowing them to truly imagine their own posts in place of yours. Plus, it adds a personal touch.

Method 2: FAQ

It’s exactly what you’re thinking. Have any tips or tricks when it comes to your theme? Why not share them! You can also use this method for chat posts.

So what are some example questions you could use to fill the space? Here are a few:

Is this theme free?

Are there other awesome features within {Theme Name}?

Who is {Theme Name} best suited for?

Why should people use {Theme Name}?

Method 3: Sell your theme

Charm the pants off your reader. Just be silly with it as you compliment the unseen person.

Example: May I say, you are looking especially lovely today. Yes, I’m talking to you--person reading this. You are gorgeous. Never forget that!

Text Post with Image

● Not all posts with images are a photo post. Sometimes, you want to add a visual to written content. Simply put, there are many exceptions to the rules. Don’t feel like being defined by a category? Embrace that! Rather than coloring between or outside the lines, you’re allowed to slip between the cracks–finding another path as of yet undiscovered.

● Who wouldn’t want plenty of visualization? Variety is the spice of life. Without seeing all the variables, we’re left with a colorless impression. Instead, allow this post to act as yet another example.

I just want to set yet another thing straight - I’m one of those people who tends to say “if you don’t like it, don’t watch it”. And I recently realised that some people interpret that as “shut up, you’re annoying me” or “shut up, you don’t have the right to voice an opinion, get out”. Which couldn’t be further from the truth.

I’m not telling anyone to shut up. If I mean “shut up”, I’ll say “shut up”. I’ve no reason to say it, though. Have at it. But I need to distance myself from it, because it’s frustrating. I get frustrated on behalf of the people doing it because I put myself in their shoes. And suddenly I have this problem. And so, I try to find a solution. I do that. I don’t dwell on problems, I look for solutions, because that’s how I can make it better. And if there’s a story I don’t like, I can only see two solutions: change the story, or stop reading/watching it and find a story I do like.

Changing the story usually isn’t an option. No amount of arguing or complaining or feedback is going to get someone to change their story when tons of people love it the way it is. JJ Abrams is never going to listen to me. The only thing that’s fully in my own power to do is to walk away.

So if I say “just stop watching” it’s because I see people talk about being upset, crying, feeling terrible, because of a TV show. And to me, that’s not the point of entertainment, that’s not how it should be at all, and it’s frustrating and I feel bad for them. I genuinely feel like they’d be happier if they let it go and walked away. Because that’s how it is for me. I might be wrong. It might be different for other people. I don’t know. But that’s the intent behind it every time I say this. I’m not trying to get anyone to shut up, I’m trying to solve the problem. I’m telling myself to let it go and walk away because that’s my actual, genuine solution.

I’m gonna stop saying it. But I’ll probably always think it. No TV show or movie or book is worth genuine heartache.
