Ants be like that
I used to keep track of the different ant colonies in my yard as a child and it was the wildest shit. You could tell the difference between colonies by colors & pattern if you looked closely enough. Theyâd stage ant wars on the sidewalks that lasted days, just ants murdering each other, and the cleanup afterwards would last days longer as the survivors pick up and carry away the carcasses. Once I saw a war happening between the colony that lived under the berry bush and a colony I didnât recognize, and evidently the berry colony lost, because after the war their nest site was empty⊠and then a few days later was inhabited by the other colony that had fought them.
Once at a lake I saw an ant travel like 3 meters across flat rock carrying a dead ant, and he kept going until he got to the cliff side and then kept going down towards the water, and he didnât stop until he got to where the rock was wet. Then he stood there for a few seconds, dropped the corpse into the water, waited a little longer, and then headed back the way he came. I feel like I witnessed a ceremony
So, do you think the Queen is still alive? I heard she hasn't been seen in public since October.
She was seen in public on November 18th, on Dec 16th, and she did the Christmas broadcast. Also, she stripped the Duke of York of his "military affiliations and royal patronages" (you think anyone else gets to do that?).
She's 95. When she dies, you'll know. Everyone will know. And Charles will be King, and the postage stamps and coins in the UK will be all wrong.
If she was dead, she got better.
Now I believe she's dead, yes.
New favorite TikTok interaction
If anyone asks you, YES, Christopher Eccleston was with you all day. No, he never left, not even to go to the bathroom.
saying âhm. must be the curseâ every time something bad happens and refusing to elaborate is my new hobby
The drama. The injustice. Free him
Every time I see a video of a cat thatâs just meowing constantly, I think about how they developed meowing exclusively as a way to communicate with humans.
Past kittenhood, I mean. Kittens meow for the same reason human babies cry; to tell their mom âI have needs and wants and Iâm so so small and I hardly even know it!â But adult cats have other ways to communicate with each other. They only continue to meow because they realize itâs the only part of their language that gets have anything close to the correct response from humans.
Anyway. Whenever I see videos like this where a human and cat are doing that sort of call-and-response routine, like-
*human talks at the cat like its a person*
meow
*human talks at cat like its a person*
meow
-so on and so forth, like I dunno, it just hits different somehow. Like itâs not the same as dogs barking at humans, dogs barking is a ânaturalâ dog instinct (to my knowledge), but adult meowing is a specifically domestic behavior. They developed it for us. They know we canât really understand them, the same way the mom in this video knows the cat canât understand her, but they meow at us anyway. And this catâs plaintive meows are it begging to be set free of the grooming torture, obviously, but sometimes it seems like itâs just a call and response.
Like youâll see a video of a human talking at a cat, and the cat meows back between sentences, and the cat is like lying with its eyes half closed or sitting with its back turned to the human and itâs meowing back anyway and you stop and think about it and realize that theyâre doing the same thing.
The cat and the human talking at each other when they donât need anything from each other, thatâs- thatâs just conversation. Itâs literally cross-species small talk, because both the cat and the human are engaging in it just for the sake of hearing a response back.
They canât understand each other at all, but they continue to communicate purely for the sake of communication. For the pleasure of each otherâs company. For the sake of socializing with each other. We donât even understand each other, and itâs still small talk.
And you think about that and you remember again that adult cats without humans donât meow and itâs just their human company comfort language and you cry.
Oh fuck Iâm so sorry I didnât realize I reblogged this from you lmao
No worries, Iâm still happy you thought of me!
chris pine in Princess diaries 2 was the epitome of male wife antics he never did anything expect strutting around the palace grounds looking for drama and gossip and loved to cook and was basically a trophy husband to Anne Hathaway.......

For those who don't know: Ikumi Nakamura is the woman who was senior artist on Bayonetta, and designed the titular character along with Hideki Kamiya. Their greatest moment of bonding was over their insistence that Bayonetta keep her glasses on at all times. Nakamura cannot go to horny jail. She is the warden.
Happy pride month to her and her exclusively
she made a comic about the experience on twitter
The fucking Shiba judge.
Our queen! LOL.
Map of the United States but now each state touches the ocean
@mapsontheweb @the-real-numbers
All states can have a little sip of ocean water. As a treat.
hm. kentucky beach. tidewater, kentucky. norfolk, kentucky, home to the largest US navy installation on the east coast.
the picturesque outerbanks of tennessee.
the big apple: new york city, michigan.
Make one where the fewest possible states can access the ocean.
biden announcing that he's banning russian oil imports (effectively mandating an increase in gas prices) immediately after announcing that everyone should stop working from home and go back to driving into the office would be funny if this was a sitcom and not, like, my life
Ukrainians are getting murdered and have to flee from their homes.
Americans: this is about me đȘ
is me going back into the office supposed to stop the murder thing
As I grow older I feel my capacity to understand that Miss Piggy is not a real person reached a peak in my adolescence and is now on a steady decline. I watched a Wendy Williams interview and there's this part that's like "can we get a ring cam!" and Miss Piggy shows her bling and I'm just like fuck she's so iconic. Miss Piggy who are you wearing? Miss Piggy have you ever considered running for office??
Like literally every time I see Miss Piggy there's a period where I need to readjust to the fact that it's not a person, and I feel that period is getting longer and longer with every instance
now all my Youtube recommendations are filled with Miss Piggy interviews. Iâm not complaining. Miss Piggy whatâs your secret to ageing so graciously
It's not just the audience; professional journalists, hosts, and actors report it is legitimately difficult to not see the Muppet as a person, and it is, in fact, incredibly easy to interview or act with them once the performer gets properly set up.
Like that one time they couldn't figure out why Kermit's audio was so garbage... then realized they'd put the mic on him instead of the performer.
this has been a very longstanding issue - before the muppet show was even a thing some muppets appeared in commercials, such as rolf the dog they had a continual problem where when people directing/shooting the dogfood commercial would give dirrection to rolf that they would be speaking to the muppet, to which rolf REPEATEDLY had to tell them âi cant hear you, you have to talk to himâ and point at the performer underneath him rolf is one of the most embarrassing muppets to need this direction as the performer is this, damn, obvious when not on camera
âsir, i am a bathroom mat, the man you need to talk to is back thereâ
I did an interview with Gonzo one time, and when I got into the Zoom call, it was the actor on screen trying to figure out his audio. And then once he did, he went like âOKAY!â and then just like dove to the floor and it was Gonzo and there was never a moment when I doubted that the dude was just Gonzoâs tech guyÂ
Writing about a child rapist did not make Vladimir Nabokov a child rapist.
Writing about an authoritarian theocracy did not make Margaret Atwood an authoritarian theocrat.
Writing about adultery did not make Leo Tolstoy an adulterer.
Writing about a ghost did not make Toni Morrison a ghost.
Writing about a murderer did not make Fyodor Dostoevsky a murderer.
Writing about a teenage addict did not make Isabel Allende a teenage addict.
Writing about dragons and ice zombies did not make George R.R. Martin either of those things.
Writing about rich heiresses, socially awkward bachelors, and cougar widows did not make Jane Austen any of those things.
Writing about people who can control earthquakes did not make N.K. Jemisin able to control earthquakes.
Writing about your favorite characters and/or ships in situations that you choose does not make you a bad person.
Itâs a shame that in this day and age these things need to be said.
Or, in short: the narrator =/ the author.
You know what else is a shame? This nowadays tendency of putting on the author the responsibility of teaching their readers morality.
Authors are allowed to write morally ambiguous characters.
Authors are allowed to write downright despicable characters - and guess what they are even allowed to make despicable characters charismatic and likeble and the protagonists of their stories if they wish - because absolute monsters exist only under the bed.
It is not up to the author to spoonfeed the readers about morality and Yes I know this character did a bad thing and I am going going to show it in the story and make other characters call them out of it andâ Bullshit.
The authors should be able to write what they want without having thousands of people jumping and their throats claiming to know them, their ideas and their morality based on what they write.
Itâs not up to the author to teach you about what is right and what is wrong.
Itâs not up to the author to teach you about what is right and what is wrong.
The tags speak the truth.
Just a reminder that there's no marriage equity until disabled people can get married without losing their benefits
Had to have the "do we get married for tax benefits or lose any chance of me getting disability benefits" talk with my boyfriend a few weeks back... Fun.
what composer you should fight
Bach - no. just no. one time bach got into a fight with a bassonist over his bassoon part, and, i quote John Elliot Gardiner, âwas forced to draw his sword and defend himself.â bassoon rage is terrifying, and bach was able to hold him off even though it was a surprise attack. donât fight bach. youâll lose. (plus if by some miracle you won, youâd have 18 children after you to avenge their father. do you really want small bachs chasing you the rest of your days?)
Handel - you could take handel probably. no killer instinct. do not let him get too close - he threatened to throw a singer out of a window once and could probably have carried through. take him down through attrition.
Haydn - you could absolutely take haydn. take him down quickly before he has a chance to trick you.
Mozart - depends. instrumentalists probably possess enough resentment to take him on easy. vocalistsâŠcould you really bring yourself to fight mozart? his arias are so nice. so flashy. so singable. go fight haydn instead. unless youâre a contralto. then absolutely fight mozart. fight everyone on this list.
Beethoven - DO NOT FIGHT BEETHOVEN. DO NOT FIGHT BEETHOVEN. DO NOT FIGHT BEETHOVEN. you will lose.
Rossini - absolutely fight rossini. youâll win. easy.Â
Schubert - why would you want to fight schubert. he is a precious tiny forest spirit who just wants to compose lovely songs. the only person who is authorized to fight schubert is the accompanist who has just been asked to play erlkonig for the sixth time. and even they will feel bad afterwards. go fight rossini instead.
Berlioz - yes. fight berlioz. absolutely fight berlioz. sure, afterwards you wonât be able to brag that you defeated berlioz since no one outside of music knows who he is, but at least youâll have a good victory on your hands.
Liszt - tough fight. liszt is 6 feet tall and has massive yaoi hands judging from his music. take him down from afar.Â
Chopin - please dont fight chopin. youâre better than that. it would be too easy. give yourself more of a challenge.
Brahms - this is a fight that you can win. just tell him youâre from the future and he never lived up to Beethovenâs name. donât feel bad when he starts to cry. just take him down then and there.
Schumann - donât do it. the problem is not robert himself, itâs the fact that clara will come after you. and she will beat you. this has nothing to do with you or your fighting abilities - if you fight robert schumann clara will find you and clara will end you.
Wagner - ABSOLUTELY FIGHT WAGNER. PLEASE fight wagner. I will pay literal, actual money to watch someone beat up wagner. you will get lots of help from everyone else in the music world including other composers. even if you have just fought them. everyone wants to see richard âdickâ wagner taken down. the only person in the music world more utterly fightable than wagner is andrew lloyd webber.
Verdi - go fight wagner instead.
Stravinsky - do not fight stravinsky. he will fuck you up.
Mahler - the same fight as brahms, except even easier.
Schoenberg - schoenberg has nothing to lose. he will be vicious. he will fight to his last breath. and when you are standing over him, bloodied, he will look up at you. and he will thank you. you will carry a twinge of uneasiness around with you for the rest of your life. occasionally you will hear a tone row in the distance. do not listen, do not investigate, or schoenberg will have won after all.
he gets it
