only 62 more frogs until we hit 8,000 species described. the moment we've all been waiting for

[werewolf-transgenderism]

there are an average of about 150 new amphibian species described per year so I remain hopeful that 2026 will be the year of 8,000 frogs

[werewolf-transgenderism]

I do love that somebody tagged tumblr's own frog scientist on this post. chop chop dr scherz, we've got 62 more frogs to discover and you're the only frog scientist any of us knows

[werewolf-transgenderism]

a quote from people love dead jews on the topic of jews as docile and polite victims who remain kind after atrocities galore:

“Here’s how much some people dislike living Jews: they murdered 6 million of them. This fact bears repeating, as it does not come up at all in Anne Frank’s writings. Readers of her diary are aware that the author was murdered in a genocide, but this does not mean that her diary is a work about genocide. If it were, it is unlikely that it would have been anywhere near as universally embraced.

“We know this, because there is no shortage of writings from victims and survivors who chronicled this fact in vivid detail, and none of those documents have achieved anything like Frank’s diary’s fame. Those that have come close have only done so by observing those same rules of hiding, the ones that insist on polite victims who don’t insult their persecutors.”

the words of dead (murdered) jews exist in the worlds eye to prove a point about us. the words of living (survivors of atrocity) jews are only useful if they confirm the words of jews before the atrocity. we are a political token either way. to be a jew and to be angry threatens the paradigm they have built on the words of jews they killed. that we sat down and took it. the angry jew is a jew with agency. the angry jew forces them to reckon with what the world has done and continues to do. the angry jew speaks for themself and that is too loud. to control our own narrative is to ask for too much.

Every day I feel like I got really badly hurt by someone who intentionally tried to hurt me and at the time I was like “no don’t worry, it’s ok. I’m ok.” Partly because I was hurt and scared for them to know how badly they hurt me and partly because I needed to believe I actually was ok and not totally changed and scarred.

But after the same people try to hurt you again suddenly you realize how not ok you were from the first time you were hurt and how angry and scared you still are.

This happens in my personal life too. However it feels the exact same with how antisemitism, the thing I was promised was gone and over in the “modern” places I lived and worked is raging again from the same type of people who did it in the 1930s (normal, young, liberal, conservative, trendy.)

I feel like screaming “but YOU PROMISED IT WOULD NEVER HAPPEN AGAIN!!” just seeing where all this bullshit is going. Hearing how Epstein and trump and Israel and rabbis and Jews and orthodox get talked about and interchanged. It’s a very special specific kind of abuse.

[kick-a-long]

And that’s when you realize that “never again” is a promise you make yourself to never be a victim of that bullshit again. No one will do it for you and no one is coming to save you but you and people who treat you right.

Half the reason people hate Israel so much is because of their successful track record of proving they will no longer be bullied.

Jumblr, I have a burning need to know:

Haim Hefer wrote a song during the Yom Kippur War called המלחמה האחרונה, (Hamilchama Ha'achrona / The Last War) which has the following lyric:

אני מבטיח לך, ילדה שלי קטנה שזאת תהיה המלחמה האחרונה

It translates to "I promise you my little girl, that this will be the last war".

Yaakov Shwekey's שיר היונה (Shir Hayona / Song of the Dove) from the Libi Bamizrach album, has the following lyric,

כבר שרנו לך באמונה שלא תהיה עוד מלחמה

It translates to, "We have already sung to you [feminine] with faith that there shall be no more wars".

(I'm hoping so hard that the lines didn't get messed up where there's Hebrew and English on one line)

As a poll please:

Is the lyric in Shir Hayona referring to the lyric in Hamilchama Ha'achrona?

Yes, and I have proof

I think yes, but I don't have proof

No, and I have proof

I think no, but I don't have proof

Not sure

Scientists invented a fake disease. AI told people it was real: Nature.com

I'm a bit frightened for the time when someone less ethical than the person that did this decides to repeat the experiment but leave out the part where they come in later and announce that it was fake and people wind up diagnosed with the fake condition and all kinds of wacky hi jinks ensues.

To every Jewish person reading this, I hope one specific thing in your life gets tangibly, materially better within the next six months.

Like, whatever is the first thing that comes to mind for you, I hope it is resolved, gets better, improves.

I care about you and I am rooting for you.
