A worthy subscription service

Vitable makes getting the vitamins I need so easy! Vitamins are so hard to navigate in grocery stores because you don't know whether they're effective, if you're taking the right ones, or even if you need them at all. 

I remember my dad was on a big vitamin craze after he realised many of his friends took multivitamins but after consulting a GP he realised that his vitamin levels are actually fine and he didn't need anything at all. That's what I love about Vitable. You take an easy quiz and it gives you a recommendation of vitamins and minerals that may be right with you. You can also double-check with a GP or primary health Dr through a blood test, and then it takes out the hassle of remembering to purchase more when you run out through a simple subscription service! And it’s inexpensive. Packs start from just $1 a day which is on par or less than most vitamins sold at Coles/Woolies.

 Before I used Vitable, I already knew I was iron deficient as my Dr had recommended I take an oral tablet daily. I decided to do the Vitable quiz anyway out of curiosity - and the results were exactly right! I’ve included my results here for you to see! 

I think that if you were already thinking about whether you are vitamin-deficient, or if you’re simply curious, take the Vitable quiz today and find out for yourself.

I REALLY want to film a Star Trek parody where the caption is yelling really tropey star trekkie things at the engineer who in turn just answers with real and truthful responses about mechanics. Like

Captain: how long will it take to get the warp engines back online??

Engineer: at least 2 hours

Captain: *dramatically* you've got 45 minutes

Engineer: well, okay, so it's not going to happen then, because it takes at least 2 hours

[keepcalmandcarriefischer]

Engineer: the shield generator is offline!

Captain: Divert power from life support!

Engineer: .... why? It's broken. Putting more power in it isn't going to make it less broken. And why life support? You want us to die faster or something?

[keepcalmandcarriefischer]

Engineer: the warp engines are offline and it is beyond our ability to repair. All we have are impulse engines now.

Captain: how long will it take to get to the nearest federation star base on impulse alone?

Engineer: 73 years.

Captain: what the fu

Engineer: Space is BIG captain! Why do I need to tell you that??

[kumabearsweetheart-deactivated2]

Engineer: We can’t do it, Captain! We do not have the power! Captain: We’ll harness the power of the local sun and divert it into the engine! Engineer:... Captain:...

Engineer:... Captain:... Engineer: That’s... Captain: Look, can you figure something out and just tell me that’s what you did? I just really need a win right now. Please? Engineer: I’ll try, Captain.

[keepcalmandcarriefischer]

Doctor: the captain was seriously injured... I don't know if he will make it...

Engineer: *mockingly* hAvE yOu tRiEd DiVeRtiNg pOwEr fRoM LifE SuPpOrT???

if i were a zookeeper my intrusive thoughts would be wild

[lesbianrustcohle]

brain: slap that penguin. right across his little blubbery tummy. it’ll jiggle.

me: no??? that’s mean???

brain: polar bear, then

me: no

[lesbianrustcohle]

brain: the lions just got fed raw meat

me: yes?

brain: steal it and eat it in front of them

me: …

[lesbianrustcohle]

rowan i want you to know that this is the best possible reply i could have received

[pro-survivors]

I work with animals and this is true for me. No, I cannot eat sea stars out the touch tank no matter HOW good you think the cronch will be, brain. 

[budgiekazoo]

sometimes you wonder what was going through the head of the first human to eat something really weird and then you see this post and stop wondering

[harinezumiko]

This 100% was me at the zoo. Don’t touch Melon, he’s mean. Okay, but I have to touch Bob to make him get his stupid emu head out of my shirt, so what if I also touch Melon until he likes it? Sephiroth is angery because he has one wing and sometimes attacks people? I want to pet him also. Also he won’t get off the rock I have to clean anyway, surely a little pets on the good side will be fine. Martha and Stewart are assholes that tag-team while the pond is filling? I bet I could CUDDLE THEM. The female deer will excitedly nuzzle you in the stomach for feeding them. This is fine, because they don’t have antlers. The male deer is locked up while we’re putting out food because he will gouge you to death with his little nubby asymmetrical horns, because he thinks the females are doing it. The entire monkey enclosure will eat your fingers for a single fruit loop. They also have the smallest arms and can reach through holes they’ve made in the tarp on the gate to their enclosure. Do not hold hands with the monkeys. (2nd gen old man monkey will also pee on the keepers that don’t give him fruit loops. He is a jerk.) The rehabilitated bear that still sits like she’s on a couch because she did that when she was living in a crack house? Yes, she looks chill. Yes, she looks The Softest. No, do not pet her back through the fence. No, do not go into the corridor and try to offer treats for pets. Big Mac does not know he will break your ribs, but YOU know he will break your ribs. Do not enter Big Mac’s enclosure no matter how much he chuffs and displays his belly and rubs on the cage and looks sad. Yes, he genuinely wants pets. Yes, Pinkie is deliberately getting pets where he can see it as a sign of dominance even though she’s a housecat and he could eat her in approximately one bite. The turtle is mean. Period. He is an old man and he does not like you. He does not like the parrot getting fries and he does not like that he is in a kiddie pool to warm up because his enclosure lost power, and he does not like you behind him preparing food for the owls and raptors. Petting him will not help this. He will rock back and forth and mean mug you forever because he is a grumpy old man. All of the rabbits need more handling on principle. They don’t know you and they are very distressed that you’re taking their poop away. They can learn, a little, kind of. The guinea pig is insane and will not learn. Do not pet the guinea pig.

[lesbianrustcohle]

this post is gathering some highly blessed zoo stories i love it! thank you

[blueelectricangels]

brain: baaaaby bunny. me: yup. brain: baby bunny goes in pocket me: nooo it doesn’t.

reblogging for my zookeeper friends

[firefox-official]

god i fuckin love airports. who came up with that??? “yeah, planes land here and take off. what if we also made it a mall, and then removed everyone’s sense of time and space when they came inside?” it could be 8:33 in the morning in a time zone i have never experienced but it’s always Airport Time

[firefox-official]

the norms there are so bizarre. who cares. wear your bugs bunny sweats over a button down. who gives a shit? nobody’s going to yell at you for chugging four sprites. you just do that. that’s the void talking

[firefox-official]

me: “i’d like a toothpick please.”

god, probably: “great! that’ll be 18 dollars.”

me: “sounds about right. here’s my entire wallet”

Lately I’ve been getting most of my pep talks from Mister Rogers.

[mintypineapple]

Great. Now I’m disappointing Mr. Rogers.

[maculategiraffe]

Mr. Rogers is not disappointed in you.  He’s proud of you for listening and thinking about what he said, and he hopes it plants a seed where sometimes maybe you notice yourself making an unhealthy choice and recognize it, because that’s the first step towards growth towards your best and healthiest self, which is a journey and a process, not an ideal state of which you are falling short.

Mr. Rogers loves you for just your being you.

hello police this post made me cry

[salty-inc]

Gonna tell y’all what I can hear now that I got my hearing aids

[salty-inc]

Birds! They chirp and it’s so beautiful.

[salty-inc]

Far away cow moos

[salty-inc]

My friend has this is his back yard and to say I cried is an understatement.

[salty-inc]

My best friends singing voice

[salty-inc]

Chickens: *chicken noise*

Me, sobbing:

[salty-inc]

The filter for my fish tank! Bubble bubble bubble

[salty-inc]

I sit in the bass section in band. Today I could clearly hear the flutes up at the front! They’re not great, but I can finally hear them!

[salty-inc]

The sound of walking in sand.

Soft but kinda crunchy? Very nice sound 10/10

[salty-inc]

Me playing guitar for the first time. Took the hearing aids out. Not a very good sound… yet

[salty-inc]

Tree leaves in the wind. I got a little spooked at first because it’s 1 am and I’m alone in the park but it’s a real good sound.

[salty-inc]

Bees

Let me say, it was really fucking terrifying walking past the flowering tree in my backyard and hearing zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz coming from it.

“sunlight” by Hozier

I sat in my car alone while listening to it. I knew it would be special but wow, that was a religious experience.

[salty-inc]

Their hooves make sounds in the grass but they are completely silent. Beautiful creatures. Beautiful sound

[salty-inc]

Pine needles and pine cones make crunchy sounds!!! Oh my! Very nice

[salty-inc]

Colored pencils make a real nice scratch noise when I’m drawing. I didn’t know they did that

[marsupials-of-mars]

I always just feel so nice reading this, i take so much stuff for granted

[gothicprep]

i wonder if my pets have like a proper language and when i try to speak back to them im just speaking jargon

like for example my cat always speaks to me when I come home and i meow back to her and she’ll meow again & even though i don’t think twice about it to her it’s probably a situation where it’s like

her, meowing: “im glad you’re home”

me, meowing back: “tax benefits”

her, meowing: “why do u always do this”

[commanderflowers]

me

[theplushfrog]

cats actually have a human-specific language. cats don’t often meow at each other and seem to use subvocal communications that humans can’t hear to chat cat-to-cat. however, cats seem to use what humans would call “shout-until-you’re-understood” to speak to humans. so basically, it’s more like:

“I’M GLAD YOU’RE HOME!”

“tax benefits”

“NO, I’M GLAD YOU ARE HOME”

“waffle iron”

“IT’S OKAY. I LOVE YOU TOO, MY DUMB HUMAN”

[defilerwyrm]

The domestic house cat’s wild ancestors have a much harsher voice, too. The going theory is that early cats mimicked human infants which tripped humans’ nurturing instincts, and then selective breeding did the rest.

We make a big deal over how dogs have developed the ability to understand human expressions and tones (and let’s be fair, that is in fact awesome), but cats are possibly the only species that has changed their vocal language to try to communicate with us.

[imayjustbejamesmoriarty]

what I love about this post (apart from cats because cats are ADORABLE) is the assumption that cats have words for tax benefits.

Swedish Chef was on Masterchef Junior this week and he has human hands and it makes me really uncomfortable. 

[nihilistwife]

when the texture packs don’t all load together

[czechs-and-holdings-deactivated]

The Swedish Chef has human hands in every video he’s in? 

That’s part of the joke. 

[takethistoyourstardust]

He had human hands on The Muppet Show.

[labete-du-gevaudan]

I was a Bear in the Big Blue house kid. I never watched the Muppets. A puppet with people hands is freaky to me. I just want my bear and his big blue house.

[apathetic-revenant]

can confirm, the Swedish Chef (almost) always has human hands. don’t know why. he’s an anomaly that way. 

fun additional bit of trivia: most Live-hand Muppets (that is, ones that have articulated glove hands instead of the hands being moved by rods) are performed with the primary puppeteer doing the head and the left hand while a secondary puppeteer, usually a less experienced one, performs the right hand, a task typically known as ‘right-handing’. (the puppeteers use their dominant hands for the head, so for most of them their remaining hand will be the left. I don’t know if they reverse the process and have people left-handing for left-handed puppeteers.) looks like this:

the Swedish Chef is one of the exceptions to that rule, though, because his skits required a lot more complicated hand movement that needed better coordination, so with him one person would work the head and one would do both hands; they also did that for things a character playing the piano. that added complexity might be why he doesn’t have glove hands, plus the fact that he already looks a lot more human than most Muppets anyway. but I don’t really know.

…that was…probably more information than you wanted. sorry. 

[labete-du-gevaudan]

I JUST LEARNED SO MUCH ABOUT PUPPETS. Thank you.

[spiroandthelacktones]

Also fun fact when they put an older swedish chef puppet into the Jim Henson museum exhibit he didn’t have any hands cause he was a live hand puppet, so the museum called up Frank oz and had him actually make casts of his hands that they used to make display hands for it

[evocatiio]

I’m not apologising for what’s happened, I’m regretting what’s to come.
