Reality continues to ruin my life...

Hello fellow tumblers! (tumblees?) This is just a blog where I post random stuff that amuses or interests me. There's probably not going to be much personal stuff on here, unless I really feel like ranting or something. Umm yeah, that's about it. I'm not really sure what other types of things generally go in the "Description" section...

The best day of your life is the one on which you decide your life is your own. No apologies or excuses. No one to lean on, rely on, or blame. The gift is yours. It is an amazing journey, and you alone are responsible for the quality of it. This is the day your life really begins.

Bioluminescence is the ability of living organisms to produce light. Many organisms including bacteria, fungi and animals can produce light. Deepsea fishes, which themselves are usually pale and opaque, often use bioluminescence to attract the scarce pray deep down.

I’ve recently written a post about more uses for bioluminescence by fungi, squids and even criminal investigators- find it here.
