btw it's so fucking stupid you can be anxious physically in your body even after you've decided mentally you don't care. I'm supposed to be in charge here

i love writing out numbers and then putting them in parentheses like "one (1)" even when i dont need to i think its funny

ADHD affects how I experience time, not how I experience attachment. I love you. I miss you. I just don't realize how long it’s been since I last said that, let alone messaged.

I understand that most normal functioning brains need regular engagement to maintain a bond. Absence doesn’t diminish my affection. My silence isn’t neglect or disinterest. It’s time blindness and object impermanence. The contact gap is purely neurological, not emotional. Thank you for being patient with my inconsistency and holding a seat in your heart for me.

given the current climate this pride especially i feel i must mention that i love my trans friends, i stand with trans people in the fight against transphobic legislation and those who would enforce it, and this blog is not a good place for you to be if you do not vibe with that

have you guys heard about the greenland shark. some crazy shit happening there.

venndaai

they are sexually mature at ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY YEARS OLD.

their (live!) young gestate for. wait for it. eight to eighteen (??) YEARS. can have up to 10 at a time. good grief.

longest lifespan of any vertebrate, up to five hundred years

toxic flesh

has giant eyes but is usually blind because of a weird little crustacean that's evolved to live on and eat their eyes. this doesn't seem to bother them much.

lives in deep cold water and has the lowest swim speed and tail-beat frequency for its size across all fish species. just generally lives life in extreme slow motion

largest genome of any shark

eats everything including moose and polar bears

ma'am you are delightfully strange and I'm privileged to share a planet with you

this post prompted me to refresh my memory on Greenland Shark Facts and this detail about how they feed goes so hard

just vacuuming up their unsuspecting prey. whole !

Good news good news good news! Recent research suggests the eye parasites do NOT blind them!

Dorota Skowronska-Krawczyk sits in her office, eyes fixed on the computer monitor in front of her. "You see it move its eye," says the UC Ir

I <3 you a normal amount Greenland sharks

every spellcheck algorithm when you type a non-english name: uh oh! that's a typo! let me go ahead and fix that for you

molsno

does anyone else remember when google's facial recognition algorithm tagged a photo of black people as gorillas? racism is so often built into the technology we use every day and it's absolutely disgusting. and it doesn't have to be this way! it would be so easily avoidable! but the tech industry doesn't care. the tools built by the tech industry reflect all of the biases of the people who develop them, and they are most often built by people who don't consider non-white people with non-english names important enough to spend any additional development time to account for them

molsno

and y'know on top of that, these decisions reflect US cultural hegemony! just earlier, I tried implementing spellchecking in my program, and no matter what I tried, I could not get it to stop flagging the vast majority of non-english names as "errors". here's the readme for the library I tried to use:

it makes such a big deal about how inclusive they want this list to be. so, where did they get the majority of these names?

US census data

the tech industry by and large does not consider anyone living outside of the united states to be people. I even checked, and the difference between the final list and the file us-census.txt is only a few hundred names. and sure, this is just one spelling library, but it's one with over a million weekly downloads on npm and over 27,000 dependents on github. I guarantee that several of the websites and programs you use every day depend on this library for spellchecking, and whoever wrote this library decided that a list of names of people living in the united states is "good enough". it's maddening!
