Uhm what is that it’s huge?
Issa sea tortoise, like the ones that can live to around 500 years old. They’re capable of getting quite large from what I gather.

FRIDA KAHLO ‘Heroine of Pain’
I cried ill be honest. I didn’t really know about Frida so I had a look to all of her art and life, and I feel very much for her now. Also her relationship with Diego speaks so much to me, I’m surprised to see someone describe it so perfectly.
for some reason i ended making some steven universe evangelion crossover AU, lars looks way too cool, so proud of him
also making the gems the angels, amy, peridot and garnet here
This would be some kind of messed up crazy stuff and I’d watch every second of it
Ever wonder how big wolves are and why running from them is a really bad idea?
This had me so fucked up the first time I worked at the zoo. Because honestly they just look like big German-Huskies when they’re not wild. They look like big puppies. And then… they get close to you… And it’s suddenly kinda fucking terrifying. Like “oh this is the animal that used to scare people shitless.” “This is the animal that used to run through nightmares and poems so much.” And you suddenly fucking get it. As cool as these animals are far away, as important as the animals are in their natural environment, as much as we need them to survive… they’re still pretty fucking terrifying
can you believe these things became our friends
And then people domesticated them and now sleep with them in their beds.
We’re not a species meant to last
I’d actually argue the opposite!
We took these super efficient killing machines and befriended them and now they love and protect us as much as we (ideally) love and protect them
Cats basically domesticated themselves so that they could share in our food, medical care, and affection
In urban spaces, prey species know that there’s a higher likelihood that humans will help you if you’re stuck or injured than them killing or maiming you
It’s just, over time we see trends of our species overcoming environmental pressures that would and do lead to extinction in other species by sharing and forming close bonds with other sentient organisms and just kinda… aggressively community-bonding our way out of it?
For a long time there’s been this pervading idea that we, as a species, are just innately violent and terrible and “sinful” and it’s been that violence that let us survive (see the hunting hypothesis of human evolution). But that’s not what we see
We are, at our core, a species that looks into the face of something other, and thinks “I wonder if they want to be friends?” so long as the individual isn’t actively trying to kill us. Sure, tons of people do awful things every day, but for every terrible act or thought on this Earth, there are a dozen acts of kindness that people do casually for complete strangers
So yeah. We looked at these massive fluffy monsters with the sharp claws and crushing jaws rooting in our garbage just beyond the campfire and thought, the way no other species before or after us has done to the same extent; “They look friend-shaped!”
And they were. And that is how we got to be the dominant species on this planet
“They look friend-shaped!”
i hope the world doesn’t turn into mad max bc I can’t drive
“hi this is your uber driver here i’m parked in front of immortan joe’s shrine”
Oh shit. No.
Shit.
Thank you
Just gonna reblog this out of gratitude because I actually did forget…
Fffffffff let me get right on that.
and then reblog for the next forgetful son of a bitch
I’m so great full for everyone that is reblogging this. I totally forgot to take mine
Me: *sees post on tumblr* Shouts into the back of the house* Hey, mom, you remember to take your pills?
Mom, faintly after a minute: dammit.
(So it’s not just helpful for the person seeing it, lol)
I actually forgot to take mine.. thank you, Tumblr
Needed this, Thank you
Hoping this helps somebody that does take any medication. Also, I wanted to say that it’s okay if anyone does. As you can see, many others take medication as well, so anyone else that sees this must understand that you are not alone. I hope this reminds and/or encourages somebody out there.
