if you find bones in the forest, sit a bit and listen. they are old and have some good stories to tell. maybe they’ll teach you a spell or two, or explain where the water on our planet came from.

if you find bones by the ocean, run. don’t look back. run, faster, faster. the sea may love you but there are nights where she knows neither mercy nor science, and the bones warn you only once.

boi if you find bones call the police i hate this website so much

That’s what you do for HUMAN bones. Don’t go calling the police over deer bones or something.

I got in trouble for wearing a wig to work today because it wasn’t convincing enough and my boss said its fluffiness would be a distraction.

I took it off, but because I didn’t style my hair with gel this morning, it was full-on “Eraserhead meets Flock of Seagulls” and I received many judgmental stares.

I’m not sure if I’m happy or disappointed you didn’t include photos.

Yeah, the actual hair is a lot more interesting than the wig.

Indian kangaroo lizard (Otocryptis beddomii)

The Indian kangaroo lizard is a species of lizard in the family Agamidae. The species is endemic to southern India. From snout to vent O. beddomii is about 4.4 cm long with a tail of about 7.6 cm. The preferred habitat of O. beddomii
is moist leaf litter on the forest floor of both evergreen and
deciduous forests, but it may also climb onto low tree trunks and
shrubs. The common name, Indian kangaroo lizard, is derived from the lizard’s
habit of running on its hind legs with the body held upright.

This lizard is extremely aesthetically pleasing. Good design, particularly around the eyes.

i went diving a few days ago and encountered some good boys ™ that i knew you would appreciate. both of the green morays were like 6 feet long and very angery, but the spotted moray was more shy – @rrecollection

Look at those beautiful boys™ !! I’m so jealous! I would love to go diving!

I love the face on the spotted guy he’s like “HhhMmmMMmmmmm… 8/ ?”

Morays are awesome fish. They aren’t aggressive fish, not really, they won’t go at you unless you get close to them and threaten their space. If you watch ‘em from a distance, they don’t mind you. 

Anybody wanna hear about my already-here Cybertronian OC who I’ve recently learned is an almost-priest of his own accidental sorta-religion? 

Alternately, you wanna hear about Hijack, a newbie OC who’s spent most of the war being chucked at people so he can grab onto and control them?

Hi recently went fishing in my area and these where some of the fish I caught. All the fish returned to the pond safe. – @chi-zilla4470s

Those are some nice looking boys! I love the blue color on the first one!

The first looks like a longear sunfish. Great wet pets, they don’t get much larger than that and are very smart fish with nice colors. They adapt best to captivity if caught as tiny fry, though. The second, I’d say maybe bluegill. The catfish are probably bullheads.

In the future, consider not photographing fish while they’re hanging from the hook, it causes more distress and damage. Bringing a shallow container to put water in is also a good idea, you can hold fish sideways in the water to get pics while they can still breathe, and it reduces damage to their slime coat. Dry surfaces rub off the protective slime coat and increase the chance of parasites or diseases getting ahold. Kudos for catch-and-release, though!

AKA why the electoral college has gotta go. 

though looking at the comments the folks who live in the red part think this is why the electoral college has got to stay. because they like getting 3.5 votes per capita. 

Tyranny of the few is a pretty sweet deal if you belong to the few.

“Why should the coast’s vote count more?” BECAUSE THAT’S WHERE THE PEOPLE ARE AND THIS IS SUPPOSEDLY A DEMOCRACY.

A Map Of Where The People Live

That’s like walking into a room of 4 people and one of them has a vote equal to the other three combined.

“I’m not fitting in with the social dynamic of the group, I’m mad at them all, so even though one hand is burned enough that I can’t use it and there are leopards and lions in the area, I’m going to build my own shelter over here. In one night. But I’ll still eat their food.” 

Also, different person, 

“so I know this new guy just showed up with like 80 pounds of perfectly safe jerky that was cooked from a fresh kill, but I’m being Manly so I’m going to eat this disgusting meat that, not only did I get from the head of a corpse, I stole from the corpse of a LEOPARD KILL because I’m Manly and because in survival you have to eat whatever you can” 

and this is the guy who lost his last challenge, days from the end, because he ate poisonous fruit and nearly burned a hole in his stomach from the lactic acid.

Oh, what a shock. She got mad at the group and at not being able to do anything one-handed, AND throwing up after eating the corpse meat, so now she quit. 

Aaand the stubborn idiot is sick because he kept the corpse meat in a pot for nearly 2 days and kept eating it. 

“oh, I was sick last night because I’m eating so much meat. I’m loading up on as much food as I can. It’s a survival skill.” 

in the background, meanwhile, everyone is gagging from the smell of the rotting meat. 

STOP. EATING. THAT. 

He ate all of it and went back for the bone marrow, despite, er, stinking up the shelter area considerably with more than just the meat. I’m shocked he isn’t more sick. 

Boasting the entire way about his “survival technique” of eating rotting meat and maggots. Whining about how he “wasn’t appreciated” for sitting around eating rotting meat instead of helping with the shelter or hunting for actual fresh meat. 

He’s gonna get like 5 foodborne illnesses at once and puke his entire stomach out, isn’t he?
