I found another baby cicada 😭

Cicadas spend most of their life living underground as this little crawly thing, then, after up to 17 years depending on species, emerge and molt into winged cicadas to look for mates. These are the things going “zee, ZHEE” in trees in the summer, the ones that leave those empty shells lying around attached to things. You rarely see the larva still in its shell, they come out of the ground only to molt and do so as soon as they find a good spot to cling.

semen has as much vitamin c in it as an orange

absolutely horrifying

so what you’re telling me is that sucking dick can prevent scurvy

this really sheds a whole new light on pirate lifestyles

Nah, but you gotta get that vitamin C somewhere, so you just gotta have one gay, hot pirate who really likes oranges and has a dick, and the rest can be just plain gay and/or straight depending on genders.

These kinds of responses are my FAVORITE. Some examples to answers to this question I have heard:

1.

“Okay, and who’s the president?”

“Obama, no wait, shit *vehemently* fuck, I hate him… what’s his name…”

“It’s okay, you know who he is.”

2.

“Who’s the president?”

“*drunkenly angry and confused* ..uhhhhhhh…Orange… damn it what’s the fuck’s name….

“Yup, good enough.”

3.

“And who’s the president,”

“Not fuckin’ Obama!”

“I feel ya.”

4.

“Who’s the president- wait, nevermind you’re from Korea you said, right? So who’s-“

“Everybody knows that Trump-bitch.”

“Oh, well, alright then.”

5. (My personal favorite)

“Who’s the president?”

“Ew.”

“Good enough.”

My roommate is a neurologist and has to do this check all the time. Her all-time favorite so far has been “ay dios mio” during which the woman was vigorously crossing herself.

lol me too , lady

10 tricks you didn’t know you could do with your food.

By Blossom

The internet went from showing food recipe videos to alchemy in less than a decade. There’s going to be a quick video on how to make the philosopher’s stone from tomato sauce next week. 

1: Fake. Based on an Internet myth about making diamonds in a pressure cooker with charcoal and peanut butter. The pressure cooker thing won’t work either. You need enormous heat and pressure to make diamonds. 

2: Probably won’t work the way they show, but can work. If you very carefully hold a bottle of water still while dropping it below freezing, the ice crystals have nowhere to form. Agitating the water causes the ice to form all at once. Works with beer, too. Presumably works on most liquids. 

3: Possibly works? Seems reasonable, carbonation dislodging dirt and all that.

4: Warm water removes wax from anything. Wax melts when warm.

5: It’s not “genetic memory”. If honey had genetic memory it would be of plants, and it doesn’t, because it has no genes. Probably this works for the same reason that honeycomb is that shape in the first place, something about the six sides being the most efficient way to put up walls between a bunch of cells. No gaps between walls, minimum wall material used for maximum amount of space. This is, however, a viable way to tell if honey is real or not.

6: Seems reasonable and tasty. 

7: Yep, bananas do that.

8: Ew. I’d imagine the fats in the milk cling to everything but the water.

9: Tomato products are acidic. Sure, that’ll work, though maybe not that well. 

10: I’m… really skeptical, but I looked it up. Evidently, if the china ISN’T broken into multiple pieces, a protein in milk can, when heated, form a plastic that bonds into and repairs hairline cracks.Â
