sometimes, I lay in bed thinking long and hard about how there’s no way in hell flowey would allow himself to be potted because of how that would restrict his mobility and freedom. and sometimes, sometimes my muse blesses me with a vision on how this problem would be solved

and sometimes toonboom doesn’t allow gif exports and my photoshop license is expired so i just post my bullshit animation as a video

hears the fucking horrible sound of the roots and pot scuttling and scraping across the hardwood floor in the middle of the night “oh don’t worry, that’s just flowey up to something terrible as usual”

#Now imagine him scuttling across your ceiling

Do you think it’s realistic for rats to be dog sized, if humans selectively bred them for size? Or would their skeleton not hold up to such a size? I know there are mini rats now, that are mouse size and have high energy like a baby for their entire life, but I’m not sure a rat enlarged to dog size would work well unless they had thicker bones or more muscle. (By dog sized I mean terrier sized, not like a greyhound or something big)

It’s certainly plausible, though I wouldn’t make any guesses about health concerns they may have.

The largest extant rat species on the planet right now can reach chihuahua size.

But extinct rat species were estimated to reach 6kg, which is definitely within the realm of ‘small terrier’.

I mean, a capybara is a rodent the size of a medium dog. If you were careful with your selective breeding and picked ones that were still healthy at the larger sizes, I see no reason why you couldn’t get to that big. 

(Which would be terrifying, by the way, since rats can gnaw through concrete)

Fun statistical fact: Cows are about 300 times more likely to kill you than coyotes.

Minor sidenote to statistical fact: If it was common for people to keep several hundred coyotes on their property and routinely chase them into a corral and handle them, this statistic would be different.

this is a great summary of ‘conditional probability’, a statistical property many people grapple with 

…I feel like this post just made me realize that both coconut trees and vending machines, items often quoted in wacky death statistics, are both things that people shake vigorously often.

People that get invested in fiction and examine fictional lore need to learn how to tell the difference between which lore is actually important to the series and which lore is an excuse for something.

If Dwarven women are capable of growing beards, but have cultural reasons not to, that is an excuse that they made not to give them beards.

If a female character can only wear skimpy clothing for some given reason, that is an excuse to sexualize her.

If an organization can only be populated men, that is often an excuse to not have to create female characters.

Its all made up. It isn’t a foundation of the universe that they can’t control. They wrote it to be like that.
