hi i know “don’t believe everything you read on tumblr” has been said enough times at this point in the website’s tenure but i want to specifically say that there is a problem on tumblr and other social media where well-known science enthusiast accounts basically build trust as Knowing Things and then they can say anything they want about those things & everyone just believes them. this is especially a problem among ppl posting about ecology & animal science in my experience.

i’m absolutely throwing stones in my own glass house bc i almost never used to include sources on my wildlife science posts on my old blog but these days i try to make a point of it & i think others should too.

i don’t even think anyone is lying or making things up on purpose. i think they’ve just heard it from another source they consider reliable & they’re spreading incorrect or incomplete information without questioning it, to a much larger platform. about ten years ago I myself made a post repeating something a wildlife professor said to me, which turned out to be outdated info and mostly inaccurate. i trusted him as a source, but i should have looked at the data before sharing it to a wider audience. it was an important lesson!

basically idc how many times popular content creators on here or any other site/app have been correct about other things in other posts. you should still make a habit of asking yourself “what’s the source?” even when it’s a blog you like & trust. bc let me tell ya, i have seen some doozies lately

real life is the most detailed open world first person game I ever played. you can walk around and pick up objects and rotate them. the environmental storytelling is crazy and they even took the time to write out every word on things like labels and wall signage. it’s free to play but the micro transactions are kind of predatory

they removed posting from tumblr. now there's only scrolling down through the vast blank expanse. great

Ok people I have a questions that is plauging the masses (me)

*For context: whenever me and my cousins would gather, we would always inevitably have a fighting ring, where all the cousins of the same age would fight/wrestle each other, and the winner would fight the oldest cousin for bragging rights. It wasn't malicious either, it was like a bracket game, and occasionally the oldest cousin would let a little cousin win as an ego boost. Only occasionally tho*

I also need people to spread this so tags:

A software tester walks into a bar. Runs into a bar. Crawls into a bar. Dances into a bar. Flies into a bar. Jumps into a bar. And orders: a beer. 2 beers. O beers. 99999999 beers. a lizard in a beer glass. -1 beer. "qwertyuiop" beers. Testing complete. A real customer walks into the bar and turns on a screen reader. The bar goes up in flames.
