here's something stupid: the catcatfish
some quick facts:
they're nocturnal and tend to roam around while awake.
they have keen senses of smell and hearing, but terrible eyesight. despite this, they also have a tapetum lucidum, making their pupils "glow" in the dark.
their fur is short, dense, and oily to waterproof them.
they prefer a diet of mostly meat and are attracted to strong-smelling food like fish, cheese, and anything fermented.
the elongated dewclaw on each front paw is sharp, flexible, and nonretractable. it injects a venom that causes respiratory failure and cardiac arrest in prey and, in extreme doses, humans. veterenarians typically remove the dewclaw venom glands during the neuter/spay procedure.
they grow to an average of 1m and 23kg (3ft and 50lb) but can reach up to double that length and triple the weight!

You ever think about how unified humanity is by just everyday experiences? Tudor peasants had hangnails, nobles in the Qin dynasty had favorite foods, workers in the 1700s liked seeing flowers growing in pavement cracks, a cook in medieval Iran teared up cutting onions, a mom in 1300 told her son not to get grass stains on his clothes, some girl in the past loved staying up late to see the sun rise.

calling all artists + bulbasaur lovers!!!
hiya, trainers o/
did you know we're currently collabing with Poke Earth Collabs to celebrate bulbapedia's 20th anniversary next month!? we need YOUR help, though, because it is a community collaboration!!
we're looking to get submissions of bulbasaur art creations of all kinds -- traditional or digital art, clay, fabric, etcetc -- for us to feature in a fun community art piece! artists of all styles and types are welcomed! (except for ai art. ai art is lame and not art and bulbasaur will not be your friend if you submit ai art)
in terms of more important info, you can refer to this sheet, but the submission end date is february 13, 2025! you can submit / send finished pieces to this tumblr account, or to @pokeearthcollab on twitter or @pokeearthcollab.bsky.social on bluesky! we will be crediting you no matter where you send your submission, of course! (so if you submit by email ([email protected]) please let us know what socials you'd like to be credited on!)
hope to see some familiar faces in our list, trainers o/ ! :) please share if you'd like, as this is a very important anniversary and we'd love to have the wider pokemon community participate! thanks ~

let’s be real the best tumblr has EVER looked was the short span of time where you could slap code into posts and we had classics like these
tumblr has never been closer to the core aesthetic and sense of humor of its userbase

A family of cheetahs sleep with the forest guard every night. When the Forest Dept. heard about it, they decided to check the veracity of the claim by installing a CCTV camera. This is what the camera recorded! Just amazing.
