Monocentropus balfouri, una de las pocas especies de tarántula que vive en comunidad 😨

«Se sabe que, según Chomsky y su escuela, bajo la extrema diversidad de las lenguas humanas, el análisis lingüístico en profundidad revela una “forma” común a todas ellas. Esta forma debe pues, según Chomsky, ser considerada como innata y característica de la especie. Esta concepción ha escandalizado a algunos filósofos y antropólogos que ven en ella un retorno a la metafísica cartesiana. A condición de aceptar el contenido biológico implícito, esta concepción no me choca en absoluto.»

For those who needed to hear it today

writing advice for characters with a missing eye: dear God does losing an eyes function fuck up your neck. Ever since mine crapped out I've been slowly and unconsciously shifting towards holding my head at an angle to put the good eye closer to the center. and human necks. are not meant to accommodate that sorta thing.

I understand that tall men are our POV characters, but surely being like a foot taller than everyone around them would have some occasional consequences

“…to me” is one of the most powerful disclaimers we have on here… is this character analysis accurate? debatable. but it’s real… to me.

So a lot of political scandals just dropped in the last 24 hours

-NC Governor Candidate Mark Robinson's online posts were found, including some VERY graphic descriptions (like seriously, do not read if you're not 18) of him cheating on his wife, calling himself a black Nazi, and expressing support for reinstituting slavery. His email address was also found on Ashley Madison

-Robert F Kennedy Jr was revealed to be cheating on his wife with a reporter (and that isn't even the weirdest thing since federal law enforcement opened an investigation into him allegedly cutting off the head of a whale and taking it home with him less than 24 hours ago)

-GOP Senate candidate who is the CEO of a bank has been found accepting millions of dollars from what seem to allegedly be Mexican drug cartels.

-Finally, probably the biggest bombshell, according to multiple eyewitness testimonies within sealed sworn affadavits, Congressman Matt Gaetz allegedly invited a 17-year-old girl to a drug-fueld sex party

And we haven't even hit October, folks. Again, these are all still breaking news stories, so things are subject to change, but oh man oh man.

When irl pisses me off, I rewatch the Honda Odyssey scene to relax

[twinliches]

a beautiful man with long black hair dressed in all white sat next to me on the train back from denmark. i complimented his outfit, and he asked me where the train was going. after i told him, he then pointed at my shirt which says 'catastrophe' and said "oh i know a lot about those." and laughed uproariously.

and then he asked me "do you know about norse mythology?" and i said yes a bit because i read the edda a decade ago, and he said "i met fenrir in denmark" and i said that's probably not good if fenrir is walking around. and he said "oh don't worry about it, vithar will take care of it" and i replied oh but that's ragnarøk, that's still pretty bad for us mortals is it not? and he grinned at me like i said something incredibly funny. and then he ignored me for the rest of the train ride?

there’s something sooo sickening about how dunmeshis whole energy is like sometimes something terrible and awful happens to you and it changes you forever and nothing can make you the person you were before but there’s still love and there’s still sharing a meal together and there’s still living

Conoce la iguana marina, la única especie de lagarto marino que existe en la Tierra.

«Fundamentalmente, veremos que el transhumanismo se divide en dos grandes campos: los que “simplemente” quieren mejorar la especie humana sin reunciar por ello a su humanidad, limitándose a reforzarla, y los que, como Kurzweil precisamente, abogan por la “tecnofabricación” de una “poshumanidad” para la creación de una nueva especie, híbrida en su caso con máquinas dotadas de capacidades físicas y de una inteligencia artificial superiores a las nuestras. En el primer caso, el transhumanismo se sitúa voluntariamente en la continuidad de un cierto humanismo “no naturalista” (veremos más adelante el sentido preciso de este concepto), un humanismo que, desde Pico della Mirandola a Condorcet, abogaba por una perfectibilidad infinita del ser humano. En el segundo, la ruptura con el humanismo en todas sus formas se consume y se asume al mismo tiempo.»

we go through this every hurricane season but the way people will find any excuse to point the finger at the victims of natural disasters and say cruel shit like "fuck around and find out" like it's not horrifying having to leave behind your home and all your belongings and potentially your pets with the full knowledge that there might not be anything to come back to after... ignoring that there are people that don't have a car or the money to evacuate, ignoring disabled people who have no way to get out, ignoring people that can't find places for their pets to shelter, ignoring people that have medical equipment that can't be moved or replaced, etc... and even if someone stays behind solely because they want to, they still don't deserve to suffer.

as someone who worked extensively in disaster response previously, it is not easy to "just" evacuate, and the relief that comes afterwards is intentionally difficult to obtain. and already the forces that be are trying to spin this narrative that the victims are at fault, to put the blame on them so that if (probably when) people are forced to resort to looting (because the aid never comes) everyone will nod and agree that they're all bad people and deserved it... rather than acknowledging the fact that there was no attempt to make the evacuation accessible and safe for everyone, no guarantee that aid will be waiting for them when they return to a home that has been swept away... no empathy for the fact that these people's entire lives are potentially destroyed with no safety net to catch them.

The diagram for the classic Origami Goat, with a twist to make its horns curve ! It's from this video by by Origami Word, but it seems to be a pretty old/intemporal design that a lot of people have made. I could not find a diagram online so I made one.

(If you make her in yellow/orangy-yellow, then decorate her with red ribbons, you can make your own origami gävlebocken ! )
