Working out the brain by going on a Wikipedia deep dive.

Anyway I would like to introduce you all to the Colugo!

There are two species of these guys, and they’re colloquially known as flying lemurs (despite being gliding mammals, and also not lemurs).

The two species, The Sunda Flying Lemur (The image above), and the Philippine Flying Lemur (the image below) , are the only members of their Family (Cynocephalidae) as well as their Order (Dermoptera).

Sunda Colugos are found throughout Southeast Asia, in Malaysia, Sabah, Singapore, Indonesia, Bali, and many adjacent islands. The Philippine colugo on the other hand, is only found in the Philippines.

The closest mammals related to them are Primates, and colugos are the sister group of the ANCESTORS of Primates. These ancestors broke off into Plesiadapiformes (the extinct sister group of primates), and modern primates. So in untechnical terms, colugos are the aunt group of us primates!

Despite being placental mammals (mammals with nipples that aren’t marsupials), Colugos reproduce very similar to marsupials! They give birth to their young at a very early stage in development, then fold their long webbed tail into a pseudo pouch to Store their young in. These babies become mature at around 2 to 3 years old.

Colugos are arboreal, meaning they live in the trees, and their blanket like appearance is due to the webs of skin between their limbs and tail, which allows them to glide from tree to tree. Despite their fuzzy top side, their underbellies are completely hairless, which makes them appear like a naked man kite when gliding.

Colugos were classified as Vulnerable in 1996, but were reclassified as least concern in 2008. As tree living species, they are particularly vulnerable to deforestation, and their presence is important as they make up 90% of the diet of the endangered Philippine eagle.

Lastly. Baby colugo is his own hammock.

The last time I felt this in tune with my actual species I was riding Galactica.

Besties, this feels so good you don't even know.

I realised I can use Warhammer technical paints to paint my nails.

Y'all best be prepared for when these babies dry

Weapon design commission for @kingxxlink for Eutheria! Highkey this was hella fun to do, I'm always happy to design fan stuff for some of my favorite media <3

[a-dinosaur-a-day]

I know you hate mammal bias. So do I.

But I have a special interest in rabbits.

Could you give me the true classification details (like you did with the "birds are aves" ask) for European rabbit?

Or show me where to look?

Once again, I wouldn't ask, it's just rabbits are my world.

Thanks

Also I used to keep and breed budgies, had two Fischer's lovebirds too (separately as not a pair). Parrots are great!!!!

Hey, mammal bias just means focusing on or highlighting mammals disproportionately - acting like they're all of life, the majority of life, or the most important life forms, etc. Enjoying mammals is a totally normal and expected thing to do, and is totally fine. I personally love cetaceans, marsupials, and bats! A lot! (never going to get over the layers of irony in the Flying Poll Fiasco)

metas

zooa. i went on a mild aquarium theme [outdoor exhibites]

[ID: metazooa, the cladistic puzzle tree, guessed i 8. Threia spliting diprotodontia with kangaroo and possum. The other path is Eutheria with manatee, laurasiatheria with beluga and four guesses i mustelidae. Weasel, badger, sea otter and wolverine. END]

[obligatory short cnd logan joke] anyway [gets the marine land beluga jingle stuck in my head]

floora. flora. you piece of shit

[ID: Metazooa/flora, the plant cladistic puzzle tree, guessed in 20. One wrong guess in magnoliopsida, 7 guesses on the wrong brach under pentapetalae. 5 guesses in various wrong petrosaviidae groups, and 8 guesses in poaceae. Final answer spelt. END]

YOU HAVE TO UNDERSTAND. i guessed wheat like. 6-8 ones in..... U_U. looking thru my cereal cabinate....... asking questions aloud. WHATS secretly a wheat that i dont know about. well and then i just went through every wiki link on the WHEAT PAGE...

anyway

COMBINE HAVESTER

[ID: Wiki screencap of image with caption "Combine harvester cuts the wheat stems, threshes the wheat, crushes the chaff and blows it across the field, and loads the grain onto a tractor trailer." END ID]

It's uncommon OC ask time!!

Let's do 40 for Eutheria, and F for Link!! >:3c ooo and for good measure....31 for Gage!

OOOO THESE ARE GOOD ONES I'M EXCITED

40: How sensitive are they to their own flaws?

Eutheria is incredibly sensitive to and about her flaws. She's headstrong and too proud, all while harboring a secret fear that she, too, will fall to the blight that has spread throughout Yharnam. She generally struggles to work with others, as well, and being aware of that helps push her forward to make a connection with the Vileblood Hunter, Alfred, in the hopes of seeking an end to the endless night.

===

31: Who are they the most glad to have met?

See, for Gage, you'd think the answer would be his partner Dean, but you would be wrong. He's the most glad he met Lyn Ashford (who belongs to @resonantcrimson). Meeting Lyn changed his life in ways he wasn't expecting and through Lyn's love for her brother, Christian, Gage learned that even Hunters can have real, actual families. Sometimes they're blood, sometimes they're not, but family is family.

===

F: What do you feel when you think of your OC (pride, excitement, frustration, etc)?

Interestingly enough, this doesn't change much based on which OC I think of! Overall, I feel a lot of joy and excitement when it comes to my OCs, but for some of the most well-developed ones, I feel a strong sense of pride in my writing and my ability to keep going,e ven when it's hard.

I don't often talk about it, but there was a period of 6-7 years where I just didn't create. I didn't draw, do pixel art, or write, and it was one of the saddest parts of my life because there really was just no joy left to me. Coming out of that and seeing the things I've created in the time since is absolutely a point of pride for me, because I think I've made some amazing work that stands on its own, often even if you don't know the source material (in the case of fanworks).

When it comes to what I create, I definitely feel I deserve every ounce of pride that it gives me. I went through a lot to get this far and I'm determined to see what comes next. <3

I feel sorry for marsupials; the placental mammals like us get to be Eutheria (good beasts), while they’re apparently stuck being Metatheria (mid beasts).

“euthereal” (a combination of the words “ethereal” and “euphoria”)

a short piece about a soul incarnating for the first time, and their soul mentor/spirit guide teaching them one final message before they spend the next few years learning what it’s like to be human, and learning for themselves.

“you may go now. you know everything you need to know. you must lead your own life now,”

they stroked their finger through my thick, frizzy hair, and looked at me with their eyes that mirrored century-old tree trunks that had stories to tell but no one to share them with. their hair had tints of grey sprouting out the roots that clearly weren’t there when i first met them.

“and one more thing,”

they paused.

“life is ephemeral. love is eternal. make a wrong a right when you can, and forgive some but not all. don’t let your flesh become your enemy nor prison, but, rather treat it as a learning experience, and a strict mentor. because there are some things i cannot teach you. it might be a while until you see me again, but, know i’ll always be with you in spirit and in soul,”

without another word, they began to step away from the comfort of the forest clearing, into what was supposedly the eutheria. and with every step they took, the woodland around me began to distort and fall, as if everything that just happened was all a long play. or a final rehearsal. then, as the background around me began to crash, and a room with bright lights, and a woman holding me began to gradient in, i realised that now it was time for the real performance.

[reddest-x]

For the record, this really isn't too hard because they give you information on the taxonomic groups!! You don't have to know what "afrotheria" or "eutheria" are to play, because it will tell you! There's also a plant version :)

guys i just found out about this site that does a daily guessing game, it’s phylogenetic wordle- so fun!!!

What is the difference between a dog and a canine? Do you know?

The difference between dogs and dogs is that dogs belong to the Canidae family, and dogs are often also called dogs. Dogs are also the most popular breed of pets kept by humans. Dogs (Latin Canislupusfamiliaris) belong to the phylum Chordata, subphylum Vertebrates, class Mammalia, subclass Eutheria, order Carnivora, suborder Schizopoda, and canidae. Also known as “dog” in Chinese, dogs are…

[bbabysunshine]

They call me eutheria the way i have that beast in me. Or the way I like that beast in me if you know what i mean 😏

[yaldabaothadeez]

Yeah, invasive species are a problem. It's really a shame how all those creatures suck ass, and just can't compete with cats, bunnies, rats, pigs and humans, the animals that are Empirically The Best.

*shaking my head and sighing sadly* Eutheria sweep...

is daisy technically a furry

or just a therian. well technically every human is a therian because we belong to the group theria, which includes placental mammals and marsupials. placental mammals belong to the subgroup eutheria which is the true therians. all humans are therians.

can’t believe it took me this long to draw the all-seeing eldritch horror twink and his murderous lesbian werewolf best friend

Chargers, also known as batteries, are an essential part of our daily lives. From powering our smartphones and laptops to running our cars, batteries play a vital role in keeping our modern society functional. But have you ever wondered why chargers are considered Eutherian for sewers?

To understand this, we first need to understand what Eutherian means. Eutheria is a subclass of mammals that are characterized by the presence of a placenta and advanced development of their offspring before birth. This means that the babies of Eutherian mammals, including humans, are nourished inside the mother's womb until they reach an advanced stage of development and are ready to be born.

So, how does this relate to chargers and sewers? Well, the answer lies in the production and disposal of these essential devices. Batteries are mainly made up of heavy metals like lead, cadmium, and nickel. These metals are extracted from the ground and processed in industrial factories, often with toxic chemicals that can harm the environment.

In the past, these batteries were simply disposed of in landfills, where they would eventually leak and contaminate the surrounding soil and water. This caused significant harm to the ecosystems, making it difficult for plants and animals to thrive.

But with the rise of Eutherian mammals, such as humans, we have become more aware of our impact on the environment. We have developed more advanced technologies to safely dispose of batteries and minimize their harmful effects. Sewers, which act as a network of underground tunnels for waste disposal, play a crucial role in this process.

Sewers have advanced filtration systems that can remove harmful substances from the wastewater before it is released into the environment. Batteries, along with other hazardous materials, are directed to specialized facilities where they can be properly recycled and disposed of.

Moreover, the development of Eutherian mammals has also led to the invention of rechargeable batteries. These batteries can be used multiple times, reducing the need for constant production and disposal. This not only reduces the burden on the environment but also makes chargers more sustainable.

In conclusion, chargers, or batteries, are considered Eutherian for sewers because their production and disposal have a significant impact on the environment. The advanced development of Eutherian mammals, like humans, has led to the development of better technologies for safely disposing of batteries and reducing their harmful effects. As we continue to evolve and improve our ways of living, it is crucial to consider the impact it has on the environment and strive towards more sustainable practices.
