Uncharismatic Fact of the Day

You wouldn't think fish need to hold their breath, but that's exactly what hammerhead sharks do when they hunt! Scallopped hammerheads cruise near the surface, where the water is about 15-20°C (59-68°F), but they hunt in much deeper water where the average temperature is about 5–11°C (41-51°F). To conserve their body heat, hammerhead sharks close their gills-- effectively holding their breath for up to 7 minutes before they ascend back to warmer waters.

[ID: 3 flags with 7 horizontal stripes. The stripes from top to bottom are yellow, pastel yellow, pale yellow, pastel green, pale grey, pale brown, pastel brown. In the center of the second flag is a lemon shark, and in the center of the third flag is a yellow shark plushie.]

🦈🍋 XENOGENDER TIME! 🍋🦈

i made this xenogender called “lemonsharkgender,” primarily based on the species of shark, Lemon Shark.

🦈🍋 Lemonsharkgender 🍋🦈

This gender is connected to the shark species, Lemon Shark. i made this gender cause i was thinking about how cool Lemon Sharks are and then i was like “omg gender” and yeah. this gender is generally connected to lemons, the colour of Lemon Sharks and their silly faces. but it doesnt have to be those specific things, it can be whatever makes you feel connected to Lemon Sharks in a gender way! 💛

🦈🍋 alternate flags 🍋🦈

for people who like symbols on their flags!!

left is just a normal Lemon Shark on it, but the right is a yellow BLÅHAJ (i like to call it CITRONHAJ or GULHAJ) for people who’s gender connects specifically to yellow BLÅHAJs!

okay thats it, have a good day!

i saw your post about "smooth shark kent" and i just imagined flash trolling batman about superman's "super smooth skin he's so smooth you could make him slide around on dry steel" and bruce just rolls up clark's sleeve and starts filing his fingernails down on his arm while making unblinking eye contact with flash

(i forgot flash's real name can you tell lmaooo)

extremely correct for two reasons

bruce knows he shouldn't get in another stupid argument but refuses to let someone be incorrect around him so he just gets silently passive-aggressive

bruce and clark know/trust each other enough that bruce can just grab clark's arm and roll up his sleeve and file his nails on the guy mid-conversation

i like a really tactile superbat, what can i say... and with that in mind i think it becomes even better when one of them is some insane shark alien. the potential for physical comedy is unmatched

I have a confession to make.

I am awful at coming up with names, but didn't want to keep the name "Yuu" so I opted for the closest thing in my vicinity....which was my Blåhaj plush.

After a few weeks of playing I can't help but imagine interactions between the PC and the cast to just look like this:

Watching a compilation of the many really satisfying eating scenes from Primal and thinking about KCB and how Cybugs can eat ANYTHING... also thinking abt my hc that Turbo struggled with pica (the urge to eat non-edible things) and how him eventually making it to Sugar Rush where almost everything was made of FOOD helped to alleviate it. He then (understandably) built up a sugar dependency which stayed with him after being excised from SR. He hasn't gone right back to drinking motor oil like he used to but now he DOES put candy sprinkles on absolutely EVERYTHING. Nothing tastes right anymore without a truckload of sugar!!! :(

Cryptids & Creatures of Folklore Drawtober Day 12 — Timor Sea Ground Shark

In the Timor Sea near Australia there are reports of an unknown shark lurking along the ocean floor. It is said to attack people and is larger than a great white shark but looks and acts more like a member of the carpet shark family. Some believe it might be a misidentified or undiscovered species of giant wobbegong.

Cryptid of the Day: Ground Shark

Description: A massive shark was supposedly seen in 1941 in the Timor Sea, off of Australia’s northern coast. It was said to lurk on the bottom floor, and was much larger than a great white. Karl Shucker theorized that the monster was a Wobbegong, which could grow up to 13ft in length.

Uncharismatic Fact of the Day

Stop: it's hammer time! Great hammerhead shark time, that is! Great hammerheads are the largest species in the hammerhead shark group, which contains nine species total. These sharks are also great swimmers-- so great, that they can even swim on their sides! Doing so reduces drag, and therefore the amount of energy needed to move through the water.
