Roccella nigerrima
Why are there so few pictures of this lichen on the internet? Well maybe because it is only found on the Galapagos Islands, and when people go to the Galapagos, they're not usually there to take pictures of the lichens, unfortunately. But like, how could you not want to take pictures of this beautiful little critter? This fruticose lichen has pale white-gray, terete, many-branched thallus, and grows on costal rocks and cliffs. It produces ochre to pale brown soredia along the lower branches, and has only been found with apothecia on one occasion. There are 2 very similar Roccella species native to South America, but they both have a C+ reaction whereas R. nigerrima here has a C- reaction. So you know, if you are ever traveling in the Galapagos and happen to have some bleach on you for chemical testing of lichens and are able to ID this little guy, definitely snap some pictures! For me, for yourself, and for the lichenology community at large.

i just dont think the transition from being around someone you raised since he was 4 and having someone to come home to after a solo adventure or a few weeks of exploration to that person being gone for an indeterminate amount of time and always returning to an empty house wouldn't be very smooth-
#“tails...its weird without you following me”#said sonic because tails wasn't with him in frontiers#and that was only one adventure! and he hadnt even gone anywhere!#he was still on the islands!#how tf is this guy gonna cope when tails isnt around at all for however long hes gone for??#sonic the hedgehog#miles tails prower#the brothers ever#unbreakable bond#sonic frontiers

My auntie keeps Golden Guernsey goats on our island, like many of our local unique breeds of livestock they nearly went extinct in the starving during ww2 occupation surviving by only one smuggled flock. They're super friendly and energetic and their colouration might be of interest :eyes:
Oh OH these are very pretty
#it's extremely cool and admirable that your aunt is helping to preserve a rare heritage breed of livestock#these goats are gorgeous#wonderful caramel colors#they look highly pettable#answered#anonymous#also this is beside the point but a few years back I was really interested in the history and cultures of the Channel Islands Isle of Man#and the archipelagos of Scotland#I remember thinking that I've never interacted with anyone who lives in any of those places at least to my knowledge#and my chances of coming across someone organically are fairly low so I probably never will#maybe it's weird to say but I just think it's terribly neat that there's at least one Channel Islander in existence who has seen my art

stannis baratheon single after the divorce, wife takes everything in the divorce (good for her, she's gonna spend it on her new younger gf and her new religious mlm), now spending all his time at work. living in his friend davos' spare room. davos angrily goes "shireen needs a father!!!" wake up call. starts watching youtube tutorials on crochet and minecraft and baking and makeup to bond with his daughter. shireen mentions chappell roan and davos finds stannis stone cold silent listening to GOOD LUCK BABE on shitty wire headphones. takes time off to make loom band bracelets with shireen at the park. wears her homemade beanies ("daddy your bald head will get cold") when he picks her up from school.
#selyse is taking a well earned vacation. takes shireen with her to the bahamas or i guess maybe the summer islands is the equiv#and shireen is a bit weirded out by the cult. makes tiktoks about it and causes the domino effect of melisandre getting audited#stannis baratheon#modern au#shireen baratheon

Great Duck Island Light, Frenchboro, Maine. Aptly named, Great Duck Island is estimated to support 20% percent of Maine's seabird population. Under the Maine Lights Program, the lighthouse and 12 surrounding acres are owned and manned by College of the Atlantic. The rest of the seabird-friendly island is owned by The Nature Conservancy in Maine

Honestly, I don't think people give qCellbit enough credit. As much as he can be blinded by his own self depreciation, he knows his husband.
And there is something deeply wrong with "Roier."
Props to cc!Roier for his acting, because as someone who's been watching the both of them for almost a year now, the way he plays Doied with qCellbit makes my stomach churn a little bit.
It's an almost perfect impression of qRoier, but it's wrong in the ways that matter. He's a little too careless. A little too surface level in his portrayal.
He feels like if someone watched Roier's pov and took his attitude at face value without bothering to consider any of the nuances underneath. Which is, I guess, what Doied actually did.
He hits Cellbit with a sword when he's under-geared just "for fun". He stands back in fights when Cellbit's calling out for help. He nonchalantly brings up Bobby in order to convince the eggs and Cellbit to leave. He tells Pepito that he's Pepito's only parent and that Pepito is only his son. The small details all add up together and the result is something immensely off.
It's VERY well acted, and it's the kind of difference that only someone who spent a long time with a character could pick up on, which is exactly why I think qCellbit seems to have caught on so quick.
#qsmp#soup speaks#like dude roier is fucking KILLING IT#he is selling this shit so hard#and to be clear:#i dont think qCellbit has fully picked up that Doied is a different person yet#but i do think he can tell that something is REALLY fucking wrong#he felt a lot more distant towards 'roier' today#and with the shit he's already seen on this island its not gonna be long before he realizes roier's been replaced#as a viewer every conversation they have feels so.... uncanny#and that is as an outside observer#i cannot IMAGINE how weird it must be for qcellbit

You know, not to quibble too much over Scooby-Doo on Zombie Island but the Voodoo Cat Witches backstory is very...odd. it just...glazes over some...rather obvious... uh....
Like, ok, your vague Cat god cult that happens to use voodoo dolls, whatever. Sure. (Where are yall *from*? You know, nevermind. Ill accept secret cat cults.)
But then they are like "and then some **spice traders** came and started a *pepper plantation* and we ate them all." But they all look like
And there sure are a lot of confederate zombies. But you know who we don't see at all? Like you know what population of people implied by the existence of both plantations and confederates isn't actually ever seen?
.....
And like, maybe it would be weirder if the movie about cursed voodoo werecats grappled with the legacy of slavery in Louisiana. But.....
#scooby doo on zombie island#scooby doo#overthinking it perhaps#and thats not even getting into the weird little play of Lina being Simones hired help#a weird little play that they have to have been keeping uo for MONTHS around fbi guy#or the confederate ghosts being the victims and thanking scooby at the end is...odd

panda panda circus circus
#Panda Circus#Daniel Mullins Games#Pony Island#<- Does that tag apply??? No idea.#Found a slightly quicker way to do this. Emphasis on slightly though it... doesn't work 100% of the way </3#The process was blocking out the sections with the lasso tool and then using the dithering brushes I have instead of just.#Doing it pixel-by-pixel. Then I added random black and white pixels everywhere for weirdness because it looked too uniform otherwise.#Anyway pro tip don't do this when you have a migraine. You will regret it. Quickly.#Hrokkall Art

hisoilllu beach vacation for @greedislandchallenge summer exchange! silly shenanigans at a sinfully expensive resort... I don't think I quite did the "sinfully expensive" part justice, but hey, they do have a pool to themselves (everyone else was afraid of their vibes ❤♦)
+ silly comic based on this:
#hunter x hunter#hxh#hisoillu#hisoka morow#illumi zoldyck#(sry the weird transparent image at the end is so the comic doesn't take up twice the height of the actual drawing haha)#greed island challenge#illumi in a big sunhat sipping a cocktail with a tiny umbrella and hisoka getting terrible tan lines are directly from the prompt btw!#there were already too many good ideas i added on very little haha‚ just drew the pictures 🎨
