“Nessuno sa davvero come fanno le persone ferite a trovarsi fra loro. Ma si trovano. Il dolore attrae il dolore, è una specie di magnetismo, un mutuo riconoscimento che crea un rifugio di comprensione. Con quella persona, non ti serve spiegare perché ti senti male, non ti tocca sentire consigli tipo “resisti e vai avanti”, non devi fingere di essere felice.”

— Don Winslow, “Città di sogni”.

LE RANE DEL BORNEO - THE BORNEO'S FROGS Alcune fasi di una illustrazione dove saltellano e si dondolano alcune delle rane tipiche dell'isola del Borneo.

La foresta pluviale del #Borneo ospita una gran varietà di specie diverse fra loro per taglia, aspetto, attitutidini, spesso sorprendenti e stravaganti.

Alcune si muovono nel terreno e fra la giungla, altre preferiscono l'acqua. In questa composizione ce ne sono di entrambi i tipi. Il video completo delle fasi di disegno lo trovate sul mio account instagram Eng

Going backward step by step in this illustration about some frogs who lives in the #Borneo rainforest.

The big island of Borneo is the habitat of numerous, surprising and extravagant specie of frogs. Different for size, aspect, attitudes. Someone lives on the ground, someone else prefer water.

Can You recognize someone you knows? Look at the complete video of the drawing process on my instagram account.

Vulcan teen on Vulcan [tiktok] saying "I have just lost track of my father in the grocery store." The camera turns to show the viewers the grocery store in which almost every single older middle-aged man has a bowlcut and long robes. Camera turns back to show the teen's face which is expressionless and yet communicates all it needs to.

You gotta read and watch some old books and films that aren’t 100% modern politically correct. I’m not saying you should agree with everything in them but you need to learn where genres came from to understand what those genres are doing today and where media deconstructing old tropes is coming from.

Also, more often than you might think, they’re not actually promoting bigotry so much as “didn’t consider all the implications of something” or just used words that were polite then but considered offensive now.

Kill the censor in your head.

Guys they reintroduced Galapagos tortoises to espanola island and they’ve essentially terraformed their environment, knocking over invasive plants so that endangered albatrosses (who need space to take off using the ground as a runway) have returned and established nests!

Do u think the rat guy and mouse lady would try having their own kid? Or are the six she had is enough?

This doesnt answer your question but I think if they did want to try for another litter, going to the rodent OB-gyn would be an experience

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’ve seen those photos of dogs snapped through catching a treat, with just the silliest faces? I see those and raise you: a tiger catching meatballs.

It's insane how casually the calls to end a genocide, not just the students in Columbia University but pro Palestinian views in general, are labelled as terrorists. The audacity to still publicly support Israel's actions even after the horrific bombings these last months and then turn around to say that the ones who oppose it are violent anti semites is just baffling
