Amity is a Dimensional Dump

So! Amity Park is a hub of weirdness of all sorts, mostly undead, but there are also a bunch of Multiversal oddities connected to the small town.

There are the minor anomalies. 5th Street has a bad habit of slipping into the Backrooms, Old Lady Jenkin's House sometimes has snow in summer, and of course the Night Sky had a 20% chance of swapping views to another Galaxy. Danny likes that one a lot.

But the biggest Anomaly is how many Multiversal Travellers get lost there.

They are always finding somebody wandering the streets with no idea where they are, and have to help them find their reality of origin. Other times they decide to stay for various reasons, ranging from a bad home life to being the only survivors of a Dead Universe. Half of the population if Amity was made up of the descendants of Lost Travelers, so their DNA was really a mixed bag.

Danny was flying over town when he spotted a Blur on the ground below.

He flew down to intercept, and found a boy in red and yellow panicking over his situation.

"Hey! Can I help you?" He called out.

The boy looked up, and gasped "Are you a Hero? I need help getting back to the Justice League!"

Danny chuckled, "Which one?"

The boy looked confused, "The Adult One? I guess?"

"Not what I meant, sorry. I mean, which Dimension are you from?" He clarified.

"Dimensions? What is going on!?" He shouted.

"Okay, let's calm down and restart. My name is Danny, who are you?" He introduced himself.

The boy took a deep breath, calming himself, before saying, "Okay, my name is Kid Flash, but you can just call me Wally."

you and bakugou getting paired up on one of those intense survival-y gameshows and he gets so mad at himself for thinking about you in some ooey-gooey way when he's supposed to be there to WIN

these nice big wandering spiders (Ancylometes bogotensis) were a common sight at the last few sites I stayed at in Costa Rica. initially, I thought I was seeing multiple species, but apparently there’s a number of color morphs (I think? these seem to all be adult) in both sexes. my favorite was the all-black male with hints of blue iridescence.

I have a very specific type

And I'm always looking for more of them... enlighten me, I welcome it.

Now improved. Includes some honourable mentions who I think have a strong enough performance.

Wouldn't squirrels be a really god observation morph? As I saw a page point out for Squirrel Girl, Squirrels are pretty much everywhere.

Yes! We see the Animorphs use squirrel that way a little in #35 and #4 — their dexterous "hands" and banality come in handy. That said, I don't know that squirrel nets a huge advantage over seagull or housefly.

Gulls are everywhere outside (it being a beach town) and seen as uninteresting as squirrels, BUT they're better able to escape, more known for approaching humans, and eaten by predators less often. Flies are more vulnerable BUT they're one of very few animals that can move around inside without humans killing, evicting, or even noticing them much of the time. Which is why we see gull or fly morph used in almost every book, more than any other group morphs except maybe raptor.

MORE BABIES-AGAIN

Im thought i give the twst a break this time in terms of art-But next one afterthis it can be twst☆

[sporuss]

hobie and gwen practicing together and gwen has another moment like at the start where she’s just whacking at those drums and losing herself but instead of cutting her off hobie just. lets her play. and she goes on for a while, and she’s losing herself and hobie just sits back. and eventually she finishes, and she’s breathless and her hands hurt and the room feels deathly silent. she sighs, and she drops her sticks and stares down at the kit. and she’s apologizing because the song was over ages ago and she probably totally ruined it but hobie stops her. because clearly there’s a lot of something built up in there and frankly if you’re gonna let it out best to beat up the shitty old drum kit in his basement. gwen glances up finally and hobie has that “you good?” look on his face, and she nods. and the drums definitely take a few more gwen beatings over the next while, but at least she knows it’s a safe place to do it.

[onenicebugperday]

can i get some spiders that DO have very strong venom? not because i want one to be mean to but because i think spiders are really cool!!

Spiders ARE really cool.

The Sydney funnel-web spider (Atrax robustus- found only near Sydney, Australia), and Brazilian wandering spiders (genus Phoneutria - found throughout Central and South America) are, as I understand it, considered the most deadly in the world.

But both of them only have something like 13-15 recorded deaths attributed to them from around the beginning of the 1900s until antivenoms were created for them in the 80s and 90s respectively, so it's not like they're out there killing people left and right.

By comparison and depending on the source, 0-1 deaths are attributed to the brown recluse in the United States. As for black widows, zero deaths have been reported since 1983, but it's hard to find reliable data from before that. Honestly it's hard to find reliable spider bite data at all because bites are often misattributed.

Either way, spiders in general are not nearly as deadly as people seem to think they are.

Let's admire a Sydney funnel-web spider!

What a kissable little face!

Ope maybe not :') Photos by thebeachcomber

And a Brazilian wandering spider, Phoneutria fera:

Cutie pie!!

Look they want to be picked up and kissed :) Just kidding that's a threat display and it means you better back up or you'll regret it.

The Brazilian wandering spider called Phoneutria boliviensis is found in Central and South America’s dry and humid tropical forests.
