🐢snappturt Follow Dear Tumblr, am I the Basshole for the way I catch minnows? I was chatting with some of the guys I bask with and they said the way I catch minnows is problematic; What I do is I sit on the bottom of the lake, I hide myself in the mud and I open my mouth. My tongue looks a lot like a little worm so I wiggle it around- and because of that, minnows swim over and check it out. Once they get close enough, then I bite down and eat them. Some of my rockmates have told me that this is manipulative and toxic behavior- but they also eat minnows...I don't know guys...

🐠Shadlad Follow I'm not sorry, and I'm not afraid to say it, if you're an introduced species, go dry yourself out. You're not welcome to eat up all of our resources and live in my ancestral longs and rock crags. These things are for us to relate to and not for you to squander.
♻️🦞crevice-steve Follow
Can't believe this type of fishcourse is still popular on this site, introduced species didn't choose to be introduced and have as much of a right to live as anyone else. Bigotry against introduced species is still bigotry and that's a hill I will dry on. ♻️🐠Shadlad Follow Go ahead, dry yourself out then ;) ♻️🪷nootnootnewt Follow Hey man, I hate invasive species as much as anyone else but please stop telling people to beach themselves for political reasons- yeah that includes inavsives too ♻️🦐typical_scud Follow Did you legit just use the word Invas*ve to describe introduced species? ♻️🦢flatfootswimmer Follow anyone in this thread eat pondweed?
Tumblr media
♻️🐟largemouthbASS Follow A colab with my mutual @2xcrested_cormorant after they got released from the wildlife hospital. They haven't been on much since the Fish and Wildlife Service released them in the wrong lake and it took them a while to get back to their colony. We hope this guide will help you avoid accidentally eating/engaging with bait!

Okay, these two moments combined break my heart a little bit (into tiny pieces):
Men came to the door crying for the Lord of the City. 'Nay, I will not come down,' he said. 'I must stay beside my son. He might still speak before the end. RotK, book V, Chapter 4 "The Siege of Gondor"
...Then Gandalf revealed the strength that lay hid in him; even as the light of his power was hidden under his grey mantle. He leaped up on to the faggots, and raising the sick man lightly he sprang down again, and bore him towards the door. But as he did so Faramir moaned and called on his father in his dream. Denethor started as one waking from a trance, and the flame died in his eyes, and he wept; and he said: 'Do not take my son from me! He calls for me.' RotK, book V, Chapter 7 "The Pyre of Denethor"
The only thing Denethor wanted is to hear his son speaking one last time. And his wish was granted.
He did hear Faramir speaking, and not something random. Before the end he was reminded that despite everything bad that happened between them, Faramir still needed him. Faramir called for his father, not Gandalf, or Imrahil, or Boromir, or anyone else. Deep down he believed that if something bad is happening to him his father would be the one who will come and help (and he's right; however crazy Denethor's actions are in these scenes, he does it not to "punish" or "torture", he truly believes that he's doing what's best for Faramir in these conditions). That's heartbreaking as it is.
But there's more. It's Faramir who is able to bring Denethor back to his senses, even for a little while - something no one else could achieve, all the others who tried to reason with the madman were ignored. The only words that mattered were the ones from Faramir.
If that doesn't mean they really loved each other as close relatives are expected to...
Like, I don't know, if such a scene happened in some pairing with a similar dynamics (two characters always fight, while actually caring about each other plenty), I'm sure the shippers would fiercely claim it a proof of true love.

i’m spending today thinking about how saber toothed cats ALSO probably had a potato form.  how they also had a stage where they were fat little babies with very triangle tails and tiny squeaky voices.  how they also probably play wrestled and failed badly at calculating jumps.
i’m going to fistfight god for killing them off before i could personally see fat potato saber kittens
