To all the alterhumans / nonhumans who dont know what to do: now is the time for you to start putting your money where your mouth is.

If youre an animal, it's time for you to be a goddamn animal. Be feral, Be aggressive, fight for your life.

If you're a dragon, then be a terror to Kings, and start burning down the halls of power like the dragons of yore.

If you're a mythical creature, have no concern for the social constructs of man. Stand proudly outside what people even believe is possible.

If you're plural, know you're never alone. Fight against individualism that seeks to divide each body into deterministic boxes.

If you're a fictional character who saved the world, believe that you can save any world. Don't back down now.

Now is the time to really believe that you are what you say you are. People in power are going to try to take that away from you. Don't fall for it.

It's time shed any preconceptions you have about what you're capable of. If you're an animal it's time to fight like one. A dragon that uses gasoline and matches is still a dragon.

All bets are off. If they want to treat us like dogs in a cage then im gonna start ripping fascists' throats out like one. And I'd better see y'all there with me, on G-d.

Fun marine biology fact #2874:

why didn't coelacanths(🐟) go extinct and survived for so long??? (At least like 10 years) well. This is because they love you. Because they love so much.,

hammerhead flatworms (Bipaliinae) are in my estimation among the most beautiful terrestrial animals, often sporting bright colors and striking patterns that advertise their toxicity.

bipaliines feed on either worms or land gastropods, tracking the slime trails of prey with their highly sensitive spade- or crescent-shaped head plate.

Southeast Asia is a hotspot for bipaliine diversity, and at least six species can be found in Singapore, all of which I managed to encounter this summer!

disability is just a way people can exist and a way people can be born and a thing that can happen to you. it's a fact of life. it's natural

it's not immoral or a punishment or a sign of evil or an "excuse to be lazy and unmotivated" or a way people use to make other people pity them and give them things. it's not sloth. it's not "impure" and it does not make someone an abomination or a mistake

disability is a normal, natural occurrence and not something people should be punished, starved, abused, abandoned, rejected, excluded, mocked, freak showed, gawked over, isolated, and murdered for

and the system we live in that does this to us is not normal or natural or ok. you don't deserve to be hurt. you don't deserve to have to feel ashamed or like you need to fix or hide yourself or "work harder". you are alive and you deserve to be alive. i'm glad you're alive. i'm glad you exist.

An Extraordinary Macro Timelapse of Aquatic Wildlife by Sandro Bocci

The above clip is a trailer of sorts for an upcoming non-verbal film titled Prograve by Italian filmmaker and documentarist Sandro Bocci. The feature is billed as (translated from Italian) “an experimental film orbiting scientific and philosophical reflections on time and space, and that through various shooting techniques, fields of magnification, and an exciting soundtrack, weaves a web between science and magic.” The section shown here depicts beautiful macro timelapses of coral, sponges and other aquatic wildlife filmed under ultraviolet light.  (via Vimeo Staff Picks, Coudal)

"be not afraid"

demanding

you have no right to control another person's feelings

does not provide a productive alternative

"when you hide behind that rock I feel as though you don't appreciate the fact that I came all this way to deliver the word of god"

statement of fact

not pushy

opens conversation to productive compromise

emotionally aware

I find it so absurd that for CENTURIES settlers have done everything they possibly could to destroy indigenous cultures and religions and spirituality under the guise of "saving" us and now they're dealing with the consequences of rejecting their own heritages and religious identities and looking at indigenous people to save them from that.

What absolute fucking bullshit.
