Common stonewort (Chara vulgaris) Area: Loch Ness (and many many other bogs, marshes, and bodies of water)

The other night husband and I were watching a documentary about the yeti where they were doing DNA analysis of samples of supposed yeti fur, and every one of them came back as bears.

Anyway, the next night we watched a thing about some pig man who is supposed to live in Vermont. People said it had claws and a pig nose but walked upright like a man. Now, I happen to know that sideshows used to shave bears and present them as pig men. So every piece of evidence they gave of this monster sounds to me like a bear with mange.

So now the running joke in our house is that everything is bears. Aliens? Bears. Loch Ness monster? Bear. Every cryptozoological mystery is just a very crafty bear.

Bears. They’re everywhere. Be wary. Anyone or anything could be a bear.

My last reblog before this post was about manatees and eel grass. ->Thinking about eel grass obviously got me thinking about the Sargasso Sea! I jaunted over to the Wiki page for it because the Sargasso Sea one of my favorite things on the planet. -> While poking through the page I learned about a type of Sargasso sea grass found in Japan. -> Saw this post about sudokus and remembered the sea grass :))

Strawberry tree (also called the "Irish strawberry tree") (Arbutus unedo) Area: Native to the Mediterranean Basin. National Tree of Italy

remember kids, the moral of "Irish and Italians weren't even considered White yet!" isn't "because in those times people were so ignorant they didn't think the Irish were white". the moral is "because white is an unreal category created to justify slavery and ongoing hoarding of power and wealth". It's not that you know better about Italians. It's that the boundaries of the higher caste have changed.

The phrase “qu’est-ce qu’y’all doing aujourd’hui” came out of my mouth this evening and i think that might be the pinnacle of human language. i love being annoying
