eels are snakes. discuss

no, they're a type of fish. snakes are reptiles, and not fish.

I absolutely love humans are space orcs, so here’s a three prompts.

1: Body swap.

If two species find each other weird, can you imagine the reactions to suddenly BEING in that body?

It’s one thing to inspect something from afar, it’s another thing to be the thing your inspecting.

Bonus points if one of them have a disability either mental or physical.

“Damn this feels like shit how do you put up with this stuff?”

2: hallucinations, illusions, and dreams.

Most aliens don’t have these, and their minds don’t conjure up stuff for shits and giggles, so seeing something that isn’t there is a very foreign concept to them.

The way humans hyperfixate or insert themselves into scenarios feels way to real for aliens already, and they just don’t know how to handle someone getting lost in their own mind.

Aliens DO have mental disabilities, but their brains are much less prone to them because they aren’t designed like some kid put it together with glue and popsicle sticks before having to tape it back together after the 27th time it falls apart.

A: “Your brain is so complex!”

H: “Oh, thank you!”

A: “in a bad way.”

Dreams are the weirdest to them, because it’s not just one or two things popping up in your vision, but instead a whole landscape. AND they’re unconscious.

When humans tell them about their dreams, they want to transfer them to a mental facility, but you can’t exactly do that to a whole species.

Especially with nightmares.

3: Australia, Florida, Oceans, and “Fun facts!”

Earth is space Australia already, but what if they just went to the actual thing?

After hearing all about weird human anatomy, they wonder about the other anatomy their planet has to offer.

Fun fact! Here’s a creature that can kill you in seconds. Fun fact! Look at this freak of nature. Fun fact! This thing hides in the blind spots of god. Fun fact! Run.

A: “Hey human, why are you scared of the arainds?”

H: “I’m sorry, they just look like spiders and I have arachnophobia.”

A: “Whats arachnophobia?”

H: “Fear of spiders. Most humans have it”

A: “Wait, that’s a trait humans share? Why?”

H: “Creatures like spiders, snakes and wasps have terrorized our species for so long, that the fear of them had wormed its way into our very DNA and traumatized a whole species.”

A: “oh….. ok”

Eclipse: THERE’S A SNAKE IN MY LAB!

Blood Moon, picking up the snake: Oh, you met Wiggles? Isn’t he cute?

Eclipse: GET IT OUT!

animal familiar poll

whenever I play dnd, my characters somehow always end up with a collection of animal familiars. so, in order to carry this theme over to the IF, I am turning to democracy.

What? No! Of course I don’t hate you. You’re allowed to like what you want, and that’s okay. Just because I don’t like it too doesn’t mean I don’t like you. We’re still friends, Kit; don’t worry.

Now if you ask me to like…snake sit for you, you’re getting a definite hell no. But you’re totally allowed to like snakes, and I’m totally allowed to not like them. What people shouldn’t do is make you feel horrible for liking them or anything else you may like, and I’m sorry you’re being treated that way.

Zoophobia, or animal phobia, is the irrational fear or aversion towards animals (excluding humans). Zoophobia is the general negative reaction to animals, but it is usually divided into many subgroups, each being of a specific type of zoophobia. Although zoophobia as a whole is quite rare, types of the fear are common. As mentioned before by Sigmund Freud, an animal phobia is one of the most frequent psychoneurotic diseases among children. Zoophobia is almost never towards mammals, but instead towards non-mammalia creatures. A list of common zoophobias is shown below.

Ailurophobia- fear of cats

Arachnophobia- fear of arachnids

Batrachophobia- fear of amphibians

Chiroptophobia- fear of bats

Cynophobia- fear of dogs

Entomophobia- fear of insects

Equinophobia- fear of horses

Ichthyophobia- fear of fish

Lepidopterophobia- fear of butterflies and/or moths

Melissophobia- fear of bees

Musophobia- fear of mice and rats

Ophidiophobia-fear of snakes

Ornithophobia- fear of birds

Ostraconophobia- fear of shellfish

Ranidaphobia- fear of frogs

Vermiphobia- fear of worms

Has anyone ever listened to a song and just. had something really specific weave itself into your mind? Like, not even a specific OC or character from a media you’re hyperfixating on - just, like, more of a specific concept than anything.

Example: I’ve gotten two of these from the song Chlorine by 21 Pilots. When I first heard the song a few years back, I got this scenario in my head of a Salazzle (the Pokémon) hunting a man down JP-dinosaur-style through some sort of industrial facility.

Much more recently, though, I get this concept of a person who’s born with PTSD, due to their mother experiencing some sort of trauma shortly before they were born. Thus, the person has a lot of mental stuff that they struggle to explain. Then one day, the person gets bitten by a venomous snake, and for whichever reason the venom affects their brain in a way that ends up helping them sort out and explain their issues, which they end up doing so to their friends while recovering in the hospital. I dunno, random.

Lunar: *sees Blue Moon petting his pet snake*

Lunar: Can I hold him? He looks very kind.

Blue Moon: Sure? Be careful, New Moon is very skittish.

Lunar, holding New Moon: Hi, little guy.

New Moon: *bleps Lunar’s face*

Lunar, squealing: He likes me!

Blue Moon: He does. And yet, it took him a week to warm up to Bloody.

...i bet those trains are actually snakes with limbs in metal casings. they say they drive on the rails but i know the truth - they're pedaling under that metal covering, just so the wheels to move.
