  • I still can't fucking get over how cetaceans adapted to spend their entire lives in the water and just never bothered to redevelop water-breathing. there's motherfuckers who spend an hour or more diving and the evolutionary solution is just "breathe a lot on the surface and then lower your heart rate to a near-hibernation level while actively cruising the seafloor for stuff to eat". totally insane solution to one of the oldest solved problems in biology

  • reblog if you fully and intentionally are referring to aspec people as well when you use the word queer to refer to the community

  • my partner once said, "if you have to explain your sexuality to straight people, you're probably queer"

  • my dad always says "it's not trespassing if you're not planning to do anything bad" which as a legal argument wouldn't get far but as a moral prerogative is completely sound

  • officer i am literally just in a location

  • Dear unpaid intern,

    How do you feel about the fact that Neil Gaiman is reblogging your dumb coffee and sock memes on tumblr dot com?

  • I love Neil Gaiman, and I am grateful to him for many things, including

    • being the first person with an audience to support our YouTube channel. Way back in March of 2007, when two or three hundred people were watching vlogbrothers, Neil blogged about one of our videos, and doubled our audience instantly.
    • his books
    • his tv shows
    • his support of Hank and me and so many other writers and artists over the decades
    • his organizing and support for the WGA and other unions
    • one time he played Carnegie Hall with us for $0 just because he is nice and wanted to play Carnegie Hall with us.
  • Thinking about the fact that when Harrow finally breaks to Ortus, she says “She died because I let her!” And we’ve previously learned that Gideon specifically pierced her heart on the fence and Harrow “has always had a knack for the aorta” back from when she used to keep old Ninth acolytes going long enough for their last rites…so picturing Harrow totally spent trying to summon any ounce of ability to do something she definitely knows how to do, something she’s particularly good at, something that might actually keep her Nav alive but she’s utterly out of ability to do it…so she just internalizes the failure like every single other time in her miserable life. Ugh.

  • when gerard way sings "the broken, the beaten, and the damned" and when kermit the frog sings "the lovers, the dreamers, and me" they're talking about the same people btw

  • Just realized that the reason I love making friends on tumblr is because it’s exactly how you make friends on the playground as a six year old. No, I don’t know their name but they love mermaids too and built this awesome sand castle. No, I don’t know their age but their imaginary cheetah is friends with mine. You like this show? You like this character?? You can sing the theme song really loud??? Here is a flower crown. Here is a juice box. You can share my time and I might never see you again but part of you stays in my soul forever. In my mind we’re still on the swing set and the sky is blue and nothing will ever be wrong again.
