I need fast access to good tags asap. I want news, true crime, horror art, cat memes, nature biologists - animals & plants & bugs, garden stuff, cute animals, weather/meteorology, space science, archaeology…
I dunno why, but it’s kinda hard to find a good tag & even harder finding good blogs. maybe I’m dumb tho.
Not a question, but I need someone buggy to appreciate this with me. I just learned about the Iridescent Leaf-beetle Jumping Spider from browsing iNat. They're so pretty...
Most animals have a fundamentally different experience of the world than we do, so the possibility of friendship between insects is a difficult thing to judge.
I think we can safely rule out friendship between cicadas and all the species of wasps that want to eat them. That still leaves tens of thousands of species of wasps that have no direct ecological relationship with cicadas, in what we will call the “kind of maybe plausible friendship zone”. I think their friendship might go something like this:
wasp: *cleans wing with foot* cicada: wasp: *sniffs air with antenna* cicada: wasp: cicada: Å̷͉̕Å̷̳͝A̷̫̭̒Ả̷̢̺̓A̵̢͒̏A̴̛̬̿Ä̴̯A̵̰̓̆A̷͈̔ͅÄ̵̡́ͅA̷̟̬̓A̷̭̓Å̸͔ͅA̷̘̰͐A̶̦͝Ȁ̸̦̝A̸̻͆A̷̬̽͊A̸̠͊A̴̮̎A̷̗̬͒̋Ǎ̴̰̳Ǎ̶̛͇A̷̩̣͗͌A̴̮͘ͅÃ̴ͅÀ̵̫ wasp: big shake :0 !!! cicada: wasp: *checks underside of leaf for aphids* cicada: *falls off leaf*
This hack will save your teeth: there are no “right” and “wrong” times to brush your teeth.
It gets in your head that you brush after eating when you wake up and when you go to sleep. Yeah that’s all well and good, but those are times that don’t have a lot of motivation and control…So just…brush your teeth at a different time.
You go to the bathroom in the middle of the day and are like “I should brush my teeth” DO IT!!!! Don’t listen to the other half of that sentence that says “shit but it’s not the right time”
I don’t care if you’re about to eat, or get coffee, or whatever.
If you are there and you want to…do it.
Honestly this hack will solve most of problems. Just stop assigning meaningless “right” and “wrong” to tasks and start saying “I can pretty much do whatever I want whenever I want and society and its expectations don’t really matter to me”.
If there’s no barrier in the first place you don’t have to get over it.
huge ADHD hack. if you can get over the “all or nothing”, moralizing, judging aspect of every action you “should” take, you’ll discover you can get more done than you expect.
I’m a big fan of the 2 PM shower. spend a whole morning feeling lazy and guilty, then just decide to start the day over again, even if it is lunchtime.
you can always begin again. any hour, any moment can be the beginning. you can choose that. the clock doesn’t run you, you run the clock
you can always begin again. any hour, any moment can be the beginning. you can choose that
I put a toothbrush and toothpaste at every sink. It’s uh, a solution. Also, if you’re like me and get stupid bored standing at the sink and brushing your teeth, just wander around while you do it. Who cares. It’s fine. Also acceptable: sitting on sturdy tables, sleeping on floors, making a pillow fort in your bathtub who cares it’s fine
So I binged the entirety of How To Build a Sex Room last night and this one scene just cracked me up
The designer’s at a western leather/tack store looking for supplies to make a rustic-style sex swing and turns to one of the store employees for advice, which initially goes about as amusingly as you would expect
So then she pulls up some pictures to give him an idea of what she needs
Watching your beloved mutual go on an unhinged reblogging spree about a game you don’t play while you go on an unhinged reblogging spree about a show they don’t watch is actually a form of parallel play
