jim henson, frank oz & don sahlin showing off how to make various characters with a “whatnot/anything” muppet, 1969
there is such a thing as fireworks. there is such a thing as earthworks, and waterworks. why no airworks? really makes you think.
Clearly this is evidence that the paradigm of the Western classical elements is incorrect.
Note however that the works pattern works completely for the Chinese classical elements: wood, fire, earth, metal, and water.
your mind
cop donut stereotype is bad because being fat and eating many donuts : hot. but police officers: not hot. the humble donut, one of the most sexual foods, the reliable donut. we should take this practice and give it to a different more sexy profession, such as electrician, or professor of linguistics
this is hilarious because all my life i’ve been struck by the utter sexlessness of the american donut. the twee colors, signifying nothing, slathered over identical, dry and bland dough. the mass produced uniformity… yeah, that’s a cop food, i buy that. just because something has a hole doesn’t mean it’s sexy, everybody has some sort of a hole. any picture of a polish donut feels positively indecent in comparison.
how does anyone get from this to that without active desexualizing is beyond me
miri-tiazan asked:
Wait, orcas murder things by yeeting them up into the air? What part of that kills them?
bunjywunjy answered:
the part where a 6-ton animal cannonballs into them at 30 mph and reduces all of their internal organs to a fine paté
So first of all, the orca weighs the same as between two and three minivans. See? And it can reach speeds of 35 miles per hour. So. Basically anything it does to you at speed is going to completely wreck you or almost any other creature alive on the planet
But then! look at this gif of an orca doing the specific tail yeet that was mentioned
full the force required to launch a seal like that is probably lethal by itself. Right? but then the seal reaches an estimated 80 feet (24 meters) ! at which point the surface of the water itself is often lethal to humans falling from that height, so, idk about seals but i bet the fall itself is basically like getting hit with the same truck a second time.
here you can see the relative size of an adult orca and the seals they hunt this way

this is like if a soccer player kicked a house cat full force.
bonus: here’s a gif showing what the tail slap would look like from underwater, and, idk about you, but this one creeps me out. Like, it’s super cool, but also, goosebumps
may i remind you: weighs the same as three minivans. Moves as fast as suburban traffic. Hyper carnivore all meat diet, develops special unique hunting techniques for murdering many many different kinds of animals in all sizes, lots of them mammals - from bite-sized otters to the biggest whales. Close to same intelligence as a human.
“If I had time travel I’d kill Hitler” “If I had time travel I’d stop my favourite politician getting assassinated” you’re all thinking way too small. If I had time travel I’d stop Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin from dying on the moon due to Soviet sabotage, kicking off the Great Nuclear War and devastating half of the planet.
Good Job.
It’s from two days ago fam how many times could there have been

Happy one month anniversary to this post that has not allowed me a single day of fucking peace since I made it.

Still here, why’d you hesitate @derinthescarletpescatarian
Your mum’s ability to hold up under active gunfire was really hot. I’m your dad now.
Isn’t that the plot of Terminator
Where do you think the plot for Terminator came from?
