My Most Toxic Autistic Trait Is That I Can't Stand When People Say "which Came First, The Chicken Or

my most toxic autistic trait is that i can't stand when people say "which came first, the chicken or the egg?" because isn't it obvious? the egg! egg technology was invented far before anything that even resembled a chicken stomped and pecked its way onto the scene! egg technology facilitated organisms leaving the ocean full-time without having to return to the ocean to reproduce! it's a way to bring the ocean to you, in a handy little shell or amniotic sac or whatever! EGG!!!! EGG CAME FIRST!!!! CHICKEN IS RECENT!!!!!! EGG IS ANCIENT!!!!!!!

GORGEOUS AND ALSO IT HAS EXCELLENT DESCRIPTIVE ALT TEXT !!

a digital painting of a bird sitting on a log. it is a square painting, and he is almost perfectly centered, sitting in profile to the viewer, facing to the left, where the lightsource seems to be. the log has rough bark. the bird has a white underbelly, a short pointy peak, a very round stature, and a short tail. his body is covered in dark brown stripes, his backside is a rusty brown, and his eye is a stark red. the painting is almost entirely shades of brown, white, red, and orange around him, with hints of grey and blue.

september's bird for BirdWhisperer is a Dunnock! what a handsome little lad

Screenshot of part of an email I received from Tumblr approving my Blazed post, which reads:

"Hi there feral-mannequin,

Your Blaze campaign has been approved (party popper/confetti emoji) but wait—there’s more!

From time to time, something particularly special comes along. The kind of post that stops you in your tracks, or the kind you want to seal in a little time capsule and count down the days until you can show it to your grandkids. And, Dear Reader, this is that very post. In fact, we liked it so much that we wanted to scream about it from the mountaintop. Unfortunately, however, we don’t have a mountaintop, and we don’t yet have grandkids. So we just decided to Blaze it to high heaven instead, and we will be adding a bonus 100,000 impressions. It is simply a considerable boost for an extremely cool post. Because whatever “it” is, you’ve got it—and we don’t just love it; no, we appreciate it, and want to share it far and wide. And we can’t wait to see what else you’ll come up with next."

holy shit i am being perceived by far more people than i expected, sorry about that lol

Doc's depression is cured and he now knows how to do a Sit (only on carpet and yes it does take him approximately 45 seconds to do the Sit but that still counts)

thank you Tumblr

Love how tumblr has its own folk stories. Yeah the God of Arepo we’ve all heard the story and we all still cry about it. Yeah that one about the woman locked up for centuries finally getting free. That one about the witch who would marry anyone who could get her house key from her cat and it’s revealed she IS the cat after the narrator befriends the cat.

A brunette nonbinary person with glasses, sitting on a futon and attempting to drink a chocolate, peanut butter, and banana shake. Oscar, the orange tabby cat, leapt across my lap and is being suspended at the waist by one of my arms hooked under him as my other arm tries to pull the shake cup away. But Oscar's front paws are grasping the sides of the cup, tipping it towards his mouth which is dipped into the cup as he licks the inside. His back toes are still extended from the force of his mouth. I am laughing and looking into the camera, and a very surprised tan pitbull is laying behind me, looking up at Oscar. Oscar is so incredibly long here. Just a massively long boy.
A photo of me holding Oscar the way he likes to be held, showing the sheer size of this massive orange cat. I am 5 foot 3 inches, and his upper half is draped over my shoulders while his back legs are bracing against my hips. My right arm is hooked under his butt, where most of his weight is being carried here. He is looking out the window in the door behind me, and the light from the window is highlighting his handsome creamy white mouth.

fellow long boys unite !!! (Oscar says "hellow!!!")

now availoble: Wembley, by the yarde! 😊👍📏

wembley, a black cat, is laying on his side on a hardwood floor. a yardstick lays nearby, parallel to his back, and he is nearly as long as it, including his tail! hes maybe 7/8 of a yard in this position, around 5/8 without his tail? Long. 👍

"now available: Wembley, by the yard!"

Palestine campaigns with under a thousand donations

Trying a new tactic with the fundraisers on my pinned list. These campaigns appear to gain a lot more traction when the number of donations hits a thousand, so here's a way to highlight those that could use more. These have all been vetted by Palestinians on Tumblr. Just like the main list, I'll keep you all updated with how things progress, and as always, if you can't donate, reblog.
