getting obsessed with your own ocs sucks ass because you gotta be the one that makes all the content for them like damn whats a guy gotta do around here to see their made up scrimblos drawn by someone else

Here’s one good thing to come out of 2020:

Paleontologists completed a life-sized replica of Sue, the most complete T. Rex ever found.

And she is freaking GORGEOUS!

As I read more about this beauty, I found out some new details regarding things I thought I previously knew about the beast that was Tyrannosaurus Rex, and I’m going to share them with you.

First, and most obvious, her size:

This is nothing new, we all figured T. Rex was big, but I for one never stopped to consider exactly how big it was. Nobody ever really knows what to imagine when they read about something the size of a whale that walked around and ate everything it could kill. 

Speaking of eating things, I just want to remind you all that T. Rex had–by miles–the strongest bite of any terrestrial animal living or dead, somewhere around six and a half tons of force. That’s over six times greater than the current estimate of what Allosaurus was capable of, and three times what was delivered by the highest measured reading of the living title holder–the estuarine crocodile. It didn’t have to waste time swinging its head open-mouthed like Saurophaganax for a little extra oomph, or grow fancy serrated teeth like Carcharodontosaurus to cut pieces out of its prey. It opted for the simplest approach: get its mouth around something and crush it to death; imagine the full weight of an elephant on whatever was between this thing’s jaws.

“How did it find something to eat?” I hear you asking. “It can’t see something if it doesn’t move, right?”

Listen, I love Jurassic Park too, but that’s a big crock of shit.

Notice how both her eyes face forward. That gives her binocular vision (the ability to focus both eyes on one target, like you and I). More importantly it means she has impeccable depth perception due to overlapping fields of vision from each, large, eyeball. Researchers agree that T. Rex not only had incredible vision, but that it was probably better than most modern animals–including eagles, hawks, and owls–and that she could likely spot something three and a half miles away. If something that big can see that well, it doesn’t matter if you move or not, she’d be able to tell if it was an animal trying to hide or a piece of vegetation. So pray she isn’t hungry if she lays eyes on you. And even if by some miracle she didn’t see you, she’d still smell you. 

If she decided you looked tasty, you probably wouldn’t hear her coming as much as you’d feel her. Modern science indicates that T. Rex didn’t roar like in Jurassic Park, but rather bellowed or maybe even hissed like crocodilians. If she were on to you, you’d most likely feel this sense of unease creep up your spine as a low-pitched rumble in the air permeated through you. You wouldn’t know what it was or where it was coming from until you hear her footfalls. By then it’s too late–you could try to run but she’d probably catch you. There’s plenty on YouTube that reconstructs what T. Rex may have sounded like, and it’s legitimately haunting.  

To wrap all of this up, the one bit of good that came out of the cursed year that is 2020 is that this wonderful child of science and art came into the world, and reaffirmed my respect and admiration for the eight ton slab of muscle and teeth that is this magnificent creature.

…and it is nothing if not magnificent.

Let me just say, I love both Boba Fett and Fennec Shand more than life, but if they try and put Fennec and Boba into a romantic relationship so help me

Its from that meme

huh??

SOME AROS HAVE CASUAL SEX AND THEY SHOULDN'T BE DEMONIZED FOR IT

Some friendly reminders for the Aromantic Spectrum Awareness Week (& beyond)

- Aromanticism is not part of the asexuality spectrum.

- Aromanticism and asexuality are two different identities.

- The "A" in LGBTQIA+ stands for aromantic as well.

- Some aros feel romantic love. Some even fall in love. Some feel only platonic love. And some aros don't feel love at all. And that's okay.

- Ace is not interchangeable for aro.

- Being aro isn't "sad".

- Loveless aros exist and should be appreciated and cherished.

- "Aros still experience other types of love!" or "Love is love!" are exclusive and we should stop using them for the whole aro community. Even if you're aro - stop using them on the behalf of all aros. This is harmful.

- Some aros are straight.

- Some aros are gay.

- Some aros are bi or pan.

- If you think it's wrong for a gay/lesbian character to be shipped with the opposite gender, than you should think the same about aro/ace characters, who canonically don't want/aren't in relationship to be shipped with other characters.

- Some aros are also ace.

- Some aros are also allo.

- Some aros are non-SAM.

- Some aros have casual sex and they shouldn't be demonized for it.

- Don't call it "aromantic awareness week". It's Aromantic Spectrum Awareness Week for a reason.

- All aros deserve aro rep.

- All aros are queer.

- All aros are human.

- This post isn't all there is for aros. Do your own research as well.
