people new to tumblr angry about being blocked or writing huge paragraphs about why they chose to block someone like i promise you it’s not that deep i once blocked someone because their blog was obnoxiously orange
new rule: reblog with the silliest block you’ve ever made
“
Okmulgee, Oklahoma fire crews say they had a bizarre lightning strike call at the Oxford Apartments overnight. They say lightning came through the vent in the roof and struck the toilet, shattering it.“
I will accept precisely one form of toilet humour and it is jokes about these three pictures.
Holy shit
@bonefarm this looks like the nonsense you have to deal with.
The Camouflaged Looper: these caterpillars fashion their own camouflage by collecting flower petals/vegetation and using silk to “glue” the pieces onto their bodies
Though they’re often referred to as “camouflaged loopers,” these caterpillars are the larvae of the wavy-lined emerald moth (Synchlora aerata).
Camouflaged loopers deploy a unique form of self-defense – they snip off tiny pieces of the flowers upon which they feed, then use bits of silk to attach the vegetation to their backs. This provides them with a kind of camouflage, enabling them to blend in with the plants that they eat.
Some of them create little tufts that run along their backs, while others fashion a thicker camouflage that covers their backs completely. In some cases, the camouflaged loopers will even build much larger bundles that surround their entire bodies.
Their range includes most of North America (from southern Canada down through Texas) and they can feed upon an enormous variety of plants – so the disguises that these caterpillars build can come in countless colors, shapes, and sizes, incorporating many different flowers and other bits of vegetation.
And this is what the fully-developed moth looks like:
So…I was walking down the back alleyway close to my work this morning when I happened to see something clinging to the brick wall behind a small strip mall, and when I got close enough to see what it was, my very first thought was,
“What the FUCK is THAT?”
Since I have no cell phone, I had to run into work, borrow a co-workers phone and run back in order to take a picture of it.
Look. LOOK AT IT.
That’s a whole-ass Pokemon! (Volcarona…)
Never in the forty years I have been alive and living in Ontario, Canada have I either seen or even know we had Moths this huge!
It’s wingspan was a bit wider than the span of my hand between my thumb and little finger (and that’s seven and a half inches as it is!)
One quick internet search later, and I can say with certainty that it was a
Cecropia Moth, the largest native Moth species in North America!
Look at it…look at it’s FLUFFINESS! 😆
It was gently fanning it’s wings when I left, and I hope it found a better hiding spot than conspicuously clinging to a brick wall…
having cash is like having secret money. like whos gonna find out i’m buying tacos with this crisp $20 bill??? not my bank account, that’s for sure
That’s literally why the government wants to stop it
Defend cash. The existence of a cash economy is so so necessary for the survival of every population that the government wants to kill. Homeless people, sex workers, undocumented people, addicts. They all need cash to survive.
A series about a 400-foot tall praying mantis that works in pest control…controlling humans, that is. Watch it above! ^^^
I just released a compilation of all episodes (minus Gregorsa’s notes at the end)! If you feel like getting caught up on them, refreshing yourself, or introducing someone else to the series, this is a great way to do it! And, if you’re new to the series…enjoy!
