And it doesn't pop up a box every time asking you to use your real name. In fact, there's no way to set your name at all. You just have to keep reminding people who you are.

Destroy The Halls With Boughs Of Maymo

by Brinke

Maymo and Penny decided “Deck The Halls” wouldn’t quite do the trick–so they took it one step further. An APB has now been issued– their current whereabouts are unknown. They should be considered armed & extremely frisky.

“In keeping with the cheer that comes along with the holiday, I’ve just uploaded a video of Reindeer Maymo & Santa Penny destroying a large number of Christmas-themed items, and then blowing up the house. Happy holidays from Maymes & Penny.” -Jay.

Charlie-Brown-the-Goldendoodle puppy
Hi, I'm Charlie! I am a furry, cuddly, rambunctious puppy who loves to play. I enjoy life in Silicon Valley, going to work with my papa by day, and frequenting cafes and restaurants by night. My favorite games are playing catch, eating leaves, and chasing ice.

Two-Toed Sloth Joins the Family at the National Aquarium

by Andrew Bleiman

IMG_1039_edited

The National Aquarium welcomed a new addition to their Upland Tropical Rainforest—a baby sloth! The baby, named Scout, was born on November 17 to mother Ivy. In order to give Ivy and her baby time to bond, the staff has been observing the pair from a distance. Because of this, the newborn’s weight, height, and gender have yet to be determined. The baby joins an ever growing family of five with Syd, Howie, Xeno, Camden and Ivy. Scout is the fourth sloth born at the aquarium and the second born to Ivy. In celebration of Scout’s arrival, the National Aquarium has set up a baby registry. Fans can make donations to help purchase essential supplies to help care for Scout.

“Our team is thrilled to welcome another baby sloth to our Rain Forest habitat,” said Ken Howell, Curator of the Upland Tropical Rain Forest. “It is an honor to work with these incredible animals and inspire our guests to learn more about the ways they can protect them.”

Sloths have had a home at the aquarium since 2007. Linne’s Two-Toes Sloths can be found in the aquarium’s Upland Tropical Rainforest, an exhibit modeled after the species' native habitat—South American rain forests. These slow moving mammals spend almost their entire lives in the trees, sleeping up to 20 hours a day.

awkwardsituationist: someone in the world is maimed or killed...

by areshoekiddingme












awkwardsituationist:

someone in the world is maimed or killed by a landmine every hour. apopo is a not for profit ngo that has spent the last twenty years developing and implementing “hero rats” to clear affected areas of their landmines - over 1500 in tanzania, where apopo is headquartered, 2,728 in mozambique, and 657 in thailand. there also ongoing operations in angola and cambodia. 

rats are known to be amongst the most sensitive animals when it comes to smell, with more functional genes for their olfactory system than any other mammal. a rat’s nose is constantly active and moving, and is always close to ground where vapour concentrations are highest and wind speeds are lowest.

the african giant pouched rat, being highly sociable and native to sub saharan africa, is specifically trained to detect tnt and mine casing minerals. using a combination of click training and food rewarding that begins shortly after birth and lasts nine months, the rats are able to cover 100 square metres of land in 20 minutes - something a human would need an entire day to do.

weighing just over a kilogram, the rats are too light to set off a landmine, and not one has died from the work. apopo adheres to very strict animal welfare protocols, and the rats are treated with the greatest of care and attention, with most meeting their expected eight years of life.

photos by sylvain piraux. consider adopting a rat, where you’ll get real time updates on your rat’s training and life saving work. you can also chose to instead have your rat trained to sniff out tuberculosis in sub saharan african villages (apopo has trained rats to do in ten minutes what it takes lab technicians a day to detect)

by areshoekiddingme
“Stevie Nicks surrounds herself with girls. Wherever she goes, she brings girls. “I can’t imagine you in a bathing suit,” someone says in an interview for Rolling Stone, when Stevie says she likes to play in the pool in her backyard. “Yeah, well, you never will,” Stevie says. “And there is never — ever — a man in the backyard. If there is, he is banished to the front of the house.” Men don’t get to look at Stevie Nicks unless Stevie Nicks wants men to look at Stevie Nicks.”

Nicola Griffith on 'Hild,' a medieval novel with a bisexual protagonist - Gay Lesbian Bi Trans News Archive - Windy City Times

Nicola Griffith on 'Hild,' a medieval novel with a bisexual protagonist - Gay Lesbian Bi Trans News Archive - Windy City Times:

bisexual-community:

Windy City Times: You’ve written lesbian stories before but Hild is your first bisexual character. What has that been like? 

Nicola Griffith: I’ve had some mentions online of people saying they’re pleased about having a bisexual character in a really well-written book. I think bisexuals are underrepresented in a realistic way. I think they’re overrepresented for the male gaze. But for actual bisexuals, I don’t think there’s enough representation at all.

Hild: A Novel by Nicola Griffith — Set in seventh-century Anglo-Saxon England, during the early years of Christianity the book explores the young life of Hild, the future St. Hilda of Whitby, an actual seventh-century English girl.

Don’t wish death on your enemies. Wish geese on them. Wish thousands of geese into their life. Geese in their yard. Geese in their car. Geese in their workplace. Geese in their bed. Tiny geese in their hair. Geese in their food. JPEGs of angry geese overtaking their computer. Turn their whole family into geese. Awful hissy mean geese everywhere. A fate worse than death.

Bee Hotels for Solitary Bees

You may be wondering what bees need a hotel for, when they make their own hives. The truth is that many species of bees are solitary – the do not live in hives but instead construct their own nest. The main reason for this is because in these species every female is fertile and this would not make for comfortable communal living in a hive.

People ask why I wear a skirt, and when I say I like wearing skirts, people can’t seem to comprehend I’m not doing it for attention. Do they think I eat salad to look slim and sexy to men?

How Tom Daley's Public Announcement Turned Into #BisexualFacts:

leahhgates:

I’m not always a fan of hashtag campaigns, but in this case, too much fun was going on for me to maintain my usual stodgy position on such matters.

Sunday Funday, #bisexualfacts is my favorite thing on the planet right now.

“A monogamous bisexual experiences wave function collapse and becomes gay or straight once observed. #bisexualfacts”

I’m dying.
