Cool heels

Okay I also meant to post these 100 years ago and just remembered. This horse is a polydactyl on ALL FOUR feet which is the coolest thing ever, and I think about him at least once a day. Polydactyly in horses originates from one of the splint bones, which are remnants of toes from the ancestors of our modern horses. It typically does not bother them, so long as the extra hooves are trimmed, although sometimes they interfere with the other legs. Most often they are surgically removed when the horse is a foal for aesthetic reasons. Not this cool little guy though!

For the first time ever, stygiomedusa gigantea, a gigantic jellyfish was caught on video by scientists in the Gulf of Mexico. There have only been 115 sightings of this deep sea jellyfish in the past 110 years.

“I have too many books,” said no nerd ever.

Or actually, we say it a lot, yet we keep buying more anyway. So today, we’d like to introduce you to our brand new “Books” section!

From artistic Ankylosaurus to zany Zygosaurus, @davidorogenic‘s “Mammoth is Mopey” features a whimsical cast of prehistoric animals familiar and obscure.

More books, both physical and digital, are on their way. Stay tuned!

DRYP - an app that keeps your plants alive and happy

Hi Tumblr!

I know I’ve been gone for a while.

In part it’s because I’ve been working on an app!

I keep a lot of plants. I think everyone should!

- They clean your air - They give you something to name - They give you something to take care of - They teach you about care, needs, and resources - They make you look like you’re good at decorating

Here are some of mine:

But some people, because they’re overwhelmed or simply can’t figure out how to start, think that plants are out of their reach.

DRYP is for newcomers and experts.

It reminds you when to water

And it helps you fix what’s broken

If you think the world would be better with this app in it, please consider contributing to the Kickstarter!

I’ve tried to make it worth your while:

Again here’s the link to contribute:

“In Japan, we practice something called forest bathing, or shinrin-yoku. Shinrin in Japanese means “forest,” and yoku means “bath.” So shinrin-yoku means bathing in the forest atmosphere, or taking in the forest through our senses.”

Sharp Objects is so unlike anything in media ever done (book and show) cause Hollywood is truly pussies and afraid to write women THAT complex.

you think about the theme of violence in this show and how it’s all about women and you look at Adora and Amma specifically, but also think about Camille. she’s violent like her mom and sister too, she just didn’t take it out on others, on innocent kids. she took it out on herself, on her body, for years and years and years…and it’s tragic.

Gillian Flynn wrote something so unseen, in my opinion, with her female characters, and I just appreciate her so much for her work
