Animal of the Day!

Humpback Whale (Megaptera novaeangliae)

(Photo from World Wildlife Fund)

Conservation Status- Least Concern

Habitat- Southern Ocean; Northern Pacific Ocean; Northern Atlantic Ocean

Size (Weight/Length)- 36 metric tonnes; 15 m

Diet- Krill; Small fish

Cool Facts- Humpbacks whales are easily identifiable by having the longest flipper in proportion to body length of any whale. Barnacles line the sides of their flippers, making them dangerous weapons that are used to fight off anything from orcas to overly dominant males. Humpbacks only group together during mass feedings and males competing for a female’s attention. During courting, males will show off their strength by breaching two-thirds of their body from the water and splashing back down. They also have a song that can last up to 30 minutes that can further convince a female to undergo an eleven month pregnancy. While humpbacks have multiple different hunting tactics, bubble-net fishing is certainly the most impressive in which a whale, or a group of whales, blows a curtain of bubbles to corral fish or krill for easy pickings. Almost hunted to extinction by the 1970s, mass protection and anti-whaling campaigns have caused their numbers to skyrocket. Today, humpback whales are still threatened by fishing, boat strikes, and human-caused noise.

Rating- 14/10 (A true representation of the majesty of the ocean.)

Flavour

@prongsfoot-microfic @amrut-aa

James is aware that he is making a spectacle of himself. He had opted for both short shorts and a crop top today. His left football sock is sitting firmly on his knee, but the right one has artfully slid down. His brand new aviators aren't all that thick, even with his dioptres, and he is very sure that the cherry flavored lollipop is staining his lips. In front of his teammates he was able to play off the love bite on his inner thigh as a bruise from training, but Sirius should be well aware what really caused it.

James shoulders his trainings bag and bids his teammates goodbye, fully aware that sirius will be already waiting for him outside the training center. James bounds outside, the training not nearly enough to tire him out. If anything it had given him more energy.

The sun bites into his eyes, despite his shades, but it's nothing to the sight of Sirius. Leant against his sleek Bentley, smoking, in black clothes that could be painted onto him. He is a piece of art, the strands of his hair that have fallen out of his bun manage to somehow still move with wind that is not existent for the rest of the world. His full lips form into a flawless o-shape for smoke rings, even as he eyes James. His eyes rest on the bruised thigh for a moment, before they find James' eyes, and Sirius' expression melts into this world-ending, blinding smile of his. Small, cherry flavoured shards scatter in James' mouth - he must have bitten down on his lollipop.

Sirius, the very reason James wants to make a spectacle of himself. He loves to work him up. Sirius, whose expression typically ranges from haughty to bored unless he finds something to truly engage him. With his grandiose ideas, sharp mind, and the most biteable arse the World has ever seen... James bounds up to him and they share a very heterosexual, very manly hug. James has a hard time not to bite into the free shoulder Sirius presents to him like it's nothing, and then has to scramble quickly into the passanger seat, just to hide his hard on from what Sirius whispered into his ear: "that bruise on your thigh looks lonely. I'll make sure there will be more to keep it company"

Whatever sweat James had broken into in training, it's nothing against the drive back to their flat, with Sirius' hand on his thigh, absentmindedly stroking and petting it while driving. Driving the car, and James mad in the meantime.

“It was a straight offer because he’s great and he was the only person in my mind who could do it,” King says. “But because he’s Timothée Chalamet and his life is so absurd, his high school musical performances are on YouTube and have hundreds of thousands of views. So I knew from stanning for Timmy Chalamet that he could sing and dance really well. And I knew that was in his arsenal, but I didn’t know how good he was. When I spoke to him he was quite keen. He’d done tap dancing in high school and he was like, ‘I’d quite like to show people I can do that.’”

-Paul King on casting Timothée Chalamet as Willy Wonka (Rolling Stone, July 11, 2023)

On This Day in Cryptid History

July 11th: In 1972, a group of children claimed to have seen Momo, a fowl smelling Sasquatch like creature seen in Louisiana, Missouri since 1971. Tracks were found around the scene, and were plastered and sent to the director of the Oklahoma City Zoo, who deemed them to be fakes.
