Im sorry I laughed at this

scully and her little dog🥺❤️

here is the albino earthworm I found today! it does not look like much at first glance, because there are many earthworms that are normally unpigmented and look much like this one.

but take a closer look at the head and you’ll see that the prostomium—the little lobe that comes off the first segment—is tanylobous, having creases until segment 2. that means it’s genus Lumbricus, which are all usually a dark reddish color!

here is the albino meeting another juvenile, a Lumbricus terrestris. I’m unsure if the albino is L. terrestris or rubellus, and will need to wait for it to grow up to be able to tell.

no matter what it is, it’s a privilege to see and raise this little oddity, I will keep you all updated on its progress!

this is how coworkers communicate

I only hate certain types of fic the same way I hate mosquitos and ticks. Like get these nasty little buggers away from me but also I respect their place in the ecosystem.

sparkle on, mulder! dont forget to give me that tape!

how common is it for people to have crushes on their teachers (% estimate?)

sorry are you under the impression there are hard numbers on this

I really do think it’s just… ironic and depressing that despite how much CC clearly believed he took the Worst Elements out of his conspiracy theory basis for stuff (being the antisemitism, racism and white supremacy stuff) that, on the “spectrum” of UFOlogy and related beliefs, the mytharc still falls hard on the side of what you’d call “dark sider” lore of the Doty-and-Lear variety from the 70s and 80s. Which on one hand kind of figures for a show that’s noir-to-horror as much as it’s anything else, but I wonder if the desire to cling to that is a part of why there’s just barely any effort put into trying to reckon with a lot of even the most basic details around shadow governments and eugenics.
