This Is Some Sort Of Mood

Thinking about the history of Prussia and shaking my head in disbelief

[Video of venerable TV naturalist David Attenborough standing amid vegetation.  On a near-horizontal branch above his head is a brown and yellow greater bird of paradise, about the size of a crow, with big floaty yellow plumage puffing out along its back.]

having pet stick bugs is fun because every so often i will hear the distinct sound of several stick bug falling and ill go to check on them and find them all in a pile on the ground of their enclosure and i have to figure out if theyve just decided that its floor time now or if they kept mistaking each other for actual sticks again and bundled together the ceiling until gravity got the best of them.

lil unboxing (unbagging?) of my new friend Winston! made the amazing and lovely @elbowsmelbow !! isn’t he wonderful!!

too cool to jerk off to pictures of women with impossible hip to waist ratios yet not cool enough to jerk off to the concept of being killed, the rōnin pervert wanders this land in search of a slightly-higher-concept yet not totally abstract form of fetish posting

Having any mildly popular post is fun because you get to see people in your notifications having insane and wildly off-topic conversations in the reblogs and it’s so hard to not pop in and be like “hey what the fuck are you talking about”
