centaurs have six limbs and are therefore insects. discuss.
Oh. This. I don’t like this.
#not enough distinct body parts#insects have three#arachnids on the other hand have two#therefore i propose that centaurs are actually spiders hiding a pair of legs somewhere
this is worse
jade how did you manage to make this worse

Instead I propose that insects are arthropod centaurs.

Anchorage Resident Tim Newton Awoke To The Sound Of Something Running Across His Deck
“Tim was awakened by noises on our deck last week - and looked outside. In astonishment, he grabbed his camera.. and can you believe it? Mama Lynx and her SEVEN kits!! She called to them and they all lined up right outside in front of where he was standing (he was inside the screen door!) Amazing ALASKA WILD LIFE!!! They proceeded to run and play on our deck, and then in our yard.”
It’s a good thing that I never did become a Food Blogger™
because the culture is just so uniformly “heteronormative married religious mommy” that it’d be impossible for me to network with anyone in that culture to promote my brand.
Aka this is what a brief scroll through my blog would be like:
This cupcake recipe reminds me of a cute girl with spiky blue hair and flower tattoos that I saw at a coffee shop once on a road trip.
I love this no-bake recipe because it’s great for teaching kids but also this is why I should never have biological children. On a side note: Vaccinate your kids!
Here’s a fruity rum drink recipe that reminds me of partying until 2 AM at queer night clubs.
Spicy baby-back ribs. Grill. Doooo eeet.

A sugar is a sugar is a sugar and refined fructose really ain’t good and yes I’m hating on agave nectar and arsenic-infused brown rice syrup since people keep thinking they’re acceptable substitutes for HFCS
If You Think Ketchup Is Spicy Then We Can’t Be Friends - a love note to capsaicin in five parts, including a video of me drinking a shot of tabasco while maintaining full eye contact and openly weeping
EVERYTHING YOU EAT IS CHEMICALS thank you. My mom has a PhD in biology and the ‘organic non gmo’ stuff drives her nuts.
“Did it come from the ground?”
“Yes?”
“IT’S ORGANIC”
just saying i’d follow the fuck out of this food blog.
Tailor of Gloucester by Beatrix Potter from the Cooper-Hewitt National Design Museum Library’s Rare Book Collection on Juvenile Literature.
Beatrix Potter’s work, while already considered in the Public Domain in the United States, entered the public domain in Europe this year, 70 years after her death.
On this side of the pond, nothing new will enter the Public Domain until 2019, due to a 1998 law increasing copyright to 95 years or more for works published after 1923.
We missed a post on Public Domain Day, the first of the year, but wanted to shed a little light on the topic, regardless. Find out more at the Duke Center for the Study of the Public Domain.
