I don't know if it will still work, but a while back I entered a bunch of profanities as a "name" in my contact list, and ever since I haven't had autocorrect try to change them on me.

A phone contact listing that is variations on the word "fuck" and the word "shit."

Moments in TL synchronicity.

Screenshot of a Guy Gavriel Kay quote post that reads, “The more loudly he screams, the more people (even MAGA people) realize his is screaming. He’s quoting a Patriot Takes posts “Trump claims critics of his Iran deal “are either jealous, bad people, or stupid.”” Featuring a screenshot of a DJT post that reads,

“These fools, who think I haven't been tough enough on Iran, when the Stock Market Just Hit A RECORD HIGH, and Oil prices are "tumbling" down, are either jealous, bad people, or stupid. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!!!”

Underneath it is a Mina Kimes post that says, “DaVinci made some great memes imo” and features a painting of a woman pointing up.

A great egret I spotted this morning. 🪶

A great egret, a large, white heron-like bird, is reflected in a flooded field. Swimming just in front of it is a wood duck.

A great egret re-settles in a new location. Its wings are out but slightly cupped inward, and water can be seen coming off its black legs and feet.

I associate that sentiment with the Calvin and Hobbes comic strip, myself.

Calvin and Hobbes look at the stump of a tree that’s been cut down. Calvin says, “Sometimes I think the surest sign that intelligent life exists elsewhere in the universe is that none of it has tried to contact us.”

Here’s one I saw in 2016 for comparison.

A red-breasted nuthatch—a small bird with a narrow beak that curves slightly upward, white head with a black cap and eye mask, gray body, and burnt orange breast and underside—clings to the left side of a tube bird feeder.

Truth post from Trump: I am pleased to announce that the Highly Respected United States Senator from the Great State of Oklahoma, Markwayne Mullin, will become the United States Secretary of Homeland Security (DHS), effective March 31, 2026. The current Secretary, Kristi Noem, who has served us well, and has had numerous and spectacular results (especially on the Border!), will be moving to be Special Envoy for The Shield of the Americas, our new Security Initiative in the Western Hemisphere we are announcing on Saturday in Doral, Florida. I thank Kristi for her service at “Homeland.”

So like do caterpillars know that they're gonna be butterflies or do they just build the cacoon and be like wtf am l doing

frauleinninia:
this post has fucked me up more than any other on this site

trustedwings:
Okay but no, do you understand what happens to a caterpillar once it's in its cocoon? It completely turns into goo. That's right, GOO. The damn thing dissolves and the reforms into the butterfly.
Even crazier, the wings of the butterfly are already inside the caterpillar, ready to go, just waiting to float around in some goo and then be a beautiful butterfly. The craziest part?!? A study was done where some caterpillars were exposed to a certain smell and then given an electric shock so eventually the caterpillar associated the smell with the shock. Well after those little hairy noodles came out of the their cocoons as butterflies, they exposed them to the smell again and the butterflies reacted super negatively, as if they were being shocked. A.K.A. not only is there wings floating around in that goo cocoon, there is also a brain, the same, unaltered brain as the caterpillar. The butterfly can recall its days as a caterpillar even after basically being turned into soup. And then it all somehow gets its shit together to be a stupid majestic little beast, and I can't even remember where I put my damn phone.

What's even crazier is that I saw that I had already liked this post, and I don't even recall ever reading it.

This chipmunk made a brief appearance at my parents’ place this morning, but we haven’t seen it since. I’d like to think that after it assessed the ongoing snow situation it decided to head back to its den for at least another month. 😉

A chipmunk is barely able to peak its head over the snow, despite appearing to be standing up on its hind legs. It looks vaguely concerned, and I’m hoping when it saw the snow it went right back underground to hibernate some more. At this point of the winter, I’d like to join it.
