Of fuck you, you stupid goddamn science minister. If you put it up for a vote on the Internet, and you don’t get “HMS 420 Moot Fucked Your Mom” as the winner, consider yourself lucky, and honor the fucking vote.

Can someone from the science side of Tumblr please explain what’s going on here?
half of everyone on here 13-30 years old is a meanie mean person but everyone on here i’ve seen older than 35 (which is positively ancient by this site’s standards) has been chill and mellow and i am glad for their peaceful and friendly presence
What about people under 13
why are you on here please don’t ruin yourself that early
Please excuse this long ~semi-related~ addition to your post. Maybe this is just wishful thinking because I recently turned 35 and running @buzzfeed‘s tumblr is literally my job, but 35 isn’t that ancient! I know we all have this notion that tumblr is full of ~youths~ which, like, fair! But there are a lot of us Secret (and Not-So-Secret) Olds here on this beautiful, cursed website.
Here’s the breakdown of age ranges on tumblr (n.b. — This data is from August 2014, but I suspect there hasn’t been an overly drastic change in the data since then. If someone has newer data, pls let me know. This was the best/most recent data set including the under 18 age range that I could find during a quick 5 minute search.):
Chart via @unwrapping, data via @npr / @strle.
ANYWAYS, thanks for liking us Olds.
I honestly didn’t think this was real, so I googled it.
Apparently it is.
I fucking LOVE this man.
First he comes out in defence of teaching evolution over creationism, and now this.
GO GET ‘EM, BILL!!
Holy shit what a BAMF.
ALL MY YES
Really? Cause I took 2 seconds to google “Bill Nye Todd Aikin” and while it’s great to think this happened, it’s definitely a fake quote.
This is why I love Apple lmao

Super cute, except that googling “page 46 of the terms & conditions of the Apple iOS 7 update” shows that this was created for HuffPo Comedy.
this isn’t a normal cat..is it
It’s a Savannah cat! They’re part African serval
As the captions and tags on this Vine indicate, this is an African serval, not a Savannah cat. Servals are a wild, undomesticated species of cats native to (you guessed it!) sub-Saharan Africa. Savannah cats are a cross between servals and domesticated house cats, and are banned as pets in a large portion of the US because they are considered an exotic, undomesticated animal. To use a dog-related analogy, owning a serval is akin to owning a wolf while owning a Savannah cat is akin to owning a wolf/dog hybrid — the latter is permissible in some states of the US in some instances (i.e. a certain number of generations removed from the original serval/domesticated cat crossing.)
So can we talk about the absolutely stunning duplicity going on here?
holy shit
I’m just gonna point out that Reuters created that first graphic.
The thing with statistics - via
Numbers don’t lie but people can sure as fuck pick and choose the numbers they give you and phrase things to make them sound like they mean things they don’t
learn fucking stats or at least how they can hurt
knowing how to interpret statistics is so important
