#a perfect reaction image #oddly specific tagsToday I learned that the university of Coimbra in Portugal has a great 18th-century library, the Biblioteca Joanina, that maintains a colony of bats to effectively control the population of paper-eating insects called papirรณfagos. These bats are less than an inch long. They roost during the day behind the bookcases and come out at night. There doesnโt seem to be any English word for papirรณfago, a cursory search turns up no details about what sort of insect they are, and ngl I am slightly concerned about them as a phenomenon. But I think my overarching point here is clear:ย
I’m here for tiny bats saving books.
Aaaahhh!!
What good and noble tiny flitters!!!! <3
My nayme is Batt
And wen its nite
On sylente wings
I flye to fite
The lybrarie’s
My battlefielde
Papir’fagoes
Haffe to be killed
My foes emerge
From payper nooks
I eate them all
I sayve the books
The fact that the villain in Princess Redive anime absorbs ?souls? through her cleavage is almost certainly someone’s kink doesn’t make it any less horrifying in execution.
I think its the fact the shades of people defeated by her monsters appear in her throne room rather than her going out looking for it that gives it the most terror and harder to joke about? [personal opinion]
…you know that honestly feels like some folktale legend or something? I mean there are monstrous elderly ghosts out there that smother children with their breasts in Malaysian folklore.
Heh, I guess some people find breasts terrifying like how Yoshimitsu Banno made Hedora’s eyes resemble vaginas because he thought they looked scary
[photo X-PLUS Hedorah toy, by X-PLUS, showing off Hedorah’s eyelids].
Alternatively, perhaps it was meant to be flowing into her heart but well…hard to illustrate that with ample bossom, and having it flow into her left breast would look even worse.
I feel like I’ve said this before, but I don’t think I have on Tumblr.
Anyway, if Hedorah’s eyes are meant to resemble vaginas, then based on some anatomy charts, Hedorah firing its eye-beams from the top of its vagineyes means that it’s a clitoris laser.
I wonder what this means when you consider it in light of the reveal that Final Wars Hedorah’s weird red finger marks him as a male, implicitly implying that Showa Hedorah was female. Probably nothing, but still…
This is it, the best news story (from BBC news):
Ok, so here is the croissant that started all this mess:
When asked about what kind of animal might it be, the woman said: "It's this, oh, what is it called... A lagun!"
The devil works fast, but The Krakow Animal Welfare Society works faster:
They already made a merchandise with an illustration of the lagun - they posted information about it on Facebook on Tuesday evening and by the Wednesday morning everything was already sold out.
My university professors are so delighted about this story that they are writing tons and tons of limericks, moskaliks and lepiejs (those two last genres are very popular, ridiculous and humorous types of short poems, in last decades popularized by Wisลawa Szymborska) and posting them on official Facebook pages of our university departments, and I am dying of laughter.
Important update on the story: owners of cafés and bakeries in Kraków realized that this wonderful idiocy that took over the country could bring them profit and help animals, and started selling croissants labeled as laguns: i.e. Massolit Café & Bakery is sending 10% of income from selling laguns to the Krakow Animal Welfare Society. Thankfully laguns are selling like hotcakes and bakeries don't plan to stop making them, so the story that started and could quickly die as just another seasonal nonsense transformed into a tool for helping small, helpless, vulnerable creatures, far less dangerous than vicious lagun.
This is how cyptids get started.
It’s also *exactly* the kind of story behind the invention of new pastries. If there’s some little change on the ingredient level that can make a “lagun” distinct from an ordinary croissant, then a new pastry will have been born, complete with fanciful cookbook-ready lore.
Queued up for April 15, 2024 the 3rd anniversary of the Krakowski Lagun.
obsessed with this actually
WHY DIDNT THEY TEACH ME THAT IN SCHOOL. I HAVE AN ASSOCIATES IN SCIENCE. GODDAMN IT
IT’S THE FUCKING WHAT
PRO TIP, LIFE TIP
I’LL KEEP THIS IN MIND FOR CLASS
I remembered this and got an extra question right on my test yay.
I am not a numbers person but this is something I need to save for a character who knows things about numbers to say.
no, listen, when I say I want to integrate more specific solarpunk stuff in my life, i don’t mean to ask for yet again new “aesthetic” clothes that now you have to buy or make to show your support of the movement (screw that i’m consuming enough as it is), or more posts about impossible house goals, or whatever, I’m asking you what my options to build a portable and eco friendly phone charger are, im asking you viable tiny-appartment edible plants growing tricks on a budget, im asking tips to slow down when my mind and society tell me im not fast enough, i don’t need more rich art nouveau amateurs aesthetics or pristine but cold venus project, okay, i know i should joins associations where I am tho i’m constantly on the move, thanks for that, just, you know, can we get a bit more practical ??? how do I hack my temporary flat into going off the grid for the time i’m here
Hello! ☀️ Here are a few practical suggestions for stuff you can do:
Hope you find something useful in there! I post stuff up from time to time under my diy tag. Feel free to drop me a message if you have any requests!
Shortly before Jorts, there was Craig.

[It’s the most spooktacular time of the year, so I’m going to be celebrating the end of October with more monsters based on SF, fantasy and horror movies. First up is a tribute to all of the films that couldn’t afford stop motion, so they glued some crap to a lizard and called it a dinosaur. The Greek root atelo, by the way, means “inadequate, defective”]
Atelosaurus
CR 9 N Animal
This creature appears to be a
lizard the size of an elephant. Horns grow from its brow, and its body is
decorated with frills and spines.
Atelosauruses are strange giant lizards native to remote jungles and caves. In these lost worlds, dinosaurs are often still present, and the atelosaurus is mistaken for a true dinosaur by inexperienced observers. Despite the fact that it is “merely” a lizard, however, atelosaurs make for fearsome opponents, and they are more than a match for many dinosaurs in combat.
An atelosaurus is an opportunistic omnivore, consuming plant and animal matter with equal relish. They are capable of surviving for extended periods on relatively little food, making them capable of surviving even in small, isolated habitats like caves and plateaus. After a long fast, atelosauruses prefer meat to increase their metabolisms, making them most dangerous at these times to smaller creatures.
Although an atelosaurus spends most of its life in a solitary state, they gather to mate in the fall. These mating grounds, called scrums, are full of the battling creatures, as the males thrash each other about for the chance at the healthiest females. Such fights can prove fatal for smaller or unlucky males, but mostly end before lethal violence is done.
An atelosaurus grows to thirty feet long and weighs three or four tons. Much variation is possible in the species—different individuals may have different numbers or sizes of horns, frills on the neck or back, or spines growing along the back and tail.

Based on feedback and what’s relatively easy to do, I’m going to go with themed sets for the reruns. First up is one that I’ve covered a lot of ground with: The Past That Wasn’t. So this is going to include retrosaurs, fakeosaurs, trogcestors and other pseudo-paleofauna, as well as a few monsters that I’ve drawn on paleo-themes for inspiration.
Did you invent the term trogcestor? Because that is the perfect name for that creature trope.
Nope! The term “trogcestor” was coined by @dinosaurana and appears first on their tumblr here. It was developed in conjunction with @tyrantisterror, who similarly coined “retrosaur” in its modern monster design usage.
AUDIO! ON!

Video description: a child in pajamas is laying on top of several low shelves, which are covered in a mat and blanket. It is situated in front of a window front, and the sun shines through. There are seven cats in various positions on top of the child, one of them resting between their arms. Extremely loud purring is audible. End video description
