My pechfriend made this account for me

Well, technically it's not new : it's a nurse shark. What's new, however, is that it's the first xanthic (imagine albinism but in yellow) nurse shark ever found !! Not only it's not common AT ALL to find fishes with xanthism (it's the first cartilagenous fish ever recorded with this type of genetic "anomally"), but if it's there and still existing as an adult, it means the species is chill-ish with other predators (it probably would have been eaten by then). Its eyes are white so it can also be a form of albinism, in addition to xanthism !!!!!

And most of all : ITS SO CUTE !! AND IT'S SUCH A COOL FIND !!

Please if a marine biologist or someone with more info can interact with this post to feed me some more info or correct me on wrong infos i'e given I'd love it !

Deltarune is one of THE most important parts of me accepting myself as nonbinary.

I've always struggled with being queer, with alternating periods of suppressing it and accepting it, never officially coming out in public.

I've identified as nonbinary on and off since 2021; and in 2024, after trying to live as my AGAB for a whole year, Seeing Kris made me break down crying.

Like everything in our society feels so binary, so divided between "male" and "female'; and sometimes I wonder if it's worth it to identify this way. Like, maybe I should be a binary trans person, or just cis; because in what world would something else EVER work in the long term?

But in Deltarune, It's totally different. Kris is nonbinary and it's NORMAL. It's FUCKING RIGHT. Nobody misgenders them, or acts weird or makes jabs about "not being able to tell their gender" or "are u a boy or a girl" or ANYTHING at all. It's SO EASY. Their parents, their teachers, their friends, EVERYBODY JUST TREATS THEM LIKE A NONBINARY PERSON.

And it feels so normal, so normal, that it makes worlds with characters in a strict gender binary feel weird and unnatural.

And I WANT TO LIVE IN THAT NORMAL.

That feeling is what makes me love Deltarune so much. I want to protect that world that feels so kind and accepting towards people like me.

Buttttt.... I have to live in the southern United States in 2025.

Whoopee.

I guess that means I have to work hard to try to make our world better for others...... Bluhhhh.... so difficult and scary..........

Anyways in a couple months I'm going to be living at college, and I'm going to try to start living more as myself.

And maybe that'll include having Kris as my preferred name????

Welp I'll try it out for a while, see how it fits!!!

Wow this is super corny lmao

But yea Deltarune is part of what gives me hope as a trans person, and that's a good thing!

Finally, to every LGBTQ+ person who sees this: If you can find hope in something, even if it seems silly, hold onto it. We HAVE to fight hard and outlast the people and systems that try to erase us, even though nobody should need to. Kindness will win in the end, and we have to believe it.

silly hopecore post hahaha!

"Omg, I love these! They go up to size 6X AND they have pockets?! Wow!! But do you have anything longer?" Sure do, no problem!!

"YES these are great!!! But what about.. longer?" I gotcha!! Comin' right up!

"Now that's what I'm talkin' about! But... how about if I'm feeling like it's the kinda day where I need my clothing to be bifurcated???" Never fear, joggers are here!

Make them mad that they've been made fools of, because that right there is an out. A lot of them are going to dig their heels in because if they admit that they were making shit choices then what have they been doing all this time? The sunk-cost fallacy wouldn't allow it.

so with the trump administration doing such a phenomenally horrible job at everything, now is the time to give those conservatives a group to blame. gas prices skyrocketing? trump isn’t following through on his promise to lower gas prices and i’m pretty sure those tariffs he imposed are why! groceries getting way too expensive? trump promised to make them cheaper but he’s doing the opposite!

I live in the fucking Bible Belt. This place is so atrociously red that I am the weirdest person that most of the people I know have ever met.

I’m not even the weirdest person I’ve ever met. But we are few and far between.

And I’m telling you, they are angry about the same exact things we are. They just have a different narrative.

Now, FINALLY, we are coming to a point where there won’t be anyone else to blame properly EXCEPT the people in power.

And nothing, NOTHING, makes these guys listen closer than when you point out it was their special guy who did this to begin with and doesn’t that make you angry? This fucker lied to us!

Us. Not you. Us.

Because they did lie to us even if some of us didn’t buy it.

Make it us, the truck driver and the other guy next to him in the Kroger, against the evil dip shits in power.

That’s how they work.

Make them identify with YOU.

You may look different and like weird books instead of football and have a rainbow pin, but you’re here, in their community, dealing with the same grocery prices.

Make them see that.

And then point them in the right direction.

the whole idea of social security was always that you pay into it your whole life, and then when you retire the government gives you that money back. it’s your money. always has been. like sure technically the money being paid by working age people now is going to the people who are retired now. but social security was started in the 30’s, the people who are collecting benefits now paid into it their whole lives. the idea was to be a retirement savings account that the government keeps safe for you because it’s almost impossible for working class people to save for retirement under capitalism.

One-Of-A-Kind Orange Snowy Owl Leaves Scientists Scratching Their Heads

Wildlife photographer Julie Maggert has been taking pictures of snowy owls for years. So when she heard that a strange, orange-colored snowy owl had been spotted flying around Michigan’s Thumb area, she knew she had to see the bird for herself. Maggert drove two hours out to where the owl had been observed. Before long, she spotted her in the middle of a field. She couldn’t believe her eyes — she really was orange...
