welcome to the hadopelagic zone

it's actually so crazy how much the simpsons would fucking suck if it didn't have any of the simpsons characters. just a bunch of shots of empty houses and streets for half an hour while nothing happens. that would be so badddd lol

yeah that tends to happen when you remove characters from media. without characters its all just background. i guess movies set in scenic locations would still land as kinda nature docs but even then

it only happens with the simpsons

this same criticism could be applied to nearly any media ever.

it's just the simpsons. are you a troll?

The axe forgets. The tree forgets. The squirrels in the forest forget. Nobody remembers

#This is the representation I’ve been looking for

check out the mourning doves’ new single “hooOOOO hoo hoo hoo” if you get the chance. sound of the summer.

I just find it really weird that all of my trans focused posts EXCEPT for the nonbinary focused posts tend to pop off. Like the fact that I'm trans is negated by the fact that I'm nonbinary to some people.

imagine someone thinking of you and buying you flowers

ok now imagine a horse as a skeleton with a blue fire mane

“can men be lesbians” well see some of them are is the thing

fundamentally this is the core of every single fuckass identity discourse on this website. it doesn’t really matter if you think someone can be something or not if there are people who actively are that thing. its not even proving you wrong so much as it is “well i know a bigender lesbian guy so obviously they can and do exist”

marine biology is so fucked up you might see incomprehensible eldritch horrors such as a wet bug or a fish with big teeth or a different wet bug or even some kind of glowing worm. stay fucking safe out there

I'm just saying, if you're going to worldbuild magic being a "raw, primal force, akin to and interweaving with nature itself" you gotta explain to me why animals don't use it

I know the normal answer is "they just aren't smart enough for it" but idk I've seen enough media where a character uses a spell in a moment of brain-off panic ilI feel like animals could probably stumble into a spell or two like, accidentally

Also how funny would it be to see a completely normal regular bear cast magic missile outta nowhere

Dogs can also cast Magic Missile but every time they do the projectile is shaped like a bone or a stick and they chase after it

group of wizards who ask this in-universe, and after extensive study learn to their surprise that animals are casting spells all the time, just that their magic is so fundamental as to be unrecognizable to humans. turns out the only reason acorns grow on trees is because squirrels keep wishing for them.

When a species becomes extinct humans have to figure out what kind of magic they were doing to keep the ecosystem from becoming out of balance
