I find it really hard to be bothered by anthro birds having teeth considering that the precursors to birds did originally have teeth, so like, it’s not crazy to imagine that birds who have evolved to human proportions would benefit from returning to growing odontia like raptors, especially if they were needed to break down cooked meat or utilize complex, humanoid language. it’s entirely likely that the protobirds who would eventually become avians with opposable digits and verbal language split off from “wild/feral” birds before teeth were lost as an adaptation, and any markings or bioforms similar to smaller birds are a case of convergent evolution.

hi trans people i hope you get to live. i hope you get to laugh so fucking loud and revel in how the wind blows through your hair and i hope you get to dress the way you like and i hope you get complimented on it. i hope you get to kiss someone or hug someone or hold hands with someone or be told how wonderful you are. i hope you get to dance to weird music and i hope you go swimming with no concerns other than how much sunscreen to put on and i hope you sing bad karaoke with your friends. i hope a kid spots you from across the road and realizes they don't have to live one way forever. i hope we all live

theo van gogh was the one who suggested that his older brother vincent start seriously painting. as soon as theo was gainfully employed he gave vincent around 15% of his own yearly salary for art supplies, lodging, and food. about 2/3rds of vincent's surviving letters were to theo (including vincent's earliest and last letters), all of which were found stored in theo's desk. theo's child, vincent willem, was born on january 31st, 1890, and vincent was so delighted by his nephew that he painted almond blossoms for him. vincent shot himself half a year later on july 29th, 1890. theo's distress at his brother's death worsened his syphilis symptoms and he died half a year after his brother on january 25th, 1891 (four days before vincent willem's first birthday). theo was reburied next to vincent in auvers-sur-oise at the request of theo's wife johanna.

probably feels good af to latch your jaws onto someone and not let go

this is what prank youtubers and content creators should have been doing this whole time instead of harassing minimum wage service employees at fast food restaurants
