Under the circumstances i will not be thank u

My little pritty forest Trex. She likes to sunbath and take long walks around her territory.

Flamingos can survive in low oxygen, high altitude, high temperatures, low temperatures, high alkaline, they can and will drink boiling water and they can be completely frozen at night and still get up the next morning

(animal death) this is a real undoctored photograph (*though the body was stood up for the shot) of a dead flamingo on the surface of lake natron, a lake so salty and so alkaline that it’s naturally carbonated like soda and would eat through your stomach lining if you drank from it.

When this photo went viral years ago, most people assumed this poor flamingo must have been killed by the lake.

It is actually the lake where 75% of its global population are hatched. This is a photo from the same lake:

OP: "Decarbonized formaldehyde is great. Just wash daikons with decarbonized formaldehyde and they turn white."

"Decarbonized formaldehyde" (脫碳甲醛) is an online phrase used to make fun of people that blindly avoid chemicals. Formaldehyde (H2CO) decarbonized is water (H2O).

Bc so many ppl focus on the idea of telling A Trusted Adult, but even a well-meaning individual can fuck up and let abuse fall through the cracks or not know what to do

Whereas if a child tells LOADS of adults AND other kids, there's far less opportunity for an abuser to do damage control

Consistently telling their story and spreading it around disempowers the abuser to control and coerce the flow of information, or to utilise gaps and weaknesses in systems of reporting or welfare to isolate the child

At its core, it's all about the golden rule. If you were injured, sick, disabled, and/or elderly and had a neighbor willing to help you with a task you were (currently) struggling with, wouldn't you want the sliver of relief that could bring you?

But in addition, doing small acts of kindness for your neighbors can reap a lot of benefits in the long term. It pays to be on friendly terms with the people who live around you. When you're locked out of your apartment, your phone is either dead or locked in the apartment, and anyone you live with won't be home for hours, these are the people who could help you in such a situation. Or when your car battery is dead and you need a jump. Or when you slip and fall and hurt yourself walking up to your door. Or any countless number of scenarios where you could use help from someone who lives by you.
