To a homophobe, even the most chaste kiss on the cheek between gay people is exactly as disgusting and degenerate as a hardcore BDSM orgy hosted in the town square, so you may as well ally with the BDSM orgy enthusiasts to throw bricks at the cops who are going to try and arrest all of you together anyway.

the bigfin squid

yeah, this guy - you've probably seen this video, and it is most definitely real.

they're cephalopods (which means "head-feet" in greek), just like octopuses. their arms and tentacles (which create an appendage that looks quite like an elbow) are thought to be 13ft to 26ft (4m to 8m) long.

we know very little else about them. but keep reading, and i'll tell you what we do know.

they were first recorded in 1907, but the specimen didn't offer much information as to what was actually being looking at. in the 1980s we got a few more specimens, researched by michael vecchione and richard young. they were all young and without long arms, so the mantle length looked huge on them (hence the name!). they then declared the new family magnapinnidae for the big fin squid.

the sightings are much more interesting.

they were first visually seen by submersible (similar to a submarine) nautile in 1988, off the coast of north brazil, at a depth of 15,535ft (4,735m), which is quite far into the abyssal zone (abyssopelagic) of the deep sea - it is pitch black down there.

six more were seen between 1988 and 2000, but all the footage was pretty short and blurry, so the media didn't really care. however, in 2001, the rov tiburon got some fantastic footage in hawaii, and it gained a lot of attention.

anatomically, they are really unique compared to other cephalopods, namely due to the lengths of the arms and tentacles and the "elbows". furthermore, scientists have no idea how they feed: they're guessing that either the squid drag their arms and tentacles along the seafloor and grab organisms, or that they wait for prey to accidentally go into their arms and then trap them there - not terrifying at all.

and that's all we know! thank you for reading this far, here's an extra pic of this absolute hell-spawn.

"it's so fucking over" yeah dude it's 11pm it's the end of the day it's time for you to go to bed. and tomorrow you'll be so fucking back because you'll be awake. go tuck yourself in dude you'll be ok

If it was just about Hamas, why are Palestinians in the West Bank, which isn’t controlled by Hamas, getting attacked?

If it was just about Hamas, why shut off water electricity and food that would harm the civilians the most?

If it was just about Hamas, why use white phosphorus and engage in chemical warfare?

If it was just about Hamas, why lie about babies being decapitated and produce AI generated images to try to prove that?

We need to start asking serious questions. Of course no one wants any civilian deaths but if you are constantly asking “okay but what about Hamas your supporting Hamas??” You have to see the large structural violence that is a daily reality for Palestinians and as I type this Gaza is being leveled.

In order to show my support for palestine, I thought I would make a post— in typical bird nerd fashion— highlighting some information about one of the many symbols of freedom for the palestinian people: the palestine sunbird.

you’ve seen this bird everywhere lately I’m sure,

so, you may be wondering.. why is this bird so important?

In 2013, Israel campaigned to remove ‘palestine’ from the bird’s name. this failed, however, when the palestine wildlife society (PWS) petitioned to instead adopt it as palestine’s national bird as a direct defiance of the campaign.

in 2015, the palestine sunbird was officially declared the national bird of palestine.

the palestinian artist khaled jarrar designed a border control stamp featuring the sunbird with which he stamped passports as a cry for freedom.

more recently, khaled jarrar has also created these postal stamps for the same message— in defiance of israel’s efforts to erase palestine.

here you can find an incredible, short documentary detailing his work across the years to use his art as a protest against the plight of the palestinian people.

another palestinian artist, rasha eleyan, uses the sunbird in her work as a motif for the strength and boldness of palestinian women:

(source)

the palestinian poet tamim al-barghouti has tied the palestine sunbird’s beauty to resilience, in saying: “whenever you face injustice or roughness, remember to defend yourself by finding beauty… document, prove, and defend it because all beauty is resistance.”

the palestine sunbird is a symbol of hope and strength. It’s a symbol of fighting back against the odds and refusal to go quietly into the night— refusal to be erased.

continue to support palestinian artists.

continue to support palestine.

raise the voices of those who now, more than ever, need to be heard.

from the river to the sea, palestine will be free.
