Parents: If We Take You Drinking Do You Promise Not To Talk About Anime Science For One Fucking Night?

Tumblr Code.

To put it another way… the guy who commissioned ahegao Mufasa got exactly that: Mufasa drawn in a perfect imitation of the Lion King style doing an ahegao face. The guy who paid for the NFT asked for “a piece of art no one could ever replicate because I’m a very special boy and also I don’t care how bad this is for the environment” and got an ahegao lion. He’s not even into that, that we know of, and if he is, I bet it would have been much cheaper to just commission the Mufasa artist instead. It’s clear who’s the winner here.

Ok so, I saw someone wearing crocs today and I got cursed flash backs to our discussion about dias croc wall, and I think we need to share this with the general public

Oh dear. The time has come. Please fasten your seatbelts because this is going to be one hell of a ride.

Well ladies, gentlemen, and everyone else in between.

Today is the day you all learn about:

Lord Diavolo and his obsession with croc shoes.

Warning: You may laugh hysterically. I couldn't keep it together writing this.

I'd like to begin by saying this all came about because of this picture right here, created by the lovely @nia23. Thank you for the pain and laughter this has caused me.

Let us begin, shall we?

This began with the pink crocs. A fitting choice for the prince of Devildom.

However, this is not the only pair of crocs he would own. Oh no. He owns a whole wall.

To make things more fun. Lord Diavolo also has the little croc charms. There is no doubt in my mind that he also owns one of the Lucifer on a unicorn emote.

As a Prince, and one with possible unlimited finances, there's a very high chance he has multiple drawers full of those little charms.

He also wears his crocs everywhere, opting for them over normal shoes.

You think he doesn't have a pair for every occasion? Wrong.

He wears them to meetings with the elders, flaunting his disastrous shoes by putting his feet on the table and explaining each and every charm to them.

Yes, he wears them in his demon form too.

Now let's get into the fun stuff.

Upon Lucifer's fall with his brothers, Lord Diavolo strolled up in his neon green crocs. Absolutely impossible to miss.

Too embarrassed to tell the truth, Diavolo tells everyone that Lucifer's first words in Devildom were about the soil, while they were in fact "what in the fuck are those?" as he pointed to the prince's feet.

The first outfit that the prince gave Lucifer upon his time in Devildom, included his very own pair of crocs.

Turning to Barbatos, he uttered the words "how far into the depths of hell have I fallen?"

A sigh, and a disappointed look from the butler, as he replied "too far." Lucky Barbatos was able to hand him a normal pair of shoes.

Unfortunately not everyone had been as lucky as the eldest. Lucifer's brothers also got their first pair of crocs.

Asmodeus was hit with it the worst. Crying not only because of his fall, but because he now thought he would have to wear crocs for all eternity. Lucifer eventually got him normal shoes.

Diavolo tried to cheer him up by gifting the newly fallen angel with yet another pair of crocs. This time they came with Asmo's name, spelled out in charms. Asmo locked himself in his room for a week, crying, and unsuccessfully attempting to burn the fire-resistant shoe.

The prince still sends him more charms in attempt to please him. It doesn't work.

They now all have multiple sets, in varying colors. None of which are worn. Or seen. Ever.

Though, Lucifer once had to wear his out in public with the prince. He cried that night when he returned to his room, shameful that he ever had to be seen in them.

Barbatos once tried to rid the prince of his horrific shoes. He now has to count every pair each morning and night to reassure the young lord that not a single shoe is missing. They now haunt his dreams. Literally.

He has even checked every timeline, but they're all the same. Every. Single. One.

The young lord actually found them in a human magazine. Barbatos ordered them as a joke to show him how unflattering they were. Now they have cursed him.

This is now the inside of Lord Diavolo's closet, and everyone has to see it when they come to Devildom. No, you don't have a choice. His racks are also gold, just in case you were wondering.

My work here is complete. I hope you enjoyed. You may unfasten your seatbelts and watch your step as you exit.

So are you going to tell us about the giant hyperpredatory sperm whales or do I have to go google some nightmares myself?

we’re all familiar with the Sperm Whale of our modern seas, largest of the Toothed Whales! it’s also completely specialized for eating squid and squid ONLY, a comfort to anyone who’s ever managed to get just a bit too close to those enormous razor jaws.

but this was very much not always the case! the earlier members of the Sperm Whale lineage were much less… discerning.

early Sperm Whales all resembled our friendly modern swimming school bus to some degree, but the main difference was in the jaws- early Sperm Whales like Acrophyseter and Zygophyseter all had wide, powerful jaws with ENORMOUS teeth suitable for snacking on fish, dolphins, aquatic sloths, and pretty much anything else they could fit down their enormous gullets, kind of like a modern Orca.

and from 12 to 7 million years ago, these things RULED the seas. Megalodon who?

but the greatest of these was Livyatan Melvillei, which was the size of our modern Sperm Whale. 

reaching up to 60 feet long and weighing well over 60 tons, it this thing was a Sea Monster in every sense of the word. 

it is so BONKERS huge that they named it after the Hebrew name for the Biblical Leviathan (and also Herman Melville, who would have gotten a real kick out of it). I cannot overstate how unsafe it would be to share an ocean with this thing. Moby Dick would have been an entirely different book if it was still around. 

so what does a 60-feet hyperpredatory whale eat?

*Groucho Marx voice* WHY, ANYTHING IT WANTS. 

(but mostly other whales.)

Livyatan spent most of its time cruising around looking for delicious smaller whales to shove into that nightmare maw up there, a lifestyle choice we call macroraptorial. though in a pinch, anything else would also do. 

(basically, if you were a mid-sized baleen whale in the paleozoic seas you were just SHIT out of luck, between Megalodon and this thing.)

Livyatan may have died out as little as 5 million years ago, meaning it might even have been around to make the early ancestors of Orcas regret their life choices! (Livyatan is the only animal that could possibly make an Orca regret anything, but God, at what cost)

but die out they did, and that’s probably a good thing for us. why don’t we all just take a moment to really appreciate our modern hyperspecialized Sperm Whales, especially the part where they don’t eat us!

Actually, amab non binary people are super cool and hot and they can do whatever the fuck they want.

I’ve seen multiple people genuinely asking whats wrong with playing their music on a speaker/their phone in public rather than through headphones. While it baffles me that you can’t reason it out I’m taking it in good faith that you genuinely don’t know - so here’s a list of reasons you shouldn’t:

- It sounds bad. It doesnt matter if people like the song, you might be close enough to your phone speaker for it to sound largely as intended, but everyone else is getting a distorted mess. 

- Unwanted noise is extra stimulation in the already overpowering public space. Yes this is particularly bad for neurodivergent people but I actually want to acknowledge that this effects Everyone. Everyone has a stimulation threshold and unwanted music easily pushes people closer to it.

- Its distracting/disruptive. People want to focus on their own conversations, listen to their own music through their earbuds, or just be alone with their thoughts. Your music is intruding. 

- Differing taste. This one is less significant but people around you just dont always like the same music you do. In extreme cases they might actively hate a song you’re playing. 

- People have the right to as close to silence as they can get. If they’re in a shop playing obnoxious music they can leave, they can change the radio in their car, they can skip the song on their playlist. They have no control over what you are putting on and in bus situations they can’t get away from you. 

- Any other number of reasons; Maybe your music is offensive, maybe its uncensored and there are children about, maybe someone just got horrible news and your perky feelgood song feels like salt in the wound, maybe someone’s sick or hungover or in pain and your music feels like a drill to the skull.  You might think your music is good, it might make you smile after a hard day. Nobody is saying dont listen at all, just put in earphones. To everyone around you its the equivilent of a drunk guy singing loudly and off key at the back of the bus. Maybe it makes some people smile to think he’s having a good time, maybe some people are scared his lack of boundaries will mean he could act out, maybe some people wish he would just shut up.
