Ever needed to hear about mad dad birds with enormous feet? Try THESE on for size:

image

What’s that you say? These are clearly the feet of a dinosaur, not a bird? WHY NOT BOTH?

image

This is Australia’s very own dinosaur, the second-largest bird in the world, the emu. Say hi!

image

They roam around Australia making ‘wonk-wonk’ noises under their breath and glaring at everything. And the dads take care of the babies! They sit on the eggs…

image

They look after the tiny stripey adorable things….

image
image

They look after the less tiny less adorable things…

image

And they even look after the great big menacing things that are almost as big as they are.

image

But here’s the catch. All emus look pretty much alike. Especially when you are a tiny stripey adorable thing. All you can see of your dad is is great big dinosaur feet (see picture #1). So there is one very unrealistic thing about all the adorable terrifying dinosaur family photos above:

I have never seen an emu family in the wild where all the babies are the same size.

Here is the reason!

Emu dad and his emu babies are roaming about wonking and glaring at everyone. Suddenly emu dad sees another emu dad! A threat!

image

Emu dads do some display threats with dancing and bouncing and fluffing and… look, it’s very serious business, okay?

image

If this does not work to see off one emu they might progress to actual fighting.

image

Oops, sorry, you wanted the dignified version. Here, have some ART:

image

MAGNIFICENT.

Either way, this encounter will end up with one or both adult emus zooming away as fast as he can run. This is very fast.

image

This is the other thing they do besides wonking and glaring, by the way. They run. Fear the running emu.

Anyway, this leaves all the tiny and medium-sized and semi-large stripey things milling around making confused tiny “cheep? wonk?” noises and basically just following whichever pair of large feet they can find.

image

HI DAD

And so mostly when you see a male emu with a gaggle of youngsters at heel, they are all different sizes. Who knows whose they are? Not him! But he’s going to look after them anyway.

image

Fear him.

*evo-psych voice* and this, you see, is why men are particularly suited to nursing and childcare work. As we see in the wild, for instance with emus, paternal instincts run deep and often over-ride blood ties and competitive instinct!

Christian Group Admits To Sending Men Into Women’s Bathrooms To Scare You Into Hating Trans People

This is what happens when you mix bigotry and organized religion. Of all the things to push from your faith and you choose this?

I’ve read the argument that it “doesn’t matter” that bi organizations get little to no funding because the money given to gay & lesbian organizations will “trickle down” to help bi people and uh, thanks gay Ronald Reagan but your shitty opinion on this isn’t fucking needed while our community is suffering right now.

Re: Monosexual and allosexual

wetwareproblem:

The only argument I see consistently raised here that isn’t blatantly lying is “It groups us with our oppressors!” This overwhelmingly comes from cis LG folks.

Let’s take that argument at face value: Okay, nobody should ever have to be grouped with their oppressors. Does this mean that you’ll be decamping from a movement founded by trans women and built by bi women?

Or did you mean that only you should be exempt from this grouping?

“Yes, but that’s still a minority! If more women played video games, there would be more reason to have female protagonists!”

I love him, this is beautiful.

Suddenly wondering why more long-haired dudes don’t do awesome updos to get their hair out of their faces for red carpet suff.

Oh, right. Ridiculous gender roles.

Sara’s said that he also paints his nails for premieres, and I have found pictures online that confirm his nails went with this outfit. He might be one of my new favorites.

I love it when anyone in the public eye just cheerfully fucks gender roles right over.

#he looks like the most dapper of hobbits

HE LOOKS ADORABLE

yes!
Seriously, why don’t more men actually style their hair and show a bit more personality. It would even out the red carpet a bit.
John Boyaga is doing it with his fabulous suits, Elden Henson’s doing it with his hair.

If you think you’ve never met a queer/trans person, maybe you should examine why no one feels safe telling you.

honestly the most annoying thing about this website is that unless you write out every single detail about your personal life everyone just likes to assume that u live a happy, pleasant, worry-free life without struggling with anything that could possibly hold you back and it’s like??? i’m not about to list everything about my mental health in extensive detail or provide y’all with medical history but it costs zero dollars to mind your own business and not assume someone’s a-okay just because it’s not listed in their fucking tumblr description
