Humanimals

In this day and age of ubiquitous ennui, with the internet making every tidbit of info you ever wanted to know immediately available, I'm beginning to think that the only things that will surprise and amaze me are the crazy shit that humans themselves will come up with. I was actually wrong, see previous entry. Have you spent much time thinking what the term "post-Furry" means?* You don't have to anymore. Andrew Hussie has taken this to the next level.

Shit just got real.

Is this NSFW? I don't think it is, technically, but you'd have a really hard time explaining it to your boss.

This one's the best.

There's actually only 20 of these comics but I think that's probably enough.

Nature's most bizarre creations

This website is exactly why I started this blog.

From a collection of Lovecraftian creatures to traumatic insemination, this site features creatures so strange you'll want to siphon SETI's budget to deep sea exploration.

Can you believe this??? I'm so happy to live in a world where Mother Nature can still shock me.

Here's a sample:

Despite looking like a Japanese tentacle rape about to happen, that is a Glaucus Nudibranch; a sea slug that swims the ocean like a fish, and eats the tentacles off of Portuguese Man Of Wars. I'll let that sink it; the deadly siphonophores mentioned earlier in the list? These things eat them. And what's better? They store the nematocysts; the stinging cells, to use for their own defense. Imagine you could eat bullets and shoot them out later without a gun; it's kind of like that.

P.S. I am totally terrified of that naked chimp. Uncanny Valley!
