@Zikuto_@Destiny2Team Wait fr?? I didnt see they were touching its stats. It being random rolled would be awesome i was just hoping for a little sauce on the static roll fr
@illPhysics They could have at least given us 150s back but imma choose to be grateful they gave us one final rendition of the goat even if its worse than the previous two 😭
@illPhysics You know thats the first thing we look at when they introduce/reintroduce a handcannon, unfortunately they know how good rico rounds are and they dont wanna give em to us. That change is gonna feel not great on Spare since its stats are so poor but im willing to give it a shot
man if u catch me (or any depressed person im ngl) cooking wholeass proper food in a depressive episode im probably on some last supper shit u need to call the suicide hotline not look at me w fuckin heart eyes
@WillJayW One of my fav artists, Jon Bellion, has this fascinating ability to put a general beat or loop out then mumble a sound in the key he wants to sing it, sometimes with a word or two. Then will evolve both the beat and lyrics to fit the emotions he wants to strike
@roomysdiary I love remembering that dinosaurs also had to deal with massive climate catastrophes like earthquakes, tornados, hurricanes, etc because wym at least one dino got sucked up in a cat 400 storm and flung
Orcas eat great white sharks. They hunt seals, dolphins, and baby whales. They have never killed a single human in the open ocean. Not once, in all of recorded history.
An orca's brain weighs up to 15 pounds. Yours weighs about 3. They have roughly double the brain cells we do in the regions that handle complex thought. A neuroscientist at Emory named Lori Marino put an orca brain in an MRI and found these animals can tell different species apart underwater. They do it by sending out clicks that bounce off everything around them and come back as a kind of 3D sound map (this is called echolocation). From 500 feet away, an orca knows you're a human and not a seal. It skips you on purpose.
The answer is culture. Orcas around the world are divided into at least 10 separate populations, each with its own food rules, its own language, and its own way of hunting. All of it learned from their mothers. One population eats only fish. Another eats only marine mammals like seals and sea lions. These two populations can live in the exact same water and never swap a single meal. A baby orca learns what food is from its mother, and that list stays the same for life.
In the Pacific Northwest, one population called the Southern Residents eats almost nothing but Chinook salmon. Scientists have documented them killing harbor porpoises 78 times over six decades, carrying the dead porpoises in their mouths, and never once eating them. Even when the group was starving. A 2023 study in Marine Mammal Science looked at all 78 cases and concluded it was play. These orcas would rather go hungry than eat something their culture says isn't food.
Researchers studying whale behavior in 2001 found that orca cultural traditions "appear to have no parallel outside humans." Each family group has its own dialect, its own version of the language. Calves spend about two years just learning how to make all the sounds their family uses. Mothers will slow down a hunt on purpose so their young can watch.
In 2005, a 12-year-old kid was swimming in Helm Bay, Alaska when an orca came at him full speed. At the very last second, the orca seemed to realize it was charging a human. It bent its entire body in half and turned back to open water. In captivity, it goes differently. SeaWorld's Tilikum killed three people during his life in a concrete tank. Research from 2016, published in the journal Animals, traced it to psychological collapse from being locked away from the family bonds orcas need to stay stable.
I think calling this a "mystery" undersells the science. Orcas decide what to eat based on culture, not instinct. No orca mother has ever taught her calf to hunt humans, so no orca hunts humans. Only about 75 of those salmon-eating Southern Residents are still alive. Their pregnancy failure rate is 69% because we've destroyed their salmon runs. They won't break their food culture to survive. Whether we care enough to protect theirs is the part that actually matters.
april is sexual assault awareness month, sending love to every victim of sexual assault, it’s not your fault and it will never be your fault, your story is valid.
also, let’s be reminded that no means no and coercing someone to sleep with you is sexual assault.

Kind of an anti-speed tie team using Eleki E-web to outspeed and drop Speed booster flutter and Speed booster flutter icy wind/twave to drop opposing restricted. Ft. a bulky Koraidon and Incin who just never die to anything (can swap goggles for AV incin)
@45mice Not that im anywhere close to an even passable player due to how incredibly new i am to VGC, but ive been messing around with scarf Eleki electroweb/speed booster flutter icy wind to try and negate speed ties. Eleki to avoid flutter ties and flutter to avoid csr ties respectively
