Indian Black Narrowmouth Frog aka “Space Frog” (Melanobatrachus indicus), family Microhylidae, Munnar, Kerala, India

photograph by Hadlee Renjith 

Look, I think it is important that as many people as possible see these phenomenal photos of Melanobatrachus indicus, because they are damn rare, but truly spectacular.

If anyone wants to know my favourite frog, this is probably in the top five.

This cat is so, so friendly and stoked to be there, though! Look at all the leaning and rubbing on people and things, the upright question mark tail; this is a very cuddly cat who wants attention, lmao. 💜

noodle caught a house centipede in my bathroom ONE time months ago and now every time I leave the door open he comes in and does a perimeter check of the whole thing, poking anything on the floor with his paws and sniffing until he’s sure it’s all clear. respect our troops 🫡

@cloudsaremadeofdreams don’t have any pics of him serving in the field but heres my baby boy, he’s so enormous bc he’s full of love

Short post of paleontologists absolutely slaying photo shoots with their discoveries. Please add more such images if you have them.

Here’s some bon(e)us ones: José Bonaparte with Carnotaurus and (the late) Jorge Calvo with a lower jaw of the largest described Giganotosaurus.

I just think we shouldn’t hurt people on purpose and every single day I grapple with how upsetting and angering that idea is to people. 

People will say things like “if you think we shouldn’t hurt people on purpose that’s disrespectful and deliberately callous toward those who have been hurt on purpose already” and I have yet to find language to express the magnitude of how much that’s not true. We shouldn’t hurt people on purpose. Punishment is nothing. Cruelty is just cruelty and it just makes the world we live in a crueler world.
