The 'hyperspecific situations' polls are really once again highlighting that native English speakers tend to forget that 'foreign' doesn't mean 'non-English' or 'non-American'
"Did you watch a foreign language movie in the past three days?" Yeah I watched the foreign movie "The Martian" with foreign actor Matt Damon
Op why would you hide this is the tags
I just saw something that looks very mundane but is extremely rare and incredible. Details later, gotta drive home.
OKAY SO
The plan was to go there friday, but as you recall, I got lost in the forest looking for cool rocks and there just wasnβt time. So I took the detour on my way back.
Here is the setting. We are at the bottom of a disused quarry. We took an hour detour and walked here for a little while and maybe you donβt really know why Iβm excited yet.
At first, unless youβre a geology geek (I am not, btw), you might just be thinking, ah, rocks.
But what if we move closer?
Okay, big slab of rock. Some cracks and pockets in it. And?
Come even closer.
Whatβs the big deal? Itβs just a rock with some marks in it. It looks so boring and ordinary and why did I even drag you to this quarry and am making you look at boring rocks?
Because. COME CLOSER.
DO YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE LOOKING AT?
TOUCH THE LITTLE ROUND MARKS IN THE ROCK. PUT YOUR HAND OVER THEM AND FEEL THE RUSH OF HISTORY.
I AM SORRY TO BE YELLING BUT I AM VERY EXCITED.
YOU ARE LOOKING AT THE FOSSILISED FOOTPRINTS OFβ¦
OUR ANCESTOR!
OKAY OKAY I had to add the meme for effect BUT this wouldnβt be the one in the picture, who is still a fish with fins. The tracks belong to a creature with four legs : A TETRAPOD!
Who may have looked and walked like this:
Why did the tetrapod come out of the water? Well, apparently there were invertebrates to feed on, and they left marks too:
So that was the coolest thing I saw this year for sure :D
Is it verified that it's authentic? Because if so that is incredible
Oh, yeah!!! I can't believe that after all that I didn't include any links to the info about it???
The tracks I saw are in ZacheΕmie in Poland :
and are a fairly recent discovery from 2010 so scientists are still arguing about what they mean for evolution history, but they ARE real.
I didn't find these myself, there are helpful signposts in the area that just say 'TETRAPOD', but you have to be curious or know what you're after to find the place.

When people graffiti on buildings: Yes! Ha ha! Fuck yes!
When people graffiti on rockfaces and cliffsides on hiking trails: What the absolute fuck.
It's not punk to poison the soil, dude.

being trans & gender nonconforming is so hard. to Me my long nails are gender in a nosferatu way. to Me my long hair is gender in a metal dude way. to Me my height is gender in a columbo way. to the walmart cashier? to my coworkers, to aunt joan? to some guy at the store? i am some unkempt lady
& thats another thing about those mean-ass Trender Caricatures is like, yeah some trans people dont want to pass or are unable to pass or are closeted etc for various reasons & weve been through all those points time and time again but also like, something that looks traditionally gendered to you might have a different meaning to someone else. maybe you cant see it from where youre standing but that doesnt make it less important to them
I had to take a break from my break to draw Jeffβs cat.
"i love music i wish i could hold it" well you can it's called a CD and it's got a hole and everything
