Moose are pretty good swimmers and they swim enough for Orca Whales to pose a significant threat.

My favorite moose fact is the cryptid herd in New Zealand. We know they’re out there, but nobody has seen one in over half a century.

In New Zealand.

Hi I’m sorry. I usually don’t insist that people elaborate on their comments but-

What the everloving fuck are you talking about???

wetwareproblem

In 1910, a herd of 6 females and 4 males was released in Fiordland. The last confirmed sighting was in 1952, and it was considered marginal territory for them, so it was presumed they had died out.

Until some moose hair was found in 2002.

This lead to extensive searches and installation of automatic cameras - none of which have caught an actual moose, though bedding and rub sites have been found.

The current theory as I understand it is that they’re living off of rich seaweed beds in the area.

Look, I get that Death is interested in humanity but because of his status as the anthropomorphic representation of death no matter how hard he tries he will never truly “get” the things he tries to replicate in the death dimension, but to me that screams peak dad energy.

If you’ve ever had the pleasure of introducing your father to new things like video games or twitter for example, they’re going to try their best to understand the thing that you find enjoyable but still have no real grasp on it by the time you’re finished explaining. Death is that concept only it makes up a major portion of his personality which means that Death is just the ultimate dad. Death is just like, I may not understand the things my granddaughter is talking about but I support her 100%. Like, if he wasn’t required to wear the black robe full time he’d absolutely be in a shirt, brown khakis and the socks and sandals combo. 

Just…Death has peak dad energy and I will take no further questions on the matter.

The important question is not, COULD gandalf kick dumbledore’s ass, but WOULD he. Answers below.

penny-anna

The votes are in: Gandalf COULD, WOULD and SHOULD kick dumbledore’s ass.

OP where does Merlin fit into this equation

penny-anna

Merlin COULD kick Dumbledore’s ass and Gandalf COULD kick Merlin’s ass. Gandalf however WOULD and SHOULD NOT kick Merlin’s ass bcos Merlin is a sweetheart and they’d be buds.

Merlin SHOULD kick Dumbledore’s ass but WOULD NOT bcos as stated above he is a sweetheart.

understands all the nuances of first and last names: frodo, sam, merry, pippin, gandalf

knows about last names but isn’t entirely sure how to use them: aragorn, boromir

doesn’t understand last names and at this point is afraid to ask: legolas, gimli

peredain

boromir calls pippin ‘peregrine of the house of took’ one time and he can’t stop laughing all day

gimli thinks baggins is a battle epithet and politely asks frodo when and how he earned it. “i got it from my father? when i was born?” gimli doesn’t know whether to be impressed or concerned

aragorn just thinks they’re basically epessi. one can never have too many epessi. he calls merry ‘brandybuck meriadoc’ which prompts legolas to do some internal math as he tries to figure out which one is brandybuck

(via @avenger-shaped-plotholes) YES EXACTLY

VERY into Pippin calling Boromir ‘Mister Gondor’ one day in an effort to be polite and Boromir being dazed for full minutes at being addressed like a popular gondorian children’s book protagonist

awkward when you have a ship full of gay pirates encountering a puzzle with a heteronormative answer.

citizen-of-the-fandom

See I want to know Ragetti’s backstory because of lines like these. I wonder how a man who seems to have been a philosophy student ended up a pirate who plays down his book learning and tells Pintel he can’t read – or was his father the student, and as a boy he picked up big words like ‘dichotomy’ but couldn’t sign his name to save his life? The Ragetti who Barbossa chose as guardian of one of the Nine Pieces of Eight, who is perhaps more consistently loyal to Pintel than Will is to Elizabeth, who casually analyzes a three-way fight between pirates like someone who’s studied Shakespeare, who at one point speaks more gently and honestly to the goddess of the ocean than any other character (“you’re not saying it right, you have to say it right.”), whose first reaction to a ship capsizing is ‘tie ourselves to the mast upside down’ and who sailed to Davy Jones’ Locker just to see Jack again… what is his story?

Yeah, no, see, that’s actually a pretty damn good explanation.
