[Image Description: a series of photographs of the absolutely magnificent chubby faced and happy round bois that are this marsupial. In every photo they looks like they’re smiling at the camera. They’re brown, they’re round, they’re furry, they have little arms, in some photos they are eating leaves, and it’s hard not to anthropomorphize happy human emotion onto their baby-like faces. If someone wants to add a better physical description I’m begging you please do, I’m not so good at describing new concepts and this is an entirely new animal to me. End ID]
The universe knew how I feel about capybara and decided to cross it with the pangolin and give me a tiny bear like furry thing to now become obsessed withall.
Why did none of you tell me THIS thing existed? I cannot believe you people keeping these animals from me. I swear I’m going to throw my phone.
Is this thing Australian? It looks Australian. I mean that in a good way. It can go a few ways with Australia…
I don’t have any mobile phone network in or around my farm, but I can get some spotty reception if I pace around the woods for a good while. So now when I want to send or receive a text, and it’s too cold or dark to go outside and walk aimlessly for half an hour, I attach my phone to Pandolf’s collar and send him out in the forest. Usually when he comes home after taking my phone for a walk the text is successfully sent. He’s like those rescue mountain dogs with a little barrel of whiskey round their necks, but the millennial version.
It’s actually a baby salmon shark, seen here being carefully rescued from having beached itself, because it is an oceanic danger puppy and like most wild animals, will bite if confused/scared. (source here)
Cecil. She/her. During the day I sit in libraries staring at books. During the night I write queer fanfiction with a historical slant.
Some not-so-random facts: Gay space lizards are the best lizards. Star Trek is my life. I have too many DS9 ships. Classic Who and the Eighth Doctor Adventures make me grin stupidly. Kelas Parmak is the best. I will defend historically accurate portrayals of Alan Turing to the last drop of blood. Likes and asks end up in the name of @apolesens-otheraccount, because Tumblr doesn't have a way of changing which blog is your primary one. Nothing happens over there - this is the one to follow.
