i've noticed in the morning, there's always a few moths laying directly under where the back porch light hangs on the wall
i thought they were dead but recently i tried to pick them up because there were more than usual and then the moth started flapping frantically
all of them ended up being alive but they couldn't do more than crawl, cling and flap without flying
why is that? i'm guessing the ones i never picked up were alive too, is it just they tire out from flying against the light when its dark and they drop straight to the ground in exhaustiong after?

Oh don’t mind me I’m just thinking about Robin Williams and crying while desperately wanting to be the kind of person he was.
The Google Glass prototype resembled standard eyeglasses with the lens replaced by a head-up display.[21] In mid-2011, Google engineered a prototype that weighed 8 pounds (3,600 g); by 2013 they were lighter than the average pair of sunglasses.[1]

Some companies in the U.S. have posted anti-Google Glass signs in their establishments.[76][77][78] In July 2013, prior to the official release of the product, Stephen Balaban, co-founder of software company Lambda Labs, circumvented Google’s facial recognition app block by building his own, non-Google-approved operating system. Balaban then installed face-scanning Glassware that creates a summary of commonalities shared by the scanned person and the Glass wearer, such as mutual friends and interests.[79] Also created was Winky, a program that allows a Google Glass user to take a photo with a wink of an eye, while Marc Rogers, a principal security researcher at Lookout, discovered that Glass can be hijacked if a user could be tricked into taking a picture of a malicious QR code, demonstrating the potential to be used as a weapon in cyberwarfare.[80]

When someone isn’t smart enough to express their frustration, they use dirty words. Those are words that describe a lack of intelligence. Smart people don’t use those kind of dirty words, because they find it an insult to their intelligence!

Remember Tara the Cat, who last year saved her owner’s son from a vicious dog attack? Well, the SPCA of Los Angeles just awarded her its annual “Hero Dog” medal.
Her unprecedented heroism had to be recognized. They scratched out “dog” and wrote “cat.”

So, I am reading book called Hawaii’s Story by Hawaii’s Queen written by Liliʻuokalani, the last Queen of the Kingdom of the Hawaiian Islands. Let me say, that, not for the first time, I am ashamed to be an American. We pushed this innocent queen of her throne because she had a “Hawaii for the Hawaiians” agenda which America didn’t want. And when the people of Hawaii called for a new constitution, Liliʻuokalani had one drawn up. And then we invaded because that constitution would have limited foreign businesses and would have increased the tariffs that American businessmen would have had to pay. For as long as I live, I will never forgive America for this extreme injustice that was done to this innocent woman who only wanted to give what her people wanted.
For those who have not read the book I strongly encourage you to read it. It is a truly compleling story.

When 21-year-old Malaysian gymnast Farah Ann Abdul Hadi competed at the 2015 Southeast Asian (SEA) Games, she did it with style. Hadi nabbed gold medals in the women's floor exercise and women's team events, as well as a silver in the women's individual events and three bronze medals. Now, the young athlete is receiving heavy media attention—though it's not because of her stellar athletic performance.
According to Malay Mail Online, Muslims are taking to various social media channels to criticize Hadi for showing her “aurat” (roughly translated as genitalia and other body parts that should be covered), as well as the “shape of her vagina”—all because she competed in a leotard.
Senior Islamic cleric Perak Mufti Tan Sri Harussani Zakaria sided with Hadi’s critics.
"Gymnastics is not for Muslim women. It is clear that exposing one's aurat and the shape of one's body is haram [forbidden in Islam],” he reportedly told Astro Awani, the 24-hour television news and current affairs channel broadcast in Southeast Asia.
"If Muslim women want to participate in gymnastics, they have to find outfits which cover the aurat and this, in turn, might not be suitable for the sport.”
The prohibition of showing one’s aurat in Islam presents a kind of Catch-22 for gymnasts like Hadi who not only want to compete, but also manage rack up medal after medal when they do.
Though Hadi's outfit has generated controversy, she also has a fair amount of support, in the form of a Facebook page full of sympathetic messages and fan art. Hadi has also responded to her fans directly on the Facebook page, thanking them for their kindness and generosity.
Malaysia’s minister for youth and sports, Khairy Jamaluddin, also took to Twitter to express his support, suggesting that “gatal [perverted] men” avert their eyes when watching gymnastics if they don't want to be offended.

Sunset found her squatting in the grass, groaning. Every stool was looser than the one before, and smelled fouler. By the time the moon came up she was shitting brown water. The more she drank, the more she shat, but the more she shat, the thirstier she grew, and her thirst sent her crawling to the stream to suck up more water.
Their is many issues with the Noah ark story which creationist refuse to see. The first issuse did Noah, brought seven pairs of clean animals(sheeps,cattle, bird,etc.) and two of every animal. I use bears and example, did Noah bring Tibetan blue bears, Sun Bears, Black, Polar Bears, Panda Bears(not bears, I know), Grizzly Bears, and Brown Bears or just one of two bears. All the animals would be way to inbred with just two animals. In the Old Testament it gives measurement of the ark, it was smaller than the Titanic, so how could Noah fit all the land animals on the ark and fit all the food to feed them. Did none of the animals poop. Disease kill most of the animals? All the world parasites would be on those animals,the closeness, and the shit would of been a perfect place for disease. Also think what if one animal died, because parsites had to be on every animals. Also Noah Ark story is a ripoff, of a ripoff, of a ripoff. Also where did all the water come from, it had to cover Mount Everest. How did all the land plants survive under the water for a year. Noah ark is a silly fairytale, which some foolish people (cough cough creationist cough cough) still believe .

Today my little sister (who is 11) told me that she has two gemsonas that together from a FORCED FUSION that was manufactured to fight for Homeworld during the war and they hate each other so much that their fusion has two totally different but equally volatile manifestations that flare wildly back and forth in their eternal fight for control like wtf never mind Steven Universe isn’t too dark for children it is the exact right amount of dark to satisfy them

Imagine Clear being confused by love triangles in the media because why don’t they just all be together.

Imagine Clear feeling like there was something wrong with him until he meets a polyamorus group and realising he could have something like that.
