“You don’t have to be carrying the heaviest burden for your struggle to matter. It doesn’t matter if other people have it “worse”. It doesn’t matter if they’ve lost more or hurt for longer. It doesn’t matter if someone with your same struggle is more debilitated or has less resources. If something is painful for you, then it’s painful for you. And if it affects you, it’s important and it matters. There’s no rule that only the person with the worst possible circumstances gets to vocalize their pain. Your struggle isn’t “easier” or “more difficult”. It’s just different, because people are different. You have different strengths and limitations and access to resources. You have a different history and lived experience. Your tolerance for hardship is allowed to look different. Pain is pain. No matter what it looks like. And no matter how your experience compares to anyone else’s, your feelings are valid and your struggle is still real. Even if your life holds a lot of beauty. Even if your cup is full and your days are blessed. You’re allowed to be affected. You’re allowed to hurt. You’re allowed to feel broken and sad. And you deserve a space to talk about it. Always.”
JESUS??
JESUS????
i had no idea they were so frickin huge
I love them so much because they’re about as sharp as a baseball and their anatomy is ridiculous to the point of them literally being classified as plankton for years because they just sort of get blown around by the ocean and look confused, but because they lay more eggs than ANY OTHER VERTEBRATE IN EXISTENCE, evolution can’t stop them
Why is no big predator coming and gnawing on them?
Their biggest defense is that they’re massive and have super tough skin, but they do get hunted by sharks or sea lions sometimes and they just sort of float there like ‘oh bother’ as it happens
Even funnier, because they eat nothing but jellyfish they’re really low in nutritional value anyway, so they basically survive by being not worth eating because they’re like a big floating rice cracker wrapped in leather.
So basically the only reason natural selection hasn’t taken care if them is because they are the most useless fish
yes, they’ve perfected uselessness to the point of being unstoppable
a true inspiration
Evolution didn’t care about fittest or best, it cares about the CARE MINIMUM.
Which is a being a giant leather rice cake.
AUTO REBLOG OF PACIFIC SUNFISH. MOTHER NATURE AT HER MOST WHIMSICAL. THE FARTHEST YOU GET FROM FISH DESIGN AND STILL CALL IT A FISH. AKA FLOATING CARDBOARD IN FISH FORM.
They aren’t useless, you monsters! The fact that they eat so many jellyfish is their exact ecological purpose. They are a key part of controlling jellyfish blooms. Sunfish keep jellyfish from taking up all the available space
All hail these jellyfish vacuums who make sure the other delicate creatures of the deep are not accidentally murdered by the jellyfish
Sea Roomba, you say?

Everybody shut up I'm sinking into a daydream universe where I'm loved and nothing is wrong
I’m attracted to intelligence; and it’s not just the book smart kind; show me how good you are at painting, dancing, photography; anything that you’re good at, teach me the history behind the subject, let me see the side of you where you’re so engrossed in explaining the thing you love that I can’t help but fall in love with you.
