i've had a few hours of shoveling snow to think about tyler the creator and sars boy's statement that oddfuture ain't horrorcore
after hours of deliberation and cigarettes and heaving snow i came to the conclusion they are no more horrorcore than early wu-tang, particularly method man
tyler and earl sweatshirt evoke the bleakest parts of method man's nastier stuff, such as Bring The Pain and them skits where they're talking about putting a dudes nuts on a dresser
if anything, they are possibly the west coast inheritors of that legacy. young angry men speaking outlandishly, lashing out at the world while staying self aware of the imagery they invoke
at their age, it is crazy to see this level of production and focus on their fanbase, and this is yet another example of DIY music blowing up in the internet age
So Vivian Maier was an amateur street photographer who worked as a nanny
only recently discovered
took ~100K photos, most of which haven't been scanned or developed
and her photography is exactly the kind I like
That lizard is damn huge, I would probably murder my friends.
I know it's not, but it looks kinda Komodo Dragon-y, does it have any poison or razor sharp teeth, or is it relatively harmless?
komodo dragons aren't venomous but their mouths are reeking cesspits of bacteria, meaning bite wounds are incredibly toxic and infectious. I do not know if that is a trait common to all monitor lizards, though.

It's been recently discovered that they do in fact have venom glands, and the venom might be the first stage of the bite becoming septic.
Also the lizard in the video is a Goanna. They're not generally dangerous or aggressive but they'll bite you if they have to
The forest department received a message early on May 19th about a large tiger which had killed two cows near Tamuli Pathar village, which is close to the boundary of the Kaziranga National Park (KNP) in the north-eastern Assam state. By 10 am a joint team of the Assam forest department including the director of the park, Mr N. K. Vasu, the local administration, police and the army, and the Wildlife Trust of India(WTI)-managed Centre for Wildlife Rehabilitation and Conservation (CWRC) was combing the area with five elephants trying to locate the animal.
Range officer, Dharanidhar Bodo, Dr Chaudhary along with a guard were riding the elephant, Joymala, driven by Pegu. Bodo was carrying the darting gun. As the elephant moved towards the tigress, it did a mock charge. The guard fired two blanks to discourage her and she ran away into the next field, where the paddy was thick and hid there.
The team cautiously moved towards it and could get to almost 20 feet where she was growling away. Bodo could see her clearly and took a shot at it with the dart gun. The dart missed her and this enraged her so much that she charged and took a “flying” leap on to the elephant’s head. “I have not seen something as dramatic as this,” Vivek Menon, executive director WTI, who recently saw the footage, said. “I could never imagine that a tiger could so effortlessly leap from the ground on to an adult elephant’s head, which is at least 12 feet above the ground,” he said.
The footage showed that Pegu saw the tigress leaping and threw the metal ankush at it to defend himself. “The tigress saw the ankush coming, dodged it in mid-leap and took a swipe at Pegu without actually landing on the elephant, which had stepped back,” Menon said.
“It all happened in a few seconds and before we knew what both Bodo and the guard had fallen down,” Dr Choudhary narrated. What now happened was even more amazing. As the tigress landed on the ground Joymala quickly pinned her down with her left fore foot and tried to control it with its trunk. The tigress struggled under this weight for at least half a minute roaring, as other people in the vicinity shouted and fired shots in the air. In this commotion another attempt was made to dart it, but even this shot was off the mark. The tigress finally struggled loose and ran away.
“If it had not been for Joymala, both Bodo and the guard would have been badly injured or dead,” he said. Meanwhile, Joymala, which was trying to aggressively chase the tigress, was calmed by the CWRC veterinarian, who was holding on to the profusely bleeding mahout. “His fingers were hanging by few shreds of tissue and I tried to tourniquet the wounds,” he said.
The two sub-adult tigers had strayed out of the heavily wooded Agoratuli range of the KNP into the neighbouring Tamuli Pathar village close to the national highway. It was speculated that the mother could be nearby, but she could not be spotted.
KNP has one of the highest density of tigers among the protected areas in India , but are difficult to see due to the thick vegetation in this grassland dominated park.
The Centre for Wildlife Rehabilitation and Conservation (CWRC) is a joint venture of the Assam forest department and the Wildlife Trust of India, and is supported by its partner the International Fund for Animal Welfare (IFAW). This rescue and rehabilitation facility for animals of the region is a first of its kind facility in India has handled over 300 animals in the last two years including mega-herbivores like elephants, rhinos and wild buffaloes. These were the first tigers brought to the facility in two years of its existence.
why were dudes firing shots in the air, what was that supposed to accomplish
yeah, that doesn't make sense to me either
They might have been trying to scare off the tiger, but the tiger was pinned down anyway
I suppose they might have just panicked in the heat of the moment
or the story isn't reported too well and we're not getting a complete picture
it refers to the titan Atlas, carrying the thankless world on his back, just as the great capitalists of the book keep the world running but are so marginalized and under-appreciated
so if Atlas were the shrug, the world would be destroyed, I guess, just as how the world breaks down into chaos because the industrialists take all their toys and go home
as for everyone else who's hurt by this well
sucks to be them
it's a really awful philosophy and a terribly written book

Need some stuff designed or printed? I can help with that.

Oh god this is the best.
I don't know why they wouldn't just shoot it after seeing it nearly kill one of them, though.

Oh yes, this is fantastic.
I love these two, they are always hilarious.
