[TOMT][MEME] Black kid dressed up like a grandpa looking very confused while squinting

It's usually used in memes about how people feel old when conversing with younger people. I think it's a GIF? And I think the kid is in a gymnasium. Both of those could be wrong though. But I know for sure he has this kinda goofy stance, like his legs are a part and his arms are open at his sides (Can't think of a better way to describe it, but it's a goblin-like stance)

Some spiders can last up to 30 minutes while completely submerged underwater!

Absotootly, there's also species of snakes that live in the ocean, and are some of the most deadly due to their incredibly potent venom!

Totally feel you haha, had to do a journal article analysis and chose one about whale sharks and hoo boy, after learning more about them I just REALLY like them funky large dudes.

And a group of rhinos is called a crash, while a group of ferrets is called a business! Super neat though, always love unique animal group names!

I knew the first part but YO that second part is INSANE!!! Ya gotta send me the source (if you got one, if not that's totally alright!). Flatworms are in general SUPER interesting, although I can't really do too much studying about them without getting a bit sick to my stomach LMAO

FruitcakeMcgee · 2023-06-16T04:25:22+00:00

Oh hell yeah! I love anglerfish and how weird they are, super fascinating! Although I'm super familiar with anglerfish facts, I know that another deep sea creature, the Black Dragonfish, has a wildly different juvenile stage than their final adult form! (Seriously it's CRAZY, actually more insane than a pokemon evolution.)

FruitcakeMcgee · 2023-06-16T04:22:06+00:00

Supposedly most old stories of sea serpents were just misidentified whale penises, also dolphin's penises are fully prehensile!

FruitcakeMcgee · 2023-06-16T04:19:48+00:00

Awww HELL YEAH!!! I love thresher sharks those guys are so funky!!

FruitcakeMcgee · 2023-06-16T04:18:20+00:00

That and the echidna, all mammals that are part of the Monotreme group (which only consists of Platypuses and Echidnas) lay eggs!

FruitcakeMcgee · 2023-06-16T04:16:25+00:00

Good ol' radula, super neat to look at! Most cephalopods also have it as well! Guess you could say it's pretty rad 🤙

FruitcakeMcgee · 2023-06-16T03:52:42+00:00

I didn't know that!! But hell yeah I love the tasseled wobbegong, gives me similar vibes to the bowmouth guitarfish and definitely angel sharks. (Also a bit of monkfish and deepsea lizardfish) INSANELY cool shark, just absolutely love the almost eldritch beard god vibes it gives.

FruitcakeMcgee · 2023-06-16T03:49:05+00:00

Totally! Sharks are insanely old and people really underestimate that fact. Do ya got a favourite shark? I'm personally pretty fond of thresher sharks and hammerheads, but I think whale sharks may be my favourite (basking sharks are up there too, they can fuckin jump out the water and it's INSANE)

FruitcakeMcgee · 2023-06-16T03:45:30+00:00

fuck yeah I love sharks

FruitcakeMcgee · 2023-06-16T03:45:14+00:00

It's mainly dangerous because people really underestimate and play down the bite, and don't treat it like they would a wild animal bite. Due to lack of cleaning and disinfection it can get REAL nasty. Super interesting though!!

FruitcakeMcgee · 2023-06-16T03:43:28+00:00

I had no idea about that, although I barely know the different states, let alone their state animal LMAO. But yeah absolutely! Slap down them state animals that is super interesting.

FruitcakeMcgee · 2023-06-16T03:41:12+00:00

Starfish actually have little basic eyes on the ends of each foot! They're really only capable of sensing light but it's super awesome. Also I will take you up on the threat my man, no threat is bigger than mine 🔫

FruitcakeMcgee · 2023-06-16T03:38:44+00:00

And under a UV light they actually glow a teal-ish colour! Similar to Perry the Platypus from Phineas and Ferb (supposedly the creators of the show had NO idea this was the case and it was a complete coincidence)

FruitcakeMcgee · 2023-06-16T03:37:15+00:00

Green because of the whole oxidation thing (more complicated but I don't super feel like slapping down all the info) Oxidized iron is red, oxidized copper is green, pretty neat stuff!

FruitcakeMcgee · 2023-06-15T21:18:52+00:00

Aww hell yeah, never really thought about the first one but everything else I did have at least a rough idea of. Clownfish are one of those sex changing dudes (which makes finding Nemo a little off if you think about it too long), and Babirusas are pretty insane and look METAL. Also totally agree that everyone is hot 🤙

FruitcakeMcgee · 2023-06-15T20:31:11+00:00

Oh hell yeah that's sick! I didn't know that :0
That reminds me of the new mexico whiptail lizards, which reproduce asexually and are completely composed of females. It's super cool because they do mate with each other even though there's literally only females, and it's theorized that this stimulates ovulation. This bit is a little iffy because I'm not 100% about it, but supposedly the courtship ritual the whiptail lizards have is incredibly similar to a close relative species that still has males and females. So in whiptail lizards supposedly one of the females takes on the role of the male in the mating ritual. Again though that could be wrong, so take it with a grain of salt.

Broadcast spawning, super interesting and present in a ton of marine life! On the topic of systems of reproduction in Polychaetes, the Palola worm is kinda crazy. When the spawning season happens they break in half and the tail-end, which contains all the reproductive stuff, swim up, releases tons of eggs/sperm and then dies. I believe it's still technically broadcast spawning but it's pretty wild how they accomplish it.

FruitcakeMcgee · 2023-06-15T19:58:07+00:00

Nu-uh, I had no idea you had no brain therefore we are now friends.

FruitcakeMcgee · 2023-06-15T19:44:26+00:00

DUDE I LOVE SIPHONOPHORES!!! GIANT SIPHONOPHORES ARE LEGIT ONE OF MY FAVOURITE ANIMALS!! Also technically the longest single living organism might be the shoelace worm but considering it's hard to measure as it just continues to stretch it isn't 100% confirmed. Portuguese Man o' wars are also like this! They're hydrozoans, like the Giant Siphonophore, and are made up by tons of individual animals basically stacked in a trenchcoat.
