    Did you know that penguins have a special anus able to withstand a much higher psi than most animals?

    They need this so they can squirt their poop away from the egg they’re keeping warm.

    Of course there’s so many penguins in close proximity, this means they’re all covered in shit and smell bad.

      Floods aren’t just water but also everything the water picks up in the process of flooding, which is pretty much everything in its path, including the contents of things normally kept in water below ground. And if you think it’s bad for humans needing to cross through flood waters (or stuck in them), think about the fish that have to live in water but now it’s mixed with all the gross land animal stuff in addition to the normal gross water animal stuff.

      I just try to be comfortable with the silence; if they’re uncomfortable that’s on them.

    More older I am, more I think that I have some brain damage as for social interactions. It always feel like I am overthinking how should I react in most instances, when for other people it’s probably more natural. Although I must say that people tend to be always smiling or being nice around me for some reason, and to be honest I don’t get it.
