worf: captain, we must proceed with extreme caution. we must attack now with a show of force
picard: fuck you. FUCK you. no. fuck off
odo: captain, I’m going to pretend to be an end table and spy on our colleagues like, all the time. we should literally bleed every new visitor to see if they’re a humanoid. also your tailor wants to know if you need new pants and if he’s “allowed” some more light war crimes
-possums hang out in their mother’s pouches after birth almost 4 times longer than they stay in the womb, sometimes even more! (free housing woo)
-possums in northern regions have much shorter tails than most opossums. it’s theorized this could be from frostbite (poor guys)
-the Virginia opossum has more teeth than any other North American land mammal (50 whole teeth, dang dude save some for the rest of us)
-when a possum “plays dead” it is also doing everything in its power to look super sick and gross to trick predators. it will foam at the mouth, drool all over, and excrete a foul-smelling fluid that smells like a decaying animal to make predators think the possum has been dead for a while
-opossums playing dead can cause them to go into shock. playing dead is an instinctive action and normally lasts 30 seconds to 3 minutes, but if they go into shock they can play dead for 20 minutes to 4 hours (or MORE), that’s why you should NEVER pick up or bury a “dead” possum, as moving it while it is in shock can actually kill it :(
-baby possums go “choo choo” (or make sneezing noises) to call to their mothers :)
“lol Android users be like-” your phone is designed to break down after a year, your apps are all programmed to draw unnecessary power after 2 years, all your accessories and hardware are arbitrarily made with only 1 kind of plug in mind so you can’t use them with anything else or get them from anywhere else, the cables are 150$ and break in a year, your phones will not charge if there is lint in the port, the stores will ask you for 150$ to remove that lint, the phone itself is 900$
But your chat bubbles are blue so that balances it out right
they literally removed the audio plugin and called it a benefit that it can now only work with their arbitrary wireless headphones. They coloured the phones a pinky gold and sold it for twice as much.
This isn’t a drag against you this is a drag against apple, the company. Their products are price hiked to an insane, impossible degree. They aren’t selling you the product, they are selling you the superiority of being able to smugly say you have an iphone.
They deliberately built up a culture of apple supremacy (especially as a class barrier but i aint even gonna go into that), and now people are making posts like “lmao android users have a bad camera” (they dont) or “lmao android users send bad snapchats” (the android version of snap is deliberately coded to force lower resolution images in order to, surprise, get people saying that exact thing to further encourage #iphoneculture)
Buy an iphone if you want lord knows I’ve bought frivolouss things but can you PLEASE recognize youre being deceived??? theyre playing you every single time you make a post about your iphone and buy into their culture to squeeze more and more money out of you and divide the market and inevitably the classes.
If I ever don’t reblog this assume I’m dead
The iphone stands as a testament to the power of brand loyalty. theres no qualitative reason to buy iphones.
with the release of the new iphone I would like to bring this post back.
It has a slow motion camera…. ok so when are you going to use that? Is that worth the price? Or are you going to get it just because its the new iphone (and your old iphone is suddenly mysteriously slowing down and having software issues)?
