this gets funnier every year 

The year is 2042. Your daughter is awkwardly silent as she eats her dinner. “Something wrong sweetie?” She sighs and puts down her fork. “I was digging really deep in AO3 last night…Why didn’t you finish that coffee shop au?” It happened. Your past has come back to haunt you. Nay, it never truly left.

U CANNOT OUTRUN UR CRIME

OKAY BUT WAIT. This has happened to me. Recently. Because I am old and I have things out there from previous fandoms with previous pseuds and one day my teenager begins a rant at me about people never finishing any WIPs on the pit of voles (which he does not call the pit of voles because he has No Knowledge of such a thing but yet he still reads on which I didn’t think anyone did any longer) and he points out an example to me of something I WROTE AND LEFT WIPing for ages and he has NO IDEA #1 that his mom wrote this and #2 How much it still haunts me to this day that it will. sit. there. for. eternity. because I am too lazy to pull it down.

oh my god

#why didn’t you finish cleaning your room?#IDK MOM WHY DIDN’T YOU FINISH THE RON/DRACO MERMAID AU?

This movie already is the most hilarious animated crossover ever made in history omg

@thebibliosphere

Sounds perfectly understandable to me.

She gie’d her mammy a cake, she turnt intae a big bear, and her old yin tried tae dae her in. If that’s no pure mess, I don’t know wut is. Simples.

I’ll be honest, I got the first part of that, and the last part.  But there is an entire sentence in the middle, that evidently is about her father trying to kill her mother, that sounds completely unintelligible to me.  I assumed it was another language – potentially Gaelic but honestly, I’ve never heard that spoken before so I was taking a guess there.

I watched Brave and had absolutely no trouble understanding the entire movie so they’re definitely increasing the accent here for comedic value.  But also it’s not just an accent – that second part of the first sentence isn’t understandable even transcribed.

I’m
a weird one though – I grew up in an asian country (not white), and
somehow despite multi-lingual parents and siblings (as is expected in
that asian country), my only and mother tongue is English.

It’s no Gaelic, it is however Scots 🙂

“Big Yin” is a common Glasgow term, and this is important, cause Billy Connolly who voiced her Da, is from Glasgow. It’s also the name was known by during his rise to fame, and is still affectionately known as “The Big Yin”.

It basically means “the big man” (note: a person does not need to be tall or large in stature to be called the big man, sometimes it can mean something else like “boss” or “strong personality”). So yea. Was a nice wee addition to her dialogue, though they’ve made her more Weegie for sure.

Are you saying “The Big Yin” could also translate into “Big Dick Energy”???

Abso-fucking-lutely.

peacock spiders

maratus are small jumping spiders, usually 4-5 mm (0.2 in) or smaller, with a high degree of sexual dimorphism. they are more commonly known as peacock spiders based on the peacock-like display of the males. jumping spiders have excellent vision and are remarkably intelligent, able to learn and plan ahead.

maratus sceletus

colloquially named “skeletorus” and described in 2015, this species is only found in the wondul range national park of southern queensland, australia. males inflate their striped spinnerets as they display to females and dance asymmetrically, alternately raising one leg to one side and then using the other.

maratus personatus

known as the blueface maratus, this dazzling spider uses its vivid blue mask to attract females. unlike other peacock spiders, the males lack the characteristic fan-like abdomen, and instead relies on its colouration and white banding. they range in size from 3mm to 5mm and were discovered in 2015.

maratus anomalus

with bright iridescent scales, m. anomalus can appear turquoise, dark blue or purple depending on the angle you view it. these miniature spiders are small even by maratus standards, ranging from just 2 to 3mm. they appear to prefer sparse brush near the coast.

maratus spicatus

one of the smallest peacock spiders to date, this species is 3mm but still easily recognisable. it’s found in and around the bushland reserves of perth, western australia, where it prefers habitats of loose leaf litter, twigs and low vegetation. the males display by raising just one white-tipped third leg to attract the attentions of a female. this species was described in 2013.

maratus nigromaculatus

this brilliant blue spider is restricted in distribution to the coastal areas of queensland, where it seems prefers wetlands. it lives amongst grass and pigface plants (carpobrotus), particularly along the borders of estuaries. unlike the other peacock spiders nigromaculatus was described back in 1883.

maratus speciosus

also called the coastal peacock spider, this tiny 4mm species exclusively inhabits the vegetation of the coastal sand dunes in western australia. the characteristic orange hairs are only visible during courtship displays. described in 1874, the species used to be classed as salticus, but was moved to maratus.
