i love baikal seals. they always look like they've just gotten out of a sixteen year relationship and are now having an existential crisis. sopping wet cats. weirdly smooth. i love them.
Capybara from real life
Ok, I pull up.
capybara on a scooter
Sadly it’s from a book 😔
“Alexandria’s Genesis, a.k.a violet eyes (a genetic mutation).
When someone is born with Alexandria’s Genesis, their eyes are blue or gray at birth. After six months, the eyes begin to change from their original color to purple, and this process lasts six months. During puberty, the color deepens to dark purple, a deep purple, a royal purple, or a violet-blue color and remains that way. It does not affect the person’s eyesight. Those who have this mutation will never grow any facial, body, pubic, or anal hair (not including hair on their head, on their ears, noses, eyebrows and eyelashes). Women also do not menstruate, but are fertile”
In 1982, quite by accident, a zookeeper at Izu Shaboten Zoo in Shizuoka Prefecture discovered that capybaras absolutely loved soaking in hot water, and the practice of providing them an onsen, or traditional Japanese hot spring, was born. Source Massimo; video @yu_haradakei.

informational comic abt my main disability, PNES! I’ve found that little to no one I talk to knows abt non epileptic seizures, so I brought together some information that I would’ve really liked to see before I was diagnosed.
IMPORTANT EDITS: - conversion disorder is now known as functional neurological disorder and my comparison was oversimplification. FND is very real, and has its own unique struggles. PNES is closely linked to it in awareness and communities. - not all PNES episodes are caused by emotional stress. we still don’t know exactly why that is for each person. - the cause is HEAVILY debated. I just chose the prevailing theory at the time of writing the comic that seems to make the most sense.
