[Image ID: a speculative phylogenetic tree for all living things in Minecraft, including mobs and any "plant" or "fungus" lifeforms. The phylogenetic tree is illustrated using images from the game. The three highest domains are: Gramina, including grasses, vegetables, and most trees; Prismata, including creepers, slimes, and squids; and Velamina, including all fungi-like lifeforms, most animals, symbiotes (Wither and golems), and flowering plants. /.End ID]

Minecraft evolutionary tree of life, inspired by this one by NitroHydroRay. But in this one, life evolved very differently than it did on our world (it is UNHINGED). Click to zoom.

The clades are all invented, and I tried to name most clades (the ones lower than the three highest domains) according to the zoological guidelines: purple = superfamily, blue = family, green = subfamily, yellow = tribe, orange = subtribe.

My sister has started saying "the beauty and the horror" as a response to cursed images in the family discord and honestly it's such a fitting response

my wizard boyfriend agrees with this; he'll send me pictures of colorful medieval garb and be like, "we should bring this back."

every time I get a new diagnosis (ADHD, OCD, etc.) my Dad's like "I think I might have a minor version of what you experience" lol

moment of silence for everyone who's just like their dad but a girl

#I love my Dad #our similarities are good because I'll go to him when I'm scrupulosity spiraling and he's like #ok I know what this is #and it isn't God #scrupulosity

have you heard He has trampled on Death? have you heard He is reigning at the Father's side? have you heard He will return? have you heard the dead who trust in Him will resurrect with Him?

Absolutely Obsessed with this one guy who painstakingly scratched out all the negative references to gawain in on MS of the prose Tristan & replaced him with agravain��

#gawain was this guy's blorbo #and I love that

You know, sometimes I wonder if the devil is so hard at work convincing people that innocent expressions of affection are actually sexual in nature, or that there's something sinister or toxic behind them, is because he's afraid of the power of a hug, or a simple "I love you" spoken with no expectation of anything in return.

Maybe one of the reasons there are so many people who cynically talk about "no heterosexual explanation for this" or think that romantic/sexual love is the highest form of love is because the devil is afraid of the power of selfless platonic love, and is working hard to suppress it.

Maybe one of the things the devil hated most when Jesus was on earth was the way He kept on touching people, making them feel how much He loved them - even and especially people who hadn't been touched in years, like lepers or the woman with the issue of blood.

Maybe telling your friends you love them and giving your mom a big hug is a tiny act of defiance against the Enemy who wants you to be alone.

actually depends on which aunt I'm talking about, but I chose "awnt" because that's how I pronounce it when I'm saying it apart from someone's name. But yeah: Aunt J is "ant" J; Aunt S is "awnt" S.

an added bonus is that these are colonies, not individual organisms. and the zooids that compose them are specialized, not homogenous. you are looking at an army, perfectly synchronized into a Beast

siphonophores will never not freak me out. stop doing that its SCARY but also please don't ever stop doing that you ethereal marine cryptid

(tags from @kakushino) in ROTC, if we made callsigns for each other, we got extra credit, so I do know what mine would be -- it was "Your Other Left" because I always turned the wrong way while marching 😭😭😭😭

dear ants, you know I love you dearly, but if you crawl on me you know I might hurt you by accident because of moving around or because I think you're a bit of dust. please forgive me if this happens. I love you
