President John F. Kennedy was assassinated on this day sixty years ago.
The very same day that C. S. Lewis died.
Looks like poor old Jack (as Tolkien nicknamed him) got upstaged. Even in death.
And the very day after it happened was the broadcast of the first episode of Doctor Who. An Unearthly Child.

Surprise bitch, it's a block of concrete—

You can't just drop that you have an absolutely unhinged fact and not share it. So give up the weird fact, do eet.

Tumblr media
EVERY WRITER HAS AT LEAST ONE. THIS IS COMMON KNOWLEDGE.
Okay fine I will give in
Okay, so.
I think my weirdest fact, just off the top of my head-
Has to be probably that the wendigo species lactates regularly. Like, with no prompting, pregnant or not. A tie between that and the fact that angels do not have genitalia, but instead, a small star system between their legs.
The wendigo one is weirder so that’s the one I’ll elaborate on.
Okay so
The reason for this is because at one point, some of the species were not given the option to go out and hunt fully grown humans. They were aggressive, harder to catch, and more willing to burn things down to be rid of any monsters.
However, murdering a child (while usually considered bad form anyways) while far easier to do, because you could simply go in, pick up this barely sentient being, and then get rid of it as long as it didn’t start screaming, didn’t provide them with nearly enough food to last off of, and the entire species of demon was slowly dwindling and dying out because of that.
So certain wendigos (there’s not a defining factor yet, although I’m thinking it’s those who were afab?) just somewhat regularly produce milk, because evolution’s solution to this was:
If you can’t kill the adults, but the children don’t give you enough meat-
Steal away a child, and then raise it to become an adult.
They, as wendigos, could essentially raise us like livestock.
And for a while, that was exactly what they did. Like as a species, collectively.
Now, things are a little different, as while we do have much more advanced weapons, we aren’t exactly using fire to light our homes and we definitely aren’t going to throw a lantern into one of our massive industrial sized buildings, because god forbid we have to build that shit again- we just won’t do it, we’ll go get a gun or something. Therefore, adults have become easier to hunt again, especially what with all of the cameras and gadgets that we now use to watch our children with- we have baby cams and the doorbells that let us see what’s at our door and household security systems- it is way easier to run face first into a car and just have an adult go missing than it is to actively scrounge up a child unless they’ve got particularly neglectful parents.
But, the milk gene never went away or dwindled off. It usually stays somewhat out of the way, but often flares up when a wendigo is under times of duress and stress.
Wendigo milk, designed to produce humans good for food, is actually massively full of nutritional value, increases our capacity to build muscle mass, assists our digestive system, and usually tastes vaguely sweet to encourage drinking. (Although the flavor from wendigo to wendigo is different, it’s really neat)
Most wendigos don’t struggle with this as much, but the more time you spend on earth/around humans, the more actively their systems think they need it. Usually, this isn’t an issue- but for some demons who choose to spend the majority of their time on earth, it can get uncomfortable if there’s no pressure release, but usually a nursing pump does the trick to minimize discomfort. You just then have. Milk lying around
This, shockingly enough, ties into multiple plot points of mine- none of which are important to the main story, technically? It doesn’t change anything drastically other than kinda one main detail and then a few background details. But I think its funny because it’s essentially an Easter egg for my friends and I, because all of them know this fact from when I was originally working on the series.
Anyways if you’d like more elaboration I am happy to give it, but for now I will put a cap on my rambling so that you can digest this unhinged mess first. /lh
Hopefully you don’t hate me for this, if you do, I’m sorry LMFAO I know my characters to a near uncomfortable level

May I please request some more weird and or disturbing animal facts?
Hm. Yeah sure, but you only get one this time.
Pretty much every historical sighting of a 'sea monster' was actually a whale showing off it's erection and people freaking out about it. Yeah. It gets funnier though, sailors would spend months at sea to come home and brag about encounters with 'giant writhing sea serpents'. There was this one dude, Hans Egede who described it as dreadful, terribly big, and wrinkled and rough. Yeah. And since pacific gray whales and north Atlantic gray whales can pack nearly seven feet, it's not hard to see how a whale could pass as a sea monster.
Have fun with that one.

You wanna know the really big difference between real faces and anime faces? When anime characters talk, their jaw doesn’t move.
I’m not talking about yelling, or moving their face generally, no, when their mouth moves, their jaw doesn’t. Their mouth is just a hole on their face that shrinks and expands, not a latch like a human mouth.
Wait, this probably isn’t just anime is it? Why do so many animated characters not move their jaw?

Mummy brown, also known as Egyptian brown or Caput Mortuum, was a pigment made from white pitch, myrrh and the flesh of mummies.
Despite its morally abhorrent means of production, Mummy brown was extremely popular from the mid-eighteenth to the nineteenth centuries and a favourite color among the Pre-Raphaelites. Even the infamous Eugene Delacroix' Liberty Leading the People is claimed to have been painted with mummy brown because Delacroix was "known to have used pigment made from ground mummy." As well as works from Edward Burne-Jones, who was clueless to the fact that the paint’s name was literal. It is said he interrupted his own dinner party to give the paints a proper burial after finding out its gruesome origin.

“Ao3 needs an algorithm” no it doesn’t, part of the ao3 experience is scrolling through pages of cursed content looking for the one fic you want to read until you get distracted by a summary so cursed that it completely derails your entire search
