rated this video is NOT CUTE. the american being filmed has no visible access to a large beverage, which is necessary for an american's habitat and enrichment. without such access, distress is inevitable. please be sensitive in sharing this video :(

I decided to replay assassin's creed 2 and my very gay roommate plops down on the couch with me.
Him: is he gay?
Me: Desmond? Why?
Him: look at his walk. That is a very cunty walk. He is throwing his hips. Did they steal him from a gay bar?
Me: Well, he was a bartender in New York. I don't think they say what kind of bar.
Him: Oh yeah, he's gay.

https://twitter.com/shannonsharpeee/status/1630568238630461441?s=46&t=PGv7U5gYKFFvlwSQLEGoZw this has SO MANY likes and retweets how do you even go about combatting the misinformation :(((
Link for everyone - it's a video of a young alligator getting brushed with a toothbrush. The alligator's body is very tense, and they close their eyes and open their mouth.
Yeah, this isn't cute, and this isn't what a happy alligator looks like. This is one of those cases where it's really easy for people who don't know about reptiles to anthropomorphize - it can look to the untrained eye like the alligator is "smiling."
Tumblr media
I think the best way to combat misinformation like this is to provide people with the tools to tell on their own if a crocodilian is feeling content. This video is actually a perfect example of what to look for in a stressed crocodilian - tense body, open mouth, leaning the head back, and clenching the eyes shut are all signs of stress and fear in crocodilians.
A content crocodilian will look much different! They'll be laying loosely, often with their limbs splayed out. The mouth will usually be closed (though they might open their mouth to thermoregulate) and their body will look very relaxed.
Tumblr media
Another thing to look for in videos like this - is the crocodilian's mouth taped? No real professional will ever handle a crocodilian without taping their mouth shut, because of the danger crocodilians can pose to humans. Taping the mouth doesn't hurt the animal, and it helps keep everyone safe. Even small crocodilians should always be taped when they're being handled.
Tumblr media
In short, this video combines a misreading of crocodilian body language with a lack of common-sense safety precautions - it's an accident waiting to happen!

Every day.Every day I'm subjected to "cute" or "funny" videos of pet birds interacting with cats or dogs or ferrets. For the last time internet people:
These.Are.NOT. Cute.
No matter how trained the animals are or how "friendly" the interactions look to humans-and they frequently are not- anyone who's making these is actively endangering their bird- and possibly also their dog/cat for likes.
Cats and dogs are not only predators, they can easily kill a bird through normal play behaviours as well- one hard smack from a cat can be enough to kill or severely injure something like a budgie or a cockatiel.and I'm not even talking about things like play biting here.
And even the friendliest best trained most passive cat might not be able to resist their natural instinct to chase birds. One slip up is enough.
On top of that cat saliva contains bacteria that are toxic to birds.
Please stop. Don't like these, don't reblog these, and most definitely do not make these.
Sincerely, someone who owns both birds and cats.

Far too gone to get out, Far too sane to disappear.
I wrote this for my lovely friend, Maki (@dazai-ritualist) and her yandere Alastor au which I swear is my favorite thing ever. She's literally the sweetest thing ever and if you like yandere Alastor, you will be in heavan. Please please follow and read the series. I swear you won't regret it!!!
Tumblr media
"I find that the harder you seem to grip, the more you seem to drop, my love."
Alastor had been quiet the past few days. That was…never good. If he was quiet, it meant he needed to be in deep thought…and if he needed to be in deep thought, you were royally fucked.
Today had been no different. You had woken up late, You went down to the kitchen, where your son and Alastor sit in the wooden breakfast nook that you and Alastor had built together before…all of this.
Everything was normal…
That was bad.
“Mama! Hi! Good morning! Papa-” Noah gets up to run over to you like he always would when he woke up before you in the hotel…you smile fondly. It was almost like you were back home…almost like you were normal.
“Alright, Dear. Let’s let mama wake up now, shall we?”
But of course, Alastor just had to crush that. You frown and walk towards your cabinets…the beautiful light green ones you had once taken such care of before…this.
Your husband hands you a cup of coffee, smiling soft enough to not alert Noah but with far too much of an edge to be sweet.
You almost turn as green as your cabinets and throw up. You don’t, though. Not in front of Noah. You’d seen parents argue and you wouldn’t let your son go through that.
Part of you knew it wasn’t arguing, it was survival but that part had long since been silenced.
“The station is having a late start today…something about the end of lent or something to that effect. Never-the-matter, it gave me time to cook this morning. I haven’t had time to cook for him yet.” Alastor gestured to Noah, to which your little boy beamed, just like you had when your marriage had been friendly…platonic…perfect.
Oh how you longed for the days where you’d leave each other alone. Where your house was safe. Where you could do whatever you so wished. Where you could not only not be afraid but also joyful. Where you could be happy.
Because you weren’t happy. Not anymore. From what you’ve read, you were very clearly struggling with depression. However, you knew that seeing a shrink wasn’t an option for you. 
Yeah, no. You weren’t going to give Alastor the chance to say “Mama’s not crazy, my dear, don’t listen to the people down the street…She’s just a little unwell in the head right now. Now smile, she wouldn’t want to see you sad.” To your son. That was not fucking happening.
Alastor looked at you, smiling like the sick, sadistic monster he was.You were stuck. He knew that. He knew that you were in your own head more so than you should, especially when Noah was at school.
He knew you didn’t have anything to keep yourself busy with, hell, he basked in that fact. The fact that you were slowly losing all drive to fight and just accept this was like music to his ears.
You were running out of people to talk to. Running out of neighbors to ask for sugar when you very clearly had a perfectly fine bag in your cupboard.
You were running out of sanity.
Day-by-day, you were slowly becoming more-and-more malleable, more-and-more agreeable, more-and-more lonely, more-and-more unstable. 
You were becoming what he wanted.
And may god or whatever else is out there help you find a way out before it was too late.

Wanderer above the Sea of Fog, Caspar David Friedrich.
Rating: NOT CUTE.
To many uneducated people, this is the Romantic "ideal"—but this early 19th century man is dangerously stressed, seeking out a novel perspective because he hasn't been provided with adequate enrichment!
Although he has a walking stick (good), this isn't the proper environment for walking. Instead of letting your early 19th century man wander all the way to the precipice of a cliff (in the fog, no less), try giving him some novels from the circulating library, and appropriate bijouterie!
Tumblr media
Much better! The gloves protect his hands (unclear if the "wanderer" has any), and the quizzing glass provides hours of unique visual stimulation. You can see from the neat coiffure that he's well cared for.

i was going on the yunjin tag on tumblr to see some aesthetic moodboards to inspire me and guess what i see. yunjin smut. i was honestly so disgusted because what makes you write smut about a real person who has feelings. if yunjin saw this right now she would probably throw up w me. the fact this writer was older than 20 and only 1-2 years younger than yunjin (she’s 22) was what really blew the final punch. i would expect this behaviour from a 12 year old honestly but not a 20 year old.
i just find it so weird that people actually write smut of k-pop idols. idc abt fictional character smut (i indulge in fictional character smut) but when it crosses into real human beings is when it grosses me out because the person probably doesn’t know about you writing smut about them and if they don’t know abt it, you don’t know if they’re comfy with it. making headcannons of kpop idols’ sex life is wild, for example: ‘yunjin would ride a strap like crazy’ is really weird since she doesn’t know you and you don’t know her personally
so please dni if you write smut of kpop idols and such. i’ve explained why writing kpop idol smut grosses me out and if you do write smut of kpop idols and interact w me, i will BLOCK YOU.

Is the Les Mis Video Cute?
"Confrontation" (Les Mis 2012)
youtube
RATING: NOT CUTE
You should never allow a Valjean and a Javert to claw at each other like this for so long. This is NOT play-fighting! You can tell by their body language and loud off-time off-key vocalizations that they are both seriously aggressive and in extreme distress.
(Just for reference: The proper way to intervene in a situation like this is by throwing thick blankets over their heads, or gently pushing a soft bristled broom between the two of them. DON'T attempt to pick them up with your bare hands or you’ll get bitten.)
And while we’re here, a Javert should NEVER be given a sword. I don't care if you think it'll be "a cute video you can share on tiktok," giving a Javert a sword is simply irresponsible Javert ownership and I can't believe I have to say that. It's just not the proper way to supply your Javert with enrichment, ESPECIALLY if a Valjean is in the room.
And it's like, I get it you guys. I know everyone wants to let their Valjean and Javert socialize together because it's funny to see two different species "playing," especially "natural enemies" like a Valjean and a Javert, and that makes for very good viral social media content. But come on. This just isn't it. Do better.

Hi, I saw this video where people in the comments are claiming it's warm incense water, but isnt that actually not a happy response from the croc? Sorry if you've gotten this before
https://vt.tiktok.com/ZSLVPJmjh/
Link for everyone - yikes. This is a video of someone pouring water from a teapot onto a baby crocodile, with incense visible in the background. The crocodile tightly closes its eyes in response and tries to squirm away.
Yeah, this crocodile is not having a good time. Clenching their eyes shut is sign enough they're not happy, and they're visibly trying to get away, too. There's just no reason to pour water on any animal's head.
Plus, like - it's worse if it's incense water. Reptiles are very sensitive to scented products like incense, and having incense in the background is just making the whole situation even more uncomfortable. Incense that close to a baby crocodile is a recipe for a respiratory infection.
"It's okay it's incense water!"
Tumblr media
As with all videos of crocodilians in pet settings, this one gets a NOT CUTE rating immediately, but the misreading of body language and incense so close take this to a HARMFUL rating too.

What are your thoughts on the Ever Given incident? Was it cute?
Tumblr media
Rating: Not Cute!
While no permanent damage was done and the Ever Given was set loose eventually, obstructing one of the biggest trade routes in the world caused it quite a bit of distress and it had to be taken care of very carefully after escaping.

Rating: NOT CUTE.
The vogue in 1840s men, incorrectly believed to be docile and low-maintenance, has led to many scenes like this. Even worse, some will indulge this behaviour, as though all that plaid-clad cake couldn't do wrong!
These 1840s men need immediate intervention with a book of etiquette: direct his attention to a chapter on the evils of tobacco, a crass and low habit. Giving your 1840s man the fringed joinville necktie or silly little walking stick he desires is harmless; his constant smoking is not!
Never be seen in cigar divans or billiard rooms; they are frequented, at best, by an equivocal set. Nothing good can be gained there; and a man loses his respectability by being seen entering or coming out of such places.
— Etiquette; or, A guide to the usages of society, with a glance at bad habits (1843)
