“Because you are sad. Have you lost something?”
THANK YOU BECAUSE I THINK WE ALL NEED A LITTLE REMINDER THAT THE DOCTOR DIDN’t JUST LOOSE AMY, HE LOST RORY TOO. AND RORY WAS ONE OF THE BEST FRIENDS THE DOCTOR EVER HAD, AND HE’S LOST THEM BOTH
Guys, let me tell you about orcas.
Orca whales are mean motherfuckers. They cruise the oceans with only two things in mind: one, having sex, and two, eating every poor fuck they find out there that’s smaller than them. They are such badass motherfuckers that even great white motherfucking sharks don’t dare fuck with them, which in my books, places them above the sperm whale as Biggest Badass of the Ocean. And why don’t sharks bother them, you may wonder? Because orcas fucking learned that if you flip a shark over they go into a sort of coma, so now they do it intentionally so they can eat the motherfucking sharks. Not only that, but orcas have also learned how to hunt sperm whales and motherfucking sea birds.
The orca whale lives in a matriarchal pod. Every pod has unique hunting methods and whatnot, which is passed down from parent to offspring- these scary fuckers have formed civilizations. And what do they do for fun, apart from hopping around on the water’s surface and grinning like crazy mofos? They hunt for fun, going so far as to tip over ice floes and beach themselves just for the thrill of killing.
Now, I know what you’re thinking. Orca whales are too damn cute and smiley looking to be heartless predators of the sea. Well, let me counter-argue with this photo:
THOSE ARE NOT THE TEETH OF A CREATURE THAT WANTS TO BE YOUR FRIEND.
Reblogging for excellent commentary.
Orcas are actually part of the family delphinidae and dolphins are giant assholes, too. Don’t let those stupid grins fool you. Dolphins are hardcore.
one of the cultures in kastorverse has a saying: “one orca eats fish. two orcas eat seal. three orcas eat whale.” meaning, basically, a lone troublemaker is no big, but assholes in groups are a serious problem.
orcas are bastards.
I’ve been obsessed with orcas for the last few weeks. They are beautiful creatures!! The families are matriarchal, as was posted up above and I don’t view that as a negative because that is fucking fantastic!! Sons will only be around other whales (outside of their families) that their mother has introduced them to. Their brain is huge, and they are incredibly talented. Orcas have different dialects just as we do - for example orcas who hang around New Zealand have a different “accent” than the orcas who hang around British Columbia. Of course the orcas have formed “civilizations” (not the word I would use, but whatever), they are animals, other animals have formed little groups with families, that’s how animals work. Sure, their teeth are large, but they don’t attack humans in the wild, in fact orcas are known to befriend humans when they aren’t in captivity. They are beautiful, intelligent, mammals.
Orcas aren’t bastards.

‘Cause people seem to only post the 20-something Audrey Hepburn
this is genuinely the first photo i’ve seen of her looking older
I didn’t know Audrey Hepburn grew old into a bomb-ass old lady until like, last year. I thought she died young cuz that’s the only pictures I’ve ever seen.
omg
<3
she was also the granddaughter of a baron, the daughter of a nazi sympathizer, spent her teens doing ballet to secretly raise money for the dutch resistance against the nazis, and spent her post-film career as a goodwill ambassador of UNICEF, winning the presidential medal of freedom for her efforts.
and history remembers her as pretty.
