TIL a cave goat that went extinct approx. 5,000 years ago is the first known mammal to have become cold-blooded. Their bone growth rate is unlike any other mammal, and more similar to crocodiles in showing slow and adaptive rates to environmental temperature.

The goat’s binomial name is Myotragus balearicus. It was kind of an oddball in a lot of other ways, too, an example being that it had forward-facing eyes, giving it stereoscopic vision, which was pretty odd for an ungulate. 

Here’s what its skull looked like, btw.

Y’all should be paying attention to the midterms.

running for a senate seat in Texas is the zodaic killer himself ted cruz and new comer to the senate beto o rourke.

now lemme tell you about my man

Beto O’ Rourke

he’s a democrat, something texas desperately needs. He:

also notable: unlike cruz, beto would not have voted to confirm kavanaugh.

beto being elected would be huge for texas. as someone from there, lemme tell you, he’s someone the state sorely needs. texas is in desperate need of a democrat and Beto is our best bet. in recent polls, cruz was shown to be ahead, but not by much. cruz. cannot. win.

there are ways you can help! if you live in Texas, you can sign up to volunteer. you can volunteer to do things such as send texts, emails, knock on doors. typical campaign stuff.

if you don’t live in Texas, you can donate. you don’t have to live in the state to donate. donating is one of the best ways you can support him because it funds his campaign! as mentioned above, he doesn’t take PAC money. he is 100% grassroots campaign, funded by people, for people.

i’m going to reiterate this. any us citizen* can donate. any. doesn’t matter where you live in the united states. so, I urge. if you don’t live in texas, donate. the average donation amount is $35, but any amount will help.

*if you don’t live in the united states/aren’t a citizen, legally you cannot donate. i don’t make the rules guys.

if you can’t donate, please reblog this so others can see it. people can’t vote in midterms if they don’t know who their nominees are.

this midterm election is crucial. getting Beto into the senate is crucial. reblog or donate!

Man I’m not even from Texas but I love this guy!!!

Also?! Is a babe

Seriously! I’m no longer in Texas, but this guy had my vote. Every vote especially counts in Texas, where it’s so fucking huge.

I LOVE BETO. Fellow Texans, you really should vote for him. He is a good guy and would be good for us.

honestly women should collectively just disagree to argue with men because every “polite discussion” a man has ever initiated with me has shown me that this is merely a tool they use to uplift their own egos and express their narcissism. I wont elaborate because its tiring and literally every woman knows what im talking about, as women in discussion we serve as a tool for men to fill their egos. Eventhough we make equal (and more often much better) points and arguments, they scream over us with no place for us to scream back because then we have lost (an angry woman has lost but an angry man has the right to feel whatever hes feeling). Anyways i wish not to speak to a man ever again in my life and i will not elaborate, ever, thank you so much.
