Here Are Some Reasons Tumblr Absolutely Has to Stick Around

Tumblr has been around for quite a while now, and when there’s been more than a little speculation over the years that it may eventually go the way of Xanga or Myspace. This kind of talk was especially prevalent when the site went under new ownership and banned some of the – erm – spicier content the platform had to offer.

But it lives on, and there’s a good reason. That reason being, it gives us gold. Pure gold. The stuff of heavenly streets.

Let’s look at a few reasons Tumblr should stay around forever, shall we?

12. It prepares you for the tests

That last sentence really hits hard.

11. They provide deaf comedy jams

Wait for the last bit.

10. They clear a few things up

Oh dang, what if I just like writing terrible stuff?

9. Their dank memes

I want to clean my screen off just looking at this.

8. Their vivid illustrations

Nobody can express it quite like this.

7. Their niche gameplay

I had to look it up, this was apparently a real thing briefly, though it’s gone now.
Maybe you can find it on the Wayback Machine?

6. They put those kids in their place

Not to brag but I’m pretty good myself.

https://genuine-foxy-fan.tumblr.com/post/183881816011/apparently-a-tetris-battle-royale-came-out-and-in

5. They come up with the best terminology

Even if they don’t land on it right away.

https://disembroil.tumblr.com/post/135489050252/that-bench-turned-into-a-snow-sofa

4. They love animals

Where we go one, we go all.

https://evilkitten3.tumblr.com/post/648968635789033472/computationalcalculator-overlyactivepingpongball

3. They have great debate prep

Ah, yes, interesting.

https://setheverman.tumblr.com/post/154845889072/robotsatthedisco-puppytierjade

2. They tell wonderful stories

Or whatever this might be.

https://taahko.tumblr.com/post/161607456106/open-rp

1. They’re great science communicators

It’s all so much clearer now.

Did You Know Lifeguards in Los Angeles Can Make More Than $350,000 a Year?

I’m a Midwesterner, so when I think about lifeguards, what comes to mind is teenagers who compete on their school’s swim teams and who also earn some summer cash watching over kids (and adults) at the local swimming holes.

It turns out that on the coasts, though, policing the oceans can be an actual job that pays really, really well.

Auditors at OpenTheBooks.com compiled numbers from Freedom of Information Act requests and data listed with Transparent California, and found that nearly 100 lifeguards in the state made over $200,000 in 2019.

Image Credit: iStock

The top earner, “acting chief lifeguard” Fernando Boiteux, made a whopping $391,971 once all of his salary, overtime, perks, and benefits were included.

The runner-up was one Captain Daniel Douglas, who made $140,706 in base salary, $131,493 in overtime pay, $21,760 in “other pay,” and $74,709 in benefits – that’s a total salary of $368,668, if you don’t want to do the math yourself.

Thirty-one of the lifeguards listed made between $50,000 and $131,493 in overtime in 2019 – a fact that might have taxpayers wondering why they’re footing the bill for so much overtime when their taxes (to the tune of $45 billion a year) already go toward the state public employee’s salaries.

Image Credit: iStock

And get this – even though lifeguards do sign up for a dangerous job that’s high-stress in many scenarios, the majority of the top earners are not the same lifeguards who were awarded for their heroism.

For example, 2020 Medal of Valor winner Edward “Nick” Macko “only” earned $134,144 that year, ranking 167th out of 1001 employees. He earned the medal by jumping into rough waters in a remote gorge in order to pull a man to safety, saving him from potentially crushing his skull on razor-sharp rocks.

The 2019 winners, Shaun Gudmundsson and Ruben Carmona, earned “just” $165,761 and $194,919 respectively. The performed a dangerous nighttime rescue of two trapped fishermen as hurricane conditions affected both tides and surf.

Image Credit: iStock

If you’re wondering, only two of the top twenty highest earners were women, and no, pool lifeguards don’t make nearly as much – only around $50K including all of their pay and benefits.

Still, it’s a much more lucrative gig that I ever imagined.

And you can still work on your tan while you scan the waters waiting to be a hero.

That’s allowed, right?

13 Crazy Loopholes That Prove Their Are No Rules

Rules can be funny. Some people relish playing by them, others love to flaunt them at every opportunity, and others kind of walk the line, picking and choosing which apply to them based on the moment.

People Talk About Their Wildest “Beyond Tired” Behaviors

Not getting enough sleep can take a huge toll on every aspect of your life.

Most of us aren’t getting enough of it, either because of work, life, or staying up out of revenge despite being tired.

Different people can function on different amounts of sleep, but at some point we all hit that moment when it’s obvious that we better catch some Z’s.

Here are 10 people who have surpassed that point.

1. Laundry is basically just “clothes recycling”

And sometimes I want to throw my dirty clothes away too.

I'm so tired that I just threw my dirty clothes in the garbage and my empty chip bag in the laundry basket.

Image credit: Whisper

2. Politeness to inanimate objects

If they’d said “Sorry,” we’d have just assumed they were Canadian.

This morning I was so tired that I thanked the elevator on my way out.

Image credit: Whisper

3. Been there, but you have to be careful

Apparently this can get very expensive.

I just dropped my phone on my face but I'm so tired that I just let it sit there on my face for a few minutes...

Image credit: Whisper

4. Autopilot is a tricky thing

It’s one more reason I don’t want a smart house.
Too. Many. Codes.

I'm so tired that I put my phone password in the microwave to heat up pizza. I need a break.

Image credit: Whisper

5. I like that it’s a someTHING and not a someONE

Tell the truth, were you flipping off the masses while drinking tea?

I was so tired that when I went to flip something off I violently stuck up my pinkie

Image credit: Whisper

6. It has a certain ring to it

And makes about as much sense as leggings so why not?

The other night when I was really tired I referred to my legs as 'skin pants'

Image credit: Whisper

7. I’ll see your exhaustion and raise you one

Because when I’m really tired, I don’t even hear the alarm.

Today I woke up and I was so tired that I thought my hand was my alarm. I stayed in bed for 10 minutes trying to shut my hand off 😑

Image credit: Whisper

8. They might be more than tired

That one is a little hard to fathom! I need more details.

I'm so tired that I put my headphones in my nose and started crying because I thought I went deaf.

Image credit: Whisper

9. This one doesn’t seem ridiculous to me

If you can blow on things to cool them down, why not to warm them up?

I was so tired that I blew on my ice cream to cool it off... I only noticed after it was all gone...

Image credit: Whisper

10. My favorite reaction of all time

Maybe the world would be a better place if we asked ourselves this more often.

Once I was so tired that when I saw my reflexion I asked out loud 'Who the f are you?'

Image credit: Whisper

Those people are all really tired, and honestly I worry about their overall health.

What’s the wildest thing you’ve done when you were uber-tired?

Times When People Uncovered Some Huge Loopholes

There are all kinds of loopholes in the world, I think – big, small, in between – and ones that can have a huge impact on the people who find them…or really small ones.

Most of us are willing to bend the rules in some circumstances, though, it’s just a question of how far and how big you’re willing to go.

These 12 people gave no f**ks about your rules, and honestly, it’s sometimes hard to blame them.

12. How do they live with themselves?

Also, man he’s got some good medication.

People Confess the Weird Facts They Love to Share with Folks

We’re all about facts and let me tell you, one of the best things about them is that there are always ones you haven’t heard coming down the pike. New ones, funny ones, shocking ones, and yes – weird ones – are just out there, waiting to come up in your presence for the first time.

If you’re up for some totally weird truths today, these 19 people have you covered – and trust me, you’re going to want to hear these.

19. Can you learn them all?

There are more ways to shuffle a deck of cards than there are atoms on Earth.

You can arrange a deck of cards into a new unique order once a second since the big bang and you wouldn’t even be 1% of the way through all possible combos today. Like, not even close to 1%.

I liked V-sauce’s analogy. If you were to measure the time to count 52 factorial seconds, first start at Earth’s equator. Every billion years that goes by, take one step forward. Once you walk completely around the Earth, take a drop of water out of the Pacific ocean and repeat. Once the ocean is dry, set down one sheet of paper, refill the ocean, and repeat the whole process again.

Once the stack of sheets of paper reaches the sun, knock it down and repeat the whole process again. Once you do that about one thousand times, you’d be almost a third of the way to being done counting.

18. Beware the coconuts.

Coconuts kill 103 people a year.

That’s more than many animals we’re traditionally scared of, too. I guess they’ve developed a taste for human flesh.

17. Totally random. Love it.

The dot on top of an i and a j is called a tittle.

16. He could have sprung for the good stuff.

The term “drink the kool-aid” is historically incorrect. Jim Jones used Flavor-aid.

What a cheapskate. What’s even the point of saving that money?

Not like he was gonna need it.

15. These are both amazing.

Technically speaking, a male ballet dancer is a ballerino.

Also, a single strand of spaghetti is a spaghetto.

(Spaghetto is also my favorite term for a rough Italian neighborhood).

14. It does seem questionable.

You have a ball sack because you need to have your balls at 34 degrees C to produce sperm but your body is 37 degrees. The sack keeps them farther away.

That’s also why your balls shrivel when you are cold. Gotta maintain homeostasis.

One of nature’s biggest failures. “The male humans need testicles. They have to be kept warm. But not that warm. Let’s just hang them outside in a thin sack made of skin, so everyone can see their weak point.”

13. Time is so weird.

The stegosaurus was extinct for about 90 million years before tyrannosaurus showed up, and the tyrannosaurus has been extinct for about 65 million years. We are much closer in time to the T Rex than the T Rex was to stegosaurs.

Also, Cleopatra was born closer to our time than she was to the building of the pyramids. Our perception of time is funny.

Oh! and adding on to this:

  • Oxford University has been around since 1096 (earliest evidence of teaching there)
  • In 1697, Martín de Ursúa launched an assault on the Itza capital Nojpetén and the last independent Maya city fell to the Spanish.
  • Oxford University and the Maya civilisation co-existed for about 600 years!

12. Solidarity.

There is a species of penguins called Adelie penguins in Antarctica that are so horny they will screw anything.

Examples include: female penguins, male penguins, injured penguins, dead bodies, dead fish, the freaking ground, basically anything that moves or doesn’t move.

11. Sharks have seen some things.

Sharks are older than trees. A lot older. 40 million years older.

Trees as we familiarly know them today — a primary trunk, large height, crown of leaves or fronds — didn’t appear on the planet until the late Devonian period, some 360 million years ago. You might be surprised to learn that sharks are older than trees as they’ve been around for at least 400 million years.

Weirder, I understand all coal formed during the time after trees appeared, but BEFORE the bacteria that breaks them down after they fell. No new coal has formed in a very long time. 100 million years?

10. They’re so squishy all over.

Babies don’t have kneecaps.

9. Poor little bunnies.

The average human erection has roughly about 130ml of blood in it, while the average rabbit has about 126ml in its entire body. So, there is more blood in your boner than in a bunny.

Also, did you know that a rabbit used to die every time a lady needed a pregnancy test?

8. The more you know.

All mammals over 3 kg (~6.5 pounds) pee for an average of 21 seconds with a full bladder, independent of body size. From a 2014 paper in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences:

Using high-speed videography and flow-rate measurement obtained at Zoo Atlanta, we discover that all mammals above 3 kg in weight empty their bladders over nearly constant duration of 21 ± 13 s. This feat is possible, because larger animals have longer urethras and thus, higher gravitational force and higher flow speed. Smaller mammals are challenged during urination by high viscous and capillary forces that limit their urine to single drops. Our findings reveal that the urethra is a flow-enhancing device, enabling the urinary system to be scaled up by a factor of 3,600 in volume without compromising its function. This study may help to diagnose urinary problems in animals as well as inspire the design of scalable hydrodynamic systems based on those in nature.

7. Cells blow my mind.

HEK 293 Cells

A scientist named “Alex Van der Eb” in netherlands made immortal cells, from the liver of an aborted human fetus in the 70’s.

Those cells have been producing our vaccines for the last 50 years.

I dont mean to spread this as misinformation, or as any correlation to the current pandemic. It’s just a super weird fact I knew.

6. I don’t understand how there are so many bedbugs then.

Female bedbugs lack a genital cavity, so the male bedbug has to literally STAB HIS DICK INTO THE FEMALE BEDBUGS STOMACH and then when they’re done screwing, that’s it.

But what makes it even MORE interesting, is that bedbugs are unable to tell the difference between other male and female bedbugs. Use your imagination a little for that one…….

5. Fungus is amazing!

Radiotrophic fungus was first discovered at the Chernobyl site in 1991, just after the collapse of the Soviet Union and the start of internationally-aided cleanup/containment efforts. Not so sure about right next to the Elephant’s Foot, but it was definitely found growing in large, flourishing colonies all throughout the site’s cooling water supply.

This fungus appears to use melanin – the same dark-brown pigment that gives humans all their various normal skin tones, except in much, much higher concentrations – to power sugar-producing reactions by deriving energy from nuclear decay the same way plants and cyanobacteria use the green pigment chlorophyll to synthesize sugars by deriving energy from (sun)light.

Basically, this stuff is a mold colony that has the most extreme tan ever, and uses it to eat radiation.

Similar fungi have been found accumulated on the exterior hulls of low-orbit spacecraft, and experiments were recently (2018-2019) conducted to begin investigating if the stuff could be used as shielding to protect astronauts from solar/cosmic radiation. Apparently, results were promising!

4. Sounds…fun?

Many species of snails and slugs are hermaphroditic – possessing fully functional male and female reproductive characteristics – and go about a similar process.

When mating, two “males” will wrestle each other / “joust” with their penises.

The loser of this contest becomes the “female” in the encounter, gets stabbed by the winner’s dick, and is impregnated.

3. Who would have thought?

Sloths can die of starvation with a full stomach.

Their gut bacteria is very temperature dependent. Due to Global Warming ™, the temp in the Caribbean can go below its more usual 23C down to about 20C at times, which will kill their digestive bacteria, so they can’t digest what they eat.

Sloths can’t regulate their body temperature well, so they can’t maintain an internal temp to stop this happening.

2. This all sounds right.

Your anus comprises either thirty-five or thirty-seven creases, resulting in a pattern as unique as your fingertips.

This discovery – first made by Salvador Dali – allowed for the development of an anus-examining smart toilet.

On the same topic, it turns out that humans are deuterostomes. This means that at the start of its development, an embryo goes through a stage during which its tissue folds back over itself, creating something called a blastopore. As maturation continues, this blastopore becomes the anus.

In short, you can make the argument that every person is an overgrown (and unique) a$$hole.

1. She really was a marvel.

Titanic was fitted with microphones for receiving underwater bell signals. With this system the sound of submarine bells was received through the hull of the vessel.

Submarine bells, used as fog signals, were located on lightships, at lighthouses, and even on some specially equipped buoys. They were actuated by electric signals, compressed air, or simply by wave motion.

Titanic had two submarine microphones on her hull, one on each side. These were the “ears” of the ship. By switching between the port and starboard microphones and comparing the volume of the bells, the navigation officer could determine the direction to the navigation aid. Sound travels much further through water than through air – these bells could be heard over 15 miles away through the headset.

A pretty cool way of navigating at a time when GPS and RADAR didn’t yet exist!

I’m so happy some of these are now tucked safely in my own fact arsenal.
