I have 2 that I derped up on

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH they are pending still

 

Seriously though, koalas creep me out me. Their beady little eyes like stuffed animals but they're not. FOH.

Primates also scare me but fascinate me at the same time. I read something about how it's natural instinct to be afraid of things that are human-like but not humans. That, I have that. Creeps me the fuck out.

Guuyyyyss, all four of my pets just woke up from a dead sleep and ran to my bedroom, away from the living room where I am, and I'm pretty sure there's a monster now and I'm gonna die byeeee.

 

Hope you have some salt nearby.

 

Or there's an earthquake coming.

Koalas are fucking horrible animals. They have one of the smallest brain to body ratios of any mammal, additionally - their brains are smooth. A brain is folded to increase the surface area for neurons. If you present a koala with leaves plucked from a branch, laid on a flat surface, the koala will not recognize it as food. They are too thick to adapt their feeding behavior to cope with change. In a room full of potential food, they can literally starve to death. This is not the token of an animal that is winning at life. Speaking of stupidity and food, one of the likely reasons for their primitive brains is the fact that additionally to being poisonous, eucalyptus leaves (the only thing they eat) have almost no nutritional value. They can't afford the extra energy to think, they sleep more than 80% of their fucking lives. When they are awake all they do is eat, shit and occasionally scream like fucking satan. Because eucalyptus leaves hold such little nutritional value, koalas have to ferment the leaves in their guts for days on end. Unlike their brains, they have the largest hind gut to body ratio of any mammal. Many herbivorous mammals have adaptations to cope with harsh plant life taking its toll on their teeth, rodents for instance have teeth that never stop growing, some animals only have teeth on their lower jaw, grinding plant matter on bony plates in the tops of their mouths, others have enlarged molars that distribute the wear and break down plant matter more efficiently... Koalas are no exception, when their teeth erode down to nothing, they resolve the situation by starving to death, because they're fucking terrible animals. Being mammals, koalas raise their joeys on milk (admittedly, one of the lowest milk yields to body ratio... There's a trend here). When the young joey needs to transition from rich, nourishing substances like milk, to eucalyptus (a plant that seems to be making it abundantly clear that it doesn't want to be eaten), it finds it does not have the necessary gut flora to digest the leaves. To remedy this, the young joey begins nuzzling its mother's anus until she leaks a little diarrhea (actually fecal pap, slightly less digested), which he then proceeds to slurp on. This partially digested plant matter gives him just what he needs to start developing his digestive system. Of course, he may not even have needed to bother nuzzling his mother. She may have been suffering from incontinence. Why? Because koalas are riddled with chlamydia. In some areas the infection rate is 80% or higher. This statistic isn't helped by the fact that one of the few other activities koalas will spend their precious energy on is rape. Despite being seasonal breeders, males seem to either not know or care, and will simply overpower a female regardless of whether she is ovulating. If she fights back, he may drag them both out of the tree, which brings us full circle back to the brain: Koalas have a higher than average quantity of cerebrospinal fluid in their brains. This is to protect their brains from injury... should they fall from a tree. An animal so thick it has its own little built in special ed helmet. I fucking hate them.

Tldr; Koalas are stupid, leaky, STI riddled sex offenders. But, hey. They look cute. If you ignore the terrifying snake eyes and terrifying feet.

 

Sometimes they drop ones that are different pay.

 

It has been a busy day! Just played an hour of survey comet games....

 

these appear to be a straight up pay raise lol

 

No, it's always something realistic and plausible, because my brain knows that scares me so much more. When I was a kid, I'd see more supernatural things, but once I stopped being scared of that kind of stuff, I stopped seeing them in those type of nightmares too.

 

Maybe it's the Christmas spirit!

 

is it just me or do these take a lot of thought?

 

Just got a rejection: Canva Data Science - SCREENER: Curate Images - Reason: "poor quality"

Really? rejection on a qual hit? Already sent a message.

 

Well they posted nearly an hour ago and the batch didn't get gobbled instantly like usual, so I'm going to go ahead and say it's because they're bad.

 

What's the current record for how long it takes for a new requester to go downhill?
