so a few months ago a surfer surfed the biggest wave ever surfed
and it was awesome and broke a world record and it was widely ignored for the most outrageous reason:
This is mesmerizing to watch.
i feel like the knowledge that there are some medical databases with free-to-use 3D scans of various human organs available for 3D printing would have drastically reduced tumblrs amount of bone stealing scandals. plus you can make ones that glow in the dark.
look at my glow in the dark humerus boy
instead of actually writing an essay.. i wrote a thing on how to write an essay (woah meta) & added some pictures of my plans so u can see what i actually mean!! enjoy my friends i hope this is useful to someone

An old ass hand process guide that I made that I never posted here. But meh, my hand process is still kind of the same steps. If you’ve ever got a guide or tutorial request thing, feel free to shoot at me, but I might not be able to get to it right away.
I’ve finished the animation, but have realized that using complicated colors isn’t a good idea, it is really better to concentrate on lines.
The name flashlight fishes usually refer to either the eyelight fish, Photoblepharon palpebratum, or the splitfin flashlight fish, Anomalops katoptron. Both are in the Beryciformes order of carnivorous, ray-finned fishes.

The most prominent feature of flashlight fishes are the large light organs present under each eye. Each sack contains colonies of bioluminescent bacteria which creates light simultaneously. The flashlight fishes are able to control the amount of light produced by either covering up the sack with a muscular flap, much like an eyelid or using rotational shutter-like mechanisms to rotate the sack inwards, essentially covering the light.

Commonly found in coral reefs and rocky regions of the eastern Indian and wider Pacific Oceans, it is one of the few shallow water species that can produce light. Predominantly nocturnal, they hide in caves and holes in the reef during the day. At night, they travel in schools far away from the reef surface, foraging for small planktonic prey for food.
It has been theorized that the light produced may help them locate and attract potential prey while allowing to communicate with other members of its species. They can also withdraw the light in the presence of predators to make a quick getaway
