Special Interests - Blog Posts

I love rediscovering my old interests bc I already know stuff about it but I get to learn/remember them again and fall in love with them on a deeper level

Sorry for infodumping about my special interest out of nowhere, you said a keyword and it activated my unskippable dialogue

she's a villainess??? wrong. she's my special little girl with her enriching little hobbies. only a few people died anyway

When a bloom of jellyfish get close to the surface, like really close, that's usually a sign of something wrong (usually things like over heating) (idk how to word it) within the waters they inhabite (if that makes sense)

A brine lake (I could be mistaken on the name), are much denser than the regular ocean water due to being higher in salt content, which causes them to be like separate(?) from the rest of the ocean, the only thing is due to the super high salt content creatures that go in it will face consequences, such as death

Mother octopuses will not eat or sleep in order to protect her eggs until they hatch which can take anywhere from 50 days to 7 months depending on the temperature of the water

Sperm whales, which are one of the loudest animals in the world, can produce sounds waves so powerful that it can cause your eardrums to burst as well as vibrate your body to death

Filter feeders like blue whales and whale sharks are incapable of swallowing us because their throats are too small

Unlike us humans whose hearts accelerate when we panic or get scared a narwhal's heart does the opposite and slows down. When panicked narwhals can essentially become so scared that their heart slows down enough to the point that it stops. When scientists are trying to help narwhals that are stuck under ice they have to be extra careful because of the consequences scaring a narwal has.

Mine was Monster High Dolls (though I’m still unsure if that one was a special interest), LPS (littlest pet shop), and rock collecting

There’s probably more, but I’m not sure

I can’t believe I forgot about mermaids 🤦 especially considering they were an interest of mine for the longest time

What was your old special interest you realized only years later it was a special interest?

Mine were collecting angel statues and A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens.

My boys

this has absolutely just….killed me- 😂

being knowledgeable about anything but maths is wild because i can explain the causes and effects of the Chernobyl disaster, read frequency response graphs, write comprehensive essays in hours and have an extensive Obsidian notetaking setup but god forbid i see a Number

Mfw one of my special interests is leftism but I can't talk about it to anyone I know:

Autism is just like, one day you watch something and your brain is just like "yup, I'm going to base my life around this for the foreseeable future"

hello :3 i forgot to make an intro post, so i’ll do that now.

my username is a placeholder right now until i think of something better.

i love drawing, collecting stuffed animals (especially build a bears and pillowfort weighted plush from target), vintage electronics/clothing/toys/etc, and watching youtube.

my special interests are my little pony: friendship is magic, psychology, genetic syndromes, true crime, cats, and disabilities. i love learning about disability aids !!

i have 4 cats at home. i have a girlfriend and she’s super awesome sauce :3. i love my mom.

i have GERD and i have joint problems which i suspect may be hypermobile ehlers danlos syndrome. it’s really hard to get into a doctor to do genetic testing, and i don’t want to take away time with a doctor from people who really need it. i try to deal with it by using braces for my knees, elbows, ankles, back, shoulders, and wrists.

thank you for listening! i will update this as i get more comfortable ^_^

“imagine caring so much about fiction” imagine being so lame that you scoff at the timeless human practice of falling in love with art and stories

Also like, even if the niche thing is a somewhat important part of their life, still what's the problem there lmao

what's so wrong about having a special interest and blogging about it a lot, lot's of people have them, that still doesn't make anyone less complex of a person

sorry to keep harping but the thing is. like. people pretty much universally have profoundly complex and richly textured lives outside of the internet. like everyone you'll ever meet will have their share of complicated relationships, personal struggles, identity issues, et cetera. and these people will likely have deep inner lives and senses of self that an outsider is not easily privy to yk. but then you get all these Posters with a superiority complex who log into the fandom blogging website, see a fandom blogger blogging about fandom, and for some reason forget that other human beings have a rich inner world and assume that this little niche interest site somehow represents the totality of the fandom blogger's life and that they can deduce some sort of damning portrait of a Life Consumed by Media from the fact that they sometimes blog about fandom on the fandom blogging website. and then they make stupid ass posts like the aforementioned. it's so pretentious and self important and mean spirited with zero substance.
