Anonymous asked: This might be a silly question, but do you happen to have any pictures of Mamoru in his trendy outfits from the 90's anime? I wanna do something creative and I need some reference pictures. Thanks in advance if you find some.
Not a silly question at all! In fact, maybe one of the only questions I am qualified to answer. And I would love to see what you create from this! I present to you: Mamoru’s Greatest 90s Fashion Hits. (Sidenote: Many of these caps are from @sailorcivilian, the most organized Sailor Moon fashion blog ever to roam the earth. Check it out!)

The best reddit thread I’ve ever seen was when someone asked if the gang from Always Sunny in Philadelphia could kill Darth Maul and almost all of the responses were over 4 paragraphs long
Unusually for salamanders, hellbenders engage in external fertilisation. Male hellbenders will seek out the perfect flat rock under which to dig a nesting burrow, and will defend it viciously from other males. When a female approaches, the male will coax her inside to lay her eggs, which he will then fertilize. A single female can lay up to 200 eggs, connected by five cords, and one male’s burrow can contain almost 2000 eggs at once. The male will guard the eggs in the two or three months it takes them to hatch, standing over them and rocking his body and undulating his skin folds to keep water flowing over his clutch, keeping them oxygenated. When the larvae hatch, they are all but limbless and subsist on a large yolk sack for their first few months of life.
Sadly, the larvae have little chance of making it to adulthood. Aside from the adult hellbenders’ tendency towards cannibalism, hellbender larvae are particularly vulnerable to pollution and rising silt levels. Some zoos, such as the Toledo Zoo, are now raising hellbenders until they are about a year old before releasing them to the wild, greatly increasing their chance of survival.
