I don’t know why people on tumblr love to reblog quotes from Lolita. Eww.

Because its a brilliant work of literature and a profound, albeit disturbing anti-love story.

Today’s Class: Alliteration and Repeated Patterns

goaroving:

And the class winners are……

Category: alliteration in a sentence introducing yourselfr

First-place in alliteration from quiet, shy Katie: Katie kills kind kids.

Category: repeated patterns

First-place to the class’s united effort: Come on, baby, hug me tightly. Come here, darling, kiss me softly.

 

Why do students thing writing is boring again? 

Writing classes rule!

Their intelligence. Elephants understand that ivory is the reason they’re being killed. There are very, very few big bulls with big ivory left in the world, and the two or three still in Tsavo have become nocturnal. I’ve seen a bull with big tusks by the road turn his back, trying to hide the ivory. —

What’s the biggest misconception people have about elephants?

Daphne Sheldrick, interview in TIME Magazine, June 4, 2012

This makes me so sad.

(via unfriendlyjewishhottie)

Just like humans are either left or right handed, elephants have a dominant tusk that’s usually shorter than the other from being worn away. Now, elephants are purposefully grinding their tusks against trees and rocks to wear them out and shorten them. Many aren’t being born with long tusks or even tusks at all because those who survive maintain the genes that make their tusks virtually nonexistent. So through evolution and poaching, elephants are slowly losing their tusks all together.

anarchiapulchra: “We are part of nature, a product of a long evolutionary journey. To some degree, we carry the ancient oceans in our blood. … Our brains and nervous systems did not suddenly spring into existence without long antecedents in natural history. That which we most prize as integral to our humanity - our extraordinary capacity to think on complex conceptual levels - can be traced back to the nerve network of primitive invertebrates, the ganglia of a mollusk, the spinal cord of a fish, the brain of an amphibian, and the cerebral cortex of a primate.” ― Murray Bookchin, Defending the Earth: A Dialogue Between Murray Bookchin and Dave Foreman.
