When a cosplayer recreates the horrible manga from Junji Ito

Japanese cosplayer Ikura is having fun recreating the horrible manga from Junji Ito, rightly regarded as one of the masters of horror manga. Ikura stages
herself into scary, frightening and sordid compositions, trying to
reproduce the images of the mangaka. Well, cosplay is far from being
reserved for the famous superheroes and popular manga characters! Source: ufunk

Holy crap she’s good at this.

one of my favourite linguistic phenomena/in-jokes is spanish potato chips being “ham-flavored, probably”

y’see because spain and portugal are so close, labels in stuff like food, shampoo, etc often come in portuguese as well as spanish

this brand of chips, Lay’s, displays the flavor in spanish and portuguese, resulting in ham-flavored chips looking like this:

with “jamón” being spanish and “presunto” being portuguese

however, “presunto” is also a spanish adjective, meaning “presumed” (or suspected)

so you have this in-joke going where spanish chips taste like ham, presumably

From the video description: “This desert kingsnake was hit by a car in Arizona, and a group of students came to its rescue.”

Rescue almost doesn’t begin to cover it. First off, this is a baby snake, only a couple months old. Second, the snake’s heart was outside his body and somehow the teacher managed to push it in and perform emergency surgery… and the snake survived. And is doing fine! He’s got a twitter! 

Whoaaaa. Not super gorey but fascinating.

This is super fascinating. Look at how the heart beats! Amazing the snake wasn’t injured beyond that.
