What is this?!
Where did this come from?

And more importantly….
CAN I CATCH IT?

The answer to that is YES!

The New XKit Team proudly presents: Pokés.

Browse your dash, find and collect these little cuties by clicking on them!

Want to see your hardly earned Pokémon? Go to your XKit Control Panel and check Pokés’ settings page!

I won’t ask you if you’re a boy or a girl, but I will go and tell you: Gotta catch ‘em all! Be the first to finish the pokédex! (And don’t forget to show us once you managed to capture them all!)

We have a lot planned for this extension, so be hype!

And like always, if you got any problems, don’t hesitate to either join our live support chat or with a github account our gitter chat!

Anything between 300-539 pixels width will be stretched to 540!

So 299 is the magic number to avoid tumblr blowing up your reaction images! What I also do is just set my canvas to 540 pixels and draw within that, if I think 299 pixels will be too small.

Of course, this only applies to the website and not the mobile app.

You’re a life savior.

good to know for artists posting their work too

‘Tree of life’ for 2.3 million species released

A first draft of the “tree of life” for the roughly 2.3 million named species of animals, plants, fungi and microbes – from platypuses to puffballs – has been released.

A collaborative effort among eleven institutions, the tree depicts the relationships among living things as they diverged from one another over time, tracing back to the beginning of life on Earth more than 3.5 billion years ago.

Tens of thousands of smaller trees have been published over the years for select branches of the tree of life – some containing upwards of 100,000 species – but this is the first time those results have been combined into a single tree that encompasses all of life. The end result is a digital resource that available free online for anyone to use or edit, much like a “Wikipedia” for evolutionary trees.

“This is the first real attempt to connect the dots and put it all together,” said principal investigator Karen Cranston of Duke University. “Think of it as Version 1.0.”

The current version of the tree – along with the underlying data and source code – is available to browse and download at https://tree.opentreeoflife.org.

It is also described in an article appearing Sept. 18 in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.

if anyone would like to learn a couple tricks for carving pumpkins:

– dont cut out the top to scoop out the seeds, cut out the bottom instead. this way the pumpkin doesnt cave in on itself and lasts longer
– sprinkle some cinnamon inside at the top after carving. this way when you put the candle in it smells like pumpkin pie

this is the quality content I wanna see on my dash

ok so there’s a game me and my friends play called “don’t get me started” and basically someone gives another person a random topic and they have to go on an angry rant about it and it’s the best thing that’s ever happened to us at parties and car rides so I highly recommend playing sometimes with your friends
