the bare-throated bellbird is so loud that it can cause permanent damage to human hearing at close range!
and they absolutely look like it.
edit: i couldn’t resist
That felt too mild so may i present AAAAAA bird v2

These are cute but misleading, because the call doesn’t go on–it’s more like one single, quick, rusty beep, only that beep is one of the loudest sounds made by any land animal
oh i’m so glad you have a video of ‘em, I knew I had seen one before!
I have provided an updated funnypic to more accurately reflect the reality of the bird.
spn is so stupid. do you know funny it would be to see cas and crowley interact if destiel had gone fully, properly canon. the sheer unbridled bitchy schadenfreude cas would exude with just a simple “Hello, Crowley.” forget the homophobia this is straight up bad writing
my friends and I created a place named fifth street. it’s a…well. thats a good question. what is this place? (cw unreality, horror elements, descriptions of violence, death)
all of you getting “a street” are defintively dieing first in a horror movie. girl WATCH OUT

what i mean is: the house that hates you because it hates all of humanity because it is old, and abandoned, and left to rot. the house that tries to kill you because it doesn’t care what you intend or what you want and all it knows is that its purpose has gone ignored and then has changed, by degrees, with malicious intent derived from neglect. a house that sees you as threat and will not wait for you to draw first blood - or worse, to just… ignore it more. again. forever.
but also; what does it look like to meet that house halfway and work to better it. can you renovate it? can you find the hurt and heal it? is it Horror if it can be Fixed? but not fixed like it never happened, but fixed like we reinforced the crack in the east wall of the foundation, we re-bricked the fireplace with respect to its original style, we found the rot and - as gently as possible - removed it, grafted new tissue, applied bandages. can you rehabilitate a haunted house, and offer it love? or is it prideful to even try - because all you’re doing is setting it up for more failure and heartbreak in the future, after you die and it goes uncared for, neglected, again?
can you make a house that hates you love you without ensuring that it will hate again after you - because a house lives a long, long time after a human dies?
