incomprehensibleuniverse: imagineatoms: blahgorrhea: This is mean, but hilarious! This is total shit. You will never wish upon a star that’s a million years old because the furthest star from us in the Milky Way is about 70,000 light years away. And the chances of one that you can see already being dead are quite slim.  But the post is right in one sense. If you think your dreams are going to come true simply because you wish they would they might as well be dead In addition, “lightyears” is being used as a measurement of time when in fact, it’s a measurement of distance. Still hilarious regardless.

Leafy Sea Dragons

These stunning sea dragon pictures illuminate their mysterious beauty and extraordinary adaptations. The near-invisibility of their fins gives the sea dragons the appearance of floating seaweed that is drifting with the currents. Instead of scales, they have protective armor to ward off predators. The row of spines along their backs can also wound attackers. At other times they will curl into balls like porcupines in self defense. Truly extraordinary creatures.
