This bizarre Tumblr thread explains some of the strange stuff trees do that we don't. It's vaguely unsettling, and it's also beautiful. That last part about the grafters putting fruiting branches on non-fruiting trees was a trip. 

This is a prime example of one of those Tumblr threads that's just a beautiful mess of witty brilliance. The widely known song, "Mr. Brightside" gets a Star Wars-inspired twist, and the results are gold. 

If you've ever seen a cat look at you with longing or desperate hatred in its eyes for the simple act of not petting it so much or only feeding it as much as usual, you'll get what this Tumblr thread is on about. Here are some Tumblr comedy gems to keep the day moving, as well as more nuggets of gold from Tumblr's busy brains.

Literally, like a boss. Apparently, the story here goes in this particularly wild little Tumblr thread, that a boss' concerns about the museum's lack of security were being dismissed. So, the boss took matters into their own hands, and proved their point, by robbing the museum. Definite power play. 

Ah yes, another Tumblr user yet again proving why the world of Tumblr is full of countless comedic gems. It's a place that's filled to the brim with strange insights, and people falling down all kinds of weird rabbit holes. In this case, we've got a promising concept of a pizza delivery dude (apparently Rami Malek), who ends up navigating a world of different horror movies. Fun stuff.

These Tumblr users make quick work of addressing some glaring plot holes in people's approaches to the zombie apocalypse, in various movies/shows. Like, what about that body armor? Is that a potential life hack if we ever find ourselves living in the middle of a zombie apocalypse. 

This fun Tumblr thread highlights the ways that bros can bond together to accomplish seemingly simple tasks. By uniting brain cells and working together no mountain is too high for the bros to ascend. 

Sure, sometimes the truth is indeed stranger than fiction. That being said, we'd be very surprised if all these fun and absurd tidbits of "history knowledge" went on to be true. But hey, the world is a strange place, and human beings have acted out in all kinds of bizarre ways for a very long time. 

This fun short story is just the best. The main character ends up befriending the very monster that lived underneath his bed. Apparently the monster followed him around, and ended up crashing in a spot under the fridge. From there, the friendship develops between the two, and we even see the monster step up in quite the heroic moment. Love it. 

This is one of those quick and informative Tumblr threads that is just brimming with absurdity. Apparently the world hatched this thing, which was labelled the "Elephant's Foot", and that ended up possessing literal "Medusa" powers. Specifically, that you couldn't stare at it directly without meeting your demise. Wild. And to make matters even more wild (somehow), a mold came along and started chowing down on the lava-like material. 

This brief and helpful Tumblr thread breaks out the tips on how to bake that next glorious cake. Cake baking tricks are fun. 

When it comes to inside jokes among countries, it's actually fairly common to have a running gag about a town or place that doesn't exist. Tumblr hatches nuggets of gold from its busy brains, like this tumblr thread that makes history fun.

This fun Tumblr thread points out the strange and confusing nature of translating, on a galaxy-wide kind of scale. Specifically, how it could end up being quite the absurd process trying to list various deserts to a visiting alien, when they all end up translating to "desert desert." So, maybe humanity is "moon moon" then. 

This Tumblr list captures all the bizarre animals that Grandpa brought home over the span of his 67 year marriage to grandma. Clearly Grandpa enjoys a life of unpredictability, which would seem to have translated to the guy showing up at home with all kinds of unexpected, wild animals. 

Assigning silly identities and voices to those various thought streams that might pop up as invasive, and with a dark tone around them, can be helpful in riding out the process back toward peace. If you're able to step outside the thought when it pops up, recognize it as that, and not identify with the thought, it can almost end up being a game of sorts. Is the conspiracy theorist with the panicked strain piping up again from the back corridors of your mind? Maybe. 

Yay, more Tumblr gems. Here we are again with Tumblr doing what it does best: running the numbers on things we'd never expect to see someone making calculations for. Yes, we're talking about how it turns out that Ash Ketchum's rocking some kind of superhuman strength. Apparently as a 10-year-old, the kid is able to toss a log that weighs over 1,000 pounds. Okay, Ash. I see you.
