Potoo

The greatest bird you’ve never heard of.
Look them up.

they can also be called Nyctibius, and they either look like those penguins from Star Wars or have actual, real life googly eyes. More people need to know that they exist. Look them up, I beg of you

douche pontoon

A person achieves this maximum level after evolving from the form douche canoe. Only the douchiest of douche canoes can obtain this legendary final form. Proceed with caution, because standing close to them for long periods of time is more legal than bathing in nuclear waste.

Valid Postmodernism

The recognition that postmodernism, often dismissed as nihilistic or relativistic, contains valid insights about the nature of truth, power, and reality that are essential for navigating the contemporary world. Valid Postmodernism accepts the core postmodern critiques—that truth is constructed, that power shapes knowledge, that grand narratives are suspect—without collapsing into the conclusion that nothing is true or everything is permitted. It uses postmodern tools to clear away false certainties, expose hidden power, and open space for new possibilities, while retaining the ability to make judgments, take stands, and fight for what matters. Valid Postmodernism is postmodernism with a spine, critique with commitment, deconstruction with construction.
Example: "He'd dismissed postmodernism as nonsense, nihilism, the end of everything. Valid Postmodernism showed him otherwise: the tools of deconstruction could expose power, the critique of grand narratives could free him from dogma, the recognition that truth is constructed could make him humble. He didn't have to accept everything; he just had to question everything—including his own certainties."

Scientific Postmodernism

A much-misunderstood approach that applies postmodern critique to scientific practice: questioning grand narratives of inevitable progress, exposing the power relations embedded in knowledge production, deconstructing the binary oppositions that structure scientific thought (nature/culture, objective/subjective, fact/value), and attending to the marginalized voices excluded from scientific conversation. Scientific Postmodernism doesn't deny that science produces knowledge—it denies that this knowledge comes from nowhere, serves everyone equally, or stands outside history. It's science forced to look at its own reflection, and it makes some scientists very uncomfortable.
"You think science is pure truth-seeking? Scientific Postmodernism asks: who funded the research? Whose interests does it serve? Who wasn't in the room when methods were chosen? Who benefits from this 'neutral' finding? Not because science is bad—because pretending it's innocent is dangerous."
