I really love this because the fox is going "You better not keep that one, I look ridiculous."

Intellectually I am aware that there are people who don't like snakes, but I really can't understand how people don't think snakes are adorable.

There used to be a woman at some of the smaller Renaissance fairs who had a huge boa named Mona. This lady always wore low-hanging clothes, she'd get a massive sunburn, and Mona would lie on her breasts, soaking up all that lovely UV. Even my mother, who was terrified of snakes, brought herself to pet Mona. She was so scared, yet Mona stayed perfectly still, never even flicking her tongue. After a second they parted. For that moment, it was stunning to see how such a reptile could read a human and respond properly.

Hognose snakes make good pets because they are comically harmless. They are venomous, a little bit, but their venom does absolutely nothing to humans. Even then, they're the kind of snake that has the fangs at the back of the mouth instead of in front, so any part of a human is probably too big for it to even get its mouth around. Since they are so tiny, a hognose snake's main form of defense when it's frightened is not to bite you as per most snakes, but to flop over on its back and play dead until you go away. However, they are also not incredibly smart, so if a hognose snake is playing dead and you flip it back over, it'll go right back to being on its back and continue playing dead as if it thinks you didn't see it just blow its own cover. They're pretty great.

Fun fact. They've learned that snakes are effectively a kind of lizard, phyletically speaking. Like, rather than the squamates branching off into a lizard path and a snake path, it branched into several lizard paths, one of which includes the snakes. To put it another way, iguanas and bearded dragons are more closely related to snakes than they are to geckos. They first figured this out by looking at venom glands in lizards. Part of the reason they were so sure that they weren't that closely related is because all lizards that have poison glands have them in the lower jaws, while snakes have them in the upper jaws. Except when they looked at bearded dragons, they had glands in both jaws (though their venom is incredibly mild and has no effect on humans). Looking over the evolutionary record, it looks like an ancestor developed glands like the beardies, but then most descendants lost one set; the snakes in the lower jaw, the lizards in the upper. Genetic testing confirmed it. They've proposed a clade called toxicofera for them, though the name may change. So next time you see a snek and an iguana, know that they're cousins. Next time, we'll discuss how crocodilians are more closely related to birds than other reptiles.

You need Firefox 45 and up (because something broke it in previous versions) and you need Firefox' Tracking Protection disabled for the forums (because that blocks the Twitter image host). If you're using something else that blocks cross site requests and scripts, like uMatrix, Policeman, Ghostery, Noscript or whatever, then those might also need to have permissions set up to allow the Twitter embeds to work properly. I finally managed to track it down using your post as a starting point. Thanks. For some reason I had set "media.mediasource.mp4.enabled" to false in about :config. Setting it back to default has fixed everything - well until I rediscover what was broken in the first place. But that's a problem for tomorrow.

It's happening to me and I'm pretty sure it's the snake drinking (which is also hotlinked from Tumblr at that)

I've been chewed on by a hognose and my hand swelled up quiiittee a lot so that's not entirely accurate, otherwise yeah! Usually they just throw on giant dramatic tantrums (unless you're like me and smell like mice I guess, lol).
