You know what, the high arctic probably looks similar to that prehistoric moss-covered landscape. Because moss is pretty much the only thing that can survive there (and some very small plants).

The joke would have worked a lot better if Larry’s friends were different shapes. There’s no visual reason why Larry is the only one that can act as the key.
When you do, please post a picture of her expression so we can compare with the fox’s.
No scholar would ever tell anyone else to become a scholar. More like “Run! Run while you can! Get away from this cursed existence!”
Gotta love oligotrophy. Some lichens grow inside rocks… definitely can’t replicate that in a lab (although not for lack of trying).
I think that fear is just one of the many responses humans like to stimulate. Spicy foods and deep massages? Fancy pain. Fireworks and laser shows? Fancy lights and colors. I wonder if it ties into the ability to remember that we survived the painful stimulus long enough to enjoy the aftermath, so we’re more likely to seek out that stimulus in the future? High risk = high reward kind of thing.
Also brings this to mind: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supernormal_stimulus
These sets of concentric shells contain a thin layer of positive mass tucked inside an outer layer of negative mass.
So how much evidence is there for negative mass, then? Sounds like just replacing one unknown with another.
I hope no mad scientist ever plays with that gene 😅
No mad scientists, just regular scientists working on regular fruit flies. What could go wrong?
It would be kind of nostalgic. Like the discussion forums of yore, where signatures were the place to shove quotes, statistics, awards, maybe a gif or two.
Agreed, look at all the natural variation that was lost. The newcomers don’t convey the same intensity of emotions.
P.S. “extant” means still in existence, I believe you meant “extinct” :)
Edit: I only now realize the image is also incorrectly labeled. It’s a perfectly understandable mistake, anyway.
I’ve noticed that too! I wonder if it’s some sort of watermark generated either by the meme generator program or by the website hosting the image. Anything I see on FB, for example, has these weird artifacts, or even entire words blanked out or garbled.
I hear where you’re coming from. I can’t even begin to imagine how tired you are after all these hardships. The fact that you’re still writing civil replies to the other person is commendable.
I would like to respectfully say that universal healthcare would have eliminated the need to navigate insurance denials and out of pocket maximums. If we add a more robust social safety net to the equation, you may also not have to worry about childcare and having to stretch yourself thin with work… Would eliminating these battles really not have brought qualitative changes (for the better) for your family?
Thank you for this beautiful example of using “defiantly” correctly!
What is the best way to get the latest Flash player is required for video playback of the day of the day of the day
… I have never written anything about Flash player or video playback, what the hell autocomplete?!
And leeches. Can’t forget the leeches.
Look up “thigh gap”. Not saying I agree with it, just that it’s a thing.
The stupid terminology in immunology made me hate it so much, even though the actual mechanics are fascinating. At some point my brain just reached saturation with all the CD proteins. Enough is enough!!!
The longer you press, the longer it gets?
There are three feline modern constellations: Leo, Leo Minor, and Lynx. They’re adjacent, so they’re all visible around the same time.
Leo’s heliacal rising from mid-northern latitudes is around early September. Alternatively, it is most easily visible in the evening in early May. So either early May or early September could be considered the “cat days”!
