Thank you for posting, WRETCHED SORCERESS! This made me realise I have no idea what goes on at the bottom of the sea, those guys could get up to anything! You could tell me there's kilometres long bacteria and I would believe you

you're telling me a plain browned this rice?

that is a wild choice for an onion subject Lol

That was a really interesting read! The only macrosopic single-celled organism I knew of was Valonia ventricosa. Now I know of 2! Thank you again for this effortpost

my delicate heterosexual skull is not a baseball!

No as the down with cis bus had a bunch of people enter onto it, these people brought their own bikes.

you saw my pancakes

For sure! Biology is wonderful in that it will counter any assumption we make about it. Every rule, somewhere, is broken.

For the reverse kreb cycle, I typoed and said energy when I meant carbon! While we use the krebs cycle to generate units of energy currency, it used the reverse to make carbon from CO². It is a similar mechanism to how photosynthetic organisms use ambient carbon dioxide to make all of their biomass, but it is effectively running breathing in reverse to make its body.

It extracts energy from sulfides and nitrate, which is still really cool to me because these are inorganic materials. We think that all life is dependent on the sun/photosynthesis but you get chemoautotrophic exceptions like this and I love them.

I don't remember if the original movie was better but I do remember there was a spate of remakes of 80s action movies that completely missed the mark in this way. Like the 80s RoboCop is extremely clear that the corporation making the RoboCops is completely evil, and the merger of corporate power and the state is horrifically dangerous, and being a cop takes away your humanity and makes you a machine for the evil side.

Then they remade it and it was just a movie about a cool cop who's a robot and he shoots the bad guys.

I don’t have much to say other than….

That is so cool! I didn’t think there were any bacteria you could see with the naked eye

And im really curious how you can reverse the breathing process for a net gain in energy. I mean that really breaks my brain, it’s awesome

this sounds incredible, I will definitely try one of these out

I hate to say it but there have always been people (mostly men) who preferred their “partners” be too immature and dependent to stand up for themselves, along with other people willing to enable them. Fighting these creeps is never going to stop because they never went away, they just got quiet for a bit. It’s a process, not an end.

maybe "having sex with children is bad" was just a temporary thing during the obama presidency. .. i miss him...

Honestly I can’t stand Obama, but he does seem to be one of the best people to have held that office in at least 3 decades. The sad thing is he can claim this based on little more than being the only one of the lot without credible sexual assault accusations.
