press 5 and 6 in rapid succession for a cool surprise

here's a couple interesting videos on dinoflagellates (type of plankton)

spirulina mention!!

Arthrospira platensis, commonly known as spirulina, can take on discrete morphologies depending on environmental conditions: helical as the name implies but also linear! theyre shapechanging out here

Aureispira is a predatory bacterium which uses a heptameric "grappling hook" to catch prey and reel itself in then shotgun blast them to death with a type 6 secretion system

Actinosynnema can grow insane branching fractal mycelial hyphae-like synemata structures in agar medium and into the air. they found that guy in New Jersey!

ok those are 3 interesting bacteria whose names start with 'A' that I can think of rn

yes!

people seem to like tardigrades

huh... didn't know people could move their tongues that far back. mine can only go as far as almost to my uvula before it starts to pull at the bottom too much

yay good

but can you pick your nose with your tongue from the outside?

our holy father, hallo be thy name, may holly's tummy blight turn into a tummy bright n happy time. awomen

the ceasarian section procedure is called such in reference to caesar being stabbed

i did finish most of the smoothie just because i wanted to get my full value for my money

I know of no reason the Caesarean Treason should ever be forgot

That's fair-- there are many things people like that I don't like, and don't care to put in the effort to enjoying.

But I like videogames a lot and think they're a serious art form, and given how well beloved Soulslikes are, I wanted to think about them some more.

Maybe I will play Tunic again...

This is something I can appreciate and I am grateful for your perspective :D

Remember, remember, the ides of march, the et tu brute? and plot.

It's small and light and quite a delight.

Rhyme alert!

Nope! It's small and light and quite a delight. I read the first half in one sitting -- not something I get to do often nowadays.

👀 I have been wanting to read Piranesi for ages, since I love Norrel and Strange, I'm surprised that it's that short (I thought it would be a doorstopper too). For what it's worth I have only heard good things about it, but I have so many unread books I would rather read those first, so I never actually get to new releases lol

the upgrade materials are bullshit for sure, especially in the earlier games. I didn't finish elden ring on my play but I managed to play it almost completely blind, compared to when I went through dark souls 1 where I used a lot of external help

And like... I see this pattern a lot where people get into this state of "other people like this but i don't and i'm missing out." Which is fair and makes sense. But there are so many different games out there tailored to so many different playstyles and tastes that you're going to miss out on something anyway! I started feeling a lot better once I let go of the games that looked interesting but knew I wouldn't enjoy. I also started finding more niche indie titles that really zeroed in on what I liked.
