He must be protected at all costs

This was very confusing until an hour later when I saw that he’d dropped out

Love seeing Australian stuff in the wild

The video on Jan Hendrick Schön was what I thought of on opening the thread

I always forget everything that’s happened in the fortnight since I last saw her

If you gave me 1000 chances…I would not have guessed the end of that headline…

I didn’t for so long despite knowing about it, and now i cannot deal with YouTube without it

I mean, Colin Jost has a lot more than modest good looks…

I have back issues that make sitting and standing still for any length of period very painful. If I had the money to get a Vision Pro, I would genuinely consider moving from Android to Apple.

He is often quite cross^-sant so maybe you’re just picking up on that

(He’s actually a very sweet, friendly cat who only occasionally shoplifts for the thrill of it)

Later he might yell at us to summon the ceiling birds, before yelling at the ceiling birds

Yeah, a channel I follow has grown and pivoted from “making a video when they have a topic they care about”, which was still quite frequent, to “scheduled biweekly video on a topic interesting to the widest audience” and it’s really killed the magic.

Like, their choice and I wish them well, but it’s not for me anymore.

There’s also one in Sydney! No idea if the franchise is there. But I’m always a slut for eggs.

I didn’t mean to come across defensively and I apologise that I did! Your comment was rad and meant I looked up the cool, weird U turn nerve! Apparently the Supersaurus is estimated to have a RLN of 28m!

I hope you keep finding reasons to talk about topics you like and I’ll try to be mindful of how comments I make may not be coming across as I intend them to.

I adore the way you have phrased this

Oh, I’m aware that a trait surviving doesn’t necessarily mean it’s the best and I’m not trying to say that everything from the natural world is something you’d put in a design (you truly cannot understand how much I hate the human musculoskeletal system).

With that said, there are also a lot of really cool adaptions that can be utilised in R&D. My point was more a general comment about biomimicry being rad. Also, I think I was considering evolution as something of a…database that can be good to use when doing R&D.

Sorry if this isn’t very coherent…I’m meant to be asleep…

Also always happy to hear about weird quirks of evolution!

My husband’s work in R&D often involves him looking to nature to find ways to improve the efficiency of designs and materials. Evolution has done a lot of trial and error that often results in the most efficient way to deal with a problem, so giving a look to natural adaptions seems like a smart move.

And that’s why everything that we’ve designed to solve a problem in our house is a crab.

Yeah, the meme itself made me laugh out loud, but I almost didn’t save it because the word “bootyhole” gives me the creeps…

(Not to judge OP, or anyone who uses the word, this is a me problem)

I feel like the comparisons of chickens from the 1950s to those today really highlight this
