Worse, cat tongues are barbed and are actually abrasive. They can literally lick your face off given enough time.

Science Memes@mander.xyz•*confused flatfish noises*English
2·8 days agoHad a bunch of wolf spiders in the last shop i worked at as a welder. They have eye shine like cats and alligators. It was always easy to tell the wolf spiders from black widows even behind a dusty welding machine because you can see the little wolf spider eyes looking back at you.

Science Memes@mander.xyz•Name your favourite prehistoric tree.English
2·12 days agoHad a Gingko tree outside my childhood home up in Washington. We were right down the highway from Ginkgo Petrified Forest too. It was wild knowing a tree like the one at home stood just down the road ~ 16 MYA. Yeah, there aren’t a lot of gingkos in that park, and there’s plenty of other trees that have the same circumstance, but that gingko was special to me.

Actually uranium is a really bright yellow color. It’s called “yellowcake” during processing…
Well to be fair seals are a special kind of asshole among assholes. Some of the coast guard are chill, and the vast majority of the active forces are literally 18 and 19 year old children. Literally too useless to get an actual job. The only ones that stick around are either the assholes among assholes or the functionally unemployable.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What youtuber do you think had the biggest downfall?
12·2 months agoNot really “a” youtuber, but i thoroughly enjoyed watching roosterteeth crash and burn. I loved their goofy shit maybe 10 or 15 years ago, but goddamn the fame really went to their heads fast. Ray and Mikey and Jack were all mostly cool, but Geoff had this really toxic “failed jock” vibe that really put down everyone else for very little reason. Then you had straight up toxic narcissists join up over the years, then Ryan shitting the bed by trying to hook up with (possibly underage) fans. It all came crashing down hard. It started out as a fun group of gamers and quickly turned into this weird hazing/bullying/im more famous than you circlejerk.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What is this generations Nirvana, Limp Bizkit, Tupac, or Rage against the machine?
31·3 months agoYou’re missing the forest for the trees.
Mainstream appeal requires certain sacrifices, and message is one of the first things on the block. Representation on that scale requires backroom assurances that do not allow the system to be rebuked in the way you are looking to see. Sure, you can have outspoken individuals like Dave grohl or Tom Morello making their opinions known, but the Foo Fighters will still play in Israel if the paycheck is big enough. Doesn’t matter how much blood is under the stage, money talks.

Really anything in this genre. You’d be surprised at the observations made by people living on the streets or just generally down on their luck.

Today I Learned@lemmy.world•TIL there is a law called Marchetti's Constant. Humans only tolerate commutes of less than ~1 hour. Housing outside that limit will fail.English
3·4 months agoYou just have to get through during off hours. I worked with a guy in livermore who came up and around from turlock every day. If he left at 430, he would get in to work around 530. But if he left at 5, it would be 630 minimum, typically more like 7 or 730. I can’t imagine if he tried to get through during actual peak traffic. Homie would almost always leave early on Fridays and we didn’t blame him because it’d take him 3 hours to get home otherwise.
Iirc the closest modern day relative is some form of sea slug. How you go from spore to slug has got to be a wild journey
Happened all the time. It just depends on the environment. Check out basically anything on the “Tully monster” if you want to know more.
Tully monsters are actually even older than OPs fossil and we have no idea where they came from or where they went, from an evolutionary perspective.

Science Memes@mander.xyz•Finally a solution to the Königsberg Bridge problem.English
12·5 months agoWhat about an opposite bridge where you cross under the river? Some sort of tubular subterranean structure. We could call them opposite bridges.
A planet is a pen without fences. You just have to expand your perspective. You’ve obviously never interacted with a farmer in your life if you’ve never heard them brag about how many animals they have on the property. And those are just the ones they can count. Im sure some crazy farmer somewhere in India would be mad proud of how many rats he’s got running around. They’re holy in certain parts.
The pic says “of all the mammals on earth”. It’s exactly as i said with the pen, just scaled up to a 3d spherical planetary sized pen. The numbers I’m talking about don’t change.
There are WAY more rats than cows. Period. They’re on every continent except Antarctica, and there might be some weird subterranean prehistoric voles huddled around a hydrothermal vent pool or some shit.
OP just needs to add a qualifier to the graphic. Anything along the lines of “with respect to biomass” right at the start
Because the planet produces its own radiation. That much mass means this is less a “planet” and more of a proto star. It’s actually large enough to fuse deuterium if the right conditions arise. Pour enough hydrogen in there to raise the mass three of four times what it has now and it’d be comparable to our sun.
