@sawyerleeart I love the Karstmen, they seem interesting.

Right up my alley!

@Valomyrs_Decree @jesssdotmp4 Ana is chill with everyone, I’ve always liked her interaction with Roadhog.

@jesssdotmp4 I'm glad Ana is up to just go with some insane mass murderer

big fan of mauga interactions where it just sounds like he's in heat

@JesnCin I’m not entirely sure what that means. Are the Frozen movies turning Norwegian culture into a commodity? Did Mulan turn Chinese culture into a commodity? They’re telling stories that come from these cultures, are they not supposed to try and represent them?

@th3FatRat This is exactly what Disney is counting on. White productions that hire diverse talent as a shield from criticism. You *feel* like you're showing up for and supporting its stars, but you're also feeding into the machine that turns their cultures into a commodity.

Please watch the Hawaiian historical drama Chief of War instead. Support Polynesian art *led* by Polynesian talent.

@yiffinhell1 @JesnCin @genetic_monster Ok, but they are the leads in the film. They’re on all the posters and everything. And i promise you that The Rock is making more money on this film than the director and writer are.

@th3FatRat @JesnCin @genetic_monster The writers and director are not. Actors don't "lead" film productions, not usually

If you loved Project Hail Mary here are some film recs: The Martian (obvious rec!), Arrival (Amy Adams was SNUBBED), Interstellar (another obvious rec), & Sunshine (Cillian Murphy & Danny Boyle <3) please drop any others in the comments:

@guppiesz All you need to do is tell him to follow you then teleport to your home.

i love the pple that r like “this is a skill issue” and im like okay im sorry i didnt get my pokopia mechanical engineering degree at cal poly San Luis pallet town 😔

@zweiwalker89607 I believe this.

Been a while since I've read about the topic (so take this with a huge grain of salt) but last time I did, it was apparently found that young children seem to overwhelmingly exhibit some vague belief in a higher power. But it's not like that proves anything.

@Lex_cat11 The short eared fox, from the Amazon basin.

please give me animals I’ve probably never heard of I’m trying to compile a list of animals that most people have never seen before just for funsies

@HoodlumCallum Pokopia inspired me to do a playthrough of Scar/vi using one on my team for the first time.

One good thing about Pokopia is now we can associate Ditto with something other than the Day Care

Your body has an enzyme that can stop your cells from aging. You produce it as an embryo, and then your body shuts it off. On purpose. Because if your cells kept using it, they’d never stop dividing, and that’s literally what cancer is. About 85% of human cancers work by switching this enzyme back on. Lobsters never switch it off. Ever. They produce this thing, telomerase, in every single organ their entire lives. A 1998 lab study found it running in their liver, their heart, their muscles, everywhere. What it does is simple: every time a cell copies itself, the tips of your DNA fray a little, like the ends of a shoelace losing its plastic cap. Telomerase rebuilds those caps. In your body, most cells can’t do that, so they wear down and eventually die. That’s aging. Lobster cells just… keep going. And here’s the part that messes with me. They actually get more fertile as they age. A 1-pound female carries about 8,000 eggs. A 9-pound female can carry over 100,000. The grandmother in this video is hauling 70,000–80,000 eggs. In almost every other animal, reproduction slows down and stops as the body breaks down. Lobsters flip that completely. The older they get, the more babies they can have. They do still die. Just not from aging. Lobsters grow by cracking out of their entire shell and building a new one from scratch. Imagine doing that every year or two, and each time it costs more energy because you’re bigger. Eventually the molt itself is what kills them. Exhaustion. Or infection while the new shell is still soft. The oldest one anyone’s found, a 20-pound male named George, was about 140 years old when he got pulled up off Newfoundland in 2008. PETA got involved, and he was dropped back into the water near Kennebunkport, Maine. This female getting released isn’t random feel-good content, either. Maine has made it illegal to keep egg-bearing females since 1872. When a fisherman catches one, he cuts a V-shaped notch into her tail flipper before tossing her back. That notch makes her permanently off-limits, even years later when she’s caught again without visible eggs. A 2018 study found that V-notched females produce 9 times more eggs over their lifetime than unmarked ones. And the survival odds for lobster babies are terrible: out of every 50,000 eggs, maybe 2 make it to a size you could legally catch. One big, old, egg-loaded female like this one is worth more to the species than thousands of younger lobsters combined.

To elaborate: Project Hail Mary is an incredibly earnest film. It's about a guy who needs to save the world meeting an alien who also needs to save it's world. Because it has themes of friendship and self-sacrifice to save others, those with a reflexive jerk against anything sincere in sci-fi - everything must be couched in millennial irony and self-aware postmodernism - see it as gauche and "heartwarming", and because it has humour it's seen as 2013 Reddit. But it's really a fun, powerful film, great for adults and young people alike. The writing is very good, the cinematography a d effects are excellent, and it provides a more satisfying approach to themes which Interstellar tried to explore but struggled to. It's a very well-made film about the power of love and friendship. If that makes you want to hurl, so be it. It's probably not for you!

I was on my schools student council and we were never allowed soap dispensers in our bathrooms so I vehemently argued for it and finally got them in and then the first day we had them i saw someone scissor kick them off the wall and then we never got soap in our bathrooms again

@EvoSquareYT Did you think about making it a covered bridge? Either with glass or just a roof, to disguise the fact that people don’t actually cross it.

You can get my "functional"* lagoon bridge from the Jurassic World Evolution 3 workshop now! 9TG-MHG-JVZ (*thanks to hidden hyperloops guests can cross the lagoon. They can't walk on top!!) I've made the bridge super easy for you to recolor it to match your parks!

Happy 7th anniversary to the all time greatest soap headline x

@BenedictSpence Maybe you need to get your eyes checked, cus “Israel” and “Jews” are two different words.

He means he thinks the Jews in London set fire to their own ambulances for nefarious reasons. Presumably because his brain is leaking out of his ears.

In the 1980s we decided to become a nation of tenants, renting our entire country from the people we sold it to. I cannot understand how the terrible deal has went on as long as it has, and any party which denies this fact is a central cause of our problems seems so silly to me.

@oncloud_e I’ve been listening to an audiobook recently that is over 24 hours long. (Voyage by Stephen Baxter.) gods know hot long that took to record.

im narrating an entire audio book right now and my god i did not know how long that stuff took 💀 each chapter is like 25 minutes

@EvoSquareYT I don’t suppose that there is a way to get regular nests INto an aviery?

woke up to a dozen comments bragging "lol I knew this already" Ok? Then the tutorial isn't for you 😅 I first showed this trick in a video in October, but a lot of people still didn't know about it. The tuturial is for them. It's simple but it's cool & worth sharing! 💙
