Salt, butter, a laurel leaf, a small stick of cinnamon, a branch of fresh oregano.

Yeah, that’s not depression, that’s just normal. 🤷‍♂️

Bird skeletons (or simply plucked birds) are seriously disturbing.

It’s incredible how much work feathers do when it comes to bird appearance.

Owls are cute and fluffy. Plucked owls are horrific alien nightmares from the outer dimensions.

Makes one wonder.

if dinosaurs are similar in breathing to humans

Current living dinosaurs are much more efficient at extracting oxygen from air than practically anything else in the planet.

Birds’ve got a unidirectional respiratory system that ensures oxygenated air is constantly flowing through their lungs (unlike, for instance, us mammals, who must empty our lungs of spent air before we can fill them again), and a system of air sacs to keep the air constantly flowing.

While fossil records of the earliest dinosaurs show no evidence of air sacs, later ones do, suggesting that bird-like respiratory systems evolved multiple times in parallel in different branches.

Sauropods in particular might have had even more complex air sac systems than modern birds, which could explain how they managed to grow so large (i.e., they were full of air, and might have been even more efficient when it comes to breathing, though their long necks might have offset the balance in the opposite direction).

Dinosaurs would have been perfectly fine with current oxygen levels.

We’re not talking dogs here.

We’re taking something much closer to birds. I.e., utter evil bastards. Probably smart, too.

No one in their right mind keeps cassowaries as pets, with very good reason.

It’s safe as long as you aren’t in daily constant contact with it or eat it.

Let me hit you in the head with a 5kg chunk of U-238 and then tell me it’s safe.

Throw 'em fast enough, they won’t have time to melt. 🤷‍♂️

It seems to be a reference to the N1 rocket’s track record.

Are haemorrhoids considered a bad omen…?

Atlanta!!!

Atlatl. Or simply spear-thrower.

It’s a bit like a fing-longer, but for your whole arm, and therefore more useful.

Same principle as the sling: they make your arm longer so the “hand” moves faster when you swing it, allowing you to throw stuff at higher and more lethal speeds, and farther.

We’re still quite lethal even without these tools though, just look at baseball pitchers.

Also our accuracy and reach when throwing stuff.

Especially when combined with our ability to make stuff sharp by banging it against other stuff and breaking it just the right way.

Android is the bastard that just rapes you and punches you in the face, unlike the other bastard, who rapes you and your cat and stabs you in the eye.

computers

Apple don’t make computers, they make wealth extractors.

It’d need some serious mental gymnastics to consider, say, raping babies not evil, though.

As for dualistic religions, they fail either the “can god prevent evil” or the “does god want to prevent evil” checks, therefore their gods either aren’t omnipotent or are themselves evil.

Any where you’re supposed to work instead of doomscroll and browse for memes…?

LLMs ain’t gonna replace programmers any time soon (they might get us laid off, but they’re not going to do our jobs no matter how much executives want them to), but they seem to have already replaced executives, though sadly without the laying off part.

It’s becoming more and more evident that these extremely harmful idiots (including CEOs and whatnot) have completely outsourced all their decision making and what little thinking they used to do onto LLMs.

We’re being ruled by vegetables parroting hallucinating autocomplete engines.

Personally I can’t wait (though I’m wondering how they’ll manage to make it look good in colour).

Not sure if adulthood or chronic depression.

Not sure there’s a difference.

I don’t know about Silverhand (not enough chrome, really, he’s just a natural asshole), but most Vs, definitely.
