Thanks Hank Green.
In the movie “Catch Me If You Can”, the french police officer that arrests Leonardo DiCaprio who is playing a young Frank Abagnale Jr. Is Frank Abagnale Jr.
Don’t know that. That’s kind of cool.
On Titan, you could strap on wings and fly around.
Moreover, the atmosphere is >5% natural gas, but without oxygen you can’t burn it. I suppose oxygen would be considered the fuel in that case and you’d pipeline that instead? And being able to breathe would be a nice side-benefit.
Early cycling laws and rights predate the invention of the automobile by decades. So it is actually the car that is the invasive newcomer.
Yeah, but it’s the cyclist that annoys me (more than cars. Cars do annoy me as well). At least the ones wearing a helmet and riding a street bike.
If they’re wearing a hoodie and a backpack I usually sympathize with them. They probably got jammed up and this is their only way to get to work, groceries, drugs, see someone, or whatever else they might need to go out for
Your view of cyclists contains a lot of assumptions that I don’t find likely to be true often enough to be actionable
Your pinkie is a perfect fit for your nostril.
Maybe yours is. Mine is more like the thumb.
All of mine fit in my nostrils (ed gang), and none of either of ours fit in my husband’s.
Hydrogen, if left on its own long enough, names itself.
How do you mean?
Over billions of years, hydrogen left on its own collapsed under gravity into stars, under went fusion, supernovaed, created all the heavier elements, formed secondary stars and rocky plants, evolved into creatures, which learnt chemistry and gave it a name. We’re all stardust + time basically. But we’re stardust that names itself.
That’s a wild way to think about the universe. Gonna steal this
The people who built the stone towns of Gobekli Tepe and Carahan Tepe in Anatolia in Turkey, built and lived their villages so long ago, that the very first historical civilization recognized as such, with cities and writing - the ancient Sumerians - are closer to us in time than to those hunter/gatherer people, who lived near the
AtlasTaurus Mountains foothills and the rivers and tributaries that eventually merge into the Eufrates further downstream.African Wild Dogs decide on when to go hunting by voting. If there is a supermajority of votes in favor of hunting, they will go out and hunt. If that quorum is not reached, they will stay home.
Dingo Suffrage is my new punk band name
We have a Lemmy instance for this kind of stuff: https://lemmy.world/c/fakebandnames
Count me in.
And a one 🎶 and a two 🎶 and a one, two - one two three four!
Somebody once told me…
That’s awesome! Maybe they should teach us some of their tricks…
How do they indicate yay or nah
They sneeze!
Amazing they can just like do that on demand like that! Sneezes are almost better than orgasms!
I think it’s quiet or sneeze
Another interesting fact: dogs also use sneezing to communicate, though not in the same way. I also easily trained my dogs to indicate yes or no by either licking their lips or not doing anything.
That giraffes exist. I’m a simple man, and giraffes are awesome.
I like Girafarig, the Pokamon
Its name is Girafarig, which is most of “giraffe” forward and backward
The mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell.

The time between the last living stegosaurus and the last living tyrannosaurus is greater that the time between the last tyrannosaurus and today.
Two, wasn’t it?

Did you know that, for every snake on Earth, there is one snake dick?
This assumes there is an exact 1:1 ratio of male to female snakes, which is almost certainly not the case.
deleted by creator
I’m aware. My point stands.
So does the snakes’.
I think the reference is to male snakes having a forked penis.
Two pieces of matter cannot exist at the exact same place at the exact same time.
Is this referring to the Pauli Exclusion Principle or just like macroscopic physical objects
There was an X-Files book I read when I was about 10 which says otherwise.
Fermion condensate
One side of the moon is always dark and therefore the other side is always light
I hope this is supposed to be a joke.
For a funner fact: the only time this is not true is during a lunar eclipse, where the Earth’s shadow means the entire moon is in shadow at once
