Compared to newborn marsupials we're cutie-patooties.

Don't give them ideas. I can see marketing people getting very excited at the concept of apps with distinct personalities. Suddenly the calculator on your phone is replaced with "Ask Eugene".

I stopped using Windows on my own machines many years ago. It was probably about the time when the games I was playing ran well enough, so dual booting was just taking up space I could use.

Are we sure they're destroyed?

That is not dead which can eternal lie,

And with strange aeons even death may die.

I never thought of it this way, because in my mind the arrow points to the cut. Now I'm probably going to start messing it up because deep down I know you're right.

I never heard of xenoparity before, this is fascinating.

Supposedly it only evolved about 5 million years ago, and some colonies still rely on external populations? Nature is constantly finding new ways to undermine our attempts to think we know how shit works.

I live next to a very popular MTB town. Everywhere I look it's adults going out on bike adventures. It's driving half the economy around here.

I was going to say Parabola, but you can get the same effect with DMT.

Is it always the same random point, or will I sometimes land in the bedroom of a confused and angry Albanian?

I recently saw a vid about these things. Another interesting thing they can do is voluntary decapitation. The head can survive and grow new organs, possibly because photosynthesis gives them the energy to keep going and growing.

I donated once, and the payment processor failed so it didn't even go through.

I still get the thankyou emails.

I'm such a phoney.
