They are a single orifice kind of animal. Take a gulp of sea water, sift oit the goodies, and expel the rest

The badger moniker comes from lead miners that initially settled the Wisconsin territory. They often didn’t even bother building homes at first and just lived in their wildcat lead mines, like a badger.

Don’t mind me. I’m jist digging through my post history to give a big fat “I told you so” to all the liberals on Lemmy.

Started to feel bad at work and then drove home on the worlds first acid trip.

I have a friend who does forestry for an electric company. He just ran into his first lantern flys in central Ohio yesterday. Fun times ahead

Every year you get warned “dont pipette by mouth” because you will sometimes find some 120 year old lab guide that says “pipette by mouth 13ml of 3M NaOh”. Those og chemists went hard.

I chose the dirty pipettes from the organic chemistry lab!

I call it “stand and deliver”

No audit is well intended. The whole ppint of an audit is to find duplicitous and fucked up shit.

Right now i am waiting tables, so black slacks/ jeans, black undershirt, and either a black polo or dress shirt depending on the weather

Suddenly it’s not so cool when another man steals your wife

Arenyou gonna start calling Ceres, Haumea, Makemake, and Orcus planets?

We went through this 150 years ago ehen the asteroid belt was discovered. Every astronomer wanted credit for discovering a new planet, so at one point there were 15 before all the astronomers got together and said it was untenable.

Musk-ovites that want to take NASA’s budget and out it in Elon Musk’s pocket.

No, because they aren’t undergoing hydrogen fusion due to their insufficient mass.

The TLDR is that he couldn’t figure iut how to classify the fuckers because he didn’t have modern biology tools like genetic analysis, protein identification, or any molecular biology.

Same as nicotine. It keeps insects away

I work 12 hour shifts so my sink becomes an abomination the days i work. But get me stoned and I’ll have everything in the drying rack put away and everything in the sink cleaned.

Oil jas constant demand and the Saudis have so much of it that it costs them very little to drill for it and store it. And digging a new well doesn’t immediately flood the market with 4x the annual production of oil.

I’m not arguing against asteroid mining. I am saying that it is fundamentally impossible under our current capitalist system. That’s why there has been zero advances in the concept in iver a decade.

Asteroid mining is incompatible with current capitalism. Say you harvest an asteroid with 100,000 of platinum in it. You in theory now have trollions of dollars in platinum for the $40 billion you spent harvesting the asteroid, only you have now quadrupled the amount of platinum in the economy, crayering the price and totally ruining your company. It’s obviously a net good for humanity as a scarce resource is now abundant, but it is bad for capitalism because the ones who finaced the work are the biggest loser.

What is this app and why would i want my phone telling me about the sounds it heard?
