    screenshot of a (fake) tweet by @UberFacts with text: “facts” posted on UberFacts are rarely factual.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeremy_(snail)

    these two snails mated with each other instead, producing 170 right-coiled snails. One of the left-coiled snails later mated with Jeremy, producing 56 offspring, all of which also had right-coiling shells.

    they also omitted this crucial detail:

    Jeremy was named after the left-wing British Labour politician Jeremy Corbyn, on account of it being a “lefty” snail, but also due to Corbyn’s reported love of gardening.

      You can love gardening and snails, they’re opposing forces

      Oh, to live in a polycule of 173 left leaning snails

    A perfect origin story of a villain.

    Jeremy then goes on a crime spree, but he was caught early on because he is a snail… with a left-coiled shell. The shell prints at the crime scenes helped narrow it down to him instantly.

      Him and the other two potential partners of him. But they have an alibi. Seems like they had a shell of a time (⁠⌐⁠■⁠-⁠■⁠)

      In shell
      Drawing pictures
      Of fence tops
      With him on top
      Lemon yellow sun
      Eyestalks raised in a V
      The dead lay in pools of pale blue below

      Scientists tried to give attention
      To the fact that his shell turned left
      Snail Jeremy the Wicked
      Ruled his world, but

      Jeremy didn’t get laid today
      Jeremy didn’t get laid today

      Clearly I remember
      Pickin’ on the boy
      Seemed a harmless little mollusc
      Oh, but we unleashed a hedgehog
      Gnashed his radula
      Shot darts at mantles
      How could I forget
      He hit me with a surprise bump
      My shell left hurtin’
      Oh, tipped right over
      Just like the day
      Like the day I heard

      Scientists tried to give affection
      But the boy was something she wouldn’t mate
      Snail Jeremy the Wicked
      Ruled his world

      Jeremy didn’t get laid today
      Jeremy didn’t get laid today
      Jeremy didn’t get laid today

      Try to forget this… (try to forget this)
      Try to erase this… (try to erase this)
      From the postdoc paper

      Jeremy didn’t get laid today
      Jeremy didn’t get laid today

      Based on a source from another comment, they kinda did.

    • ohwhatfollyisman@lemmy.world ⁨9⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      i don’t think they’d like performing in front of an audience. it’s hard, you see, for a snail to come out of its shell.
