That’s how they get ya.
Baby: “Teke-lili! Teke-lili!”
Woman (with a hideous smile): “SKREE!”
Human: “WTF?!?”
Woman’s arm curls around from beneath, grabbing the human by the throat.
Then the woman and the baby, they feed….
- Comment on How we are brought into this world 1 week ago:
The woman’s arm naturally grows that long so she can pull the baby out by herself if need be.

- Comment on publication maxxing 2 months ago:
I wish I knew this when I was starting out:
- write grant proposals instead of articles
- use the winning grants to support grad students
- get the grad students to do the research and writing which motivate new grant proposals
- keep writing grant proposals until the entire world is either your grad students, or people funding your research
- Comment on I am so scared of nuclear war, how do I cope with it? 2 months ago:
Most countries have some kind of “disaster preparedness” suggestions, be they for earthquakes, floods, tornados, WMDs, etc. A lot of these suggestions overlap: have a stock of food, know where important documents are, think about where you’d shelter, etc.
There will probably not be an extinction-level event. But at some point in your life you may experience an emergency where you need a stock of food, to know where your documents are, to have a place to shelter, etc. So maybe it’d help you out to make plans for what you’d do in case of a general emergency/disaster.
Here are a couple useful documents that were made in the US:

This reminds me of when I was a kid growing up (in developing nations), and people would show up from the US demanding all the same services that they had back home.

- Comment on at what point in life it's too late to go back to school? 2 months ago:
Was gonna say this. Some jobs will help pay for classes (max 1 at a time) and some will even let you take the classes “on company time.” With Distance Education this is easier than ever. I took classes while working for a couple years, then was gonna take a semester off work and finish a Master’s Degree. (but ended up doing a PhD instead.)

Traditional German food is supposed to make you sated so you can go back to the fields and work! And the go to the army and fight! And then go to the ruins and rebuild!
This is frickin awesome. Ima tell this to my German-American relative. They come from a family of farmers, come to think of it.

- Comment on Fun science fact 2 months ago:
It all makes sense now… You leave snacks out so when the Santa-maggots hatch in the darkness of their chimneys, they can crawl out and be fed. Also why lil kids must never wait and watch, lest the kids themselves be eaten.
