  Can we please not start arguing in favor of eugenics?

  IMO it’s tragic to eat such an intelligent creature. Maybe stick to these guys…? Image

  Words in English that end in “-us” and pluralize to “-i” are from Latin, such as cactus/cacti or focus/focus. However, “octopus” is from Greek, and it’s correct pluralization from Greek would be “octopodes.” In English, we have also adopted “octopuses,” which fits our standard pluralization rules.

  So, “octopi” is actually a language mix up, though one that’s so common that it seems to be accepted in English.

  If we’re already taking about genitals, maybe I can ask if you know anything about the nerve endings in nipples? Two specific questions: first, touching them feels great to some people and awful to others. Why? Second, for someone to whom it feels good, the sensation is still really weird: it’s almost like there’s a ton of nerve endings but they’re not site specific. It’s not at all like poking yourself in the leg.

  I’m so out of my depth in this thread. Is this a real side effect of radiation?

  Or toxic! Don’t forget toxic.

  Cedar waxwings get drink on fermented mulberries and roll around on the ground.

  Aren’t they potentially linked to the global decline in testosterone? Too late, I guess, but I’ll still avoid obvious sources.

  NARF!

  Would love it if you commented in a week to share if there’ve been any changes. Good luck.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is this normal for girls or just a extreme edge case? (Serious question)⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  That bit about tampons isn’t true at all, and has nothing to do with virginity. Nothing fundamentally changed about your body when you had sex. You were just using tampons badly.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Boopable⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I have never been scared of snakes. They aren’t spooky, they don’t turn my stomach. The phobia has never made sense to me.

  But I think if I saw that thing slither by while diving I would get it. Huh.

  Weren’t science communicators talking about parts of speech in whale communication last year, too? They’re using AI to identify patterns and variations in speech.

  Here’s a general (though older) overview of whale language: www.britannica.com/…/the-language-of-whales

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What are some things you can do to maintain your teeth when you don't have health insurance amd can't afford dental care?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Sorry, but it just gets more expensive to care for them later. Aim for at least a yearly cleaning/exam so that they can catch issues before they become serious. Twice a year is better.

  And find a dentist that is conservative about fillings. My dentist almost never recommends procedures unless there is actual decay, and I trust them to not push work on me that I don’t need.

  What about sugar-free gum?

  Giving me Rugrats flashbacks. Remember the housewarming jello molds?

  Over it, or all over it? Those mean opposite things bc English is wack.

  Wow, do parents take shots at your door? This is not the Halloween I remember, but good on you.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I genuinely feel like I wouldn't live that differently even if I suddenly became ultra-wealthy. Am I kidding myself?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Like, the people who work to redo the high-end kitchens every couple of years, maintain the gardens, nanny the kids, and clean the toilets. Those normal people.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I genuinely feel like I wouldn't live that differently even if I suddenly became ultra-wealthy. Am I kidding myself?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Dunno bud, I’ve met and heard about a lot of rich people in my life (my partner builds high-end houses), and they’ve all been absolute assholes, though some more overly than others. I know exactly 2 nice rich people out of dozens.

  My theory is two-fold: one, to get rich you probably screwed somebody else over, and two, once you get rich you feel an inherent need to protect your resources without ever actually feeling satisfied (gated communities, voting for your own self-interest, suspicion towards normal people).

  I do think that having large sums of money almost always lead toward personal corruption, and I wish we all just had enough resources and societal support to be healthy and happy.
