  I thought so too, until I saw the truth.

  A waxy covering coats some blue-colored fruits — such as blueberries, dark grapes and certain plums. This wax contains a host of tiny structures, each less than a thousandth the thickness of a piece of paper. Such nanostructures scatter blue and ultraviolet (UV) light. To our eyes, that makes these fruits look blue. Birds — which can see UV light — probably see such delicious snacks as bluey-UV.

  But if you rub off the outer layer of wax, a blueberry no longer looks blue — or red. Instead, it’s completely dark, Rox Middleton says. Middleton is a physicist who works at the University of Bristol in England and at Dresden University of Technology in Germany. Structures in the fruits’ waxy outer layers create blue hues that are faux, her team now shows.

  Sadly, when you blend blueberries in a smoothie it turns your smoothie purple.

  Fun fact: if you want something to taste delicious, you go for blue. Blue food doesn’t exist in nature, so it is designed to taste delicious.

  So #5.

  Honestly, at this point, does it even matter that it’s being delayed for a few more months? It’s already been four years since Hardsuit Labs was removed from the project.

  A generic “you’re hot” wouldn’t have amounted to much.

  I was reading the debate at Lemmy NSFW about downvotes. There was a comment made by one of the content creators about lack of meaningful comments were kind of demoralizing. I try to give genuine compliments cause it’s not easy putting nude photos of yourself to the internet. The internet can be brutal place out there.

  Meaning upvotes and bland comments are nice however they don’t replace genuine human interactions that we all seek.

  Yeah, people think it’s easy to defraud Social Security. It’s hard pretending that I was born over 150 years ago.

  Shit, all the work I had to maintain that fraud. Fuck me, it was tough.
