i’m honestly kinda impressed that it’s this accurate, i certainly wouldn’t produce something this accurate after looking at a woman’s abdomen cut open, i’d be busy vomiting.

i’m a bit disappointed that it’s not like 10 bucks at least, like haha funny yes, but come on you can give them an actual reward for actual science
For me it’s strictly based on “does this thing make me want to scream like an old horror movie victim”
smol spiders i don’t give a shit about unless it looks like a tick in which case NOPE.
For larger spiders it depends entirely on what kind it is, stuff like orb weavers get a polite relocation to my balcony where they can hopefully set up shop to catch yucky flies and we can proceed to merrily ignore each other, jumping spiders get an actively friendly relocation to the balcony mostly so i don’t accidentally squish them, and basically anything else gets the boot and tissue.
Orb weavers really are the platonic ideal spider, you can literally just put two sticks on a plate and they’ll make a web there, then as long as you feed them they just keep sitting there indefinitely.
but like isn’t that the whole point of celsius? all you need to calibrate a C thermometer is some water: when it starts freezing it’s 0°C and when it’s boiling it’s 100°C, super simple and accessible.
It’s not like “the estimated average human body temperature” is particularly accurate, and surely no matter what you mix into water it won’t magically boil at the same temperature regardless of air pressure?
but is that dead or (at least recently) alive humans? for dead humans that’s about the same as just straight up water isn’t it?
honestly in most of europe even thirty degrees is fucking hot, here in the nordics 25°C is considered too hot

also like, is it really that hard to imagine that archeologists went “well this is a gay couple but uh, we can’t really say that, so let’s just informally agree that ‘close friends’ is euphemism for ‘gay couple’, okay?”
i’d say everyone should just try an all-round supplement for a while, and if that makes you feel like you’ve been reborn you know you had some sort of deficiency, and you can just try to identify it.
So like, they’re more of a temporary tool than a golden bullet, IMO
fibre is honestly really close to this, start eating more fibre and suddenly your stomach is your friend and you shit gracefully.
how is fahrenheit 1-100 for humans? 100 i can sorta see, most people have a body temp around ~37°C (though still, there’s about 1°C of variance…), but 0°F is very very cold and not exactly a temperature that many people encounter on a daily basis.
i certainly cannot think of anything more relevant to humans than the freezing and boiling points of water, most people encounter them often and it’s very easy to see when water starts freezing or boiling.
If you see ice outside you know the temp is below 0°C, when the water in your pot is boiling you know it’s at 100°C, it’s super fucking easy.
But the reference points for fahrenheit cannot intuitively be measured, 0°F has no obvious indicator, and 100°F can at best be vaguely inferred based on the air temps we can do work in, and even then you can really only reliably infer something like 30°C because that’s generally when humans start feeling like it’s too warm to do significant amounts of labour.
0 as the freezing point of water isn’t arbitrary though, and neither is boiling.
They’re both very useful reference points since water is universally available and you can easily tell when it freezes and boils, it makes it comparatively trivial and accessible to create your own thermometer which is likely to at least generally agree with someone else’s.
this is the one aspect where i kind of prefer imperial measurements for distance, basing measurements on the human body means everyone has easy access to a reference that is likely to be not too tremendously wrong.
Obviously not super relevant these days, but back in the day it was a pretty neat feature. Like fuck, it wasn’t that long ago that the meter and the kilogram were still defined by a SINGLE specific object kept in a climate controlled vault.
what the fuck is lg, using TVs as a unit of weight?
never learn how the sausage is made unless you’re going to work with sausage making.
both? both? both.
the real lichen is the friends we- oh god, oh god no jerry not you too
The bit about flowers creating different honey is VERY true, here in sweden it’s popular to make honey specifically from heather and it’s distinctly different from regular honey.
My dad favours clover honey.
i would wager crus/corpus cavernosum, judging from a modern diagram.
