Darn it, you’re right. Well, someone can explain at some length how vile that makes me.

Well, I would, but I'm short on time - so just imagine that Snarf wrote this post...

Hey, @Snarf Zagyg , if you got off your lazy butt and trained an LMM in your posts, you could have it write more while you take a well-deserved vacation.

Today I learned that the chemical that produces light, in bio-luminescent organisms, is called luciferan. Because of course it is.

Today I learned of the narluga, a narwhal/beluga hybrid. About a dozen of them live in the wild and seven are in captivity. They seem to exist due to climate change making both species encounter each other more often.

Whoa. That’s cool.

I got to see a liger once at the Ren Faire. That thing was frackin' huuuuge...

I'll be really impressed, though, when somebody discovers actual jackalopes out in the wild.

TIL about the antinatalism movement and efilism.

Antinatalism is the belief that having children is inherently immoral, and seek extinction of the human race. Efilism is anti-life, hence the name ("efil" is "life" backwards), and it's essentially antinatalism applied to all living beings.

I'm not a mod, obviously, but given recent events this probably isn't a great subject for EN World.

Today I learned that an overweight and out of shape 55 year old white man can successfully parkour in his dreams.

Given that I've never been interested in parkour and it hasn't come up in my life in more than a year, I have no idea why my mind would go there.
