A few semesters ago my senior seminar topic was Colorado native fishes, and the student who presented on this species quoted a podcast where the guest stated the fish possessed "luscious Mick Jagger lips" and that phrase comes to mind every single time I see one.
Despite lacking any teeth on their jaws, Colorado pikeminnows are the top native predators in the Colorado River basin. They do have long, curved teeth in their throat (pharyngeal teeth) that help them process prey (mostly fish, but whatever they can catch!) that they swallow whole #25DaysofFishmas

Just read the comments under every recipe online. People are seeing the words and sentences but not putting together what they mean in totality.
People don't understand what is meant by "literacy" and the "literacy crisis".
Literacy isn't just not being able to physically read. Many people know how to see words and say words, which is basic reading. Literacy is being able to infer the correct information from what you read.

I was a libertarian right up until I saw someone wearing an Obama mask over their monkey in a diaper costume.
Good on Penn Jillette. Having to come to terms with your entire political identity and philosophy being wrong is not easy and most people could never do it.

[glowing six-eyed lizard creature, i call him "pat"] so it's like every species has this petroleum gap they have to get over
[me] oh i know exactly what you mean
[pat] like you shoot up to industrial civilization status because of fossil fuels, and then there's like this timer running, can you use the free energy of the fossil fuels to transition to a better energy source before you either run out or wreck your climate
[me] we did the climate thing
[pat] yeah we were totally blindsided. we had a series of glacier formations trapping giant methane bubbles so we were off to feedback loop city before we even noticed the carbon ppm was rising
[me] we actually saw it coming. we had like 100 years between us figuring out that carbon was affecting our climate and the system first going nonlinear
[pat] oh damn how did you allocate your resources during that time
[me] *slowly takes a deep breath*

before AI the most embarrassing thing you could do in an internet argument was angrily post a photo of yourself flexing shirtless in the mirror
I decided that you lack the spirit to be worth further engagement, so I had the conversation w/ Gemini 3 Pro, instead.

They hide reasoning chains in public share URLs, so attaching a few screenshots to show ya.
Best of luck, Kathryn! <3
