I am definitely wearing striped thigh highs when I meet a god so we can be sock twins

Hell yes. These socks go anywhere: stay home where the wood(like) floor is at, you get to speed skate and drift the corners all day long on your way to the kitchen. Someone calls you up and wants to go out, you just need a cute dress and some patent leather shoes. Shit is awesome

These are the pro moves I'm here to learn. That is so perfect

I'm picturing a ghost realtor being super frustrated over not being able to get out from under this one unit because it's haunted by an angry human who occasionally haunts the residents by yelling obscenities at them

This is an example of the type of tongue-replacing creature you found, not necessarily the same species.

So that's a fun twofer: you know a possible name for what you saw, and you know that a parasite replacing a host's organ is one of nature's fun survival strategies!

It's a bad title. We've known about kleptosomes for a while, but this study talks more about how it works: how the stolen organelles are maintained by the animal and used as an energy source when there's no food. (Interestingly, when they start to break down the commandeered chloroplasts, the plasts degrade like they do in nature, leading to a color change for the slug!)

Being on your parents' insurance is its own safety net

This cat is perfect.

Update: This cat is so pretty, they make me want to hug my cats again, that's how perfect this cat is

 
 

I started off using different colors because I liked them. Turns out that my brain really likes this style of information organization, and it's helped me a bunch when it comes to learning and sticking with good design habits!

Notebook: Colorverse Nebula

Pens, L-R: Platinum Preppy (fine, Colorverse Brane), TWSBI Eco (broad, Birmingham Pen Co. Lightning Twinkle), Opus88 Mini (fine, Pilot Iroshizuku Yama-budo), and Bonecrusher (medium, Diamine Writers Blood)

Photo description: Stationery items on top of a large desk mat printed with a night forest scene. A Colorverse Nebula notebook is open to two pages of notes and drawings on tips for designing snap-fit joints on 3d printed objects, written in different ink colors. The notebook is surrounded by pencils (a Bic mechanical and Tombow 4H), a plastic pencil sharpener, and a test tube rack holding four fountain pens.

 

I just started playing Curse for the first time the other night, and the gameplay/mechanics have been so much fun. I've tried claws, machete, pistol, and whip so far, but I'd love to hear about which weapon combos or full builds you found the most fun! What all did you like about them?

 

I've been growing for my partner and me for a little over a year now, and have worked out most of the hiccups in my process. Now I'm looking to grow my favorite strain, Skywalker OG. I have no idea who the original breeder was; I was buying it in oil carts made by Crystal Clear out in Washington state, but stopped once the pandemic hit.

I've tried the Mephisto Skywalker and it wasn't the same, so I'm asking for help from the knowledgeable folks here. Please throw your recs my way! My preference is for autoflower (because I am not on top of stuff enough to do photos), but I mean, I have a small second tent...
