What about the time scientists trained birds to fly while wearing tiny oxygen masks for the sole purpose of having them fly through a wind tunnel?

What about the time scientists attached tiny toothpicks to ant's legs to see if they counted their steps, because they would travel a longer distance if they did?
And then repeated the experiment but this time by chopping off part of their legs to see if they traveled a shorter distance?

I like these little pop things because they're nice to collect, they're not really impressive alone, but together they're a nice collection to show your love for a series.

Huh? Soda is like 90% water. Diet even more.

i think it was something about like, all the other ingredients offset the water? like water hydrates but x thing dehydrates and the combination kinda negates itself for the most part? maybe it's not like that for everyone though lol apparently my body does its own daisies thing. i dont know the actual science i was just told that by my chiro because when i was a kid i hated water and was trying to find a substitute to drink and he was just like 'eeeeeeeeeeh'
and i trust that he wasn't just being liek NO DRINK WATER lol because he wasn't an asshole

I thought it was the caffeine in soda that dehydrates you?

Nope. It's a myth. There might be other substances in the soda that might, but normal doses of caffeine does not have anything to do with it.

My yellow tabby in this week alone has killed 2 birds, a rabbit and most likely a bunch of other miscellaneous rodents that I never found/dad took care of.
I've never had a cat this good at killing things before and I'm not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing.

i would suggest either keeping it inside or putting a bell on it. outdoor cats are the #1 reason that a shitton of songbird species are going extinct. not to mention all the other hazards of outdoor living.

I'd already been getting triple digits this month. Not pleasant with Arkansas's typical humidity.

I'm sure I don't have to reiterate Florida's hellish summers. I'm looking forward to 3 months of 90s in temperature and humidity.

usually when you like, fly to a place you are like 'wow the climate is so different!'
florida is the only place i've been to where i walked out of the airport and went 'ah yes just like home'
why on earth do people choose to live in the south. get me out of here
