    Learning these float and don’t walk around on their little tippy tap feet was a big disappointment.

    The whole planet and everything in it is completely riddled with viruses. Better steer clear if you value your life. If they ever send you a message, delete it without reading a single word of it.

  This ignores how many viruses were incorporated in to our DNA though. They’re a little helpful. 😆

  LOL. You’re welcome!

  I like to think that viruses are just an inevitable consequence of having biochemical machines we call “life”.

  And pathogenic prions are our own, hardier, DIY version.

  Viruses are helpful. Life finds a way.
