The biomes are what it says - not one species, not a few of them, whole fucking biomes! There are thousands and thousands species, bacterial worlds inside of us, and the species interact in complicated ways. It’s not just the presence or absence of a species that is beneficial, it’s often a question of combination of species that makes a huge difference. As was said, we’re just beginning to understand. But I’d bet any treatment that makes the system simple will have some serious downsides that will appear later, when we know better.

And? How’s that not a good insult?

Which s perfect for an insult. Insult is better when it’s caricature like.

I don’t think people using the phrase as an insult need to believe in IQ.

What do you mean? There are so many species that are kind of all about sex drive. All those insects that don’t even eat in their adult life, just fuck. Humans can’t compare!

Perhaps other civilizations would have a healthier outlook on sex and wouldn’t view it as perverse to produce porn, rather as natural.

Now I really want to drink it and I don’t even have it :) Do you make a plain one or do you add any spices?
- Comment on Why does every commercial depiction of honey involve one of this things? Literally nobody has ever seen one of these in real life 3 weeks ago:
No, you don’t jave to, but you can :) If the honey is very runny and you don’t want to get it on the edge of the jar, it can be beneficial.
- Comment on Why does every commercial depiction of honey involve one of this things? Literally nobody has ever seen one of these in real life 3 weeks ago:
I find it excruciating to wait before the right dose of honey gets on my bread or into my tea. You have to let it drip - right? Or was I using it wrong? Therefore I prefer either a spoon or a knife. I also don’t let the jar open so I can’t keep the honey dripper in it and it’s quite wasteful if you should clean it everytime. And there’s no way to use it on cristalized honey, which has otherwise a very good texture for putting on bread. That’s why I gave up on using it. Did I overlook some major adventage? I still have it somewhere and I’m willing to give it another try.
- Comment on Why does every commercial depiction of honey involve one of this things? Literally nobody has ever seen one of these in real life 3 weeks ago:
From other comments, I think it’s specifically for getting runny honey into tea. A spoon can do that and a lot more, but doesn’t look so cool and specialized. I use a knife for applying to bread.

That IS a decent set up.

All of this can be said about a spoon too, though.

You’re allowed, but surely you’d be aware enough not to walk in your costume outside the set. The same goes for theatre or anything. An actor who thinks it’s a good idea to walk outside in a nazi costume has it coming, and that’s a good thing.

Better ensure perfect women/men equality before doing that, otherwise it leads to a big gender disbalance and high infanticide rate for girls, as was demonstrated in China.

Also most carnivores are oportunistic herbivores too. It’s not shocking enough, but it’s true.

- Comment on Is it normal to see this static when you close your eyes? 1 month ago:
Yes. And if you want to see something really cool, take a look at a clear blue sky. You’ll notice tiny dots of lighter color moving quickly following constant short trajectories. These are your own leucocytes moving through the capilars right in front of your retina. The brain compensates the darker color of the predominant red blood cells, so you can’t see the capilars, but the white blood cells are translucent, so they appear as lighter dots!

- Comment on It's OK to just like lemon water. 1 month ago:
Yep, we agree. I was just pointing out the overall pH doen not change, there are ways to avoid that. From the the previous comment it kimd of seemed as though if you put something acidic in, the overall acidity must increase, which is not the case, so I wanted to make sure random readers don’t get the wrong idea.
- Comment on It's OK to just like lemon water. 1 month ago:
The body maintains homeostasis. It cannot afford to change pH. It is capable to buffer pH by neat biochemical mechanisms.
