- Comment on meat honey 1 week ago:
Spoiler
The vulture bee is sometimes said to produce a so-called “meat honey”, but this is a misnomer resulting from scientific uncertainty, due to historic confusion of multiple species, each with a slightly different method of processing.
In one detailed study of Trigona hypogea in Brazil, the vulture bees mixed sugary plant products with a proteinaceous paste from regurgitated meat, and let it mature to form a sweet substance that was used as food; however, the two resources were initially kept in separate “pots” in the colony, neither being true honey (i.e., not derived from nectar), but they were then mixed together.
In a different study of Trigona necrophaga in Panama, the bees gathered nectar and produced honey, and they also produced a glandular secretion, derived from carrion, partially metabolized, used as a protein source, and kept completely separate from the honey. In neither case were the bees mixing meat-based substances with floral-derived substances.

It would be better if the woke rap was performed by real musicians but then using this ai’s images so they could actually copyright the music.

Hopefully they are better at game publishing than they are at their website. I remember having to clear cookie and cache every single time I wanted to log in to my account, even if I was logged in only 5 minutes prior.

I left alone, my mind was blank
I needed time to think
To get the memories from my mind
