My husband has stopped joking about his hair growing distinguished and started admitting it’s turning grey.
Now I feel old.
Funfact: HAL9000 singing “Daisy” when pulling circuit boards is a reference to the IBM 7094 using the first speech synth in 1961, which was just 7 years before the movie.
Ah, close but that’s actually Oscillation. Orgasm is when you juxtapose two concepts with opposite meanings in one word or phrase, often for humor…
It unlocked the cheats. So you could enter other codes, like Scourge and Mitzi, which gave infinite health and all weapons (or the reverse).
I played that game SO much, and was so terrible at it.
What is that supposed to represent???
“isn’t it amazing how Africa and South America seem to fit together? I wonder what caused that”
“I dunno, probably magic”
Wether or not Homer’s writings are part of the Epic Cycle is very much a matter of… strong opinions of historians. There’s good reasons to include them (They’re about the same thing) and not to (Written later, and not lost, like all the other ones, so it makes the discussions annoying). We only know about most of the epic cycle because people wrote about the poems and made summaries and cliffnotes.

Hey, fuck you too.
Wow, did that make my post any better like it did for you?

621·2 months agoOh it’s not raw. It spends between a day and a week in a barrel full of salt with some of its intestines. That way, the pancreatic enzymes can make the fish even tastier!

6·2 months agoThe only cow food I know that needs insect is clover and alfalfa. Grass, wheat and even soybeans do OK without.

8·2 months agoPotatoes do both. Potato seeds are produced from fertilizing potato flowers, and can then grow into new plants.
But they also spread asexually via tubers, which is way more convenient for farming.

991·2 months agoOk but,
Cows don’t require bees. The food that cows eat (wheat, grass, soy) either pollinates by wind or spreads by root. Soybean benefits, but doesn’t rely on, insect pollination. Alfalfa is pollinated by bees, as are most forms of clover.
Cocoa trees are pollinated by midges, not bees. And the rest of the shake comes from the above mentioned cows.
Lettuce also self-pollinates, though again insects help. Commercially, they’re not really used.
Tomatoes are commercially pollinated by shaking them, because commercial tomatoes are optimized for making food and are pretty shit at being plants.
Potatoes are basically the only major ingredient that is pollinated by bees. But that’s basically never used by anyone growing potatoes, since potatoes also spread asexually by tubers.
Stuff in this pic that IS pollinated by bees: the sugar beets that are potentially in everything (edit: nope, that’s wrong) but not the corn you can also use for sugar. Cucumber for the pickles. Some oil plants to fry in. Coconut or almond if you don’t want cow milk. Sesame seeds on the bun.

The problem is that “therapy” is so incredibly broad and most unprotected.
My cat definitely isn’t a psychiatrist, but as of 12 seconds ago she is a fully licensed therapist. Kindly fork over 8000 bucks in exchange for her bumping her forehead against your shin.
