Even Bush looks competent compared to the orange clown. This sucks.

That’s great and I agree, but that’s not what we have now. What would you have them do differently in this particular situation with the resources, challenges, and restrictions we actually have, not what we want to have?

Glad I saw this, time to hit the comics tab. New Oglaf just dropped!

I still like FF12, although I’ve never beaten it. I had no idea people disliked it.

Same. I just switched a few months back. My laptop runs cool and quiet on Linux. When I need to boot to Windows, I hear that poor cooling fan laboring even when Windows is idle, plus everything is much slower and poorly organized. Why does my context menu have 14 selections?! Going back to Linux feels like coming home.

I love your commentary, I’m glad you’ll stick around!

Functional changes in coloration are much “easier” (read: more likely) to develop through random mutation than functional changes to complex mechanical structures like bone structure or musculature. Given their predecessors were already under selective pressure by predation for millions of years prior, it’s reasonable to assume they’d developed countershading (light bottom, dark top). Plus current agnathans are usually pretty dull.

Edit: oh geez, I misunderstood your message. It totally could have been a rainbow party blimp. That mostly depends on what their habitat was like.

Definitely. The minimum infective dose is around 10-100 million CFUs.

1+ for koreader, it’s so much better than the stock Kindle reader.
