I don’t see anything impractical about the one that’s just an ordinary ammonite but with spikes.

The Mariella one also looks fairly normal, looks like a number of aquatic snail species

Studied Ichthyology in the early 2000’s and will never forget how much of my A&P coursework was on birds. And how the lab TAs were not at all impressed when I just called them all air fish.

logicbomb,

This reminds me of how Stephen Jay Gould concluded that there’s no such thing as a fish.

Bishma,
@Bishma@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

There’s also no such thing as a tree. Tree is a survival strategy, not a biological classification.

P.S. If you haven’t listened to the No Such Thing as a Fish podcast by the QI elves, you’re missing out.

The_v, to science_memes in Birding for Botanists

This meme is incorrect. A botatist would have names like:

“Little bastard who ate my Alyssum maritimum”

“Fucker who at the flower buds on my Forsythia europea”

“Little shithead who dug up my Lathyrus odoratus”

LongbottomLeaf,

Correct. Also,

“Poops seeds of…”

“Nests in…”

fireweed, to science_memes in Mustard brings all the boys to the yard.

Mustard and kale are also (among) the ultimate year-round crops. They shrug off winter in all but the coldest places like it’s not even happening. The brassica’s arch nemeses, aphids and the cabbage white caterpillar, die off in autumn. Brassicas even get tastier after a frost. Forget California lettuce; local winter greens ftw!

(Also part of the dead-of-winter greens gang: chicory/raddichio, lamb’s lettuce/corn salad/mâche, Claytonia/miner’s lettuce, spinach, cress, and sorrel)

A good nature documentary can definitely make me cry my eyes out over a poor little plant dying.

Why wouldn’t they 🪵(😅) = 💧🪵(😄)

davidgro,

Wood is found in nature, so that would be ln, “log” is usually base 10.

Still works tho, it’s a property of all logarithms, regardless of base.

We went on many more dates.

Why would you be “just walking on moss”? That’s not a thing.

DessertStorms,
@DessertStorms@kbin.social avatar

There is moss everywhere around here (UK), on pavements, paths, lawns.. Never mind in wooded and otherwise rural areas. Honestly it would seem harder to avoid occasionally walking on it..

logicbomb,

They didn’t say occasionally walking on it. They said just walking on it.

DessertStorms,
@DessertStorms@kbin.social avatar

"Just walking" is as casual as it can get, and you can't "occasionally" walk on something without also just walking on it.

You need a better user name, or a better hobby, either way, I'm out.

logicbomb,

“Walking” is a continuous action. They didn’t say “just stepping”.

By the way, it doesn’t matter to me whether other people get my jokes.

Good, otherwise you'd be in trouble...

Yes, because I’d be spending even more time explaining them to simpletons.
