This is heavily dependent on the community and what you post. In general, more content is going to be good for all of us, so post away. There are some power posters here with agendas who are annoying AF, but I've blocked the ones I've noticed and no longer see their content. Some have been banned across instances.

This isn't parasitism, because the female anglerfish gains fecundity. Also parasitism, mutualism, etc. are used to describe inter-species relationships, not intra-species relationships.

First 42 minute @robotaxi ride complete! Follow along on this ride with me and I’ve got some observations and things to talk about along the way!

This ride was almost perfect but I did have one instance of the safety driver having to intervene at a rail road crossing, which I discuss in the video.

Im already on to the second ride but wanted to share this with yo now!

The ride was great! I only almost died once! I love Tesla!

Oh my god who are these people

"The Ants" isn't casual reading, it's a dense compendium of everything known about ants, covering every known genus and their morphology and behavior. There's a key, too, so you can identify ants based on their morphology, assuming you ever feel like counting antennomeres or tarsal segments.

E.O. Wilson is a monster scientist. His book "The Ants" is mind-bogglingly thorough

"Safe" as far as legislative appropriations. That's not going to stop Trump from capriciously firing or laying off swathes of people
