Ok, now I know this is going to make me look stupid, but snowflakes really occur like this in nature? I thought these designs were part of the Christmas lexicon, pretty icons that took root in the holiday like Santa Claus and flying reindeer.

This poo poo blows my mind :monocle:

And us humans can only make artificial snow that looks like this

Nature is just so :allears:

To be boring - artificial snow looks like that because it is formed so quickly. The gorgeous, symmetrical shapes of most natural snow form because they have more time to crystallize and grow. The beautiful patterns formed are ones that minimize a number of physical factors, such as energy.

There's a lot of things in chemistry that you know you've done right if they end up looking amazing, and you've screwed up if they end up looking rubbish!

I am no good as a chihuahua source but I just found another excellent stern cat:



I think it's sternly admonishing the dandelions not to allow themselves to go to seed and encourage foolish humans to wish their lives away instead of pulling their socks up and making some changes.

Elias_Maluco posted:

I can't decide whether I'd rather view that as the capybara being the monkey's noble steed, or believe that the capybara is blind and the monkey helps it to navigate in the changing jungle landscape.
'Okay, up ahead, looks like someone dug a new hole, about as big as my head. You wanna try to step over it or go around it?'
'Hmm... go around.'
'Okay, bear left till I say stop.'

Can't guarantee these are all chihuahuas because I'm not great with dog breeds so if not; sorry they're the closest I've got.



Also this story about a 2-legged chihuahua and a chicken making friends was in one of our papers the other day and has some pretty good pics.

The monkey is steering a blind capybara by the eyelids.
