Tree Bucket posted:Five-way symmetry in nature is just wrong. They are technically bilaterally symmetric, not rotationally symmetric. Geometrically it’s both, but they evolved from bilateral organisms with more conventional body plans, and this leads to quirks like having a preferred direction of travel. They don’t just lead with whichever limb is convenient.

Platystemon posted:They are technically bilaterally symmetric, not rotationally symmetric. Hm! I didn't know starfish have a "front." Suddenly I would like to know more about the evolution of starfish. e: the Wikipedia page for starfish is madness from start to finish. ee: " ...an endoskeleton of calcium carbonate components... [including] compound ossicles with forceps-like jaws ... [which] wave around on flexible stalks in response to physical or chemical stimuli while continually making biting movements." "...In some species such as Nepanthia belcheri, a large female can split in half and the resulting offspring are males. When these grow large enough they change back into females." "If one arm detects an attractive odour, it becomes dominant and temporarily over-rides the other arms to initiate movement towards the prey. The mechanism for this is not fully understood" Tree Bucket has a new favorite as of 01:42 on Mar 6, 2021 |

Cartoon Man posted:Kids are built like rubber bands till they get to their teenage years. yeah it's really helpful for when a kid falls off a 2 story playground structure when they've barely acquired a visual on it edit: if your kid hasn't glitched reality to skip 40 ft forward and 20 ft up just to immediately pitch themselves off the top, then you need to find cooler playgrounds hazardousmouse has a new favorite as of 18:05 on Mar 8, 2021 |

According to Marquez he stayed there for three days and nights. There is absolutely zero chance this guy is lying and was just in a brothel for 3 days.
