Snakes drink through a straw called their whole body.

everyone eat more vegetables NOW!!! and mention the last vegetable you ate in the tags so we're all on the buddy system. I'll start: bok choy

can I get a job as an editor but the only thing I do is correct when someone uses the word "prone" when they mean "supine"

jellyfish lifecycles piss me off a little bit

I want to see Eva "nuked Antarctica" Stratt fight John "nuked Melbourne" Gaius. In one corner we have slowly deliberately killing the Earth to save humanity. In the other we have wiping out humanity in revenge for killing the Earth. Ultimate boss battle.

#Stratt is EXACTLY John's type #he would have had the biggest hopeless crush on her and A— and M— would have given him endless shit about it #I know I set them up as diametrically opposed in the original post but that was only after John's breakdown spiral into paranoid psychosis #he and Stratt really had very similar goals—preserve as many human lives as possible #working with Easton would be a bitter pill to swallow but I think he'd manage #the real interesting part would be if he still developed necromancy #fuck man I think having Stratt to tell him where and how to apply his magic powers might fix him #I'm imagining her just walking up and knocking on the cow dome #and being like “I'm not here to talk about livestock Mr. [REDACTED]. I want to hear about suspended animation.” #John would not know what to do with himself it would be hilarious #meanwhile Grace is in the background like “THE CULTIST? WE'RE RECRUITING THE COW CULT GUY??” #and Stratt would tell him to stop being an asshole (again) #also very funny would be Stratt telling John to pack his bags and John immediately turning around and telling A— and M— to pack theirs #that would be a tense negotiation #bc Stratt would not be down for moving the whole cult to the Vat #no way no how #but John would have a strong argument that A— and M— were vital to the cryo project and as necessary as he was #the real dealmaking would be amnesty and an offramp for the rest of them #a negotiation probably mostly handled by A— and M— (via mayasaura)
