I’m happy you’re here. I’m new-ish to Lemmy too, but I’m pretty timid about posting. There are a handful of users I see posting regularly and they’re absolute pillars of the community. So I say go ham! If anyone gets tired of your awesome antics, they can just mute you.
Your stance brings me joy. I’m adopting it.
Subnautica has a long and beautiful OST. It’s been a long-time favorite of mine, and just a great instrumental jam to fuel my creativity lately. Stardew has my other favorite game soundtrack!
I thought about the rust too. Wouldn’t that mean their bite could give you tetanus on top of the hellish bacterial cocktail they have in their saliva?
And bloodworms have copper teeth! I guess they get it from the sediments they live in. That blew my mind, so finding this out about reptiles is so wild.
I think your shock and confusion is 100% valid. The whole point of trekking out to remote camping spot in a National Forest is usually to get the hell away from other people, is it not? That seems… rude at worst, and ignorant of them at best.
Came here to say Parasaurolophus. Apparently one well-preserved specimen allowed scientists to take a stab at what it sounded like… I wish I could hear what the soundscape was like 65 million years (or more) ago! https://piped.video/watch?v=QtpSOpUDCb8
