The stoplight loosejaw: it possibly uses its red photophore as 'night vision'; most deep sea organisms cant see red light.

It has lost the floor of its mouth so the jaws can shoot out without water resistance slowing them down.

Your regular reminder that people are *more* abusive under their wallet names and when their behavior is more public than they are while using a persistent pseudonym theconversation.com/online-anony...
The answer to online abuse is 100% not requiring people to use their real names to sign up. Not only does this not really prevent it (see Nextdoor and Facebook), many activists in repressive countries rely on anonymity to speak out. Removing this safeguard could cause real world harm.

"They wash their hands ten or more times per day!"

Okay, quick math; every day, I eat three meals. I use the bathroom... let's say five times? So that's eight daily activities, bare minimum, that require hand washing.

In what world is washing my hands two additional times symptomatic of something?
Right wingers are now freaking out because Gen-Z are... washing their hands. Outrageous!
