I love the air blade ones, tbh. So dry, so fast, feels nifty.

I would eat both (not either, both)

I would truly never listen to another word that person said. Embarrassing.

I appreciate that they ensured the ad accurately represents just how foamy the chicken nugget is

Honestly I have never quite understood why people photoshop western blots when it's trivial to make one that shows whatever you want and lie about it. (Then again, maybe we only catch the bad photoshops.)

The article doesn't mention the Emory Primate Center (new name for Yerkes), so I don't think so. And I haven't heard anything like that (though who is to say Emory would have any kind of announcement).

Wow, TIL but that makes sense about the lignin! The first bacteria to evolve to digest it must have just gone bananas

Are there a lot of tree fossils from that time?

(It's me, I'm recent grad. So happy to be leaving this place. Can't wait to inevitably discover more horrors at my future employers.)

I'm not really into donuts and such (sacrilege, I know) but damn that one looks really good

This was the math I was trying to do while reading! Like... Ten years, she's 32... Uh oh. Then I looked up how old Lizza is, because he was writing as though he's "definitely 100% normal, it's just everyone else who is bad." Uh oh again!
