Never seen the death of a ciliate like this-- usually it's too much pressure from the coverslip or too much osmotic pressure. But this gradual posterior-to-anterior "unzipping" effect amazed me !

In order of insane events I:

Used a glycerin suppository lax
Drank an osmotic lax
Took a stimulant lax

If there is anything left in my digestive system by the end of this I will do a salt purge. This is a threat, intestines, do you hear me

If social media didn't exist, you wouldn't just absorb these facts and this knowledge through some osmotic process. You simply wouldn't know a lot of them. You'd believe different things about the world, and your views about politics would likely be vastly different.

We previously proposed that MS ion channels in pollen grains serve as a “osmotic safety valves”, releasing ions to reduce turgor--but it looks like anion efflux through MSL8 regulates cell wall composition and growth dynamics! #PlantScience 🧪
Kudos to Josh Coomey for wrapping this up on his own!
Mechanosensitive ion channel MSL8 is required for oscillatory growth and cell wall dynamics in Arabidopsis pollen tubes

But even just two chapters in... I don't believe I am being uncharitable to my past self when I say that there is no way I took anything meaningful from this. Maybe it was still enriching/influential in some passive and osmotic way? Probably not, though

She knows if she pushes a RW type story line her future career opportunities are way better than just presenting the facts. She’s been sitting too close to Fatboi in the studio. Who know bring a racist bigoted prick is osmotic.

This power plant is used mostly to run the nearby desalination plant which then supplies concentrated salt water to make the osmotic power plant more efficient.

the downside about discord is that it moves too fast :( even though it's me being one of the people that makes it move too fast, it's hard for people to keep up with and osmotic learning doesn't happen the same way.

Japan's Osmotic Power Plant, Which Runs 24/7 on Nothing But Fresh Water and Seawater

Japan's plant is only the second of its kind worldwide, following one in Denmark that opened in 2023. Japan’s version is larger and marks a step forward for this little-used but promising renewable energy source

I'm sorry. I don't get it. You are going to run an osmotic power plant, mixing fresh and saltwater, and use that to power a *checks notes* desalination plant?

<looks it up>

Correction, I can just drink ocean water

No boiling necessary, no filtration, I can just go into the sea, fill up a water bottle, and we're good to go

...

We'll just assume that my SOULMASK is also an osmotic filter, and uh, that I'm filtering my entire town's water. With my mouth?
