Well, venomous snakes do have hollow teeth, but they work in reverse. This makes sense since there are venom glands, but sucking blood upwards would make it go…where? Funny to think about.

Circa 2008 the wikipedia entry for vampire bat claimed that their teeth were like this. archive.org didn’t capture it at that time, but another page copied the whole thing: https://www.mundoandino.com/Argentina/Vampire-bat

The bats incisor teeth are hollow, allowing them to suck blood in through the teeth like a straw, the saliva has several ingredients that prolong bleeding.

My favorite thing about this is: where does the blood go once it hits the top of the tooth? Into the gums? Into the sinuses? Out the back of the tooth and into the mouth, removing the need of a straw in the first place?

I do love a bean burrito, but you’re right. They’re way too expensive now. The green burrito got it’s return recently and that’s even more expensive, by frigging like 40%. It’s insane.

If they’re looking to build a relationship with Hunanese people, I hope these aliens are ready for spicy food.

Will Musk buy Bluesky for more or less than he bought Twitter?

My kid saw a hunchback costume in a Halloween book we’ve been reading at bedtime and he thinks I should be one. It seems a bit ableist, but it’s also as easy as throwing a cloak on and shoving a pillow under my shirt, so I guess I’m not opposed.

I will never get a kick out of the abrupt turn to his wikipedia entry

bruh the dig at the ICC

Hard to believe the epic thrash metal poster is a Mord fan.

It’s so good, but so hard. Here’s something that has helped me recently. I start a local Team Deathmatch, join red with a training sword, get into a corner next to a supply box, and then ` to get console and “AddBotsTeam 2 1”. It’s really helping me with my double parry/chain parry and keeping my vision processing more than 1 attack at a time. I’ll then give myself a real weapon and have 4 enemies at a time from the same place and just try to survive.

Yes

It’s sooooo good. Young/old Noah. Young/old Boris. So many amazing examples.

Dark

• This is the most intricate show ever. The Sistine Chapel of TV

The Wire

• The most real and relevant show. Much more than just a cop show. I would say this is the best bit of TV ever.

Colin From Accounts

• Hilarious. Kind of insane. First 5 minutes and I can’t believe what just happened. Makes me want to visit Australia.

The part about the bowl of water at the end is perfect.

Makes sense, thanks!

Very cool. I just watched a longplay and have to ask: what does alcohol do for you? I saw the player opt for it a couple of times, but I couldn’t notice a benefit.

And, who is the goblin vs who is channeling Marie Kondo changes depending on context. I will throw out shit that could be considered sentimental all the time, but I have chargers and hard drives from the 90s.

TIL, very helpful!

EDIT: Would be really helpful if I could filter out the 1 vote posts.
