can i request the lyrics to numa numa? english doesn’t seem to tend towards reasonable structures, at least that i’ve seen so far, so i’m curious if this is any more reasonable

sure thing! this song had a lot of u's and o's that i had to remove, but even after that it does look different from english to me with a lot of i's, m's and n's, although that could also just be the repetition. also this song is an absolute bop!

protein guy analysis:

i absolutely love how this structure turned out. don't get me wrong, i don't think it looks like a "real, naturally evolved" protein in the slightest. there is a lot of diversity in how proteins look, but if this one were real, it would definitely be a pretty recognizable structure. this is mostly due to what i've decided to call "temu beta barrels", although i am taking alternate name suggestions. these rectangular tubes of beta sheets make sense from a computational perspective; there is a mix of polar and non polar residues so it makes sense to use beta sheets which have residues pointing in alternating directions, and parallel beta sheets are less stable, so more strands are needed, which works out well from the repetitive parts of the song. still, this looks nothing like beta barrels, which are one of my favourite structures and are made of a tube of twisted beta sheets. more so than most of the peptonominations i generate, i'm really curious about whether this would be stable in real life, and whether it would even be possible to synthesize and purify this.

The Mola Mola is the only (discovered) warm-blooded fish, right? From a biology stance, how wild is that?

Actually, you’re thinking of the moonfish (Opah) which does look kind of like an off-brand Mola Mola

But they’re not even really related to the Mola, instead they’re related to oarfish!

And yes, it is super weird that they are fully warm-blooded. Some other fish like tuna and certain sharks are “lukewarm-blooded”, where they’re able to heat up parts of their body to continue being active in cold water, but the Opah has a unique ability to heat its blood directly at the gills, which is where they lose the most heat to the cold water outside, keeping them fully toasty even in cold conditions!

A pike jumped out of the water likely chasing prey and got stuck in a branch and died. Now, a bird has made a nest in its mouth. One of the most interesting things I’ve seen.

it really is insane how waking up early will grant you access to some of the most beautiful sights and sensations in the world that will make you want to live forever, but only if you overcome the gauntlet of a thousand razors that is getting out of bed early. truly one of life's little saw traps.

It's stupid that bread goes bad so fast. Bread should last ten million years on your countertop. You should be able to feed yourself off the same loaf of bread from the day you are born to the day you die. They should pass down bread between generations like a family heirloom. There should be remnants of still-good bread after the heat death of the universe.

My boyfriend prefers his mattresses firm, and I need a soft mattress. He prefers his food temperate while I like my food hot and spicy. This is another good reason to not have a kid, because even if the kid averages out and prefers everything in the middle, there's the risk of some blonde bitch breaking into our house to rummage through our stuff.
