cassiopea, otherwise known as upside down jellyfish, have a symbiotic relationship with photosynthetic dinoflagellates, whom they protect, and who in turn provide them with energy, provided they aren’t sheltering the sunlight. but by exposing their underside to the sun, the occasional carrier crab is able to grab hold of them for use as cover and protection. apparently the jellyfish don’t much mind, so long as the dinoflagellates have their sunlight.

honestly really digging the new trend on this site to say ‘new [organism] dropped’ in response to any announcement of a new species. it helps spread the word of new-to-science organisms, yeah, but also it’s just really, really funny

Chaotic academia is

1.) Intense obsessions that last maybe two weeks but consume your soul

2.) Spacing out in class but loving to learn

3.) Swearing and slang while discussing deep academic topics

the reason why other ppl with learning/developmental disabilities can't read like they did in middle school & high school was because books were the easiest way to access serotonin & dopamine since you weren't allowed to use your phone, & they also gave you something to hyperfocus on as a means of mental escape. entering college & the adult world means you can freely use your tech so you can access serotonin/dopamine faster, making books seem less "interesting" in comparison when in reality your mind is just used to the instant gratification, which isn't bad at all. it's like making your own dinner vs ordering out.

Me: …The hell is it called the ‘drawing room’ for? Was drawing really such a wide-spread hobby, and if so, why do I never see any art equipment in the reconstructions of any of these rooms?

Historian, curator and documentary presenter Dr Lucy Wosley: Actually it was originally called the ‘withdrawing room’, as in the place one withdrew to, and where only family and important guests were allowed to enter. The name got shortened over time.

Me: Oooooohhhh
