Idk what i was thinking but i can't do daily so i give up xd

ANYWAY i've found these fossils at the place i went to at Wednesday, the pointy one is a rostrum of a belemnite, the round one on the left next to it is an amonite and the upper two ones are brachiopods, they're all pretty cool.

Podle tradice začínala činnost Peruna s jarní bouří, kterou se příroda probouzí k novému životu. Prvnímu zahřmění se v lidových zvycích věnovala velká pozornost a spojovaly se s ním mnohé obřady, jako např. pohybování nádob ve světnici na znamení osvobození hromu ze zimního spánku, zatnutí sekery do země jako ochrana před bleskem atd. Slované přisuzovali předmětům zasaženým bleskem zvláštní léčivou moc a např. stromy, stejně tak i návrší, kde probíhaly při bouřích pravidelné atmosférické výboje, byly ohrazovány plotem či obehnány příkopem jako uctívaná místa s velkou koncentrací blahodárné síly. V této souvislosti pak rovněž sekera znamenala nástroj i zbraň se silným magickým ochranným účinkem proti nečistým silám a nemocem. Kladla se např. pod postel rodící ženy, na práh chléva či stáje, na poli měla v čase sklizně zamezit krupobití apod. Další Perunovu mocnou zbraň měly představovat hromové (kamenné) střely, tedy belemnity (zkameněliny měkkýšů ×) a fulgurity (sklovina vzniklá přetavením horniny). Jejich nález se považoval za dobré znamení a byly vkládány např. jako ochrana do kolíbek nemluvňat, do krovů střech před nebezpečím blesku či užívány k léčení očních chorob, uhranutí a pro snazší průběh porodu. ~ According to tradition, the activity of Perun began with the first spring storm, which awakens nature to new life. The first thunder was given great attention in folk customs and many ceremonies were associated with it, such as moving vessels in a room as a sign of releasing thunder from winter sleep, driving an ax into the ground as protection against lightning, etc. Slavs attributed special healing powers to objects struck by lightning and e.g. trees, as well as hilltops, where regular atmospheric discharges took place during storms, were enclosed by a fence or surrounded by a ditch and worshiped as places with a great concentration of beneficial power. In this context, an axe also meant a tool or a weapon with a strong magical protective effect against unclean forces and diseases. It was placed, for example, under the bed of a woman in labor, on the threshold of a barn or stable, in the field at harvest time to prevent hail, etc. Perun's other powerful weapon was supposed to be thunder (stone) projectiles, i.e. belemnites (fossils of molluscs ×) and fulgurites (glass formed by remelting the rock). Their discovery was considered a good sign and they were placed, for example, as protection in babies' cradles, in roof trusses against the danger of lightning, or used to treat eye diseases, bewitchment and to make childbirth easier.

I showed a biology teacher my cuddly toy belemnite and she said “Do you know its Latin name?”

Then my own biology teacher (who is very nice and knows me well) said, “Oh I bet she does!!!”, then I (thinking she meant the species-genus name) said, “No, actually, I don’t; I think it’s just a nonspecific belemnite. That’s the thing with toys of lesser known things like jellyfish or octopus, they’re rarely a specific species.”

And then the less-familiar biology teacher said, “It looks like a cnidarian, is it a cnidarian?” and grabbed her and examined her!!!

I said no because she is a squidlike creature so she is a cephalopod, a mollusc, which is actually miles away from jellyfish on the tree of life, and as she lacks nematocysts she can’t be a mollusc and jellyfish are NOT like octopus and squid anyway.

I had to kind of grab her back.

Truly offensive; heinously misidentifying Belemnite and grabbing her by the shell without asking me!
