This is correct. I was just trying to be ironic. Sorry if I baited anyone.

Thanks for being kind to me and assuming the best. As it is, I was doing an ironic shtick in the same vein.

Hmm? I’m not familiar with that term. He just left me this bat with his friends’ signatures on it, and a few religious symbols. It’s pretty stained, but it’s got a lot of sentimental value. He didn’t say much except that he used it to teach Nazis a lesson by beating them…at the game of baseball. Always that pause near the end as grandma gave him a sharp look. She must have not wanted me to hear about his baseball stories.

30%: underpaid

40%: immorally underpaid

50%; criminally underpaid

100%: Les Miserables

“Hey, babe! New Hitler Youth merch just dropped!”

“They’re labeling themselves?”

“Yeah! They got race-supremecy friends and everything!”

“Let me grab my grampa’s bat. He beat so many Nazis with this…at the game of baseball of course.”

“Of course.”

Thanks for adding perspective on this. I agree that it’s a much more diverse situation than just giant lizards running around. To add to this, I think it’s also likely that other theroppds were also warm-blooded in addition to T. Rex.

Oh, you’re no fun anymore.

In all seriousness, thanks for bringing up that concept. On the surface, we generally group animals into endotherms and exotherms, but the reality is much more diverse, as you pointed out. Certain species of Tuna do make it into the category of endotherm because they generate enough heat internally to make a significant difference, however their body temperature is still largely variable depending on the surrounding environment making them also poikilotherms. Whereas mammals and birds are generally endotherms and homeotherms. I’m skipping over the concepts of hibernation and torpor in our bear and hummingbird friends, respectively, because that’s a whole other can of worms. In conclusion, I believe T. Rex, and many other dinosaurs, were both endotherms and homeotherms.

You’re not spreading misinformation. You stated your thesis based on your assumptions. You tested it, and then shared your results. I really appreciate that.

Thank you for your service.

Woke up and chose violence this morning, so here goes:

Akshully, the Jurassic Park creatures are not reptiles for a number of reasons.

1. Reptile is paraphyletic and arbitrarily groups species regardless of their lineage.

2. T. Rex was likely warmblooded as its descendants are.

3. The creatures are not entirely dinosaurs. They’re hybrids of dinosaurs, and modern animals that the Jurassic Park scientists believed were most similar genetically.

Anyway, thanks for commenting, and I hope I’ve conveyed an appreciative and respectful tone. I sincerely just like sharing, learning, and discussing things.

Also, fight me.

Not changing anything. This is “Shitty Ask Lemmy” after all.

She knew the damage to her and her neighbors’ yards was due to the concentric focus of the boys’ activities. If milkshake production could be distributed across many yards, the boys would do less damage. She could teach others to make the milkshakes, but given the resources required, she would have to charge or else risk bankruptcy. She pondered her options regarding the future while sipping her lavender matcha milkshake and watching the boys through her window as they ran rampant in her yard.

Awww. Cute little friend just needs some belly rubs.

Yes, most Koreans have bangs of some kind. Unhoused Koreans, as is the case in most countries, unfortunately, just have a different kind.

This does explain the rise of drag llamas.

“Do my job for me?”

“No.”

It’s important to have a scarier, if less dangerous, boogie man when one endeavors to do terrible things to otherwise rational people.
