Spoiler: Dissertation

Main problem with taxonomy is that it's generally a thankless job done by very overworked people and a lot of its foundations were created when the people making the charts were basically a bunch of old english and french assholes going to papua new guinea or the amazon basin and pickling random bugs in jars of formaldehyde and naming them after the duke of york or whatever.

Taxonomy was done purely VISUALLY for a good 200 years before we began analyzing genes and it is still done visually for a lot of field work, specially with rarer species that don't even have a holotype or any pictures. The framework of the whole thing is arbitrary and the system was made by some botanist Christian in the 1700's who thought whales were fish and rocks were alive.

The bigger issue is that taxonomy does not describe absolute reality, like all science except pure logic it simply describes how us humans perceive reality. Nature cannot be beholden to 8 ranks in some arbitrary system, you cannot decide what is what with absolutely certainty. So we are in an eternal quest to get as close to describing reality as possible but since evolution is a constant for living beings it will NEVER be over. Livings beings do not go from one state to another, they gradually change like frames of a video, so any description is only describing a snapshot in a process, if you travelled a million years in the future the whole system would be flawed.

Let's stop this chat before somebody begins arguing about birds or protists or hyenas, I had a 4 hour debate with someone about that once I do not wish to relive.

Im glad that this site is still autistic and oldfag enough that people have an almost two hour long discussion about seaweed over a random post vaugely referencing mold
Better than other places' "this week's trendy struggle session" posting

Re:AcT's Anya Kumori will premiere her first original song at 9PM JST.

And will talk about it later at 10PM JST.


As expected, Kohaku Yuri's new mama is Rityulate like other 774inc remodels.

Vshojo is teasing... something for April 1st.



@VSoyBoy as the resident VShojo expert (no-one else watches them), do you have any context or information that could explain this for us?

Could be several things, new members being the most obvious "thing to come".
The picture is of all the current members, all using the default outfits so it's not announcing matching new looks or anything like that.
Also, most likely not a concert because I don't think everyone would be taking part and they wouldn't be using their default looks. Same with one of their group covers.
Then again, the date being April fools, I could imagine the shadows obscuring some stupid face or other quirk on their models they'll all have for the day, a likely option but a boring one.

My default reaction to anyone teasing anything on April 1st is to think it's a prank so it would be the perfect time to actually drop something important but it's Vshojo so it's probably something stupid

Edible Algae - American Chemical Society

American Chemical Society: Chemistry for Life.

Turns out, the roasted seaweed I like eating is considered algae too. Algae is all edible.

Yeah I put a scoop of kelp powder in my greens shake as it's a great source of iodide and helps boost my energy level. It's a very cheap supplement.

That's gone from severe dust collection to possibly being on the verge of sentience.

Reminds me of a fan stopping in one case, turned out I didn't see that the hole in the metal behind the fan was just small enough that dust was collecting there until a dustbunny grew large enough to jam the fan blade from even starting up.

Vshojo is teasing... something for April 1st.

The day that I essentially just avoid the Internet as much as possible as everyone becomes a try-hard comedian that day. I mean one or two jokes like a fake product or news story is amusing but some years like the entire front pages of websites just became utter nonsense.

Brother this planet was ruled by Fungi before anything else we are breathing the mold as we live and go about our days. The mold just hasn't taken us over (yet) because we're too warm (for now).

Our immune systems are constantly fighting the mold that we're not too warm for as well, which is why AIDS patients also get the horror of being eaten alive by fungus as their immune systems fail.

Ah that was the other example I was trying to remember when someone asked if we knew of any VTubers who were open about already being taken, other than Rev/Straub and Nyanner/Athel I was drawing a blank on the other example I know of.

That was a year ago but if she's still got a man then yeah she's more likely to at least be stable if not based.

Didn't Vhoeshow do a fake corpo last year where the members had really retarded names like (Piss fetish reference), (Peepee Poopoo) and (Sex joke LMAO)?

Here's all I could find from a quick search for what they did on april fools in the past. Last year apparently their big prank was that Zentreya became a toaster which was a vast improvement as he now had a purpose, two years ago they became "gremlins" which from what I could tell was just their version of smol and Kson became k"son" and created Vshobro or something and three years ago they all become geckos and changed their name to GShojo so I cant find anything your mentioning and they didn't seem to do anything for 2021 and 2022

The lack of Archaea in your graphic triggers me a little bit, but yeah we are "closer" to Fungi.

As a microbiologist, these vtubers have convinced me that I could find a some new species in their houses.

Myxogastria pippa, a slime mold found in the damp and moist, suburban environments of North America and frequently in association with pink lagomorphs.

Victims of Pipkin (a mental illness also associated with pink lagomorphs) were disappointed to learn that slime molds aren't actually meaningfully related to true molds.

So that's where I heard that voice before. I sensed something familiar about her, however haven't been able to keep up since her debut as she's been streaming like all damn day long during the week.

Man I wish Yuno reached out more or more people reached out to her. She got great supporting actor energy that I can see her collabs with Ami or Joru being pure cinema with the contrast of energetic shy dorks and the soft-spoken social menace.
