Horseshoe crabs are vexing. We capture millions for their blood (useful for testing the purity of phama). There are alternatives, but biologist worry that the animals will suffer more if they become useless to humans.

Adapted? How? Crabs really are the pinnacle of evolution

MurrayL , to games in Do you prefer RTS or Turn based tactics

Turn-based all the way for me. I need time to think about my moves!

I want to love RTS games, but I just don’t have the executive function skills needed to prioritise tasks and make decisions fast enough to do well. Single player against CPU is sometimes doable if there’s an easy mode or cheats, but online multiplayer is just impossible.

frightful_hobgoblin , to asklemmy in Sorry for the potentially controversial question: is it normal for less attractive people to settle down with partners they don't find physically attractive?

“Settle down” is based in different criteria to “want to fuck”

sunzu ,

Hearing avg looking person use the term settle down...

🤡🤡🤡

What is the mental condition for this? Main character syndrome?

frightful_hobgoblin , (edited )

what are you trying to say?

sunzu ,

That people who think of themselves as settling down lack maturity to be in a relationship.

They are still in stage of their lives where they don't understand that other people have their own lives and priorities

frightful_hobgoblin ,

Do you mean settling or settling down?

sunzu ,

Fucking great catch!!!

"Settling"

Apologies haha

ChicoSuave , to asklemmy in Sorry for the potentially controversial question: is it normal for less attractive people to settle down with partners they don't find physically attractive?

Why are you with someone you don’t find attractive? Are you obligated to be in the relationship? Are you afraid of what happens without your partner?

A partner is someone you are happy to be with and if attractiveness is the sole determining factor, ask yourself what is unattractive about yourself. Why are they with you? Why don’t they leave to find someone else?

In truth, attractiveness is great for starting a relationship but the relationship will evolve to become more about the connection you both share. In-jokes are the best part, old arguments are the worst. But it’s something no one else would understand because it’s between you two.

Wake up with your partner, see them after a night of restless sleep or being sick for a few days. No one is attractive then and hopefully this shows that attractiveness is not the only requirement for loving someone. The only requirement is that you love them, whole and true, for as long as you can.

If you don’t love your partner, or find yourself doubting, have the courage to solve that difficulty. Be honest with yourself AND your partner. They are living with the hope that each day will be another in the story of your lives. Lying to them by hiding how you feel is building interest on a pain that could have been avoided.

If you take care of the you should be good for at least 5 years

xmunk , to asklemmy in Sorry for the potentially controversial question: is it normal for less attractive people to settle down with partners they don't find physically attractive?

It happens pretty often because physical attraction is just one facet of attraction - you can find someone extremely attractive but not for physical reasons… some people even have trouble processing physical attraction and identify as sapiosexual.

Roly polies are awesome.

As a side note - bugs are weird man. Some (like roly polies) I am completely fine with and others just skeeve me right out.

Even ants can send a shiver down my spine at times depending.

I’m pretty sure there are plenty of young conservatives

mercano , to asklemmy in Would you wear a body cam at work?
@mercano@lemmy.world avatar

I don’t think it’s going to happen that way. Body cams are needed if you want to record people working in the field, such as police officers, but for people working at a fixed location, an office or factory or what have you, CCTV cameras are cheaper, less intrusive, and harder for a bad actor to screw with by “accidentally” covering their lens or forgetting to turn their unit on.
