Fever is a hilarious immune response. Our bodies tell the disease “hey, wanna see which one of us dies of overheating first? No? Too bad.” and honestly they’re not even the winners a decent chunk of the time but it works often enough that we never evolved it away or anything. Fantastic work.

The body shape of a fish can tell you a lot about it! It can tell you where they like to hang out, how they hunt, what they eat, and more!

Let's use the Asian Arowana (Scleropages formosus) as an example!

Based off the rounded caudal fin (the "tail"), this fish is not a very fast swimmer

Having the dorsal fin and anal fin right near the end of the fish's body suggests it is an ambush predator

The flat head suggests it hunts at the surface

The upturned, large mouth suggests it catches its prey from below

Arowana are ambush predators that hunt at the surface!

They don't need to go very far very fast, hence the rounded caudal fin (which is the slowest moving fin)

Having posterior dorsal and anal fins are a common trait amongst ambush predator

They primarily hunt at the surface! They will sit near the surface and grab small fish, bugs, crustaceans, and even occasionally a bird!

4. Fish that catch their prey from below sometimes do it via suction. They'll open their large mouth, and as the water gets sucked in, so does anything in the water. And the larger the mouth, more water will more quickly fill into the mouth, catching larger and faster prey

"would you fuck your clone" = boring, who cares, the answer says nothing about you other than whether or not you're your own type

"would you fuck MY clone" = unexpected, high potential to cause a lot of 'why would you fuck my clone and not me?' drama, reasonable question to ask if you're a mad scientist

It concerns me greatly that the definition of sex that seems to be operative here is about a resource that women dole out to men and never have appetites themselves. There's not really a call for lesbianism in this pseudo-lesbian separatism. The result is a rather whorephobic flavor. I think there is an evident moral denigration in this framework, given the lack of accounting for groups like sex workers—the women who continue to, you know, sleep with the enemy.

Meeting Isobel with Durge is always fun, both for the fact that Durge's first impulse is to declare their desire to vivisect and cannibalise her and for the fact that I just know this scenario is Ketheric's worst nightmare. Like if you asked him whether he'd rather have Isobel in a room alone with Aylin or Durge he'd have a hell of a time deciding which he hates more.
