It all seemed improbable, more like fiction than life. The Sophie he knew had gasped with pleasure at the sight of a hawk in a gyre above their heads and had melted at an encounter with a tiny fallow fawn. But that was a different Sophie, a different story.

Kate Atkinson, from Death at the Sign of the Rook

Talking is good when it is based on happiness, when it flows easily and is lively, but how can words – always changeable, always liable to be misunderstood – help when they just have unhappiness at their root?

Specifically, the capacity for behavioral plasticity – including homosexuality – may strengthen the ability of a species to respond "creatively" to a highly changeable and "unpredictable" world.

Опасный и невероятно красочный Немрота кубараяна.

Голожаберный моллюск Немрота кубараяна (Изменчивый неоновый слизень) может достигать общей длины более 120 мм. Это большой голожаберник с тёмным телом, который может иметь зелёные полосы, проходящие по всей длине тела, или зелёные выступающие пятна. Края стопы и головы ярко-красно-оранжевые.

Эти слизняки не могут наслаждаться красивыми цветами и узорами, которые у них есть, потому что их глаза используются очень просто — чтобы обнаруживать тёмное и светлое. Питается асцидиями и сохраняет токсины асцидий в своих тканях, а затем, во время угрозы, выпускает их в виде оборонного слизи. Ареал распространения Изменчивого неонового слизеня в Индо-Тихоокеанской области - Восточная Африка (Кения, Маврикий, Танзания), Филиппины, Индонезия, Малайзия. Немрота кубараяна был впервые описан датским ученым Рудольфом Бергом в 1877 году.

The dangerous and incredibly colorful Nemrota cubarayana.

The nudibranch Nemrota cubarayana (Variable Neon Slug) can reach a total length of over 120 mm. It is a large nudibranch with a dark body that may have green stripes running along the entire length of the body, or green raised spots. The edges of the foot and head are bright red-orange. These slugs cannot enjoy the beautiful colors and patterns that they have because their eyes are used very simply - to detect dark and light. It feeds on ascidians and stores ascidian toxins in its tissues, and then, when threatened, releases them in the form of defensive mucus.

The distribution area of ​​the Variable Neon Slug in the Indo-Pacific region is East Africa (Kenya, Mauritius, Tanzania), the Philippines, Indonesia, Malaysia. Nemrota cubarayana was first described by Danish scientist Rudolf Berg in 1877.

it’s understandable to see folks saying pre-amnesia harry is a fixed character and your choices in the game can’t change who he was. but it’s also fascinatingly incorrect

when you talk to idiot doom spiral about your tequila sunset escapade, idiot doom spiral tells the story of that night slightly differently depending on what political leanings you’ve chosen, and what “copotype” you’ve adopted

I know it’s a small thing but I noticed it in game and immediately thought “oh it’s cool that the game changes who harry used to be based on how you play him now”

but other people seem really confident that there is only one pre-amnesia harry du bois so 🤔 idk what to make of that. it seems like there is a case for disagreement here

Algy could see that the weather in the wild west Highlands of Scotland was feeling nervous and agitated. It could not make up its mind to any particular pattern or state, and an apparently never-ending succession of clouds sweeping in from the Atlantic brought rapidly changing conditions. Algy wondered whether its unstable mood was owing to apprehension arising from the forecast of a massive storm which was predicted to hit the area at the end of the week…

At times the skies did clear to a beautiful blue and the world was rendered in colour… but not for long. More often, soft greys swept all the colours away and frequent showers rained down on Algy's head as the hooded crows called peevishly from the tall spruces nearby.

However, determined to take advantage of even the briefest moments of sunshine after the long, dreary months of darkness, Algy remained undaunted. Hopping up into a convenient tree in one of the drier interludes, he waited patiently… and sure enough, before too long, he was rewarded with a touch of almost-warm, glowing light… for just a few short moments, for unfortunately the sun had not "come to dwell":

The Sun—just touched the Morning— The Morning—Happy thing— Supposed that He had come to dwell— And Life would all be Spring! She felt herself supremer— A Raised—Ethereal Thing! Henceforth—for Her—What Holiday! Meanwhile—Her wheeling King— Trailed—slow—along the Orchards— His haughty—spangled Hems— Leaving a new necessity! The want of Diadems! The Morning—fluttered—staggered— Felt feebly—for Her Crown— Her unanointed forehead— Henceforth—Her only One!

[Algy is quoting the poem The Sun – just touched the Morning by the 19th century American poet Emily Dickinson.]
