Somewhere in Time - Iron Maiden
  • Ah I see, I'm not familiar with rocksmith. It can be interesting to learn to play music when it intrudces new ideas amd challenges you! IM are definitely no 4 chord pop rock band, some excellent guitar work behind the catchy lyrical melodies!

  • Somewhere in Time - Iron Maiden
  • Your first Iron Maiden listen? Some great songs here, I may have to have a Maiden session tonight now, it's been some time since I've listened to this one! Alexander the Great is more in line with some of their other historically inspired songs, but does feel a little out of place here unless you include it as part of being 'lost somewhere in time'.

  • Carnivory in Plants
  • There's tonnes of blackthorn and a lot of sheep in the UK and I've never heard it to be problematic. Sheep ate pretty dim, but bramble is definitely not thorny/spiney enough to get caught bar the odd occasion. I'm sure I heard about a shrub (African maybe) that sheep can get completely ensnared in and die, but can't find it!

  • Check yourself
  • Many species of butterlies and moths eat honeydew, aka aphid poop, so no nectar needed. Also the larvae do the bulk of the eating. Imagos of lepidoptera only need to survive not grow so food requirements are fairly low.

  • Carnivory in Plants
  • Because they live in environments lacking in the nutrients that can be gained from invertebrates (e.g. in highly acidic soil). This allows them to compete better against other plants. I guess non-flowering plants don't need the same nutrients so can go without. Only a beginnner+ at ecological botany so someone here can surely explain better knowing lemmy!

  • Thoughts?
  • Directly below in my feed is a meme saying "I'll do it when I get home...me when I get home..." with a cat flopped out on a shelf. A small but gloriously serendipitous moment!

  • Why is there such a negative connotation with the poos of horses, bulls, and bats?
  • Iirc, the phrase "bat shit crazy" comes from the harvesting of tropical bat guano (poop) for use as a fertliser. The poop is highly toxic, or contains toxic bacteria, which makes the harvesters go a little crazy! Not all bat species have this toxic poop.

  • PAGEOS Satellite (1966)
  • If my understanding of physics is correct, they'd have to be slap bang in the centre of the reflected image (assuming a perfect sphere), so somewhere on the framework of the corner of the building.

  • Should i do something?
  • Yes that's a youngster that's probably fallen out of the roost. I doubt it'll survive without getting back, which it probably won't be able to do itself. You say you're in Italy yes? Where abouts? I can see if any of my contacts here in the UK know who could help.

    P.s. some species of bats carry rabies so at the very least where gloves if you do need to handle ir move it. A youngster is less likely to bite if handled and you could only catch it if they bite.

    Also so thus link for advise on how to handle and safely contain the bat https://www.bats.org.uk/advice/help-ive-found-a-bat/bats-in-need-of-rescue/contain-the-bat

  • /r/conservative huffing copium
  • Well said! Once people understand this they can start to understand the decisions of the governments. Being elected is all about funnelling money into the corporate sector/stock market and in turn to themselves and their multimillionaire chums.

  • What gives you sensory overload?
  • Yeah I get this one too. I can't focus on any particular person, struggle to make out what someone sat next to me is saying, even if talking to me, and makes me very tired after a while.

  • Patrick Watson - Close to Paradise

    NIN and PW, two of my favourite artists. So very different and yet, with these two songs, suddenly...closer....than I could have imagined. Connection: Close (closer also in the lyrics).
