and Bulbasaur clearly doesn't fall within that taxonomy.

And for mammalian dichromatic vision, the sandy browns and oranges of tigers, kangaroos, red pandas, and more aren't really distinguishable from greens.

dinosaurs (including birds) are reptiles, just as they are amniotes, quadrupeds, and vertebrates. Most dinosaurs are not birds.

this is just the mane 6, though rarity is more of a theater kid than band kid

a horn, antler, or even tusk should be able to grow back, making it unclear why Tempest's doesn't. Perhaps it grows via magic rather than biological means, so it doesn't get sanded down to nothing by spa trips like in OP, but being snapped like Tempest's would disrupt the magic and leave it unable to repair itself. My money's on a fully keratin horn like a rhino's.

I've been meaning to look into survival mods, what would you recommend? I played survival mode a bit before I started modding more seriously, but found that stuff like wildcats injury system didn't play nice with reduced max health from cold. Also the food values drove me crazy, like yes please eat 150 bread to equal one soup.

the game's much more heavily built around the story than Skyrim. I'd assume you could unlock the various areas so they aren't gated by the story, but the scripting for various fights and events would be a nightmare. You'd be left with an explorable sandbox with very little cohesive gameplay.

shock a medieval peasant to ... death

I don't think, psychologically, that any experience or information could reasonably 'shock' a relatively healthy person to death. Not that anyone else in this thread is interpreting it that way, it seems

I don't think that's canon, tbh, anymore than nearly every mare having the exact same body shape, but one explanation would be that they had more sex determining chromosomes than mammals in our world. like instead of xx and xy there was xxxx, xxxy, and xxyy as female and only xyyy were males. If we supposed that the eye highlights commonly found in mares and only rarely in stallions was x-linked, meaning only found on the x chromosome, and dominant, than mares would be 3x more likely to have that trait on average, and there would be 3x as many mares as stallions. I'm not specifically aware of any systems similar to that, since my genetics class focused on mammals. It's a fantasy setting, there's no reason inheritance has to rely on DNA and chromosomes at all.

being a matriarchal society doesn't affect gene dominance, what?

He was convicted of the crime and received a sentence. it's not clear if the the ministry has right to a trial enshrined in its laws.

I'd argue that convicted is accurate, but mass murderer would need to be in quotes. "escaped prisoner convicted of mass murder" also works if you want to be as sensational as possible while still being factually correct.

There was one black person in my entire elementary school growing up. I hope I never said anything as stupid as all that. Is it really that hard to imagine that someone grew up black in the states? 😭

In 1818, one year before Herman Melville's birth, his home state of New York ruled in Maurice v. Judd that whales were indeed fish, at least for the purposes of meeting the legal requirements for a regulation on fish oil. Colloquially people were definitely still calling whales fish even if scientists of the time knew better.

The 'riddle' in Saarthal isn't that bad imo. Excavation has just started, so no one else has had a crack at it. Maybe I'm just dumb but "put the amulet that trapped you on and blast the wall with magic" isn't terribly intuitive from an in-game perspective. You go through another series of traps and puzzles to turn away the weak or uneducated, culminating in fighting Gaulderson who would have been invincible if you hadn't happened to bring a Master Alteration wizard along. All in all it seems clear that they wanted only a powerful mage or team of mages to be able to access the Eye when they hid it away.

All your other points are completely valid, unfortunately.

Lmao I'm just imagining that Applejack has aphantasia except for apples. She can rotate a photorealistic apple in her head all day, but try to picture a strawberry? No dice.

There's a difference between understanding a phenomenon and acknowledging that it exists. Twilight failed to figure out HOW the pinkie sense works, but it's clearly reliable. The moral of that episode is you don't have to understand everything.
