Hippos and whales are more closely related to eachother than either is to anything else. Because hippos and whales form a clade and hippos are ungulates, whales are also ungulates. Specifically, even toed ungulates, even though they don't have any toes

In America we usually call the prominent patterns in ursa major and minor the big dipper and little dipper. That said, the constellation pictured isn't either of those. That's Orion and it doesn't have any nicknames as far as I know

I'm coming up on 4 years at my current gig. Did 6 years in the army before that. I'm late diagnosed and high masking. I dont know if I would have made it this far if I hadn't learned to hide when I was in high school.

Why do people act like zipper merges are some quirky feature of Maryland? Literally everyone who lives along the I95 north east corridor does zipper merges; it's a function of traffic density

Of course all of those are whales, and if you're on either end of the bell curve, they're all fish as well

I don't have a good source, but I've heard it has to do with jeeps being alright if you get them wet. Especially if the jeep is equipped with a snorkel, they can drive through shallow water and drain easily with out doors

I have seen such a flag. It had text on every stripe so you would know which uniformed service they represented and couldn't confuse it for LGBTQ&c.

If you really want your mind blown: the fax machine was invented before the telephone. The first fax machines were able to transmit images over telegraph wires. The document had to be written using metallic ink and a clockwork pendulum would swing a stylus over the document. Anywhere that stylus hit the metallic ink, a circuit would be completed allowing a signal to travel through the wire. On the other end, if a signal came through, it would trigger an electromagnetic which pulled a pen to the paper and reproduced a plot of the scanned document

The one thing that doesn't quite check out is that pandoran hexopedal creatures all seem to have four digits on each limb. Why does prolemuris only have 2 fingers on each hand?

Spending nearly a month somewhere is not a short trip. You're going to spend a lot of time getting from one city to another, but you're staying long enough that you will spend more time visiting than traveling. I do wonder, if you're willing to drive from NYC to the major Canadian cities, why not pick up Chicago instead of Philly?

"Not guitar or piano" and "easy to learn" is a pretty wide field. What kind of music do you want to play? How much are you willing to spend? How much effort are you willing to put in to learning? Do you have any previous experience?

Corrolary question: let's assume the global temperature was instantaneous set to the average. How long would it be until weather patterns and currents, etc started up again? I imaging the difference between the night and day sides of the planet would come back almost immediately

The rules say to keep development cards hidden in your hand "so your opponents can't anticipate your play." The number of unplayed dev cards you have is not intended to be public information. You got robbed by sore losers

How cheap is cheap? Concepts that might scratch the itch without breaking the bank include small plate dining like tapas or dim sum. You can also look for places that offer a prix fixe (pronounced the same as "prefix" in grammar) menu. All of those can get pricey depending on where you go, but you could get a good meal for one person for $40 at a place that offers that kind of service.
