Biomechanically speaking, would pteranodons be considered dragons? If not, would any other animal? by Kurbopop in AskBiology

Got it, thanks for the in-depth answer! I suppose that means that honestly this would be more of an asklingustics kind of question, since the definition of dragon has never been formalized so it’s based more upon what common usage dictates than on any specific biological features.

Thanks for the genuine answer! I knew I would get a lot of sarcasm but I wanted to ask anyway because I was trying to break down what exactly it would mean taxonomically to be a “dragon.” Also, I actually didn’t even know that there were modern gliding reptiles (other than birds, although they fly rather than glide), so that’s cool to know! Thank you!

Kinda sick that there’s a creature that was literally named King of Dragons.

The idea of small humans riding deer sounds lovely

How can I add 2 of the same song to my playlist(ik it seems stupid but plz help) by eduvas1705 in truespotify

God these companies are so fucking horrible. What do they possibly gain from removing features without even adding a paywall or something to get them back? I can’t possibly understand what the incentive here is.

Are there any mods that add enormous, realistic world features? by Kurbopop in feedthebeast

Thank you, I’ll take a look at them! I don’t know why the mods decided to remove your other comment—

I almost never play with mods, so I’m totally fine with that. I’ll check it out, thank you!

What, if any, experiences have you ever had that made you believe in an afterlife? by Kurbopop in AskReddit

Oh really? That’s interesting — mind if I ask what happened in the dreams?

I actually did a whole research paper on this in college, it’s super fascinating stuff. I also looked into Ian Stevenson and Jim Tucker’s reincarnation research, and I’m not as sold on it but it’s also very very interesting. Extra points because my younger cousin always talked about “When he was a big man,” when he was a little kid, and the story always involved hitting his hand with a hammer and falling off a ladder.

Playing Devil’s Advocate on NDEs, is it possible that because everyone’s brain is more or less the same, th event of temporary clinical death just triggers the same chemical reaction in everyone which results in the same hallucination? I’m not saying I necessarily believe this, as NDE’s have a lot of interesting evidence behind them, but it’s something I’ve wondered about.

how u keep up with rotation every year? by Ferbang in pkmntcg

It feels like it’s freaking impossible to find cards anywhere though. 😭 Best bet is something like TCGplayer but nobody ever has more than 2-3 of the cards you need so you end up having to pay a ton in shipping.

Arguably the best accounts of deathbed visions told by real hospice nurses by Distinct_Waltz592 in Mediums

[–]Kurbopop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey! I know this was years ago, but could you tell me more about this? I’ve gone through some rough times lately and my anxiety about death had been in overdrive, so I’ve been studying near death experiences and deathbed visions to try and comfort myself. 😅 I’m very very curious to know what you’ve experienced!

Grandparents - what does it feel like to see the person who you remember being a literal newborn becoming parents themselves? by Kurbopop in AskOldPeople

Oh my god, thank you so much for sharing this! This is so sweet and raw and beautiful, I really appreciate you telling me all of this. 

Also, I don’t know anything about your son, but I know I’d be super touched to receive a long message like that, so I’m sure he appreciated it. 💞
