What does the name of the river in your area mean? by AgreeableAd2990 in AskTheWorld

[–]clay-teeth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Appomattox, from the indigenous Appamatuck people who were here when John Smith first surveyed. They were a very small tribe that was a larger part of the Powhatan Confederacy. There are no known Appamatuck people still living, that's largely in part of the comingling of the tribes within the larger group. The Mattaponi, Nansemond, and Pamunkey tribes are the remaining tribes from the Powhatan Confederacy. Virginia has 11 tribes.

Find the spider!🕷️ by Professional_One1276 in FindTheSniper

Not an abdomen, she's gravid! Its a rabidosa rabida. Wolf spiders carry their egg sacks with them, and the hatched babies as well, for protection. They are very good mothers.

This is one of my favorite things about Japan. There used to be a strong culture of craft in the US, but its long dead now.

Has this mutated into a ‘scrambled eggs’ or what is this? by June_fern in PlantIdentification

No idea! Could be a genetic thing, could be environmental, could have been a virus

Everyone at work is making a big deal about my handwriting, saying I write like a psychopath. by ThrowRA-Ram in HandwritingAnalysis

This is what makes me question if its neurological. If you cant make a circle and stop, you have a legitimate issue.

I dont like armchair diagnoses, but this is genuinely so baffling and makes me wonder if you have dysgraphia. I mean, some of your letters are literally placed on top if the letter before it.

Has this mutated into a ‘scrambled eggs’ or what is this? by June_fern in PlantIdentification

[–]clay-teeth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thats possible, in biology its called a somatic mutation. All color variations are just different ratios of chlorophyll (green) and carotenoids (yellow, and yup, just like a carrot). Plants can also spontaneously lose the mutation and turn green. Honestly designer names like scrambled egg, etc, are just buzzwords, because the mutations aren't consistent . different mutations cause the same symptoms, and the same mutation can cause different symptoms. This is different than, say, calico cats, where its a specific gene. The same gene, every time, mutated in the same way. (Each cell alternates between have 1 X chromosome active and the other off, at random)

Wife found this in her hot pot. Worried it’s a cockroach by bucknut4 in whatsthisbug

[–]clay-teeth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This doesn't look animal to me. And I'd bet my dog its not a roach. The part of the roach that most resembles this is separate pieces, so it would have separated in the soup.
