“Science isn't about WHY. It's about WHY NOT. Why is so much of our science dangerous? Why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you on the butt on the way out, because you are fired.”

I may or may not have a soundboard prepped for zoom talks with this. I just set it up, the question is when, WHEN DOES IT DROP?

Remember: never confuse the Olframory regrion with the Orfancfary regain.

Hey, I’ll Oframory the hell out of my regrion if I want to! You’re not the bnss of me!

Many a student has had to drop out because of this classic blunder.

Brain half the size of its body AND three legs?!

It's the ubermouse!

[–] SwampYankee@mander.xyz 4 points 7 months ago

Well, two legs, and attached to the left leg is part of its tail hoop, which it uses to strangle its prey. What looks like a foot is actually used to gather the excess length of tail and tighten the hoop, and also assists in gripping the prey.

Is that... a can opener? Below the violet "Temrousy" area?

That is just a slightly different projection of the hyper intelligent pandimensional beings which we call rats.

Finger hands! Finger hands! Holy shit look at those finger hands!
Is it accurate? No it's not! Just look at those creepy finger hands.
AI.. loves to make crappy hands.

It’s easy to forget the cochlear implant, terminal cap, and spring loaded angry bird region of the brain. Good on that AI for remembering.

[–] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 2 points 7 months ago

Terminal cap! That’s what my mouse was missing!

But I like procrastinating by spending too much time on the graphics

The feet look extremely creepy.

[–] lens17@feddit.de 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Maybe because it has three on its left side and only one on its right?

[–] cron@feddit.de 3 points 7 months ago

Yes, and additionally they look like human fingers
