Just use its Latin name, Solidago. How am I supposed to know what it is called in English when each other language also has its own name.
And yes, in Germany I do see it as an invasive pest. But at least it attracts a lot of pollinators. The invasive species of Erigeron are worse.
What's genetic monoculture then? Wouldn't that be identical to just monoculture? Or is it having the same crop, but different genetic variants on the same field for multiple years?
I've taken many pictures of copulating insects and I always feel weird doing that. But for identification purposes it's great...
Interestingly, it is still very different. Men fantasizing about sex bots is objectifying female bodies and taking control over them. That's why it is so creepy. Women searching for a romantic partner in chat bots is actually subjectifying an inanimate thing.
I've never understood why people buy clothing from expensive brands (except for when there is a real expectation of quality/durability)
Like, I understand it if the choice were only between original and poor-quality rip-off. But usually you can just go with something else that isn't by an expensive brand and isn't a rip-off...
True, I had to think of magic cards, too. I would definitely print my own cards if I'd play nowadays...
Nice article! As an outsider I still don't get why people wouldn't sell/buy unpainted minis for cheap (e.g. on etsy)
On my phone I watch via the Grayjay app (I used newpipe before, but it wasn't as reliable). If it asks me to login, I either use a VPN or watch YouTube in a Firefox-based browser with ublock. I haven't seen ads since years...
On my PC I also just use Firefox and ublock to watch without ads.
At least it follows the normal text flow and you can read from top to bottom (if you ignore the user names). Not like on xitter, where you have to jump from the middle to top to bottom...
I agree with the second part of that sentence, but who would think that they discover universal truths or any truths at all? The whole premise of science is that we cannot verify anything or find any real truth. We can just show that anything else is much more unlikely to be true.
Lol, have you not seen the OP or have ever looked at plant taxonomy before? There are many different groups where it is dubious if we can apply some sort of species concept.
And you talk about the species concept as if there was only just one?

Wow, I loved this! Thanks for sharing <3
