I See A Lot About How Peppers Are Upset Because Humans Eat Them For The Thing That Was Supposed To Prevent

I see a lot about how peppers are upset because humans eat them for the thing that was supposed to prevent them from doing that, but capsaicin was supposed to help pepper seeds propagate since mammals couldn't propagate them, and we cultivate pepers on a massive scale because of the capsaicin. So I think that it was a net win for the pepper and the capsaicin did it's job, just in an unexpected way. Like, yeah, task failed in stopping mammals from eating you, but you did manage to become wildly successful because a particular group of mammals like the capsaicin.

Just discovered that I have to hunt vampires in Dwarf Fortress. He killed my axelord and I immediately go to the wiki because there is no way I can deal with a (literally) goddamned vampire. After the mandatory rabbit hole, I did manage to find out that this is a very common issue that I've somehow never experienced.

Anyway, I found the vampire (unfortunately they killed another dwarf and somehow no one saw despite being in a 5x10 burrow with the victim and murderer, and for whatever reason the vampire traumatized themselves) but I am keeping the rest of the suspects detained for investigation because now I'm paranoid.

I can never get good photos of the moon, it makes me sad. But then there are plenty of other people who can take photos of the moon so that's good.

Are there any trilobites on Tumblr or did they all die in the second Cambrian extinction of 2012?

[Cueball is holding two pieces of rock in a paleontological site.]
Cueball: It's weird to pry open a rock and see an animal that no one has laid eyes on for 400 million years. 

Cueball pokes the fossil.
Cueball: Boop! 
Off-panel voice: Hey! Don't boop the trilobites!

The two best reasons to get into fossils are booping trilobites and getting to say the word "fossiliferous" a lot.
