Wow
Stygiomedusa gigantea, commonly known as the giant phantom jelly is a part of the monotypic genus of deep sea jellyfish, Stygiomedusa. This is in the Ulmaridae family. It can't actually sting you as its—30-foot-long—”mouth arms” are just there to trap prey rather than sting them.
This ghostly giant is a rare sight.
MBARI's ROVs have logged thousands of dives, yet we have only seen this spectacular species nine times. The first specimen of the giant phantom jelly was collected in 1899, but it was not until 60 years later that scientists recognized this as a new species.
Had to add this on for perspective.
Oh wow, do you have a recipe you could share for that apple marzipan cake? It looks perfect for my dad but I haven't been able to find a good recipe!
Sure! This is the recipe I use:
Ingredients:
250 g (all purpose) wheat flour 1 teaspoon baking powder 75 g sugar 3 eggs 225 g butter 75 g ground almonds ½ tsp. cinnamon 1 tsp. vanilla ½ kg apples (4 apples) 200 g marzipan 75 g powdered sugar
Preparation: Mix 150 g wheat flour, 1/2 tsp. baking powder, 75 g sugar, 1 egg yolk, 75 g ground almonds and 100 g cold butter cut into small cubes into a dough. Roll out 3/5 of the dough to cover the bottom of a greased 26 cm springform pan, form a 2 cm high rim with the remaining dough.
Mix the finely chopped marzipan with 125 g of softened butter. Stir in the vanilla, cinnamon, 75 g powdered sugar, 2 eggs and 1 egg white. Stir 100g flour mixed with 1 tsp baking powder into the mixture. Put in the peeled apples (cut into wedges) and fill the mixture into the springform pan, smooth it out and bake on the middle shelf at 160°C (320°F) convection oven for approx. 45-55 min.

The worst thing in the entire world is when you’re sweeping a big pile of dirt into a dustpan and it leaves that little coke line of grit behind. No matter how you position your pan or your broom and no matter how many times you sweep over it your outcome cannot change. As immovable as fate. I hate it so
You are not superior to the person who is nonverbal. You are not superior to the person who needs a carer. You are not superior to the person who wears diapers. You are not superior to the person who can't manage a job or an education. You are not superior to the person who is intellectually and/or cognitively disabled. You are not superior to the people in psych wards and group homes. You are not superior to the person in the wheelchair. You are not superior to the person on disability benefits. You are not inherently superior to any of these people just by virtue of being more capable in comparison. Leave your ableism at the door or don't enter

Shocking how many people don’t know that hens lay non-fertilized eggs and think the yolk they’re eating is a baby chicken
