Ribose molecules came to Earth in meteorites and eventually became key parts of RNA. But how they survived in between has been a mystery.

cut to me fuming at the post office when I tried to send an international parcel and it had been a while, and they were like "where's your online form" and I was all "you used to just hand me a paper form, what's this online form" and then they were "do you have the app" and I was "😭"

He's back in the ICU with "low blood pressure" now, and frankly, this is looking like it might be it. Please, friends, if you or someone you know has a safe, comfortable, loving landing zone for his two cats, please please *please* speak up ASAP.

Ahhh whereas I really didn't like Tenet 🙃 Oppenheimer I found okayish but too long and pompous at times. Plus badly written female characters, every time. I probably could have been persuaded if it wasn't three hours long! And I say that as a Bollywood fan. Glad it's resonating with people though.

It's okay to skip it even though it will feel like the entire world is shoving that movie down your throat. I loved Nolan circa Prestige and Inception but I'm severely bored by his work now. Some friends+spouse went to see Odyssey yesterday and I stayed home and did a craft! Very satisfying.

lol just googled that and it already exists and is called a Verdant Lady (minus the flaky paint garnish)

Fair enough! I wonder if it could be developed further with less "on brand" ingredients, maybe as a twist on a Southside... gin lime juice sugar syrup chartreuse for green colour blended mint for algae raspberry fruit rollup garnish

To the people saying it's AI, it's not. On face value it's hilarious but the video shows he did hold the nail and then moved his fingers but retained the pinching motion. It's actually not that weird although his hammer technique is still not great overall... but he didn't ask to do this 😂

A different angle screenshot from the video showing Prince William's fingers are not next to the nail.

Yesterday, kids in Latvia were supposed to sit the annual state exams. Instead, many sheltered in corridors and basements due to a drone alert. In a NATO country. That's not at war with anyone. I'm unreasonably upset about this. www.theguardian.com/world/live/2...
