Wood frogs can hold their pee for up to 8 months.

The elements that we are composed of were formed in the interiors of collapsing stars. We are all made of star dust.

The sex of a turtle is determined by temperature. If the egg is laid in a warm area it hatches female. If it is in a cooler area it hatches male. Hence why chicks are hot and dudes are cool :-

Alligator eggs are also influenced by temperature but are the complete reverse of the turtles.

The blue whale has the largest penis in the animal kingdom. 7 -10 feet on average!! I know this from nature documentaries NOT from personal experience!!

( Who the Hell ever got close enough to measure this during whale intercourse ?? )

You can't actually touch anything. This is because the electrons in the atoms that make up your finger and that of the object you're trying to touch repel each other (according to the basic law of electrostatics).

I’ve been lucky enough to go to Reykjavik. Everyone says, go to The Blue Lagoon, go see the geysers, the hot springs, the waterfalls, the mountains, the lunar landscape. As much as they are incredible to behold, the place you need to visit is the Penis Museum. Google it. Icelandic Phallelogical Museum. It has EVERY mammalian cock in there. And yes, a human one too.

I can testify to the Blue Whale one. I’m 6’2” and it, in its huge jar, towered over me.

I hear there is going to be a vagina museum in London. If they get a female blue whale’s in, I can’t wait to go pot holing in that cave...

All this blue whale talk actually got me interested in how they mate. Well I wasn’t expecting this...

“The male and female spend time rolling around each other, then they take a deep dive into the ocean abyss as they continue to communicate with each other. Suddenly, they fly upwards and cross the surface, and as the do the male thrusts the penis into the vulva and ejaculates.”

When you look up into the night sky you're looking back in time.

If you're looking at a star 1,000 light years away, you're seeing it as it was 1,000 years ago as it has taken light from that star 1,000 years to reach your eyes.

If said star exploded tomorrow, it would still appear as it is now in the night sky for another 1,000 years.

"When you look up into the night sky you're looking back in time.

If you're looking at a star 1,000 light years away, you're seeing it as it was 1,000 years ago as it has taken light from that star 1,000 years to reach your eyes.

If said star exploded tomorrow, it would still appear as it is now in the night sky for another 1,000 years.

I don’t know why but I love this

Its also sad in a way....

But 1,000 years after you die you’ll still be alive to somebody... even if it’s a different life form in a different place

And to keep on the theme of light speed;

At the speed of light time itself stops, so, those light particles that took 1,000 years to reach us have no concept of time, which means, from their perspective, they left that star and reached our eye at the same moment

On a similar note. If the sun were to instantly blip out of existence, we would continue orbiting around the blank void in space where it used to be for 8 minutes, untill the gravitational waves reach us. Only then would we fly off at a tangent"

But it’s all only theory and only refers to Newtonian mass, gravity, space, time and light and is not verifiable as we haven’t the technology to make light speed measurements or observations - nearly but not quite. And there are all the other dimensions we haven’t even discovered yet. And until somebody can define infinity (the current ultimate paradox) we haven’t even reached the surface, let alone scratched it. So “who knows”?

I'm pretty sure it has been verified recently. Astronomers look out for super nova explosions, where the mass of an entire sun is displaced within seconds. And then make precise distance measurments parallel and perpendicular to the direction of the supernova, and look for fluctuations to detect ripples created in space time. That's the gist of what I heard anyway

They are calculations not measurements. And it’s not really the measurement of the speed of light itself that is involved - it’s the sub-atomic measurements of distance, time, mass etc that are unachievable at the moment. What moment? This moment! Missed it again!! You see - we cannot really measure anything accurately. So what’s the point you may ask? We need a new “dynamic” model to supersede all known current science.

But it is also relevant to the frog and his pee. Is the 8 months accurate? Maybe the mass of his pee was dispersed in some other manner? Maybe his pee actually seeped out imperceptibly (ref problems with measurements). Is it even the same frog??

Everyone who has ever died, was on Earth or in it's atmosphere.

When Dinosaurs where around, Earth was on the other side of the Galaxy.

Earth is 20 galactic years old.

The human species have existed for 3% of a galactic year.

We are incredibly lucky to be here, enjoy it.

In September scientists revealed that they have detected phosphine in the clouds above Venus.

While the scientists are reluctant to say it's a sign of life, as far as we know, phosphine is only created by a biological source, ie. excreted waste gas, essentially farts.

If it's the case where living organisms are not producing the phosphine, it means that we have found chemistry we don't yet understand which is interesting enough.

But, if it's true that the phosphine in the clouds of Venus does come from a biological source, we have detected the first signs of life beyond Earth by their farts.

Sorry I should have said that phosphine is created in tiny amounts from non biological sources, not only by biological sources.

You have to wonder why 7 cocks though. Is it for spares..? Is it to accommodate females with different pussy sizes..? Is to to have a different one for each day of the week? And if so, is there a problem if you use your Monday cock on, say, a Thursday?

And then you have to wonder about the female. Does she have 7 pussies as well..? And if so, lining everything up must be a logistical nightmare any time they f**k. Foreplay would turn into some bug version of the Krypton Factor.

Dual penetration becomes multi penetration and if they’re going at it hammer and tongs and one slips out by accident, some serious damage could be done, never mind trying to identify the one that’s out of sync.

Most light contains all colours. When light hits an object, the object will absorb some colours and reflect others. We see the reflected colour.

That means the colour we describe is the least likely colour that the object is. An orange is anything but orange.

It's a beautiful illusion but when we think we are seeing a sun set, its already be below below the horizon. This is because atmospheric refraction allows us to see the Sun around the curvature of the earth's horizon.

So that photo is not really of the sunset. Same with the sunrise.
