It's a misleading legend, but the note at the bottom tries to clear it up a bit. This map seems to more be like "We took the range maps of 238 species of fish and overlaid them. The red area is where practically all of those range maps of each 238 species of fish overlapped." Of course there are other fish, but they were not included here because the map maker didn't have the right kind of dataset for them. To me that seems to indicate that this map isn't so much a map of actual biodiversity measured, but the potential for biodiversity of the region. Given that it's fish, I guess we shouldn't be surprised that this area is somewhere between/near the northern continent's biggest river, a large gulf, and ancient mountain range, and a coast with a strong warm current (for now...).

And the pineapple armor works wonderfully, until its enzymes digest you enough that the line between knight and pineapple becomes unclear, like Leto Atreides II covering himself in Sand Worm Trout and becoming the God Emperor of Dune.
This map really brings home how awful this projection is for this map's purpose and how awful most projections really are near the poles. Greenland isn't that big. I know this map is Plate Carree, not Mercator, but the size issue of an equirectangular projection is really similar when comparing longitude and size for the entire globe from pole to equator. 15 degrees of longitude for a timezone stops making sense that close to the poles. Greenland would mostly fit in the central time zone of the United States for example. Given its sparse population, dividing it up into 3 timezones seems unnecessary.
No longer profitable FOR THE ARTIST. Profit is absolutely being made from touring musicians, it's just not going to the people actually making the music.
In the US it must be Springfield because there's so fucking many of them that they ~~named~~ made a TV show after it.

You're a biological garbage disposal and your shit goes down the same sanitary sewer line. It's just food scraps like peels, stems, and trimmings. Hardly qualifies as 'insane'.
Mustard is an amazing spice to use (along with others) when roasting carrots. I'm sure mustard (as long as you're not allergic) would be a valuable addition to a carrot soup. OP commented the soup was meh. It probably was lacking in spices.
This is a gross misinterpretation of the Schrödinger's cat thought experiment and how the lottery actually works. That said, this is genuinely a shower thought because it's logic evaporates as quickly as you dry off and put your thinking pants on.
Yeah, it's super weird. I once named a file with mixed case, but one of the letters was the wrong case. Renaming the file didn't work at first. Renaming a file named PAscalCase.txt to PascalCase.txt resulted in no change to the filename. Windows continued to show it as PAscalCase.txt. I had to rename it to something totally different with different characters entirely, then rename it again to get it right.
Maybe, but they're paying attention to the task of scanning items, running the register, and the customer at the front of the line. I don't really think it's reasonable to expect them to keep an eye on that moving target as well. I've seen the very thing happen: Loading my stuff on to the belt, trying to leave a space because there is no divider available, the cashier is busy concentrating on the other things they are doing and the customer in front of them (not me and my stuff), they grab the last item of the other person's stuff, scan it and bag it, turn back to check for more stuff (by this time and while the cashier's back is turned the void I'd left is gone because the belt doesn't stop advancing until a divider or product blocks the sensor). They may not ever see a gap (only the next item to be scanned).
There's no perfect solution here, but I don't see any reason to heap any more responsibility or blame on to an overworked, underpaid, daily abused retail worker just trying to stay sane in one of the most soul crushing and mind-numbingly repetitive jobs I've ever known.
