what is this trope about burying corpses under rose bushes. they're such measly little plantlings. surely you'd want to bury a body under something a bit more substantial? something more capable of absorbing all of that delicious nutrience? what common garden plants will most efficiently compost a corpse? i wanna hear from tumblr horticulturalists on this

Ignoring every single other controversial trait about ai, can i just ask what exactly happened to googling things????? Cause like. 'i asked chatgpt this or that and it gave me shitty responses' you could have done all that by just putting your question into a search bar and clicking on the first site you get. Like ???? Am i in crazy town right now????? Why do these people use chatgpt when googling is and always has been right there ????????

do we still do science side of tumblr posts and do they know why we can't fix heatwaves with heat pump electricity generation?

I know that this can't possibly be the solution, but I know geothermal power and I know conservation of energy, so why doesn't existing greenhouse gases stabilized=infinite electricity+stable temperature?

Like in my head the stupid solution is heat pump all the heat into geo thermal plants and use it to make light and mechanical energy in cars and shit and I know those offput heat but like, use the offput heat for more energy? and so less energy would be in heat form, therefore no heat to be waving.

Is this a real solution but it's cost prohibitive to implement before it's too late? Is it too ecologically damaging to make the materials needed to support that sort of infrastructure? What's the blocker because I KNOW it's there.

Okay, can someone explain to me why this is happening.

When I was 16 I had a period craving for froot loops and a craving for strawberry yogurt. Luckily I had both. However I did not have milk. So, me, sixteen, in the middle of hour 3 of a cramp, hungry, running on 4 hours of non-consecutive sleep for around 30+ hours of sleep at 1 a.m., and slightly delirious, decided that the best course of action would be to combine the two cravings.

My logic here was that people combined other cereals, like honey bunches of oats or cheerios with vanilla yogurt all the time so if I took fruity yogurt and fruity cereal and mixed it should taste good. Spoiler, it did not.

Now im gonna be honest with you, its not horrible, but its also not not horrible. Its sort of gooey-ish, more like a thick creamy texture, with soggy crunchs mixed throughout. It looks terrible:

But theres nothing inherently wrong with it. Given to the right person or batch of people they might even like it, like the British, they like weird things, I mean they came up with beans on toast. Anyways I personally view it as my deepest crime against humanity (hopefully this does not last as the record holder) and I never thought I would make it again. In fact I stopped eating it after only a few bites. But then 5 minutes later I took another bite. Still just as awful, butni did. And then a bit later I did it again, and then I actually put my fic down (which for me to willingly stop reading to focus on something else non-related to the fic im reading is insane and very rare) and focus entirely on eating it. When it was gone I thought maybe I was just weird and moved on. But then two months later I had strawberry yogurt, front loops, and no milk, and I did it again. Again it was awful, again I ate the whole thing, and this has happened again and again. To the point its not even a thing that only happens on my periods.

In summary my question is this.

WHY?

Why is it this thing. This creation. This abomination, continues. I do not enjoy it, in fact it gives me the hicca-coughs, but even so I still cant help but eat it again and again, I need an answer to this because I have just gotten the urge to purposely buy strawberry yogurt and froot loops without milk and im concerned.

okay something I've been wondering

why do different countries/regions have different outlet shapes/voltages?

like my family and I have traveled internationally A LOT and its something that genuinely intrigues me, especially cause I've never gotten a real answer other than "different standards I guess"

but WHY are there different standards is what I want to know. what makes it so that different countries HAVE those different standards in the first place?

science side of Tumblr, this is my first time summoning you and I trust your answers
