Please put an NSFW tag on this. I was on the train and when I saw this I had to start furiously masturbating. Everyone else gave me strange looks and were saying things like “what the fuck” and “call the police”. I dropped my phone and everyone around me saw this image. Now there is a whole train of men masturbating together at this one image. This is all your fault, you could have prevented this if you had just tagged this post NSFW

Been a while since I've seen this one

That’s called grass. There are also some mushrooms in the grass.

They look more like a fungus than a plant

Is fungus differentiated from plants? Honest question, not a smartass one.

The four kingdoms of eukaryotes are:

Animals
Plants
Fungi
Protists

So, taxonomically, plants are as different from fungi as they are from animals.

Above that is the domains of life:

Eukaryotes (all of the above)
Bacteria
Archaea

Then above that:

Cellular life (all of the above)
Viruses
Viroids
Obelisks (Potentially. Just announced last month.)

Wild. Thanks for the terminology. I'm about to go down a Google rabbit hole now.

And then you got yer prions, which are just self-replicating proteins, and not considered living, but worth mentioning because they kinda act like it.

Shou@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 2y (1 reply)

They don't self-replicate. They interact with well-folded versions of the protein. Causing them to unfold and aggregate into plaques.

Thann@lemmy.ml · 3 pts · 2y

yeah, so they are similar to viruses in that they cant self-replicate because they need something very specific to attach onto to replicate.

Got any links on obelisks? Can't find anything other than articles on Egyptian sandstone monuments
