Wrapping, padding ........... canoes Its waterproof ... the only issue is when it gets taken out and exposed to water ..... it sprouts mushrooms - but that could be good on a long trip https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/fungus-answer-climate-change-student-who-grew-mushroom-canoe-says-n1185401

It comes with its own cooling system, don't worry if it drips water , but remember to keep the water topped up .

'Junk DNA' is like most junk ... can;t figure out what it is for , or think of a way of recycling it ? ... its junk ! 'Junk' ( 'Non-coding' ) DNA is like the systems in your car ; all the components we can observe functioning and understand are like 'regular DNA' but how they function, when they 'run' or not and which other parts of the system they interact with , that's the 'junk' DNA . If you have climate control , all the mechanics of it are regular DNA , but its operation is junk DNA , if you don't have climate control , the same , but you are the junk . ... here is another thing ; there are all these traits that seem , in my observation (although some argue strongly against it ) it seems some of us come here with certain traits and , at least, proclivities . In some cases it seems certain they are not developed from environment and are not considered inherited genetically , yet .... there is a mass of DNA inside us that we don't understand ..... yet that cant be responsible for inheritance of things we don't think are genetically inherited ? .

You see them as a version of an old Ford ? ? ? .... oh wait , I get it ;

If I was going to suppose 'beings and their kin interacted with humans to guide and mold identity and actions' I would not suppose those beings where 'God and the devil ' .... even if they were ' real ' . The devil ? ......

You mean if they are not acting that way convincingly ? Ya know .... movies ....TV ...... people are 'actors' and 'pretending ' .

The dish washing liquid has run out . I'll get some next time I go shopping .

Ah ... in a thread about the depth of evil ..... what an apt adjective .

Thats all very sad . Poor animals . That toxic algae bloom stuff is effed up ; I saw a doco on Maya last night , after tests they found , after a long drought , it had got into the huge rain collecting ponds the Maya incorporated into their architecture that was used for agriculture and drinking ... a significance contributor to the end of Mayan civilization . I too had an encounter with sea lions ; in NZ . I saw a bunch of them out on the rocks, thinking I could walk out there I decided to go and take my camera ( pre mobile phone era) . I wound the strap around my wrist a few times and was holding the camera up high . It wasn't far nor deep but there was a strong current to and fro between the shore rocks and island from the swell, the surface under my feet underwater was volcanic , very rough uneven and numerous holes and very sharp and HUGE arms of thick spiky kelp were swirling around and wrapping around my legs and at times waist . But I got there . The sea-loins were on the other side of the rock so I crept up low and slow and rose from behind the rock , camera ready to get a surprise close up . Thing was, one of them must have heard or smelt me ? It was doing exactly the same thing as I was , slowly coming up from behind the rock to take a peek from the other side . We came over the rock the same time , sea lion's face right in front of the camera - it got a shock as I did and let out a growl (or whatever it was .... boy did its breath stink ! ) But I was quick enough to grab one of the most excellent shots , close up, right in its face . Then I had to get back . I nearly lost the camera , or at least nearly submerged it . Back through the 'tide' , the sharp rocks and holes, the leg lashing kelp and made it back to the rocks and over to the sand , pretty exhausted but thinking it was worthwhile , until .... yeah .... I still had the lens cap on

Nuts

Nyx ?

That's a curious and old fashioned way of looking at it . It was actually written in retrospect - probably by Josiah and his cronie scribes ; Now you people have to do this ... and you better do it as last time God said to do it and you didn't and look at all the shit that happened to you ! and not only that, we found this scroll full of laws no one has been following , we better reform all the religions around here and get to... I mean get back to my ... I mean God's plan and orders for us ... otherwise , you are going to see a shit storm like nothing you ever saw before , even worse than the Assyrian and Babylonian invasion and deportations ( and while I am at it I will make up a story about our glorious past .. when people DID follow God's law to establish a true religion ) . Maybe ... or it could be defined as people searching for and finding more efficient ways of killing each other .

Would you like to purchase a saree guard for your Royal Enfield ?

Hmmmm ..... close examination ; " If there are this many on the beach, maybe they have all blown in ?" <scans the ocean > "I don't think there are too many over that way ." .....

To me they fill the memories of a childhood day at the beach ! Zinc cream , hot chips and ......... ' blue bottles ! '

( gif won't work )

I have seen some strange things diving , but never one of these . I have never heard of them before . The pyrasol . Is it one creature or a collective ? It looks like a giant undersea worm / hollow tube . What's the big deal ? Well, some are big enough for a person to swim through !
