Yay, that degrading video that I posted about recently, has been taken down! That's very positive.
Did you know...?

A cluster or group of butterflies is known as a kaleidoscope.

No requirement for a polychromatic pattern to contain all basic color ranges, so I guess even a single non-dull looking species could literally qualify if flying around in a jumble. There doesn't seem to be any real "rainbow butterflies" (non-fakes), although a Richmond Birdwing Butterfly might sport a bits of red, yellow, blue and green variety if viewed from the side with its wings raised upward.

Hmm. Having been away from SF for a while, returning recently to see all the sexist/misogynist type comments that are sporadic throughout the site, I wonder if that site is slowly becoming a closet haven for bitter/red pill types. No one seems to care. The messages are becoming more graphic, sexist and so on ...week by week. I'm surprised is all, as to why they aren't banning these guys.  Confused
Most of the moderators over there are morally depraved. So I'm not surprised.
Hmm, not sure what you mean. I posted earlier today that it seems there is a lot of outrage over the #metoo scandals but when it comes to calling out a guy posting blatantly sexist, rude comments on there, they do nothing. I won’t continue on there if that’s the tone, alpha wanna be’s promoting sexist, vulgar views about women, joking about rape. I’m not a prude but that stuff stands out on a forum like that. Go find a reddit subforum to fist bump your bros. Rolleyes

Ah, yea there are different moral discussions on there but I’d think the mods are against guys posting blatantly sexual and vulgar comments. James took down that one video but it seems like moderation is looser than it used to be. Meanwhile, MR gets banned for posting about aliens lol smh
They go easier on vocal political allies. MR posts enough woo to discount what little politics he wades into.
