It's old news now, but I watched the Bishop speech video for the first time today, having previously avoided every single Star Citizen video because I just knew they would be cringeworthy and awful. Guess what, I wasn't wrong!

Jesus Christ how do you make something this bad without doing it on purpose. If it was just a tech demo for the facial mocapping then maybe it would be okay, but this is supposed to be the finished intro cinematic for an :airquote:AAA:airquote: videogame.

An almost entirely static presentation of some badly-proportioned old fart with a gigantic mouth making a speech that's not only laughably empty-sounding but would also be utterly meaningless to a new player, all with practically no non-facial animation whatsoever in the entire video. Look at how ridiculous that podium thump is. Then there's the swelling music in the background trying desperately to convince you how epic this near-motionless scene is, which pushes the entire thing almost to parody level. Like, they can't possibly be serious with this, and yet look where we are.

I was going to post screenshots of the stupidest faces he pulls but there's just too many. All you have to do is pause literally any time his mouth is open.

Honestly shocked not to see SANDI GARDINER anywhere in that credit reel, which also looks idiotic by the way. "WOOO LOOK AT OUR FANCY GRAPHICS AND HOW AWESOME WE ARE FORTY-TWO VERSE REDACTED ARE WE COOL YET??? o7 CITIZENS"

Thanks for asking

I had a couple hermit crabs once, they were pretty cool, liked to climb stuff and just hang around and chill. I remember they never used their big claws, but could pull themselves up obstacles one-clawed with the small one. One time I found one of them on top of a vertical stick ten times its height and I was like whoa how the gently caress do crabs climb???

Then I had to move and couldn't take them with me. I hadn't found a home for them and wouldn't have let them suffer a slow death through the Swedish autumn, so I was pretty much resigned to the thought of euthanizing them mercifully, rockwise. Fortune smiled upon us though, and I found a pet store that would take them both. I like to think they led a happy and long life thereafter

Those were my favorite crabs, thanks for letting me share

Wikipedia posted:

Several hermit crab species, both terrestrial and marine, have been observed forming a vacancy chain to exchange shells. When an individual crab finds a new empty shell it will leave its own shell and inspect the vacant shell for size. If the shell is found to be too large, the crab goes back to its own shell and then waits by the vacant shell for anything up to 8 hours. As new crabs arrive they also inspect the shell and, if it is too big, wait with the others, forming a group of up to 20 individuals, holding onto each other in a line from the largest to the smallest crab. As soon as a crab arrives that is the right size for the vacant shell and claims it, leaving its old shell vacant, then all the crabs in the queue swiftly exchange shells in sequence, each one moving up to the next size. Hermit crabs often "gang up" on one of their species with what they perceive to be a better shell, and pry its shell away from it before competing for it until one takes it over.

That is one swole crab. My joking favorite crab is the Kenyan Mangrove Crab thanks to Crab Battle, but my actual favorite has to be the Japanese Giant Spider Crab since it is beautiful in the sense that seeing one in-person is pure nightmare fuel.




You should just stop eating seafood, if that's your stance. And by seafood I mean all of it.

Also, you should stop eating chicken, too. They peck through detritus to find eggs, maggots, and other things to eat and I'll be damned if they don't manage to get a little bit of poo poo down their beaks.

Stone crabs are cool because you only eat the claw, and the claw re-grows. So when we go diving for crabs you twist off their claws and let them go. It probably sucks a lot for the crab, but at least they don't get boiled alive.

e: Japanese spider crabs are terrifying. I can deal with most underwater stuff, but I'd probably poop a lot if I saw one diving. They're scary enough in aquariums.
