I’ll die trying to pet something I shouldn’t, and at least get to cuddle with a lion cub before mommy lion rips my throat out.
Pretty much. And for etymology searches like this Wiktionary is a life saver. Just type in hippocampus and follow the link rabbit holes, and it gives you the etymology: hippocampus < hippocamp (mythical sea monster) < hippos (horse) + kampos (shark).
Campus might be from the Latin “campus, ī, 2m” for field or plain… maybe something to do with the “horse” part of it?
EDIT: nope. Kampos is also from Greek, it means sea monster or shark in this context… and hippos of course is horse. They had a “hippocamp” in mythology with the front end of a horse and rear of a dolphin, hence the “sea monster” etymology. Real sea horses are thus named because they resemble a miniature hippocamp.
This is what too much English grammar does to one… I hardly understand myself. But nah lol that’s not how I always talk, I was just trying to use perfect grammar since the whole point was to defend an unusual grammatical construct.
“Below” is used as a stranded preposition in your case (the more generally accepted usage), whereas the original post uses it at an adjective. While usage of “below” as an adjective is not universal, it is still accepted by some dictionaries. I could only find the Webster English Dictionary as an example, so I suppose it’s mostly exclusive to American English. So yes, your example is the more universal mode (as well as my personal preference), but American English generally accepts the above usage as proper grammar. (The sentence above, as well as this one, demonstrate the usage of “above,” a relative locus, as both an adjective and a preposition in modern English).

Is this how you get Heimdal? (mythologically “the Son of 9 mothers”)
Agreed, I think a lot of conservationism can even go too far in removing or preventing natural adaptation to the human presence. I was mostly referring to cases where humans can transport species between local ecosystems in a way that wouldn’t occur otherwise, which can result in an environmental imbalance that doesn’t always fix itself since such changes in range don’t usually occur naturally on a scale as large as with, say, the introduction of the brown marmorated stinkbug into North America from Asia.
Were they introduced to the west by humans? If this migration is occurring without human intervention this is just evolution doing its thing.

Young folk who have lost hours of progress in robotics programming projects too… Once is enough to learn your lesson. The inevitable second time is traumatizing. By the third time, you hit Ctrl+s five times after every paragraph.

“Church’s role in harming kids…”
That’s a funny way to spell “church officials raping kids…”
Editorial watering down like this is disgusting. Even if it wasn’t intentional, if you as the reporter aren’t comfortable calling sexual abuse rape in a headline and have to water it down to “harm,” that’s another reason to keep it full-strength. If it makes people mad, good. The truth should make people mad in cases like this.
