A million years ago I read a short story that postulated that menopause and whatever the parallel male thing is are interrupted forms of a transformation like unto dissolving into goo within a cocoon and within the story some environmental change made it possible to complete that change. I think about that a lot. If Intelligent Design were a real thing, something like that would probably happen.
Riley: Oh, yeah. Sorry 'bout last time. Heard I missed out on some fun. Xander: Oh yeah, fun was had. Also frolic, merriment and near-death hijinks.

Natter 77: I miss my friends. I miss my enemies. I miss the people I talked to every day.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Happy Birthday Vortex!
Gary has this container of Dark Chocolate Power Mix on his desk, so I helped myself. Dried pineapple, yum. Almond, good. Dark chocolate covered.....coffee bean, bleah.(I didn't know what it was until I crunched down on it. I don't like the taste of coffee at all)

Yeah, and as I recall there was some sort of exoskeleton/armor being grown which also sounds like a pretty good idea.

Maybe an even better idea than bubble wrap!

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
I think an exoskeleton made of bubble wrap would not last very long because it would be too tempting to pop all the bubbles.

What if you could grow new bubbles?

You've got friends to have good times with. When you need to share the trauma of a badly-written book with someone, that's when you go to family.
Can confirm that denture tablets work to clean gunk out of stainless steel water bottles! No idea what the previous owner was drinking out of that, but wowzers.
