The big pink dumpling things on the beach look more like mutated Portuguese Man O' Wars. Which, fun fact, while they look the part-- are not actually jellyfish. They are siphonophores. Siphonophores are colonial organisms. While they may look like one creature, are actually an aggregate of multicellular individuals who have hyper-specialized into a specific role to play in the overall siphonophore colony.

Alternately, the ending of the movie is her hallucinating as she's drowning in a puddle in the woods thanks to parasite-induced sleepytime. Or she's not drowning and that's just her brain interpreting how the parasite works before the lights go out and it assumes direct control.

I'm thinking the the memory issue glossed over in the beginning of the explanations may play a deeper role in explaining the effects of this infection. Along with some heavy lethargy, it seems as though the characters are experiencing periodic blackouts in which events are happening around them, but they are either out like a light or unable to remember. This seems most obvious with Emily and Randall. Randall is a drowsy boy throughout the film, yet Emily starts to succumb to the same drowsiness as the infection starts to spread. I forget where I was going with this.

Fun fact: the found that clay may have played a roll in the formation of the 1st genetic material (dumbed down explanation is that the theory shows evidence that the clay acted as somewhat of a catalyst for the reactions by acting as a substrate for the molecules to be held on, which allowed other molecules to react to it…. Think of those large, flat Lego plates you built little houses on) Also, the study gave some more evidence for the theory that RNA formed before DNA, (because RNA can form 3D structures, which act like enzymes… aka ribozyme activity)

Hey! Phytoplankton! I studied them for my master's thesis. I identified phytoplankton in a recently-restored estuary and determined seasonal changes in those communities. The various toxins produced by phytoplankton are terrifying. Hepatotoxins, neurotoxins, etc. There was one man who ate reef fish contaminated by toxins from algae that live on the reef that caused such severe brain damage that the man could no longer walk/take care of himself. I think it took him like 7 years to be able to walk or even shave himself.

They gave up a ton of genes on their way from 'free floating jellyfish' to parasites who are evidently the smallest animals ever known to man. They've lost genes that allow for the development and coordination of multicellular bodies, they've lost genes that allow for cell-to-cell communication, and there's one species that doesn't seem to have mitochondrial DNA. It can't produce energy the way pretty much all other animal cells produce energy. What it does instead, no one knows.

As someone with a bachelor's degree in zoology, I hear Roanoke regarding organic chemistry. Part of the reason I went with zoology instead of a standard bio degree was due to that major's organic chemistry requirements. I barely made it through my standard chemistry 101 prereqs, no way I would have survived organic chemistry. In contrast, my zoology major's physics prereqs were considerably easier than my earlier chemistry courses. Incidentally, for everyone in the comments inspired to pursue biology degrees after listening to Roanoke, Godspeed. A noble aim, but as someone who just finished a master's degree, *you might want to keep that **_informal_** for the time being.* Academia is a complete mess right now, Lysenkoism is rampant, and even without the Covid lockdowns my latest degree was significantly delayed due to having to take medical leave from the stress of living and working on campus. At this point, I can only recommend college to those pursuing hard STEM degrees, and even then the general sociopolitical atmosphere at university alone will be a serious impediment to your studies, to say nothing of the all to frequent open ideological partisanship of most faculty these days. *College campuses are a living Hell these days.* And until there's a major shake-up within our university system, I would strongly advise _holding off_ on higher education until the situation improves. On a similar note, if you ever intend to get a degree in the humanities, *_DON'T!_* Nearly all of those has been ideologically coopted, are useless in the job market, every major couched as "X studies" is political agenda-driven snake oil taught by midwits, and these majors in general are expensive wastes of time and money. The only humanities fields still worth a damn are anthropology and archeology, and even they aren't free of the aforementioned taint; due to the ideological bleed-over from other humanities departments, the academic rigor in anthro has gone down considerably just in the years since I got my bachelor's degree.

Yeah it's in high schools as well now, it was horrible psychologically for me to see a attempt at indoctrination by the school system while still being tethered inside of it and it only got more extreme and common place within the span of a few years, there's something that wants to program a ideological belief structure into the youth and it's influencing a lot.

​@@KyleRichter34 I mean that certain identitarian grifts masquerading as humanities (most notably "gender studies") courses have hijacked universities, engaging in nepotism favoring similar ideological snake oil programs, diverting funds from legitimate scholarship, and actively stifling research or publication thereof that runs counter to their chosen ideologies. Most humanities degrees these days result in theses that are logically incoherent but only get through the vetting process because they say what woke faculty want to hear, only to receive little (if any) citations in subsequent research. Case in point, while my degrees are primarily grounded in biology, I also have a passion for anthropology and archaeology, and have worked in collaboration with those fields before. I like to study ancient civilizations as a hobby, particularly with regard to art, religion, magic, etc. Consequently, one of the bonuses I took advantage of while pursuing my last degree was using my university's VPN to download articles of a like sort for my own "independent research." While doing such a deep dive, a Master's thesis by a fellow graduate of my last university caught my eye, specifically as it relates to the topic of imagery of diseases, deformities, and mutilation in Moche art. Now, this was far from my first rodeo on this topic. As an undergrad, I was so moved after reading Steve Bourget's _Sex, Death, and Sacrifice in Moche Religion and Visual Culture_ as an undergrad, I bought my own hardcover copy after graduation. As the title implies, Moche art is replete with complex imagery and themes of sex, death, and sacrifice, all alluding to a massive thematic complex that seems to relate to the border between life and death. It plays with dualities, using contrast and anachronistic ritual inversion to open up liminal spaces (e.g. red vs white, skeletal beings engaged in mutual masturbation, regular images of intercourse between bound sacrificial victims and [birthing persons] engaged in _exclusively nonprocreative sex acts,_ *disfigured individuals given shamanistic status/the duty of guarding ritual charnel houses before the remains within are buried,* etc.). And it is with the latter consideration in mind that I went into this paper; I had read enough by this point (both with Bourget and elsewhere) to know that the Moche seemed to have viewed the handicapped, mutilated, or survivors of disfiguring tropical diseases (most notably leishmaniasis, which is often deadly and can leave survivors with a drawn, cadaverous appearance) as symbolically trapped between the borders of life and death. In the Moche worldview, such individuals would have been marked and ascribed power by the gods, and were thus enlisted for a variety of esoteric tasks; they would not have been immortalized in Moche artworks otherwise, as such art was exclusively for elite and/or ritual use. Not surprisingly, I was hoping to gain some new insight from this paper. *What I got was politically correct, woke identity politics word salad.* Talking about gender norms, sexuality (worth noting, for all the sexual art that the Moche are infamous for, I know of exactly *ZERO* works that actually represent homosexual intercourse or intimacy, of either variety), and the unironic use of the term "ableism." At no point in the sections I did read was any mention made of the deeper esoteric symbolism I have already alluded to, especially relative to what we do understand about the significance of disfigured individuals in the Moche art corpus. *It read worse than a middle school student giving a history report using nothing but **_Ancient Aliens_** as their primary reference.* My own anthropological affinities aside, a far more egregious example occurred when I was taking a course on ancient DNA and human evolution, one that ultimately precipitated a meltdown and the need for therapy shortly thereafter. Now, our professor's lecture on the day in question concerned some research she was about to publish at a symposium about rape in the Democratic Republic of Congo. Now, for the most part, her findings were genuinely fascinating; among other things, [birthing persons] in a village would often be willing to _give their own rapists a pass,_ because whatever their crime, said rapists were still the militia keeping rival factions from killing/enslaving them/their families. A fascinating (if dark) compromise, truth be told. But then the professor said that *_rape rates are as high, if not higher, at US universities._* I nearly fell out of my chair, because I knew just how profoundly *_WRONG_* that characterization was. For context, I already knew well before taking this course that the "1 in 4" study had such shoddy methodology that even those who conducted the *original informal phone survey for a magazine* have since disavowed their previous findings (not that that's stopped gender studies "academics" from continuing to cite and sensationistically exaggerate the numbers of that "study"), that Congo has had *THE ABSOLUTE HIGHEST RAPE RATES ON THE PLANET FOR DECADES,* and that studies had just come out a little before I took this course indicating the absolute lowest rape rates globally occur on *Western college campuses and the surrounding neighborhoods where college students tend to stay.* I can only assume this professor was a feminist who simply never stopped to question the logical implications of her presuppositions/feminist memes which she just assumed on faith, but regardless, what she said was patently insane! I tried to press her on the logical inconsistency of this issue, when another student in the back (important: I was the only male student in this class) just said, "Well, rape culture...," at which point the rest of the class started nodding and agreeing like the clucking hens on _The View_ as if those two loaded words somehow explained everything. *I actually suffered a panic attack then, and it took all of my self control to keep from screaming before the lecture ended.* Worse, being openly politically right of Mao Zedong paints a target on your back. *This applies even to people like myself who try to remain apolitical;* Serious scholars are functionally bullied into keeping quiet/kowtowing to the PC narratives and mandates coming from the humanities. It's an environment of never-ending purity spirals and struggles sessions, where everyone is walking on eggshells and land mines. And despite my best efforts, I stepped on one of said land mines. One day, a certain disturbing news story came up on my feed. A certain convert to a certain "religion of peace" in one of the Nordic countries, in this case *the head of his country's department of antiquities,* was pushing forward plans to _melt down metal Viking artifacts_ (over the protests of museums and collectors across the globe) and _erect a mosque on a historical Viking battlefield._ Understand, while I could care less about what religion, if any, he practices, *he was actively destroying history, apparently based on an ideological animus.* I consider all history sacred, and its willful destruction a crime against humanity. This news left me so disturbed, I felt compelled to open up to a guy I chatted with now and again in the minutes before one of my lectures. Suddenly, some Coppercab-looking asshole down the row for us yelled "citation needed." He then started accusing me of getting my information from places like Stormfront (my source was a Scandinavian KZfaqr, and Google was throttling search results of the story _save for actual far right webpages)._ Before I could offer my source, he loudly called me, and I quote "a racist piece of shit." Turned every head in the lecture hall on me. I could barely croak out a "no" before fleeing the lecture hall. Also worth noting, *_Antifa was demonstrating on campus at the time._* I spent the next week holed up in my apartment, fearful that some SJW looking for scalps had followed me home, that Antifa might doxx or assault me, that rumors of my alleged racism had spread to my advisors, that my academic career might be over based on a lie, etc. Not surprisingly, the stress from my public slandering precipitated me going on medical leave a few weeks later. Academia is fundamentally broken right now. And I can't in good conscience recommend anyone subject themselves to the same Hell I went through to get my last degree.

The contaminated oyster infection was a slap to the face because here near Galveston Tx we had a serious outbreak of a dangerous bug. It was found out about 2 or 3 weeks later that it was thousands of “poisoned” oysters from the gulf. There were a few published papers talking about how the pollution from the oil refineries on the gulf might have caused the outbreak, but it suddenly stopped being talked about on the news and local papers suddenly. I’m just saying, it’s a little sus.
