Did you even know that among all the other stuff he's known for, Darwin also wrote about insect-eating plants? I didn't, but now I do, and that's totally kickass. Even moreso than before.

I said it online last night and I will say it again. Charles Darwin is the ultimate role model. He was a brilliant man, and of all the historical figures we revere these days he is probably the only one with no skeletons in his closet. Just a nice, reasonably wealthy family man who actually did love his wife and kids, who was WAY ahead of the curve.

*hugs his memory*

There is no word harsh enough for this. No verbal edge sharp and cold enough to set forth the flaying needed. English is to young and the elder languages of the earth beyond me. ~Frigid
