Nice! I think the third one is about corvids. I haven't got around to it yet as I got sidetracked with other books.
Out of interest what are you guys using to track books? I'm still using good reads. I know it's crap, but haven't looked into anything else.
I can't remember exactly where I learnt about the LPSO. Might have been a documentary. Hopefully climate change doesn't wipe them out.
There is a book by Adrian Tchaikovsky about a planet taken over by genetically modified octopuses that started their own civilisation. They even had their own space ships. Children of Ruin is the title if anyone's interested.
There was a species discovered awhile ago that formed colonies and was observed pair bonding, intimate mating and spawning multiple times over their lifetime. Completely unlike other octopuses. The Larger Pacific striped octopus.
Sadly, their lifespan is only about two years, which probably is why they aren't the dominant species.
it's a great song and nice little history lesson in one!
I mentioned a few months ago about getting a new mattress, well we finally did it last week. Ended up getting the extra firm Ecosa mattress on sale and it's SO firm and great. Almost feels like sleeping on the floor. It's definitely helping my lower back pains and feels a lot better when I wake up in the morning.
The hunt is still on for a larger car/seven seater.
I don't know, to have all four wheels come off makes me think he only put the lug nuts on intending to tighten it after, but forgot to do it.
The description of what happened makes it sound like a cartoon .
EDIT: Actually just reading it again, I can't tell if the wheels fell off or the tyres came off the rims?
Not going to lie, I don't even know of any NZ songs released last year..
The only one I can think of was released in Jan this year, Alien Weaponry's Mau Moko. Not sure if metal songs are ok?
Haha do you mean.. remembering?
Thanks, I'll look into bookwyrm. I like to see how many books I read every year, which is mainly what I use Goodreads for.
Maybe we need a Lemmy Nz ebook repository
