You and me, baby, we ain't nothing but mammals.
Sir, this is a Wendy's (and not the Discovery Channel)
"Hey look at this cool rock i found" is definitely a valid courting technique for neurodiverse persons :3
but USUALLY never diamonds.
It's also good for (at least some?) neurological people. I rarely connect with people romantically, but if a dude just wanted to show me cool rocks he'd found, I'd definitely be well on my way to falling to in love
best I can do is two marbles and a stick
That's because diamonds are pretty boring. The only thing they have going for them is sparkling. There are SO many prettier gemstones out there.
Hard disagree: they exhibit 4 perfect octahedral cleavage planes in addition to their adamantine lustre, diamond is one of the most useful materials in existence, and their petrological origins speak to incredibly interesting conditions of formation! In fact, a mineral inclusion within a diamond gave us our first solid evidence of the existence of water at equilibrium with mantle rock at depth on Earth, which was previously largely discounted.
But yeah, fuck De Beers.
Chicken thoughts is a great webcomic. I don't own a bird and thanks to chicken thoughts I never will.
