Is that when you try to eliminate everyone named Gwen via mass murder, nominal cleansing, and lexical apartheid?

Technically, Nicko McBrain uses ONE drum set the SIZE of five or more separate sets! Anything else would just be silly! ๐
Don't worry, the UN will protect you!
What do they do!?
some shrikes are also known as butcherbirds because of the habit, particularly of males, of impaling prey onto plant spines within their territories. These larders have multiple functions, attracting females and serving as food stores.
The god in Hyperion is named after that bird. Great scifi classic.
Endymion / Rise of Endymion was a great sequel too
Highly underrated.
And I get why: it's just totally and completely different but it was still enjoyable on merit.
I thought it was even better than the first series. There's so many neat and unique concepts going on in that book. From the ultra-fast ship that decimates its passengers and then rebuilds them, to the concepts related to the philosophy of Pierre Tielhard DeChardin, it's a wonderfully thought provoking series all around. The AI and their machinations in that series is the best AI storyline I've ever read.
One of the serial killers in Hannibal as well.
Also the name of the guy who ran the gang that Han Solo was in as a kid.
Among the best sci-fi I ever read, incredible.
Oh...
Netflix and dismembering the prey I fucking impaled earlier?
Netflix?
Edit: nvm, I got it.
Thanks to its strong beak, it can tear even the strongest 3-ply toilet paper to shreds if it has been moistened beforehand.
Hide your paper!
Very metal
I love how you just casually used SCP wiki as a reference.
I was curious if people would notice, and it seems not everyone did. ;) Maybe someone got to be the daily 5,000 for SCP.
Oh damn! I thought they only did it with bugs. How TF did that tiny little bird capture and kill a rodent as big as it is? The bird doesn't even have any talons!
Hey orcas are cute too
โOi, cunt!โ
Songbirds in general can be unexpectedly vicious
That's the face of a stone cold killer
