    Remember my biochem professor showed that chart at the end of “Biochem 100” We had focused in citric acid cycle, the electron transfer in the mitocondria, basic genetics (amino acids, RNA, DNA), neogluconesis, and something about removing nitrogen from cells +a whole lot more I can’t remember 20 years after the class.

    I ended up doing physical chemistry doing my master thesis on thermodynamics in enzymes. Only a couple of formulas and four laws that is already well defined. Way easier than this

    There was this docureality about seal hunters in the Arctic on Norwegian television a few years back. One of the crew contracted “Spekkfinger” and they had to travel a day to Iceland to drop him off. Apparently there still is a demand somewhere for greenland seal as there was a few boats that the show followed. And they had a crew with cook and all.













  • Loke also transformed into a mare, had sex with a stallion and gave birth to Sleipner. (I use my native Norwegian names on the stuff from Norse mythology)

    From wiki: "However, Loki had “such dealings” with Svaðilfari that “somewhat later” Loki gave birth to a grey foal with eight legs; the horse Sleipnir, “the best horse among gods and men.”
