I too was waiting for my cold coffee to warm up a bit while typing

can i just ask why all the downvotes, did i get something wrong?

Sorry did not get this one, is it because if there would more leaching on ocean floor, and possibly increasing depth (i dont think that would have any realistic impact) or is it in a joke-y sense saying that sponges have soaked up water and if they were not there, then sea level would be higher? If that is the one, then actually if sponges were to be removed, then the total sea level would technically decrease (not going into any biology here) purely because sponges in non expanded form will have some volume, and that is a non zero amout, going in water, they just have absorbed it - or to be more precise - swollen, so the original volume is still there, and if no sponges, that miniscule amount would be removed. And maybe if no sponges, then lots of fauna would die, and now i need a biologist (the marine kind) to confirm that for most aquatic stuff, they tend to have densities close to water itself (so they can be gravitationally neutral, and some puff up/release air from stomach to change densities slighlty so as to adjust to water density) and remove that much amount of fish would just remove there volume, and assuming same density, sea level would decrease. But maybe no fauna means huge algae bloom, and floor fauna to die, and reduced co2 capture levels by seas, and due to then possible increase in co2 levels would cause accelerated glacial melting and higher sea levels so more depth, but maybe in that case humans would not survive, and possible our emmissions gone would mean on land co2 capture would be more feasible, and maybe further decrease.

Recursion depth reeached NaN. Halting.

let me test my powers

tests completed

I would also like to volunteer, although I don’t really have any experience modding a lemmy community, is there a guide or something? I would love to help if I can

was not expecting cft

most fears are kinda like intuitions, where you come up with scenarios of things going downhill, they can definitely help you skip a few such scenarios

happy you are all good. Some people who are not well find there lives to be lacking, and long for some imaginary things. And sometimes just asking directly helps

sorry, but your comment felt slightly depressing, just wanted to ask you if you are well

you seem slightly sad, wanna discuss?

i would believe this, if the physics in our dreams stays consistent, which it does not

i did not necessarily me mean our as in the person who is dreaming, our as in mostly humans, it is like a diorama we run, not exactly playing sims in our mind

well that gives me some soothe

my family is dying and i dont like it, atleast get me on the tracks with them, would not be able to live with the guilt anyway

i dont really have anything to add or ask, but appreciate what seems like unicode character in your username.

it maybe, but i dont think so, most animals dont go out of their ways to breed with same species from far off, especially if the said species forms communities. I think the simpler logic is - boredom - the people you grow up watching everyday become the normal, and if someone new comes, you curiosity gets to it
