Despite the common name of "yardlong", the pods are actually only about half a yard long, so the subspecies name sesquipedalis (one-and-a-half-foot-long; 1.5 feet (0.50 yd)) is a more accurate approximation.

It's commonly understood that when the moon sets and rises again the next day, that's not a "new moon" that is the same moon coming around in the sky again. But the moon does a cycle of waxing and waning again every month (well, 28 days), and then you get a "new moon".
So "one moon" = one cycle of moon phases = roughly 1 month. This is where months came from.
I dropped out of physics grad school (got a master's degree as consolation prize). I needed a job, and knew how to code. So I applied to some big tech company and I was like "you're going to pay me HOW much??" I had no idea I could get paid so much for just writing code and fixing bugs and stuff.
But now I really want to throw away that money and stability to work on AI alignment research, because it's the most important thing in the world.
Oh, now I can see the normal subscribe button again! Maybe it was some temporary glitch, but it seemed to happen to every remote community for a while...
Unless someone makes some kind of migration tool perhaps...
