scififantasystuff Unfortunate news... scientists have discovered that shrimp do not see "extra colors". We thought that they did because they have 12 different molecules for photoreceptors, whereas humans have only 3. BIG difference, right?? Nope. Turns out that they simply do not have the mental wherewithal to blend, and so needed a separate receptor for each color. The human brain adds color emissions together to create a singular representative color, like reverse engineered printing. Shrimp can't do that. They can't take light emitting "green" and light emitting "red" and come back with "yellow", like we do. They have to have a receptor for yellow, and are relatively horrible at distinguishing shades of colors. So at the end of the day, not only do shrimp not have "extra colors"... they see less than we do. Shrimp can't see the fake colors :( constellrose babe wake up new shrimp color drama dropped

homunculus-argument My theory is that ghosts get their energy by sucking the oil out of door hinges. That's how you know a place is haunted. Because the doors creak, even if you've just oiled them. The ghosts suck the oil out.
