        Yeah, what the fuck?

        A plain is mostly grasses. Meadows, fields, and battlefields have flowers.

        And love can bloom on them.

      For 2023, the number of births with name River is 3084, which represents 0.168 percent of total male births in 2023.

      Tundra is not in the top 1000 names for any year of birth beginning with 2020. Please enter another name.

      Was looking them up at https://www.ssa.gov/cgi-bin/babyname.cgi but now “This website is temporarily unavailable,” did everyone have the same idea and it’s only resourced for 1qps?

            I’m thinking of River Tam, from Firefly.

            Whether she can or can’t do that is still debatable, but she did tell Jayne she could. And she can read minds, so it’s not entirely out of the question…

    Tangent but… Wow it didn’t even occur to me that paludariums were so named because that’s the type of ecosystem they are mimicking, rather than some guy named Paul invented a cool-style terrarium/aquarium merger… (example below)
