What? No one is comparing them. The question was asked, are they dangerous? OP mused that they have no natural weapons, or danger per se, but instead borrow the jellyfish’s defense. So they are painful in their defense. Likely not aggressive.

“Despite the unsavory or toxic taste they can present to their non-human predators, most nudibranchs are harmless to humans, except those like Glaucus atlanticus which consumes nematocytes and so may consider you a predator and sting”

Of course.

This particular species does sting, so I would argue it is dangerous. But its mechanism is super interesting: it eats the stinging cells from jellyfish, absorbs them into its own body, and uses them to sting others the same way. Some even release acid. Incredible!

That is my thinking, too.

Not Op but I think Peacock is $80 yr vs Netflix $84 / yr lowest ad-supported tiers. I agree you get more shows and movies with Peacock. But gosh, I resent streaming becoming cable just a bit.

I know Peacock is free with some other services. Like Xfinity and Instacart. There’s always the high seas.

I’m confused. What are you saying? That word is thrown around against socialists. Tankies is often used to shut someone down and ignore what they’re saying no matter how correct it is, or how little it has to do with Marxism.
