"Cause and Effect" returns to the beginning of the episode several times! (A dozen, a hundred, it's impossible to tell. But actually 3-4 I think)

I think the comic is pointing out a funny hypocrisy that we usually have between land bugs and sea bugs, but they are all bugs.
The original post used the word bugs, not insects. (Although the pic does seem to show only insects, I'd interpret that as a stock image fail)
Bugs are such a wide group already that to me it seems reasonable to include branches separated by 400 million years of evolution, much the way 'fish' is such a wide group that by a scientifically reasonable definition it can include all vertebrates as a subgrouping.
Can those values actually go above 1 even in theory?
"Bugs" (obviously not specifically Hemiptera) includes a Lot more than just insects. If you go back to the most recent common ancestor of everything commonly called a bug, I'm sure it's Way back there and its descendents would include not only ocean arthropods but I'd guess probably most things with shells. Possibly just most animals
And yes, we are that closely related to fish
That description reminds me a bit of Habitat for Humanity - I didn't know much about the organization before reading that page a minute ago, but have shopped at the thrift store and knew they use volunteers to build houses for lower income people.
I will never buy a phone directly through a carrier instead of the OEM. They are offering me some nice discounts right now, but I have no interest in a phone where I can't unlock the bootloader. (Or the carrier lock!)
I believe the reason that the wick degrades at 'just the right rate' is that the flame actually keeps oxygen from reaching the wick (so it can't itself burn) until the level of wax goes down enough that the top of the wick pokes out of the now lower flame.
Make sure it's not muted. The audio is the vehicle for this journey.
That, I would actually approve of. I hate ambiguous I and l.

Do you want evil Superman? Cause that's how you get evil Superman.
Serious answer: That would take more effort and energy than just dealing with it on earth by many orders of magnitude. It's even harder to launch into the sun than it is to launch it outside the solar system (which is also infeasible of course)
