    I feel like I need OregonNukeSailor’s backstory. More for the name than the taxonomic viewpoints.

      I’m no nameologist but I think it means they were a sailor who rode nukes around Oregon, like that one cowboy riding a nuke in that cold war documentary I watched.

      Edit: here’s a screenshot from the documentary

        That kid was a prodigy. Landed that nuke softer than that jet blue with the sideways landing gear.

    I don’t know if “give” is a fair word to use there, lol

      No, in nature the mothers do “give” the milk to their young. Misuse of “give” when referring to dairy cows, however, is common.

    Sigh, what’s the definition of milk?

    Edit:

    1. A whitish liquid containing proteins, fats, lactose, and various vitamins and minerals that is produced by the mammary glands of all mature female mammals after they have given birth and serves as nourishment for their young.
    1. The milk of cows, goats, or other animals, used as food by humans.
    1. Any of various potable liquids resembling milk, such as coconut milk or soymilk.

    It mentions coconut milk specifically

      But coconut milk is made by crushing the coconut meat and mixing it with coconut water. Coconuts don’t make milk, they make water. Humans crush coconuts and call it milk.

    Has hair, has milk (sort of), yes. But, it isn’t mamal. It doesn’t maintain an internal body temperature through endothermy.
