  1. "Scallops are neither male nor female. They can be both, or they can switch: male to female, female to male, according to the seasons and their biological needs. Scallop gender is as fluid as the ocean that they live within."

  2. 🥸 Ah, #Scallop, the language of choice for those who can't decide between symbols and neurons, as if #AI needed more seasoning. 🧂 Just what we needed: another "revolutionary" tool, based on #Datalog, to baffle even the most dedicated programmers. ⚠️ Perfect for when you want your Python code to be even less comprehensible. 🐍

    Pile driving repeatedly impacts the giant #scallop (Placopecten magellanicus) nature.com/articles/s41598-022

    "sea #scallops do a lot of clamming up when subjected to the loud underwater banging of pile drivers. If the #animals expend a lot of their energy doing that, they may not have enough left to respond to real threats... #SeaStars are one of the more common #predators #SeaScallops need to worry about."

    “Recent studies have shown that some species of #scallop are drawn to #light, and this has resulted in an innovative new method of #fishing that is more sustainable: Instead of using a net to drag along the sea floor, fishermen can now use lobster pots equipped with little #LED lights, a bit like an #underwater disco.”

  6. Do you know what a Potato Fritter is called in Coventry? That's right, a Scallop.

    Now, do you know what a Bap is called in Coventry? No? Well, it's called a Batch. I knew none of this until 5 years ago when I moved here

    So, a Scallop Batch is quite a thing in Cov. A bit of a local delicacy.

    And now you know.

    I have some exciting beer news later...

  10. “But as they eat some **scallops** for dinner, they didn’t noticed they are watched by a far more menacing animal .”

    Like previous years, I’ll do a story for Inktober. This year it will be the youth of Erie. Story and art by me.
