And there I was thinking it was a diagram on what the mind of a Libertarian was really like inside…gothic horror disguised by tinselly “sparkles”…and it turns out to be tiny too. To learn that it’s called humped bladderwort is almost too precious to be true.
This is exactly the sort of thing that one can imagine, (if we could see closely related species), natural selection eventually and almost inevitably producing, whereas the idea that a loving god could do it is an absurdity, (unless it’s totally fucked-up).

It’s like album cover art, circa 1974.
