For example, you could use certain neurotoxins like poison dart frog poison for self defence, though this would require physical contact. The only rule is that an animal has to produce the chemical you secrete. You could use skunk spray too for example.

If you want to make money, the most expensive venom in the world is Deathstalker Scorpion venom. It’s $40 million per gallon, so you could produce the stuff yourself, bottle it up and then sell it

I might choose death, but maybe not because I feel like I might let too many people off the hook. Maybe I could be justice instead and do a better job of it. I think that’d be a low bar to clear

If you don’t want to feed it, you can just invest the money, get a few hundred thousand for free and let the plant starve.

The way I see things, you’re cooked either way. If you do nothing, the Woodvilles rush Prince Edward to London and get him crowned, and from there they control the body of the King and can put whatever decree they want in front of him and can get it signed. You know they don’t like you, and they know you don’t like them, so they can use any perceived slight by you against them to declare you a traitor and strip you of your lands.

If you try and control Prince Edward yourself, by doing what Richard did historically by intercepting him at Stony Stratford and arresting the boy’s uncles, he’ll always remember that, and it’s only a few years till he reaches his majority. He lived with his maternal uncles and kind and barely even knows you. Same as before, you lose your head.

That leaves the third option of taking the crown yourself, and I really don’t see a better option than that

Like, at the top, it must be Julius Caesar and Antony and Cleopatra. The events of both plays and even some phrases are lifted straight out of Sir Thomas North’s translation of Plutarch. I don’t know what’d be at the bottom though. Maybe Henry VI Part 1

Say you could put someone you really don’t like in the body of a dog — not forever, mind, but for a short while. I think it’d be a very apt punishment for animal abuse.

You can just reach into your pocket and pull out a stack of hundred dollar notes, to pocket change depending on what you want in the moment

If you increase the stuff, it makes someone’s heart rate slower, and they produce more saliva and tears. As it scales upwards, all of those effects are intensified, and you experience twitches and spasms. Your stomach also starts playing up and you find yourself needing to shit more often. Keep going and then you end up with confusion, paralysis, coma and death.

If you decrease the amount, the opposite more or less occurs. Your heart rate increases, your pupils dilate, and your mouth and eyes are drier. As you increase acetylcholine, you experience constipation, feel incredibly tired and struggle to think straight. Oh, and your eyes become worse and worse, and then you start to trip

I have this obsession with Shakespeare, and acting out the lines is just incredibly fun, and sometimes I record it, but I have nobody to share the recordings. Is AI at the stage yet where it can discuss any performance at mine with me and what AI can I use for free or cheap?

I just have this vibrant world in my mind, and I wonder how a production could best my imagination. How do you show a shape-shifting spirit or a half fish half man monster without modern CGI?

You can’t physically interact with him. He’s behind an unbreakable glass wall.

He doesn’t have to sit absolutely still to win; micro-expressions, less visible movements and blinking don’t disqualify him. If he ever flinches though, or contorts his face, he loses.

Also called “the suicide plant.” You ought to use a globe, so you actually have a functional limb to wipe with. There has to be no barrier between the leaves of the plant and your anus. The venomous plant will appear magically in front of you should you agree to the offer

Really underrated play man

You can turn the ability on and off. What do you use it for?

It can’t take off, but you still have access to an infinite number of rooms, a food dispenser and a library containing a copy of every volume in time and space.

You can choose what you’d disguise the outer shell as and where you’d put it. You can also adjust the weight of the outer shell. The only rule is that you can’t surrender or give the machine away.
