Anecdotal, but I’ve seen banana plants push out leaves vertically nearly that fast at their peak growth. Each leaf can be close to 6ft long, maybe longer. They shoot straight up out of the top of the plant when they come out, so they do temporarily add that much height.

When the leave gets completely pushed out, it unfolds and leans to the side and in the end only adds a foot or less to the full height.

Not sure if that counts, but they are fun plants to have. I’m in Midwest America… so you don’t have to be in a tropical area to grow them, but we do have to cut it down every year and cover it in mulch and leaves to protect it.

Our biggest gets to 16-18ft tall every year. One of it’s children we’ve given away is a bit bigger.

Same. Could use a reread. What a great book.

Sorry, I should have left a(n) /s.

That was the joke I was going for.

Enterprise, obviously…

I dunno if I’d say definitely. I don’t really doubt Q’s ability to pinpoint an appropriate spot in time and space, so it seems reasonable that he would actually take him there rather than just try to find a spot in space time that seems good enough to lie about it.

I thought for the longest time that homeopathy was just a generic name for alternative medicines or something. Wasn’t for me regardless so I never gave it a second thought or dug into it.

Someone recently explained what it was to me and I just started laughing. Hilarious. Kinda. I had no clue.

I’ve been saying the same thing for a while. Same with the massive waves of ‘inflation’ and enshittification.

On Android Space RPG3 (free) and Space RPG4 ($3?) are really good spiritual successors as well.

Some of the original team are also working on a spiritual successor. Have been for a while. Don’t remember what it’s called though.

You…

You shot Captain Hector?!
