I'm pretty sure the tardigrade was either a monster in Pan's Labyrinth or Doctor Who. And considering the name . . .
I was expecting it to be a program to incorporate Doctor Who in teaching.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Speculatively. I would add numerous caveats to that though. (Not least being, I would assume that the majority of foreign genes that make it into a tardigrade will prove to be neutral or detrimental to its odds of survival. Just as with internal genetic mutations. But in terms of the evolving genome rather than an individual tardigrade, maybe?)

I think it's the mark you get on your assignment if it's late.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Someone save me from Christmas Carol tech rehearsals!
Are there no workhouses? Are there no prisons?
We opened Sunday and we start tech on Twist Your Dickens on Tuesday.
ION, I was not thrilled to learn that we'll have armed security at my workplace for the next few days.
