| Speculative biology is simultaneously a science and form of art in which one speculates on the possibilities of life and evolution. What could the world look like if dinosaurs had never gone extinct? What could alien lifeforms look like? What kinds of plants and animals might exist in the far future? These questions and more are tackled by speculative biologists, and the Speculative Evolution welcomes all relevant ideas, inquiries, and world-building projects alike. With a member base comprising users from across the world, our community is the largest and longest-running place of gathering for speculative biologists on the web. While unregistered users are able to browse the forum on a basic level, registering an account provides additional forum access not visible to guests as well as the ability to join in discussions and contribute yourself!

Bath? Wells? Stratford-upon-Avon? Winchester? Portsmouth? Somerset's a bit... well... Somerset. Not that i hate the region, that's where cheddar comes from and the Cotswolds are pretty. Bath is the wealthiest of those i think. The accent is the least pronounced there too, and there's far less ethnic variety. The private schools are big, expensive and full of rich children, but there are a few state schools. People from Bath can get jobs in Bristol, but many people in Bath are retired. |

Pando, Seascorp move to the South East, its nicer. You can understand the accent better if you are american as it is a bit more posh sounding (despite the fact I don't sound that way). Kent is the garden of England You will be near all of the history Dover, Canterbury and Maidstone to name a few. We have more castles than any other county (I think). Kent is awesome!

My friend spent most of his life in Kent, apparently it is good. Sounds a bit flat though. |

Two continents. A large bundle of islands. And Greenland, which is a constituent of Denmark... In Kent, i've been to Margate, Ramsgae and Broadstairs. |

While I absolutely love the United States, I wouldn't mind moving to Britain or at least going on an extended vacation there. And if I do emigrate to Britain, I will probably move to Kent. |

Kent does seem nice. How's the weather there? Also, how big exactly is Britain? How long would it take to drive from west Wales to east England and south England to north Scotland? |

I hope your friend didn't run "amok" - sorry - associating your comment about Kent with the late great Warren Zevon song "Werewolves of London" : [/small] I like Kent, because that's almost how New Zealanders say that very bad taboo "c" word... "You're a kent!" |

And if I ever go back to visit ol' Blighty - will definitely be checking out the West Country - Wessex - domain of Alfred the Great, the last bastion of Anglo-Saxon England... And drinking pints of cider! I love the West Country accent. That's where "Pirate Talk" comes from.... Arrr.... Aye!... Arrr.... My great great Grandfather was from Somerset, he got 14 years transportation for manslaughter at the Devon Assizes in 1838. Even today, there are more individuals with my surname in phonebooks in Somerset, per capita or something, than anywhere else in the world... Any my lovely wife was born in Westbury Wiltshire (within sight of the "chalk horse"), but her folks were from Yorkshire (and she emigrated with them here when she was two). |

No, don't move to England! Move to America! First of all, London is full of cameras. In America, we believe that fuck cameras in public places. Secondly, I've read a while ago about people arrested in England for tweets. America doesn't care what you do on the internet, so long as you pay for it. Say whatever you want, flip people off at random, heil in a public place; I guarantee you that nothing will happen (other than you getting a few stares). My point is freedom. So long as you can get hold of a source of income, you can afford to pay for an education and get a better job. Then you can pay for a better education, and get a better job. If you can keep it up and take the opportunities you find along the way, you can achieve a lot of what you desire. Obviously the ideal of America being the land where immigrants come and invent something and revolutionize the world isn't so prevalent in the modern world, but if you work at it and have patience you can have a pretty good life. Better than in London, dealing with all those stuffy Brits and their rules. |

We should all aspire to die surrounded by our dearest friends. Just like Julius Caesar. "The Lord Universe said: 'The same fate I have given to all things from stones to stars, that one day they shall become naught but memories aloft upon the winds of time. From dust all was born, and to dust all shall return.' He then looked upon His greatest creation, life, and pitied them, for unlike stars and stones they would soon learn of this fate and despair in the futility of their own existence. And so the Lord Universe decided to give life two gifts to save them from this despair. The first of these gifts was the soul, that life might more readily accept their fate, and the second was fear, that they might in time learn to avoid it altogether." - Excerpt from a Chanagwan creation myth, Legends and Folklore of the Planet Ghar, collected and published by Yieju Bai'an, explorer from the Celestial Commonwealth of Qonming Tree That Owns Itself

You will be near all of the history Dover, Canterbury and Maidstone to name a few. We have more castles than any other county (I think). Kent is awesome!
