Serranus

Serranus is a genus of fish in the family Serranidae.[2] It is one of five genera known commonly as the "Atlantic dwarf sea basses".[3] These fish are hermaphrodites, each individual possessing functional male and female reproductive tissues. When a pair spawns, one fish acts as a male and the other acts as a female.[4]

gollark: A Python interpreter exists on most modern systems which aren't bad like Windows, and there are tons of implementations.
gollark: SIMD™!
gollark: Well, I suppose you could tcc.
gollark: Retroactively erase knowledge of it, why?
gollark: You're forgetting the entire OS, gcc/clang, the entire x86 architecture, the particular implementation of x86 in your computer, and the various standards allowing this to interoperate nicely.
