Marine mammals continually amaze me. We don't breathe down there, friends. Why do you yearn so for the depths?

“The study suggests that the ability of the blood-filled cavernous sinus to conduct sound was an evolutionary accident. At first, this probably made underwater sound too loud, but pinniped middle ears evolved again to adjust this amplification.” #scicomm www.sciencenews.org/article/seal... 🧪 👂

I think one of my favorite parts of the exorcism idea is that it requires the diety to be sitting back the whole time prior. "Michael, I am leaving that demon in there until someone does the hand wavy thing...No, we have been over this! I like to watch them find parking with the demon inside them."

Why is Barnes & Noble allowing this charlatan to practice her fraudulent nonsense in one of their stores? At a minimum, you'd think they wouldn't allow it for liability purposes with people falling to the ground.

Oh sweet summer child, you posted this on the wrong website. Imagine a dad watching a billionaire walk into his house to touch the thermostat. Stand your ground laws might become relevant. Maybe the data centers can sponsor solar programs so homes can get cheap installations instead?

More efficient energy use among homes — through tiny tweaks in thermostat and battery use — could free up the grid for data centers to come online.

When I was finishing nursing school 13 yrs ago it was ~1:10. 10 yrs prior to that Scrubs released an episode w/ a male nurse where Elliot had trouble getting over that fact. The ratio changes greatly when you get into critical care and advanced practice, as ICU/ER is ~1:4 and for CRNAs it is ~1:1.

Only about 1 in 8 nurses are men, but their share is growing. A strong job market for nurses and sustained efforts to recruit men into the field have made a difference, including in the South. n.pr/4hu0aOm

There is something extra ghoulish about Canes using AI-generated images of a dead man to sell chicken fingers. I don’t care how awful of a person Chuck Norris was later in life, this feels so fundamentally wrong.

I've decided to compile a definitive thread of photos of the best sheep I've photographed during my walks in the countryside, together with supporting biographical information. I will put the vital story associated with each sheep in the alt text, since some of it is a little long to fit in a post.

A nihilistic sheep, who, like so many other sheep, just wants to watch the world burn, staring at me insouciantly, moments after it has set fire to a large portion of the United Kingdom.
