Please, please take a minute to read this. It got around on The Bad Place - but we'll need to do some outreach/education here on Faked and Cruel "nature" photos. www.pbs.org/newshour/sci...
You didn't know that you needed a picture of a tiny frog riding a giant beetle, but now you do.
When whimsical wildlife photography isn't what it seemswww.pbs.org This photo looks cute, but it reveals the cloudy intersection of wildlife photography, animal welfare issues and photojournalism integrity.

Amazon's trying to save its nonexistent face. We know this. I know people who work in those warehouses locally. The injury rate is "when" not "if" and incredibly common. Driver harm is also really high. It's awful and I do not find this report surprising but do hope it leads to corrective action.

in 2013 I saw a man get a 100,000 hour probation on the SomethingAwful forums and today I saw him come off probation and immediately pick up the same argument, quoting a reply from 2013, absolute next-level hater, I can't even imagine, my man is the Count of Monte Posters

you see your pets twitching their little limbs in their sleep and say to your partner "look, it is running through a field in its sleep", you are wrong: your pet is in a casino: throwing dice, playing slots and video poker, walking on two legs and betting large on a blackjack table

Ma hot take c'est qu'ils n'auraient pas dû changer le parcours du défilé du 14 juillet à cause des JO mais faire avancer les chars sur le tracé habituel et broyer les équipements olympiques juste avant les jeux, démontrant ainsi la puissance et la détermination de l'armée française.

I can't find this post but there was an anecdote about a conversation that happened at one AAA studio: the boss says "what's the quickest way you can make me care about accessibility" and the employee replies "I can break your hands"

Au Royaume-Uni, une libraire a critiqué sur Twitter le livre d'une autrice transphobe, et été virée pour ça. Les milieux anti-trans expliquent que d'une façon ou d'une autre, c'est l'autrice qui est victime d'atteinte à la liberté d'expression.

A month or so ago I had a dream where I was either playing or in a video game (it was hard to tell) and part of the game was finding these hidden totems called Wishboons. I don’t know what they did but I haven’t stopped thinking about them since so I made one

My god, the Finns are right, sauna DOES cure everything!
This is so cool! Frog & amphibian have been dessimated by the disease chytridiomycosis, caused by a fungal pathogen. Researchers have realised that the fungi is heat intolerant so little brick saunas for frogs can help kill the fungi! Recovered frogs more resistant to further infxn 🧪
These frog 'saunas’ could help endangered species fight off a deadly funguswww.nature.com How a hot resting spot can help frogs survive chytridiomycosis infection, and the decades-long hunt for dark matter in black holes. Hear the biggest stories from the world of science | 3 July 2024

is this a system where you technically have every skill, albeit at extremely low levels, or a system where it takes effort for the skill to even show up on the character sheet
Sure. Why the hell not. What’s the worst that could happen?
