Unlike the embryos of other vertebrates, early snake embryos coil as they get longer, typically forming clockwise spirals. A new study offers an explanation for why embryonic snakes go through these contortions—and why they tend to curve in one direction. Learn more: scim.ag/4ygkAQk
Snake embryos often coil in one direction. Now, we may know why

BTS calls the Grammys out for being racist, basically. There is no need for an Asian pop category. BTS and other artists from around the world should be able to get a grammy without it being shuffled into a subcategory

Patti Smith met with the Pope. Whatever, fine. Hypocritical? Eh. They definitly spoke about religion and criticized it. Their most famous line, “Jesus died for somebody’s sins but not mine” is provocative. Patti Smith is a trailblazer who paved a path for the genderfluid and non-binary. (1)

It’s going to take a lot to heal the wounds inflicted on the world by the Grifter-in-Chief. He doesn’t know how to build bridges he only knows how to ruin things in order to extract the most profit. Impeach now before there’s either a world war or a revolution. He’s already killed thousands.

Georgia Aquarium to receive two beluga whales from closed Canadian theme park
Georgia Aquarium will be getting two beluga whales from a shuttered theme park in Canada. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration this week approved an emergency request to move 28 whales still living at Marineland of Canada to the U.S. The park in Niagara Falls, Ontario, closed in 2024 amid financial troubles and concerns over animal welfare. The Shedd Aquarium in Chicago and two Sea World parks — in Texas and California — will get the bulk of whales. Two other whales will be going to an aquarium in Spain.

You know his accountants are just riding the waves of insider information whenever there’s a cease fire and whenever bombing restarts. He’s a psychopath willing to do anything for money and notoriety. If that means killing brown people in the Middle East and South America.

I miss my dad, and didn’t realize how much he did to protect me as a kid. My childhood had a chaos factor from within and dad tried to be there. Could he have done more? Only if he were a different person. I miss you dad.

The world is so upsetting. I used to think I was terrified when Reagan was president and joking about bombing the Soviet Union. This occupying administration is setting the world on fire so he can fill his coffers in the last few years of his soulless greed-filled life.

Holy crap - I’m totally sucked in to the Korean show Glitch on Netflix. I have no idea why it’s listed as a comedy. It’s definitely more a sci-fi thriller. Aliens, mysteries, abduction, some terrifying stuff. I’m always down for a good alien story.

I’m glad that I was born when I was. I got to experience the things that I did and that I can be truthful to my younger friends at work while other people of my generation gaslight them & tell them that what we’re seeing now has happened before. This country is on the precipice.

I hope that when I’m at work that I get through to some people. I hope I inspire. I can only give passsion and facts. Facts that every living thing on Earth is our family. That intelligence and consciousness is not limited to humans and we have to do what we can because it’s our resposibility.

I’ll listen to anything at least once. (Okay, I haven’t listened to Metal Machine Music all the way through) I will listen to Pink Floyd’s Wish You Were Here, and I love Shine on You Crazy Diamond…but the sax solo kinda kills the mood at the end.

I can’t believe the Punisher special just made me cry. It was great, but as a HK film fan I would’ve like the fight scenes to have fewer cuts, more long takes. The best Marvel fight scene is still that hallway fight in the first Daredevil series that was on Netflix originally Season 1 episode 2.

Blue Cheer is the only band that sent my cat Ignatz running. He HATED Blue Cheer so I stopped playing it until he died. I always think of him when I play Blue Cheer. #BlueCheer I’ve never cared about a human as much as I cared about Ignatz.
