Light is affected by gravity. That's why you can't see black holes.

On average, the temperature decreases by 2°C for every 1000 feet (thermal gradient) as one ascends.

There are amphibious centipedes that exist underwater and can just chill out there, I think it's pretty awesome!

I'm never going near a body of water ever again. Lol.

That is interesting though. I didn't know those existed. I guess they can store a lot of oxygen? Or can just get it from the water?

Some songbirds rehearse songs silently by activating the 'song control' region of the brain as they sleep, without moving their syrinx.

This is a recently discovered new species of sea anemone. It has a symbiotic relationship with hermit crabs. The anemone attaches to the shell and grows with the crab. The crab no longer has to abandon the shell to get a larger one. I think they're cute.

Honestly, there's only a handful of such amphibious centipedes. There's little known (to my knowledge of course) about these species because of how recent they are in discovery!! :D

If you check the woke games detected list you'll find some games marked for woke with pretty funny and stupid reasons.

For example, one game was marked as woke because it preached mental health and self acceptance.

Disco Elysium is marked for woke due to something along the lines of "commenting on communism, unclear anti or pro."

Obviously all games with any LGBT is on the list, aside from LGBT other reasons to mark games as woke include "pro-climate action, anti-colonialism, anti-patriarchy, mental disorders, games that are too lazy to have a script that tracks the gender of the player and default to them/them" Amongst other stupid reasons.

Bones in your fingers can be split up into 3 main parts: The proximal bone (attached to the metacarpal bone protruding out of your wrist), the middle bone (attached to proximal), and the distal bone (attached to middle).

This is consistent for all fingers... Except the thumb.
For some reason, in the thumb, evolution decided to stretch out the proximal and the distal bones, and then shrink the middle bone down as much as possible. As a result, we have a very tiny 'sesamoid bone' in our thumbs.
Why not just take it out altogether? Well, evolution is like an eccentric, hoarding grandfather who loves to keep the most useless bullshit around 'just incase he might need it later'.
