Sturgeon's law applies

TIL Mike Tyson has a line of edibles shaped like a human ear – yep, that ear

@revmem I was actually out of the country at the time, so less exposed to the coverage than if I'd been home. I reside on Oʻahu so there was no direct threat to us. Over time we became aware of the and scope of the disaster and its local impact... it was quite horrifying and heartbreaking.

In some ways it was reminiscent of 9-11, which also occured when we were out of the country. The experience was disconcertingly similar, though on a very different scale.

Name for the phobia that you will suffocate in a hostage situation with a duct taped mouth and nasal congestion?

Over on tiktok user @nomadicpancakes has observed a group of #bees that have learned to turn on the sensor on a water bottle filling station by walking over the target.

This is just the kind of thing bees are made to learn, they love targets and need to follow them when dealing with flowers all the time.

The interesting thing is that the bee who hits the target produces water for her sisters, herself less so. But these #eusocial girls seem to have that worked out!
