This sounds like a spy comedy 🔽 One Russian cosmonaut got kicked off a SpaceX mission for snapping pics of secret SpaceX files… so naturally, they replaced him with another FSB agent pretending to be a cosmonaut. 🤪🤪🤪 united24media.com/latest-news/...

The new Ze Frank video reminded me about an adaptation found in some entomopathogenic nematodes - using both their own muscle power and static electricity, they can leap into the air and home in on their host, like an anti-insect surface-to-air missile #Invertebrate 🧪 news.emory.edu/features/202...

Yes, who is more likely to regard the sacrifice of people as abhorrent than those who follow a religion centered on celebrating the sacrifice of a person?

Another new concept from donny dummy “Only REVERSE MIGRATION can fully cure this situation,” Trump said. 😂😂😂

A rare sea slug who dares to make food from sunlight found in waters near a beach not too far from Halifax, Nova Scotia. Really interesting adaptation. If only we could do this trick…

Another awesome win from our SUPER 💙 Tuesday. 👏👏
