Today I learned rabbits can swim. Even better: their ears fold back into swim mode. I feel this information deserved to be shared

National News Outlets,
If you’re wondering why your emails are going unanswered it’s this type of reporting below.
▪️Let’s get our facts straight. There were not three separate incidents. There were two. In the second shark encounter, two people injured.
▪️The map used in this story is wildly inaccurate. The second incident happened EAST of the first near Seacrest. NOT Seascape, which is more than 25 miles away. Details matter, especially when criticizing the actions of local authorities.
▪️The flag system is in place down 26 miles of beach in Walton County. These incidents happened less than 90 minutes apart less than 4 miles apart. Are you suggesting that the very first responders who helped save these peoples lives could physically control a shark and that attempting to shut down 26 miles of beach could happen that quickly?
▪️We are GUESTS in the Gulf. We all must accept some amount of risk when entering the water. That DOES NOT take away from these two ladies whose lives are changed forever. But, looking for someone to blame is NOT the answer.
Florida beach hotspot closed after multiple shark attacks. The decision follows three shark-related injuries in Gulf Coast waters. ABC's @ReenaRoy tells us what you need to know.

It would not surprise me if Punxsutawney Phil announced six more weeks of January.

FUNGUS IN SPACE!!! 🍄🚀
Equal parts cosmic horror and nature being metal, let's talk about the lichen that grew on the OUTSIDE of the International Space Station!
Get your tea and curl up, because I PROMISE you wanna hear about these fungal cosmonauts 🧑🚀

"Is the library open today?"
"Yes."
"You don't close for Columbus Day?"
"We do not."
"I think it would be appropriate to do something to honor Christopher Columbus."
"You could announce that you're going to come to the library but then accidentally go somewhere else instead."

So very true
Have you ever thought about this?
In 100 years like in 2123 we will all be buried with our relatives and friends.
Strangers will live in our homes we fought so hard to build, and they will own everything we have today. All our possessions will be unknown and unborn, including the car we spent a fortune on, and will probably be scrap, preferably in the hands of an unknown collector.
Our descendants will hardly or hardly know who we were, nor will they remember us. How many of us know our grandfather's father?
After we die, we will be remembered for a few more years, then we are just a portrait on someone's bookshelf, and a few years later our history, photos and deeds disappear in history's oblivion. We won't even be memories.
If we paused one day to analyse these questions, perhaps we would understand how ignorant and weak the dream to achieve it all was.
If we could only think about this, surely our approaches, our thoughts would change, we would be different people.
Always having more, no time for what's really valuable in this life. I'd change all this to live and enjoy the walks I've never taken, these hugs I didn't give, these kisses for our children and our loved ones, these jokes we didn't have time for. Those would certainly be the most beautiful moments to remember, after all they would fill our lives with joy.
And some of us waste it day after day with greed, selfishness and intolerance.
Every minute of life is priceless and will never be repeated, so take time to enjoy, be grateful for, and celebrate your existence.

Last year, a coworker randomly asked me to hand-deliver an antique violin across the country. I said yes, because why not. I had no idea what I was getting into, and now I need your help. A 🧵

Hmmm. I just had a bizarre experience, involving a global news organisation and a trillion dollar corporation. (I got caught in the middle, so... owch.)
It’s not the sort of experience the people involved usually talk about in public… so I think I’ll talk about it in public.
