Dear @elonmusk whenever @Starlink eventually releases a phone, I’m begging you to create a system that allows users to opt-out of phone numbers. They’re the dumbest thing still existence, and need to disappear. The security/privacy vulnerabilities they allow are incredibly stupid

Bats are inextricably linked to the spookiest holiday of the year, but these creepy creatures actually fulfill a vital role in our ecosystem 🦇 Don't miss a special presentation of "Dead By Dawn" tonight on Nat Geo WILD.

Beware of a smelly encounter! This long-limbed slender loris bathes in its own urine to trick its prey 👃 Don't miss a special presentation of "Dead by Dawn" Halloween night on Nat Geo WILD.

After this clip, Assange was forced into asylum. Today he is locked in a dungeon -- and kept incommunicado. Listen to this, then ask yourself why it was so important that he be silenced.

Julian Assange speaking in 2011: "The goal is to use Afghanistan to wash money out of the tax bases of the US and Europe through Afghanistan and back into the hands of a transnational security elite. The goal is an endless war, not a successful war" #Afghanistan

My man @devonmassyn showing off his wildlife cinematography skills. Chances are you've probably seen some of his work if you've ever watched @SharkWeek or @AnimalPlanet show.
I've never had time to cut a reel before, but finally had a gap to get one in the books. Please have a watch. Was great to go through the memories. If you need a feral wildlife cameraman or showrunner, you know who to call. youtu.be/b_iXnA2Ltqs via @YouTube

7. Gibson's Law: “For every PhD, there is an equal and opposite PhD.” In matters of law & policy, anyone can find a subject-matter expert who supports their view, because having a PhD doesn’t necessarily make someone right, it often just makes them more skilled at being wrong.

Not something you would see every day let alone any day. Very strange mushrooms deep in the Waitaanga forest. This is their real colour, and extremely bright. The blue one is on our New Zealand $50 dollar note and is called Entoloma hochstetteri. Such a strange site to see.

Even though there are differences in habitat and geography, all tapir calves, no matter the species, begin life looking a lot like brown-and-beige-striped watermelons. Why? This pattern and color combination serves as the perfect camouflage as they explore their forest home.
