Amazing Things!

All three of the New World species of Flying Skwirl glow bright pink under UV light. Every so often, someone comes up with these strange, fundamental facts that have been there the entire time, had anyone thought to look.

They don't say, but "UV flashlight" make me think of a long-wave UV "scorpion detector". I've got one, and occasionally walk around in the dark trying to see what glows. I've never run across anything nearly so cool, though.

The modern-day ubiquity of video cameras leads to some fascinating things being recorded. I'm sorry that the lady's boat got blown up (it looks like a costly one, moreover), but Geez Louise, what a thing to see.

Pelosi's caught without a mask, in a hair salon that was opened for her particular benefit, while everyone else has to do without. Now she's painting herself as the victim, since the hair stylist didn't help keep her secret.

Now you can get plant-based eggs. Only as a pre-scrambled melange so far, but that will change and improve with time, I'm sure.

Woohoo! Vaccine's coming!

We're ALL on ‘Candid Camera.’

Pelosi was a total prat. All the more so to complain that it was a setup. I don't care if it was. If you're in a position like hers, you bloody well keep to the rules. Doesn't matter if you're left, right, red, blue or aubergine.

Also, by a strange series of mental connections, your first comment there reminds me of glacier mice. I'd never heard of them before seeing a story in BBC Wildlife magazine this month. Now I can't get enough of the things.
