Gold clam invasion in NZ threatens drinking water for millions of people- brilliant article about the invasive gold clam and its impacts. Always makes me wonder if anyone eats them, from pest to profit— same with deer, pines, surely someone will be able to make money out of them?

So loss making OpenAI is now begging for US government money to finance its research based on unproven promises of riches to follow at some unspecified date. Is anyone else recalling renaissance alchemists persuading rich patrons to support them because they'd be turning lead into gold any day now?

Good luck (haha NOT) to Peter Theil but the Aotearoa survivors will crack his bunker open like a can when we want his kai
Reading about the survival bunkers owned by like every social media executive is so telling. They talk about individualism as a means to survival when that has never ever once in history worked. We survive as communities - exactly what they own and ignore
