Here's something you never asked about:

Shrikes are famous “butcher birds.” They lack strong talons, so they spear lizards, beetles, frogs or mice onto acacia thorns or barbed wire to tear them apart more easily, or to store them like a weird pantry...

Let’s break the feed with actual sincerity.

Tag someone. Tell them what they did that mattered. Be weird. Be specific. Be real.

If you get tagged? Pass it on.
You don’t need a reason. Just a heartbeat.

Mondays are weird. You know what’s weirder?
Telling people they matter, for real.

Tag someone. Tell them a thing they did that made your life better.
If you get tagged, pass it on!

No brands. No clout. Just connection.

You might have a third nipple.
Statistically, someone you know definitely does.
And no, they probably have no idea.

Turns out 1 in 18 people come with a bonus feature tucked somewhere and it’s way more commonthan you think.

One in 18 People Have a Third Nipple And Most Don’t Even Know It
Because sometimes evolution just shrugs and adds a bonus feature.

I used to run this thing on The Bird App, we’d tag people just to genuinely compliment them. No brand deals. No metrics. Just joy.

Let’s bring that energy here.

Tag someone. Tell them something real and kind.
If you get tagged? Keep the train rolling.

Kindness is punk.

A new study is showing that dolphins listen with their... teeth?

As if they didn't have enough superpowers already 🙃

I love learning about the obscure... The things that make you smarter in things that don't really matter but reduce the noise that comes from the things that do.

I have condensed my learnings into a 3 - 5 minute daily newsletter that you can enjoy with your coffee.

If you see this post, tag someone and just hype them up.

We all need a bit of unsolicited celebration and praise 🥳

My brain whenever I see a hyena:

"Surely I could just pet it this one time though?"

Lil dude stopped me and asked if I wouldn't mind taking a new profile picture for his LinkedIn account.

Working in this economic climate is tough, especially for our little furry friends, so we should always assist where we can!

I was just trying to tell this boomslang how confusing it is that he was in a bush instead of a tree but he didn't want that sass...

In our continued effort to save the bees and stuff, has anyone asked these guys if they're happy to eat anything else? I feel like we should ask them that...

Someone said this was a Fish Eagle but surely we can't call it that when it's caught a branch instead?

Apparently waterbucks don't have any "spare water on them".
They also don't have a sense of humour...
