Measles also causes "immune amnesia," meaning it effectively wipes your immune system. Where measles spreads, other viruses soon follow.
Measles is a bellwether. Because it’s the most contagious vaccine-preventable disease, when vaccination rates drop, it’s the first to start spreading.
Now we’ve got mumps rolling up.
Expect more.
This is just the beginning of RFK Jr.’s successful infectious disease reintroduction plan.

There’s a theory bears have a sense of aesthetic enjoyment as they’ve been observed stopping to take in a view or a sunset and, for lack of a better term, hanging out
Franzi Schimmer captured this Grizzly bear in Brooks Falls, Alaska just floating along, tippy-tapping down the river, browsing the salmon.
Prior to hibernation, up to 40% of a bear's body mass is fat, which is less dense than water (~0.9 g/cm^2), so the murder-monster is also a floaty-boaty.

It was believed in medieval times that hedgehogs had spikes so they could roll over fruit to carry home to their children, which is not true but is a really cute idea

You're laughing? Bovino had to go to his second favorite bar, a hollow tree stump where the bartender is a mouse serving raspberry cordial inside cups made out of acorns, and you're laughing
This rules. Kick Bovino out of every fucking bar in the country.

Scientists put sharks in a tank with toys. They noticed that the sharks bite and push toys and deliberately swim in circles. But are they really playing?
Experts: "It's hard to say and research is ongoing."
