Another one I though of is QRP your favourite album covers from an artistic point of view, I did a review of Scott 3 this evening and that one owns, as do these. Also 1000 Hurts has the best drum sound ever recorded.

Another interesting fish from the Kem Kem - Bawitius! This is a 3m-long bichir, a group of fish I wasn't familiar with until starting this piece. Today, members of this group don't get more than a meter in length, and are apparently popular in aquariums!

quick story: author I know hired a graphic designer. Graphic designer used AI assets. Author did not want this. Author realized close deadline that thing was AI. Author needed something not AI to replace this, and didn't have time so close to deadline to get a custom work or vet stuff. What do now?
