Love this - it reminds me of reading about a director - and alas I forget who it was - who fastidiously scripted background actors’ conversations which would never actually be heard.

Switch that up to ‘the nineteen hundreds” for added impact
I'be started using "Look, it was the *nineties*!" to justify every bad decision I've ever made or questionable opinion I've ever held. It works surprisingly well.

Happy Thursday. 'Mon the whales.
Australia's humpback whales are doing so well that their population is expected to reach carrying capacity and plateau in the near future--they have not just reached but exceeded pre-whaling numbers. For this to happen with such a long-lived, slow-reproducing species is near miraculous. #goodnews
These whales were hunted to 150 individuals. Now there are 50,000 of them
Once hunted almost to extinction, the population of humpback whales currently migrating down Australia's east coast has bounced back and is now greater than before whaling.

Out of curiosity, I asked Gemini to reformat tabular content into paragraphs.
Not a task that requires context or interpretation - just donkey work. It fully started making up content that was nowhere in the table. This is the first and only time I've used the tool.
