Happy 2026! To start the year, here's a tree ring chiton, a 5cm ocean mollusk that sticks to rocks. Instead of having obvious eyes on a head, it's got 100s of tiny eyes embedded in the hard plates on its back, each with a rock crystal to focus light. Its top is one big eye spying on the world above

This is true and I was the only one on set excited about it (and playing the song on my phone to blank stares)
Just watched the new Knives Out and I think it's really important you know that the scene in the Seminary's Gym is filmed in the same place Rick Astley filmed the music video for Never Gonna Give You Up.
I saw the window tracery and immediately made my friends pause the film so I could tell them.

HSL:n jatkuvassa ssästölipussa korpeaa se ettei maksupäivä ole aina kuukauden sama päivä vaan se 30 päivää edellisestä. Väistämättä veloitus aina hiipii sellaiselle loppukuun päivälle kun ei olisi kauheasti ylimääräistä käytettäväksi.

This is a perfect example of how a historical question needs to be narrow rather than broad

If you're not already aware, look up what the Christian crusaders did when they reached Jerusalem in 1099 (the first crusade).
Far-right groups are co-opting the aesthetics of the Crusades for their own objectives, transforming an obsession with feudal justice into a campaign for a White Christian nation.
Why We Should All Be Worried About "Crusadercore"
This online trend equips young, White men with a historically bastardized visual lexicon — one that gives new credence and religious authority to far-right bigotry.

So how the Finnish #Defence Forces plan on employing the anti-personnel - or other - #mines now that #Finland quit the #Ottawa Convention?
A thread; the TL;DR is that *no minefields of any kind will be emplaced* before strategic warning of ominous Russian military buildup near Finland.

Yritän ainakin kerran kuukaudessa käydä syömässä melenkiintoisessa ravintolassa jossa en aikaisemmin ole poikennut. Joulukuulle valikoitui keväällä auennut Aperte, modernia fine diningia rennossa hengessä, Manskulla Oopperaa vastapäätä.

Of all the red herrings of the Trump regime, this is the reddest of red herrings and the herringiest.
It’ll take them a decade to figure out what these vessels could be, another decade to do detailed design. Cut steel 2045.
Trump is an unhealthy 79-year old with three years left in his term.

The more I think about this battleship the more I think it’s a shiny distraction to keep attention away from the LSM and the frigate, both of which can be built in the near term. Some of these weapons don’t exist yet except on paper. No ship ever built could power all of these.

to add to the Jake Paul schadenfreude, Andrew Tate also lost a fight to some reality TV influencer. most analysis of the fight I've read described his opponent as deeply untalented but Andrew lost anyway. Tate's endurance was awful and he was gassed after the first round.

It seems that we cannot get our voice heard in Finland, appealing to the relevant MPs through open letters or social media.
We thus recorded an appeal to the Foreign minister of Ukraine, Andrii Sybiha, to help us explain the urgency of the situation to his Finnish counterparts
