There’s a new robot Rubik’s Cube champ, we love bird art, and Hank talks about “the tragedy of prevention.”

Screenshot of a post from Hank: A tricky thing about modern society is that no one has any idea when they don't die.
Like, the number of lives saved by controlling air pollution in America is probably over 200,000 per year, but the number of people who think their life was saved by controlling air pollution is zero.

The @wereherenews.bsky.social newsletter is one of the few things on the internet currently keeping me sane. I highly recommend signing up for a weekly dose of good, curated internet, instead of only being fed by the algorithm overlords
