My hometown river is the mighty DuPage. Running through the heart of Chicago's western suburbs, I'd say its biggest claim to fame is that in the 70's it was lined with hippies, and according to Bob Odenkirk, it was the inspiration for the "living in a van down by the river" line.

Echolocation is insane. We just accept that creatures like bats can scream at things and effectively see in the dark?

Greenland is back in the news and I am yet again reminded that most Americans say, "Green Land," and not "Greenlund."

I knew it!
WH sources say Venezuela's opposition leader committed the "ultimate sin": She accepted the Nobel Peace prize.

“If she had turned it down and said, ‘I can’t accept it because it’s Donald Trump’s,’ she’d be the president of Venezuela today,” one said.

About 18 seconds into this news story the reporter says the police AI report writing software erroneously wrote that someone turned into a frog. Yet this is the headline they’re going with.

Fun fact: in "Hamnet," Paul Mescal does the crawl, a swimming style invented by Native Americans that Europeans didn't adopt for another 300 years after the movie takes place. Most people in the Old World swam the breast stroke.
