Following The Webmaster’s example from yesterday concerning Internet Phenomena You Might Want To Know About, there has been something of a controversy going on in the Marvel Universe of comics. An article (and video) at Nerdist explain it well. It is worth investigating, if you care.
Have a lovely weekend.

As you may recall, The Webmaster wrote a brief post on a bet that would be completely safe to accept.
Another one she did not mention is one that was (apparently) (surprisingly) common in your world a few years ago. There were apparently bets on whether or not the world was going to end in 2012.
That is, a bet pertaining to the world ending by (specific date) is a completely safe bet to take. If the world does not end, you can collect your winnings. If the world does end, they cannot collect their winnings.
Along those lines, it is also entirely safe to offer a bet about the world still existing by a specific date.
Have a lovely day.

I read a rather remarkable article about a drone that was taken down by… a spear.
This happened in Russia.
I recommend looking at the article, and then watching the video at the top of the article’s page.
I am glad the person who lost their drone shared the footage.

As a follow-up to yesterday’s post: There is an interview with the person behind the Brooding YA Hero Twitter Account. It is worth reading.
Enjoy.

I recently encountered a Twitter account that seems well worth following. Or at least, well worth spending time reading tweets of. It is a “Brooding YA (young adult) Hero” Twitter Account. Whoever is authoring the tweets is doing a masterful job of capturing the “Brooding Hero” tropes.
I hope you enjoy, and have a reasonable Monday.

This is a friendly reminder of an expression: “Every Day is a Gift.”
I understand that this sentiment may cause some undue angst. After all, not every day goes spectacularly well.
In light of this, I would like to remind you that simply because something is a gift, that does not necessarily imply that it is good. Ans an example, think about what cats have a tendency to give to people they love. From what I understand, it is often things like dead animals. With blood. And gunk. And other messy things. Most normal people would not find that to be an enjoyable thing.
Some days are like that. They may be a gift, but they are not always seem excellent.
And as a counter to that negativity, I would also like to remind you that even a dead mouse might be useful in the case of, for example, a zombie apocalypse. If you have a severe shortage of food, even a dead mouse might be useful.
On that “cheerful” thought, I wish you a fair Saturday.

In addition to trailers-for-trailers being a “thing”, “Book Trailers” also exist.
In fact, there are two of them for the upcoming “Trials of Apollo” series from Rick Riordan.
I am not entirely sure what to make of this.
Have a lovely Friday.

Apparently, there is an endangered species in your world, where the last two known specimen are going to be introduced to each other to try to increase the number in existence. Although that is admirable, that is not what stood out to me about that article.
Instead, what made an impact is the name of the species: “Mountain Chicken Frog.”
I admit to some definite confusion in multiple regards.
1) Why are they called that? Alas, there is no explanation in the article.
This leads to point 2) who thought that was a good name? How did somebody get away with naming an animal after a different type of animal, for no obvious reason? The closest I can think of is the Duck-billed platypus. There, however, the creature at least has an explanation written into its name. It is not a “duck platypus.” It is a duck-billed platypus. The Chicken Frog has no similarly obvious explanation.
Thus, once more, I am left entirely confused by your world.
Have a lovely Thursday.

I recently found out that not only is “Office Chair Racing” a thing in your world, but also it has expanded beyond its country of origin.
Happy Wednesday.

I am pleased to inform you that there has been an update concerning style-guides, and this particular realm. It is no longer necessary to capitalize the word “internet” when using the AP style-guide.
I hope you have a pleasant week.
