I feel both so played and also so educated.
Like, this is blatant tomfoolery, sir, and somewhat insulting to fandom… But I also respect this position and will use it to disappoint my friends’ faith in me. So, thanks!
I have personally encountered at least one apparently sincere example of every single entry on this list.

Welcome to Theme Day: “Cool new animal science my journalist friend told me I should blog about” as chosen by my Patreon supporters! Next up is a bit of science that admittedly was not sent to me by this journalist friend, but I’m 99.9% sure if she’d seen it before I did it would have ended up in my inbox.
Basically, the largest species of hammerhead sharks (great hammerheads are the ones that can get up to 20 feet long) have figured out how to use less energy by swimming while rolled over onto their side to reduce drag. This was determined by sticking accellerometers and video cameras onto a number of sharks in the Bahamas and pretty much watching the weird stuff they did… like spend all of their time tilted 50 to 75 degrees to one side. They also switched which side they were tilted towards about every ten minutes.
I attached the link to the tweet where I first saw this study, because I think the GIF posted there is much easier to watch than the video embedded in the NewScience article announcing the discovery. This paper is open-access as well, so if you’re wanting to dig into the biomechanics of shark swimming, you can absolutely do that.

A stray dog getting a free grooming session from a group of monkeys – photographer unknown
We primates can`t help it; we gotta groom. Dogs know this. They`ve been exploiting us for millennia.
Looking at episode 11 again I think the most depressing part of an already extra sad episode is when Sakura is scared out of her mind at the 5 zombies approaching her and she just drops her weapon and is like “Why fight?” like this girl was ready to just get murdered someone give her a hug holy fuck
Honestly kind of scared to watch the new Zombieland Saga episode
This is either where it all ties together or all falls apart, you know?
Was good. Some people hated it, and that’s understandable. Its a lower key version of the black comedy of the show dragged out through the whole episode.
All the other girls freaked this woman out in unfortunate accidents and misunderstandings but Yugiri set this shit up
Girl has returned from being dead for centuries only to be wrapped up in an insane pop idol zombie scheme and she has committed her second life fully to the art of fucking with people
Opium can only get you so far.
I mean the whole modern world seems to be set up to fuck with her; it’s only proper to fuck them back.
