Friday Links!

I used to see these twice a year: Things that exist but probably shouldn't: Drive-thru daiquiri stands

This is certainly an interesting read: The dangers of sneezing—from ejected bowels to torn windpipes

We could use more happiness right now: This sausage dog slapping its tail to the beat of "Louisiana Saturday Night" is one of the best videos on the internet

From Wally, and it's a fascinating read: The Daily Heller: When Competency Is Going, Going, Gone. Just wait for the horror parodies: Which Characters are Next to Enter the Public Domain?

From C. Lee, and it's an excellent read: How AI Revolutionized Protein Science, but Didn’t End It. This is one of the first of many similar stories: AI took their jobs. Now they get paid to make it sound human. Here's a repost of the story I wrote about earlier this week: Toys “R” Us riles critics with “first-ever” AI-generated commercial using Sora. Not surprising: Japan gov't says health impact of PFAS chemicals "undeniable". This is alarming: Forever chemicals are poisoning your insurance. The news is not encouraging this week: The Supreme Court rules that state officials can engage in a little corruption, as a treat. I've only watched season one so far and it was already obvious: The whole time? The Boys has been making fun of Trumpers the whole time?! This is an excellent read: Einstein and his peers were 'irrationally resistant' to black holes. This illustrated story explores why. This is terrific: ‘The Crime of the Century,’ a Century LaterIs having a pet good for you? The fuzzy science of pet ownership
