This picture has been making the rounds again, and is being misidentified again.
This is a GOOSEFISH.
This is NOT a tasselled wobbegong shark.
It’s a great pic. I get why people are very excited about it. But it’s as easy to give it the right name as the wrong one.

Danger Rug, Danger Rug, Nuthin's Stranger'n Danger Rug! 🦈🦈🦈
The Tasselled Wobbegong is a master of disguise that can eat a fish almost as big as itself in one gulp. It's classified as a shark, but when it lays on the sea floor it looks like a harmless rug if you manage to see it. But with powerful jaws and sharp teeth they are no fish to mess with.

Post hoc process mistakes by the board are not the issue or the story. The tribunal has held there was no problem with Dr Upton being in spaces she was entitled to be in. That’s the key. Peggie was not discriminated against.

This is one of those situations that will get used against trans men with the rhetoric "trans men are welcomed into women's spaces!" When if you read the fine print uh...no.
They view trans men as "biological women" and have been stated as rejecting trans people based on appearance-

An easy way to explain luddites:
Textile manufacturers brought in machines that could do in an hour what would have taken 12 hours by hand.
And then, tried to keep paying the now 12x more productive workers the same wages as before.
That's it, that was the problem luddites had. Not complex.

Also once you put it in its historical context, it becomes very obvious that the TNG theme was originally a cinematic theme
It has that very swoopy orchestral vibe that doesn't really come into TV scores until about a decade or two later
(A more boop-boop version does show up in 90s video games)

Frog knocked at Toad’s door. “Toad, wake up,” he cried. “Come out and see how wonderful the winter is!”
“I will not,” said Toad. “I am in my warm bed.”
“I will not,” said Toad. “I am in my warm bed.”

Currently driving myself mad working out how the geography of the Enterprise-Dfunctions, specifically the floor windows on the saucer sectio
Current assumption is that the artificial gravity does not have a consistent 'down', so they're skylights, and the turbolift is a nightmare

every trans person i see post about the OU suspension knows that the suspended target is trans & a grad student, & has an innate awareness that this is about purging trans employees. every cis person i see thinks the target is a rando professor & that this is about giving conservatives good grades

I am starting to wonder how much people's annoyance at young children being loud and, well, annoying in a mostly harmless small child way is actually them being triggered, because their parents yelled at them (or worse) for this behaviour
