I think the non-official canon is Bikini Bottom is near Bikini Atoll, the site of nuclear weapons testing in the Pacific Ocean. Radiation created anthropomorphic sea creatures like SpongeBob. I like your idea of Mermaid man/ Barnacle action figures… maybe irradiated ones at that.

Biggest stock surge since October 2008 too, reeks of market shorting. Wish I was rich and morally bankrupt enough to profit off this.

In these trying times I am still chuckling hours after seeing this, thanks for the meme.

Per press release: Congressman Andy Ogles introduced a House Joint Resolution to amend the Constitution of the United States to allow a President to be elected for up to but no more than three terms. The language of the proposed amendment reads as follows:   ‘‘No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than three times, nor be elected to any additional term after being elected to two consecutive terms, and no person who has held the office of President, or acted as President, for more than two years of a term to which some other person was elected President shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice.’’*

I was talking to my brother in law about this. His position approximates this article. While I agree this may not be intentional spying (never proven in court ) on Apple’s part they at a minimum did not account for this huge engineering problem on the back end where Siri couldn’t decipher between key words and background noise. Maybe don’t push products that aren’t robust? Especially since this law suit started in 2019 when voice tech was still (still is) in an infancy.

Most of Moon, like samples collected from Apollo missions, is composed from an enriched magma source (called KREEP) derived from material formed in the Earth-proto-Moon impact, however this sample shows a geochemical composition related to volcanic eruptions not associated with KREEP

How long did this volcanism last on the moon?

Why is this magma source isolated to the far side of the moon?

Exciting to see the first analysis of these unique samples and their implications in the history of the Moon!

As a geologist I will retort that if Minecraft environments had eroding surfaces like real life does then that bedrock would also be visible at the surface. Outcrops are just areas that are experiencing erosion rates faster than areas that are overlayed with soil. That said, there are a cool Minecraft programs for geological processes that have been shown to be educational.

This is so profoundly sad for a country that once had so much. My Cuban ex-pat family decry the communist government role here but I can never forgive the US for their inhumanity in tacitly letting this disaster unfold and others in the Caribbean, but what else is new.

Season 3 was some of the most riveting television I have ever watched. I’m a bit of a sucker but I still really liked Season 4 despite its pacing, it was a victim of the writers strike.
