Not one healthy adult has ever been killed by a black widow bite, at least since we started keeping track. Poor things have the world's worst reputation for no reason
Greenland's ice is melting at a rate of 3 Olympic-sized swimming pools per second. Heard it on The Infinite Monkey Cage science podcast, no idea how accurate it is.
More practical information because I'm following up with GP recommendations after my last visit, but Magnesium glycinate followed by Magnesium citrate are most absorbed by the body. An ED nurse friend said if I were to look to buy vitamins and minerals, do not buy gummies, and get ones that are bioavailable to the body.
She specifically said that if I had gotten Magnesium oxide, she'd have told me to bin it. Strength ("high strength", etc. on the label) doesn't matter if the body can't absorb it.
So life pro tip: Research the vit/min you're looking for first, stay within the maximum recommended daily intake (online), and read the label. If it says "equivalent to (vit/min) ###.# mg", that's the amount your body can actually absorb, not the "Magnesium 1200g" on the front of the bottle.

That stuff would torment my dad with migraines. He took it out of his diet ages ago.

Fiber cables that can be made to withstand rugged conditions as well as are waterproof. And they can come ended with either a hook or a loop.

Some dolphins will find a shell and drop it near sea grass. Little fish will be curious and swim into the shell.
Dolphin grabs shell and brings it to the top of the water and the fish falls out. Dolphin eats it's snack.
It's part of the Netflix series: "Our Oceans" with Barack Obama.
