Speaking as a former pool operator. Painting the bottom of a shallow pool exposed to direct sunlight that's surrounded by trees dark blue simply creates the perfect conditions for algae to bloom lmao.
This is the perfect exemplar for Trumps presidency.

The swamp is no longer a metaphor.
Community note
This image is nearly 14 years old, extracted from a news piece filmed in 2012 by NBC, documenting algae issues the Reflecting Pool was facing at that time.

It really is such a shame this regeneration sequence shits its pants in the final ten seconds because “It has been an absolute joy” would’ve been such a wonderful line for Doctor Who as we currently know it to go out on.

From Early Miocene North America, "great weasel" would have resembled a ferret while being the size of a jaguar. Its skull, as wide as a black bear's, allowed it to be a powerful bone crusher while retaining a large gape

Even a sabercat is creeped out by a 1 m long hellgrammite in Miocene Spain :B Inspired by a 2023 paper that describes "Aenigmatipodus", a mysterious ichnofossil apparently left by a huge arthropod. The idea of it being a hellgrammite is mine- the press went with "giant cockroach"

That's a great observation.
The right's screaming outrage about DEI is not about qualifications, it's really all about racism

Evolução convergente é a coisa mais linda do mundo. Existe um animal na África chamado aardvark, parente distante de elefantes e peixes-boi, que adquiriu de forma independente características físicas similares a tatus e tamanduás

People are trying to gaslight you into thinking that little Hoovervilles full of shotgun shacks are in fact Totally Fine and not a symptom of the US being a backwater banana republic.
