August 2025 Roundup

Below are things I’ve learned, remembered, or found interesting in the past month:

  1. Sam Kriss is in his zombie era.

  2. Only one dinosaur fossil has ever been found in Washington state. The state was mostly underwater, and it probably came over from California.

  3. T-Rex Races.

  4. Secret tunnel!

  5. The US government faked vampire attacks in the Philippines in the 1950s. It didn’t work!

  6. Planet, planet, PLANET!

  7. Lenses, not boxes.

  8. Bluesky thread from a lawyer about why digital platforms gobble up all your image rights.

  9. Younger Japanese people talk about time in a slightly different way than previous generations. Slipped in is a neat tidbit: instead of saying that a store closes at 1 am on Tuesday, it’ll say that it’s open until 25:00 on Monday.

  10. Church in Sweden took a little journey across town, organ, paintings, and all.

  11. Questions to ask if you’re stuck drawing a comic.

  12. New dinosaur! The oldest Ankylosaur ever found, and it’s a spiky one!
