Isn't it weird that we have exactly five fingers and five toes on each hand and foot.
  • The wikipedia article Polydactyly in stem-tetrapods has some explanations on how we ended up with 5 fingers and toes.

    The gist of it is that tetrapods (four-limbed vertebrate animals) evolved from a fish similar to a lobe-finned fish that had 5 sets of bones in each of its fins that evolved into fingers and toes. Some tetrapods have subsequently lost digits but the basal state was five.

    There's a book, Your Inner Fish by Neil Shubin that's full of this kind of stuff. Highly recommend.

    The bigger ducklings are almost 2 months old and the smaller ones are a couple weeks younger.

    Maui wildfire death toll hits 67 as questions raised over warnings
  • From the Hawaii Emergency Management Agency website

    Hawaiʻi has the largest single integrated Outdoor Siren Warning System for Public Safety in the world. The all-hazard siren system can be used for a variety of both natural and human-caused events; including tsunamis, hurricanes, dam breaches, flooding, wildfires, volcanic eruptions, terrorist threats, hazardous material incidents, and more.

    They test them here every month too. Shameful they didn't sound them when needed the most.

  • Wasn't trying to suggest that, just thought it was funny that there's a pic of a cute topless chick and people are all interested in the scenery. But yeah, other pic I saw was from Oahu and this looks like somewhere in the Hawaii Kai to Makapu'u area to me, probably Sandy Beach cause the park and hills and trees match pretty well.

    Sandy Beach is where Obama went bodysurfing when he was President, dangerous as fuck, loads of spinal injuries there from people getting piledrived by the shorebreak. Really fun though.
