  2. I think it's worthwhile to post a few more pictures from Kaikōura Whale Watch. #whales #BirdsNZ

  3. 🐳🐳 Just for Sunday fun, watch these humpback whales have a whale of a time…

    (From YouTube “Chamberlin Nature” channel, off the coast of Pacifica (just south of SF)

  4. Whales belong in the ocean, not in tanks. 🐋💔

    They deserve the freedom to swim, explore, and live as they should - not a lifetime confined for our entertainment. 🌊

  5. Kalle Haatasen perjantaisessa jaksossa pohdintaa kielestä ja ajattelusta, vieraana Janne Saarikivi, areena.yle.fi/1-78240921

    Korruptoiko jo kirjoitettu kieli ajattelua ja tietämistä, vai demokratisoisiko pikemmin? Entä muu tallentaminen ja toistaminen? Mikä rooli on dialogilla, entä retoriikalla todellisuuskuvamme muodostumisessa? Kielijärjestelmien erot? Miksi kirjoitus ja abstrakti raha syntyivät tavallaan samaan aikaan? Lukutaito sosiaalisena protestina! Viekö tekoäly senkin?

    Lopussa väitetään, että suomen kielellä voi yhä ajatella, jopa tieteessä, eikä murteitakaan parane sulkea pois. Tolkkua ylikansallisuuden palvontaan kansainvälisyyden varjolla! Viitsimisen filosofia mainittiin yhtenä suomeen erinomaisesti sopivana uutena teemana.

  6. Came across a lovely Minke whale today out in the Moray Firth - the coastal town of Nairn away in the distance. #Nature #Whales

  7. A spectacular new museum dedicated to whales is opening in Europe next year.
    Whale blood in jars, gothic-arch rib bones and a soundscape room that vibrates in your chest? Sounds like a whale of a time

  9. Unnatural Phenomena Hypothesis One

    Just recently we had all those elephants that died, and still no idea why? Oh lots of theories but not one solid fact I can find. Then the Sardines of our coast here. Again a lot of speculation, and I see the … people that play the virus fear game are already onto this one! Bullshit Trust the Science coming up!

    While this is going on I have been looking up all the poisons that are used for just insect “control” so far. How no matter what the Trust the Science says on the labels, what we use DOES NOT break down. The bastards actually write that in the fine print, same as they do on your medicine drugs.

    Before we go even one bloody step further better put in this bit of info, as I have one of them thingies.

    A hypothesis is a proposed, testable explanation for a phenomenon or a specific prediction about the relationship between two or more variables. It serves as a starting point for further investigation or scientific experiments.

    One gets “ Cold Case “ files on say murder. One day some ou admits to a few and that cleans up the docents a bit. The Biological Disaster Docket id FULL of unexplained things, full. The whales that beach is the biggest example, as whales are… big.

    My hypothesis is just off the top of my head at the moment, but I think it IS a starting point for the further investigation.

    Neurotoxins are to blame for some of these phenomena!

    Most of the poisons for insects have neurotoxic poison in them. As I am already proving that these are in every single Biosphere, and still active this could explain a bit, the starting point. Neurotoxin I read about and kept up with my whole life. It is the venom that could kill me, not hurt, kill. And relatively quickly. Also I felt a bit of the effects of a bit of it in me! That Stiletto Snake has a bit in it. I had not had a drink or taken ANY mild altering substance for a few years at the time I was bitten. Oh boy, the pain was bad but the wonky drunk feeling was cool! Later that night the nightmares were not so cool ha ha.

    Why do I tell you this? Because all living things on this planet right now are exposed to a lot of this type of toxin. Therefore back to the whales. I believe that the neurotoxins are making them drunk, losing their sense of bearing, crashing into land. In Visser and Chapman’s book,(old book) Snake and Snake Bite, one case history is of a chap bitten by a Black Mamba. He gets to hospital, gets treated and becomes a jolly fellow, like a happy drunk, doc goes home as patient seems fine. Patient died a little while after. He was high on venom. You may have seen there is a fad in India where men get bitten by Cobras to get high? Well, a drunk whale…. Could be as simple an explanation as that.

    Again, I refer to The Butterfly Effect. How much poison is in say, those Krill?Need a person that can look into this stuff for me….

  10. 💁🏻‍♀️ TIL: 🐋🌀 Researchers used X-ray CT and #microscopy to map a #narwhal tusk in #3D.

    They found a second, inner spiral running opposite the outer one, a #doublehelix that keeps the #tusk stiff yet flexible, letting it bend without cracking. They hope the tusk’s growth layers record changing #ocean conditions over the #animal’s long life.
