Are capybaras docile to humans?

Humans, alligators, probably tornadoes as well.

it doesn't seem to be that uncommon to have some ancestry that was part of royalty: https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-59041055

Many of us will have shared ancestors. And if someone has ancestry in Britain going back to the Middle Ages, Prof King says it's actually more likely than not they will be related to a branch of one of the royals.

He was also depicted as the villain in the Robin Hood tales.

Feels about right.

    I think you didn’t realize this was a joke but that is my fault. I’m sorry…

    This is absolutely amazing. Lucky draw for him to get the wood perfectly on the face too or did he plan that? Either way, it's amazing haha

    I've never seen it in person, but I think it's probably not real wood.

    I don't remember if I saw this one in person or not, but the Morton rotates through large, nature-inspired sculptures like this every few years. And you're right, a lot of them will include natural materials but they are generally metal or concrete shells over a metal frame.

    Here's their current installation: https://mortonarb.org/explore/activities/exhibitions/of-the-earth/

    If you allow some language imperfections as the author's first language most likely isn't English, the RC boat can also be considered a "remote operated vehicle" 😉

    That was an interesting read and a not too deep rabbit hole to go down. Thanks!

    A clearer picture, for those interested:

    From the source:

    Titan is the only object other than Earth where liquid hydrocarbon lakes and seas have actually been found (by Cassini) in its polar regions – in abundance in the north polar region and at least one of approximately 20,000 km2, called Ontario Lacus, on its south pole. Just recently, there have also been long-standing methane lakes, or puddles, in Titan’s “tropics” discovered.

    These are not photographs I think? It's computer generated.

    It looks far less habitable up close lol.

    L3mmyW1nks ,

    With its liquids (both surface and subsurface) and robust nitrogen atmosphere, Titan's methane cycle bears a striking similarity to Earth's water cycle, albeit at the much lower temperature of about 94 K (−179 °C; −290 °F).

    That's way too cold in my opinion!

    Traffic is so light, rush hour is probably 10 cars at the same stop light.

    Do you think that is air pollution or atmospheric haze after a storm or something?

    Its pretty normal around China's industry. And then the wind blows it all over the place. It sort of comes and goes depending on the wind and direction unless its local
