Otter at a local zoo is going viral after showing zookeepers her favorite marble collection.
At a local zoo, staff noticed one otter had a habit that was different from the rest.
Otters are known for using rocks to crack open shellfish, and some even keep their favorite stones because they work better than others. But this otter wasn’t saving rocks. She was saving marbles.
Zookeepers first noticed her hiding one shiny marble in the corner of her enclosure. Then another appeared. Then another.
Soon, staff realized she wasn’t just collecting them by accident. She was carefully keeping each one like it meant something.
The zookeepers thought it was so sweet that one by one, staff members started bringing her a different marble as a gift. Every time she received one, she would take it gently, inspect it, and add it to her little collection.
Now, whenever certain keepers visit, she gathers the marbles together as if she’s showing them off. Visitors say it looks like she knows exactly which marble came from which person.

"The right and the left share another important assumption: that academic radicalism is genuinely subversive. Kimball takes the radical claims of the academic left at face value. He does not object to the tenured radicals because they are more interested in tenure than in radicalism. He objects to them because, in his view, they use the security of their academic positions to attack the foundations of social order. Now, instead of attempting to destroy our educational institutions physically, they are subverting them from within. No doubt, they would like to think so; but their activities do not seriously threaten corporate control of the universities. And, it is corporate control—not academic radicalism—that has corrupted our higher education."

On this day in 1687, Newton’s Principia was published, arguably the most important science book ever printed.
The Royal Society couldn’t fund the printing since they’d spent their entire budget on a book about fish. Edmond Halley paid for the Principia out of his own pocket.
Imagine spending your entire life studying synchronicities.
Then on the day you die, lightning strikes your favorite tree in your garden and splits it in half.
That's what happened to Carl Jung.
