🚨 Imagens sensíveis - Um trabalhador teve parte de um dedo amputado após ser atacado por um lagarto da espécie teiú no Horto Florestal de Rondonópolis, a 215 km de Cuiabá, nesta terça-feira (9).
Em imagens registradas por um colega de trabalho, é possível ver o momento em que o trabalhador se aproxima do réptil com uma garrafa, aparentemente para oferecer água ao animal. No entanto, o lagarto avança em direção à mão do homem e o morde.
Após o ataque, o trabalhador recebeu ajuda e foi encaminhado para uma Unidade de Pronto Atendimento (UPA) do município.
Devido à gravidade do ferimento, ele precisou passar por uma cirurgia no mesmo dia. Como consequência, parte de um dos dedos da mão foi amputada.

Thailand has one of the lowest total fertility rates (TFR) in the world. In 2025, the TFR was 0.87, and the preliminary numbers for the first months of 2026 are even lower. The rate is so low that deaths have exceeded births since 2021 and now run 34% higher than births.
Thailand’s fertility collapse has always fascinated me. With a flight to a Bank of Thailand conference in Bangkok ahead of me, I spent some time reviewing the data.
Thailand’s TFR fell below replacement in 1991. That is early. It means completed fertility has been below replacement for at least a full generation. In 1991, Thailand was neither rich nor well-educated. Even today, its income per capita (in PPP, the right measure here) is about Mexico’s level, around 28% of the U.S.
The standard theories for East Asian ultra-low fertility, such as a toxic educational arms race or extreme gender inequality, have little bite here. On the World Economic Forum’s Global Gender Gap Index 2025, Thailand scored 0.728 and ranked 66th. South Korea scored 0.687 (101st of 146), and Japan 0.666 (118th of 148, last in the G7).
I think Thailand is the clearest example of modernity without high income, and that combination is a recipe for demographic collapse.
To illustrate this point: if Thailand’s TFR remained at its current level for 200 years, the population would decline from 65.8 million in 2025 to 1.51 million in 2225. While this is a hypothetical scenario used to make the argument, not a forecast, it gives a sense of the magnitude of the population change involved unless TFR increases at some point. This is not about closing a few maternity wards or fixing Social Security, but about winding down an entire country.
Does anyone have a better theory? I don’t have enough information on Thai demographics, and I am happy to update my view.
Two caveats. First, I use Thailand’s official data from the National Statistical Office. The UN WPP data (and the databases built on it, such as the World Bank’s) are, as always, way off. Second, the official statistics may undercount births somewhat. Even if they do, the picture changes little.
@SidewaysShrink@RodDMartin@klaurson If the purpose of life is to produce offspring whose sole purpose is to produce their own offspring, what the fuck is the purpose of life?
Live. Be happy. Accept death.
Reproduction is part of life, not its purpose.
