I learned about a cheetah rescue in Africa where they also raised sheep dogs. Ranchers can have a free dog if they promise not to shoot cheetahs…

Someone posted this morning about those Italian goats that scale the dam looking for salty rocks. That was cool.

Met someone with one of the rarest conditions in the world recently, only three families in the world identified to have it living. Super interesting.

It’s called Chitiyat-Hall syndrome, it’s a panhypopituitarism which affects all bodily functions. Super rare.

There is a little prince themed cafe in luangprabang Laos that is maybe my favorite restaurant discovery this year so far.

When the Himalayan mountains lose the last of their glaciers, as they are on course to do in the next hundred or so years, the drinking water for an entire subcontinent of nearly two billion people disappears. All of these people will have to leave their homes if they’re lucky enough to be able to do so, or die of thirst. An entire civilization will be uprooted, with all its history, landmarks, holy places, and more left behind in what will eventually become a desert.
