Snailfishes live in a variety of ocean habitats—from shallow tide pools to deep-sea trenches. The newly described bumpy snailfish (Careproctus colliculi), observed in the depths of Monterey Canyon nearly 3,300 meters (10,800 feet) underwater, has a distinctive pink color and a bumpy texture.

This ad about how great Google Gemini is ends by telling us how Ted, the protagonist and a big James Blunt fan, “found something he didn’t even know he was looking for” at a James Blunt concert where James Blunt is playing not “High” by James Blunt but “She’s So High” by Tal Bachman.

Haha. A little bit! I thought they could be together and slay demons together. Rumi (purple hair’s name?) also didn’t seem all that broken up that he died. She was back to bee-bopping’ a hot minute later! But they saved (preserved? Made?) the Honmoon, so I guess all’s well that ends well.
