Reply to Research shows animals are key to restoring the world’s forests. The unique long-term data set revealed that animals, by carrying a wide variety of seeds into deforested areas, are key to the recovery of tree species richness and abundance to old-growth levels after only 40 to 70 years of regrowth. by Wagamaga
Oh hey! Guess what we deleted 70% of in the last 50 years....

I still really don't understand what "mindfulness" really even is.

Reply to Researchers have shown that individuals who are played a piano chord during sleep that was previously paired to a specialist form of nightmare therapy have happier dreams and fewer nightmares than those who didn't undergo previous pairing, showing that this approach can alter emotions in dreams. by rjmsci
I had a nightmare for the first time in a long time. It was me and my family in a posy apocalyptic world, searching for shelter. We found a well stocked home that looked safe. Then when we started living there, vampires showed up and chased us off. I often sleep with youtube going in the background so some of the audio may leak in and make me loopy. I can see this working but I find it hard to sleep to music. I find the voices of others to be soothing.

Reply to comment by mlqdscrvn in TIL that in 2005 burglars stole $71.6 million from a bank in Fortaleza, Brazil by setting up a fake landscaping company near the bank and digging a 256ft tunnel beneath two city blocks to the bank over 3 months. Neighbors noticed vanloads of soil removed daily but assumed it was business-related. by Lagavulin16_neat
