Summary from the video description:

"When it comes to NYC, the rat is the undisputed king of the urban jungle — and we made it that way! Find out why with host and evolutionary biologist Shane Campbell-Staton in this episode of Human Footprint.

Human Footprint is a show that delves into the impact of humans on the planet. Join Shane as he travels from farms to restaurants, from high-tech labs to street markets, and from forests to cities to uncover the consequences of our unique history. Are you ready to explore our past, present, and future as a species?"

From the description of the video above:

"September 29th, 2023, will be etched in New York City’s history as the day the skies opened with an unparalleled ferocity. The deluge was so intense that JFK Airport recorded its highest 24-hour rainfall since 1948, with an astonishing 8 inches pouring down.

Brooklyn faced nature’s fury head-on, as three hours of ceaseless rain equaled an entire month’s average downpour. Witness water roaring into basements, stranded vehicles, and impassable roads that brought the Big Apple to a standstill.

This video dives deep into the heart of the devastation, spotlighting the worst affected regions like Brooklyn and Long Island. From shattered rainfall records to streets that became rivers, experience the magnitude of NYC’s epic flood crisis."

City Limits takes a multimedia look at how food waste is repurposed at the Department of Sanitation’s 33-acre composting facility in the Fresh Kills section of Staten Island. The site is part of New York City’s effort to operate “the nation’s largest composting program” and limit the climate impact of its waste sector, which accounts for 4 percent of citywide emissions.

I edited the name of the post to better reflect the content of the video as the original video title is just “Don’t waste it”, the host talks about the stats relating to how many people in the modern world in first world countries are still counted as illiterate and how those stats made him reflect on how lucky he was in being encouraged to read and still does to this day. I like this video as a decent summation of what makes reading wonderful in and of itself.

Lots of graphic novels and manga, once done with that I have a nice gardening book to look forward to:

• Home after Dark by David Small

• Kuusama by Elisa Macellari

• The Climber by Shinichi Sakamoto

Small criticism, I think your first article on “The redditor’s guide to how Kbin works” is the one packed with the most useful information for any newbie migrating from reddit or any social media so it deserves a sticky or some kind of mechanism to make it the first thing that pops up imho. Otherwise, awesome work. I thought the Artemis app was still in exclusive beta so it’s good to hear it’s available on the app store now.

So a team of you just collectively stomping/T-bagging a random dinosaur Skeleton?

Download the offline version maps of wherever you plan to stay/travel to. You can do this via google maps or OSM maps, at the very least it’s helped me keep peace of mind when out and about.
