This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

I never knew Squirrel Kings were a thing, they appear to mostly happen to siblings

wouldn’t have expected this to be a wiki entry but now I’m curious what other animals could he burdened by this circumstance

I wonder if it's the same from that page, on the 11th, in Bend, Oregon
