Pandas are bears, Ursidae, while honey badgers are mustelids, Mustelidae. Both are of the same mammalian Order of Carnivora, but it's the same magnitude of difference that exists between hominids, Hominidae, and tarsiers, Tarsiidae, despite both being of the same mammalian Order of Primates.

At best you might be able to John Hammond giant pandas with one of the seven other species of bear but even then any offspring would very likely be sterile mules if they even managed to survive.

Part of the problem is that pandas are the kind of animal that generate donations which can then be put towards other less generally appealing animals that are also endangered. The general public like cute and fluffy animals. Wet and slimey ones less so. So pandas end of as the flagship species for conservation efforts.

So similar stupidity to when someone called a bunch of kids nazis because they were appeared to be skinheads and were appearing with a political enemy.

All of whom were in fact cancer patients.

seems games companies KNOW not to skimp out on the music for their games.

For all the memes about being a dead game for so long and drip feeding DLC skins and filler content Payday 2 and now 3 are very much like this. Not that I'm going to bother with 3 any time soon and I haven't played 2 in a long time now. But the music was incredible.

I was in biology class in my final year of high school. Wasn't until a few hours later I heard what had happened. Other events I had on that evening were understandably somber in discussion.

Brandon Sanderson is my ideal of a hardworking author who treats his fans amazingly.

Fan: I had a rough day.

Sanderson: Here, read this book I wrote that will cheer you up.

Sanderson: Here's a sequel to the first book I sent.

Fan: Ho-

Sanderson: Here's a link to a 3 hour podcast I recorded in the last 2 minutes going into greater detail about all the new books.

Fan: That's not even possible, how do you record 3 hours from 2 minutes?

Sanderson: Shh, no questions, only books.

Only the ones lucky enough to die first.

Wow, that's a lot of nuclear power plants to build in only 5 years, right? Right?! 🤔
