Water Hyacinths Threaten Jamshedpur’s Rivers, Prompt Community Action

Early invasion of water hyacinths in Jamshedpur’s Subarnarekha and Kharkai rivers sparks swift response from residents, officials, and corporations. The premature emergence of water hyacinths in Jamshedpur’s rivers has led to collaborative efforts to combat the invasive species and address underlying pollution issues. JAMSHEDPUR – Water hyacinths have appeared earlier than usual in the…

Currently thinking of omegaverse epic Au where Omega Odysseus is constantly fighting off his alpha suitors. My thought process is Penelope's a beta and it's common for omega kings to take a second spouse that can...well you get the picture. Anyway one day he's just trying to enjoy himself at the beach (skinny dipping in the tides) when a few of the suitors pull up like "Heeeeeeey~". So Odysseus finally snaps and says something along the lines of "The only alpha who could be worthy of an omega such as myself would be Poseidon!"

"Oh really~?"

Thunder rumbles above them, they all look up, and there sits Zeus on his throne of women shaped clouds (did I watch Neil Illustrators God Games animatic earlier, maybe). Looking smug and putting on his best bedroom eyes,

"What about Zeus, king of the gods~?"

Odysseus considers it for like 0.5 seconds, before swallowing nervously and essentially saying "I said what I said". Zeus is completely taken aback, absolutely dumbstruck as Poseidon finally busts from the sea, grabs Odysseus by the hips and basically goes "HA! Now fuck off jackass he's mine!"

Nanoplastics threaten plants' ability to clean up industrial waste

You can listen to this page as an audio file. There’s a lot of research on constructing artificial wetlands to clean up industrial waste. Now a new study published in the Journal of Hazardous Materials conducted by Huawei Jia and colleagues in China has revealed that the aquatic plant Pontederia crassipes, (also known as Eichhornia crassipes or Water Hyacinth), often used to remove contaminants…

The iconic opening sequence, an all-time favourite!

A minute in and we're given our first hit of the Bridgerton family, with all the amazing sibling vibes.

Gregory, channeling his best Captain America. Does that make Hyacinth "Falcon"?

Francesca getting some of her only lines out, early in the season. I forgot she existed, the first time I watched. Poor Frannie.

This volley between Colin and Benedict is so fun. It also hints at how Colin and Daphne are close, which we get in the books but unfortunately not much more than this in the show. I guess there's only so much you can fit in!

And of course, the fabulous Eloise! It's no wonder she was my favourite character in season 1. Hilarious moment and what a way to start the first season!
