IN TODAYS FISH NEWS
a breed of goldfish, so rare they were thought to be an urban legend by some, was found by u/heavypickle99 on reddit just a day ago.
a pair, lovingly named "Tater Tot" and "Chicken Nugget" because of their body shape, were found in a pond and initially thought to be a birth defect or healed injury, only to blow the minds of everyone else in the subcommunity
i gotta say folks, as far as lost media goes it'll be hard to top a find like this!
I’m having a meltdown. When I was 9 years old I read an article in a magazine called Backyard Adventures about how this antelope, the saiga, was on the verge of extinction. I enlisted the help of my best friend and launched a fundraising campaign called Save the Saigas. We sold lemonade, had bake sales, sold belongings, yelled at strangers as they passed in their cars. Our parents were able to match the money we made. Our school helped. It wasn’t much, it didn’t save them, but it helped the organization at least a little bit.
Y’all. The saigas have been saved. A little piece of my passionate child heart that has seemed hopelessly lost and endlessly disappointed for a long time feels so soothed. Maybe it’s not all hopeless. Maybe our efforts aren’t a complete waste. Maybe we keep trying and actually hope for the best.
