careful, you might start validating physicists. “Assume for the sake of simplicity that the bird is a sphere”
“Assume a spherical bird in a frictionless vacuum”
Can we assume that all vacuums are frictionless? Makes the math easier.
The runners on my vacuum are fucked so not in my case, no.
Makes cleaning harder, though.
Would you say it looks… angry?
ebird.org is everything I wanted from twitter and more!
Fuck I wanna hug that guy so hard.
Region-locked to all across Asia around 45°N ('stans, Mongolia) and in spots all over Europe, especially Poland.
Good luck taming one, though. Also, only males are “bearded”.
I need to use Stans for regional definitions way more often.
The canadian Lynx stans most of Canada sans their arctic islands , and Alaska.
I need to hear this on ZeFrank and CasualGeoraphic.
I don’t know if this is a misunderstanding or if you’re deliberately using an additional second meaning for comedic effect.
But @ChaoticNeutralCzech meant ‘stans’ as ‘central Asia’ because of Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Kirgisistan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Afghanistan and Pakistan.
Yeah the second meaning is also ‘Stan’. It got popularized five? years ago now when there was some superfan of a celebrity called Stan who knew everything about them. So if you’re super into something like Eminem or a KPop group, you’d say, I stan Taylor Swift.
So if an animal stans the Himalayas, that means they love it so much they live there.

ZeFrank is suddenly way more active than he used to be. I thought he’d quit YouTube but apparently he’s back now.
Given their range, I wonder if their bulkiness functions to reduce their surface area to volume ratio. Since small birds need to eat a shittone of food compared to their body weight.
Probably. Also, it likely helps that they are omnivorous, and they chonk up for the winter. Some also migrate relatively short distances (blue on map).
This bird looks like it came straight out of angry birds
Am I the only one thinking it looks like Dr robotnik?
I read this in John Oliver’s voice
Borb
Chorb
Mathematicians and physicists like this.
Nah, too much air
That can be neglected.
What a beautifully rotund creature
An actual Pokemon
Oh lawd he roun
Rotund.
This bird is in a black metal band
One time I was in a bird enclosure at a zoo and there was this Asian pigeon in there which looked like a short, fat peacock (but without the long tail). It was by far my favorite thing in there because of how squat and round it was.
