Cats and the Laws of Physics

Re: Cats and the Laws of Physics
#12The discussion of cats’ contortions reminded me of Mark Rober’s endearing YT videos analyzing how squirrels managed his backyard mazes. IIRC, the first one takes a close look at how quickly squirrels lock in on their destination after being launched into the air. https://youtu.be/hFZFjoX2cGg https://youtu.be/DTvS9lvRxZ8
Smarter every day had a video on how cats conserve angular momentum.

Who does this? It's maddening.
Is it having to pay, or the hassle of having to set up payment that's maddening? If I knew clicking on a link to an article I believed was worth reading would cause my credit card to be charged a few cents, I honestly wouldn't be bothered at all. But I am bothered by the hassle of setting up an account (often with some significant minimum spend, or ongoing subscription you have to remember to cancel), filling in my details, worried about whether my payment details are being stored safely etc. etc.
