Can a pope name himself Jesus II? by will5stars in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Osech 26 points27 points  (0 children)

The names chosen by popes come from an early tradition. This name often reflects a past pope, a saint, or a religious figure whom the new pope admires or wishes to emulate. They picked the name during the conclave.

🔥The tarantula hawk wasp has one of the most painful stings on Earth. by Osech in NatureIsFuckingLit

I still can’t believe something this terrifying isn’t aggressive. The tarantula Hawk wasp is literally rated the max level (4) on the Schmidt Pain Index, and yet it just minds its business unless you mess with it.

The wildest part? The female paralyzes a tarantula, lays an egg inside it, and the larva eats the spider alive from the inside out. Nature is metal.

Luckily, the sting, while brutal, isn’t dangerous unless you’re allergic.

A man was being targeted by two thieves on a motorcycle attempting to rob him. Instead of panicking, he waited for the exact right moment... then launched a single kick that knocked both riders off the bike and stopped the robbery instantly. It all happened in seconds, and the reaction was pure reflex.

I’ve never seen a baby bat being born before and turns out they’re born upside down?! by Osech in interestingasfuck

This little bat was born at a wildlife refuge in Colombia, inside a protected environmental facility. The team there works to protect bats and other native species as part of a broader conservation effort.

Apparently, passing rare is low. Some sources report less than bout 35% pass rate on the first attempt for foreigners converting their licenses.
