Some enlightening news from Harper’s latest Findings: Depressed people tend to feel gray rather than blue, whereas people who are not depressed generally feel yellow. The saltmarsh sparrow was found to be the world’s most promiscuous bird. It was discovered that if a mouse is promiscuous, its spermatozoa will sometimes cooperate with one another in order to defeat those of other males. The universe was determined to be thirty times more entropic than previously thought. There was never any primordial soup. Neuroscientists engineered fruit flies with shorter attention spans; they then fed some of the flies Ritalin. Sick ants leave the nest, voluntarily, in order to die alone. Bees can remember human faces, but only if they are tricked into thinking that we are strange flowers.
