What on Earth is a 4.5 GPA? I've always seen it like 4.0 = A average, 3.0 = B average, etc.
I thought that 5.0 was a perfect 100% gpa. Maybe I'm just really dumb.

The directors cut of justice league will drop on hbo max in March. If it does well and I suspect it will rumor is Zack Synder will be asked to come back to direct man of steel 2 and two justice league sequels as well serve as a overseer to the dceu as a whole to weave it into a more interconnected story.

Some schools use a 5.0 scale, but the 4.0 scale is way more common.

The other day, I learned you can live stream penguins.
I use NS stats because the Pacific has a guidebook.
I’m Penguinya, a nation which is themed off of penguins, but we have humans too and aims to build a big military. It's just hard to answer issues correctly sometimes...

The Cincinnati zoo has decided their prized hippo Fiona will be the cover girl for their 2021 Calendar. She is probably of the most beautiful hippos I’ve ever seen.

A co-worker gave me a small bag of white chocolate + strawberry candies for Christmas. They were delicious. He also gave me a Santa hat and you bet your rear I'm gonna wear it in the office until Christmas is over. I even went shopping while wearing it.

I have finished my Christmas shopping and everything is mailed out! (With the exception of one gift that had the packaging damaged and will be delayed, but the recipient is aware and is cool with this).

I moved a couple months ago to a new apartment. This year was the first time I could put up a tree.

In short, I'm actually kinda feeling the holiday spirit.

Four rare white lion cubs born at a zoo in China will be meeting members of the public for the first time ever this weekend.

The extremely rare quadruplets, all males, are living at the Nantong Forest Wildlife Zoo in Nantong, located in China's Jiangsu province. They are absolutely adorable.
