What the state can do to me — it can do to you.
Officials and activists are trying to make me an example — “Stand up for your beliefs, and this is what happens” — all because some government officials and free-speech opponents don’t like what I believe.You might think, “That’s too bad,” believing you’re immune to all this — that your beliefs will never be disfavored by those currently in power.

Officially extinct fish is alive and well, according to DNA analyses
The houting, a fish species that lived in North Sea estuaries and is officially extinct, turns out to be alive and well. Researchers from the University of Amsterdam and the Natural History Museum London extracted DNA from multiple houtings conserved in the museum, up to 250+ years old. Next they compared the DNA of these museum fish with DNA from various currently occurring sibling species. The biologists found hardly any genetic difference between houting and a species called European whitefish. Since this species is still common, houting therefore isn't extinct.
