Screenshot of a phone setting highlighting the “learn from this app” invasion of privacy, courtesy of Siri, toggled on. The app is a password manager, which is concerning.

Welp. Apple snuck something dirty in our phones last night.

Settings > Apps > (pick an app) > Siri > Learn From this App

TOGGLE OFF.

You have to go through each app. My garage app, my BANKING APPS, others had that turned on automatically. 😡

Aww I’m so sorry. Losing furbabies is heartbreaking 💖

Mr Chalcoscirtus diminutus, being very small and a sweet lump with his little orange face 🧡

A triangle shaped sandstone rock sits on a rock shelf overlooking the deep blue ocean. It points up into a clear blue sky towards the moon, which seems tiny but is still visible.

The moon is always bigger in my eyes than it is in photos/reality. #Bicheno #Tasmania #moon

Merry Christmas! May you all be as excited with the season as my happy floof boy 😂

A cartoon by Michael Leunig. A person is holding a flower and looking at a lit candle on the ground. It is night and a crescent moon hangs in the purple grey sky. The poem is titled Requiem, and it reads: lives are sacred, theirs and ours, trees and creatures, birds and flowers, light a candle bright and small, requiem for one and all. Life is wondrous, so is death, glorious the final breath, let a flower be the prayer, life and death be everywhere.

Aw, go well Michael Leunig, your life made a difference to mine 🌻

A photo of a wild three-coloured European hamster in a frontal view - standing on its rear legs. The some trees and other vegetation in the background is lit by evening light. The point of view is very low - so the grass around the hamster is blurred and the viewer is on eye-level with the hamster - and it's looking right into the viewer's eyes.

I think it's still my favourite wild hamster photo 😊 - hope it can bring some good vibes.

small jumping spider, with very large principal eyes, perched on a small whitish granite pebble

it's that time of year in southern California when our local populations of #Habronattus ustulatus become active, perhaps lasting until mid-March.

on warm days they'll be perched on small pebbles in chaparral barrens or in mid-elevation sandy washes

here's a little female. she is 100% adorable

I do astronomy for a living, and images like this *still* take my breath away. What a beautiful universe we live in. Even in the midst of trouble, grief, & anything you might be struggling with (like we all are) - try to seek out the beauty. It helps ❤️ apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap24121... #FridayFeeling

Humans may not have survived without Neanderthals A new DNA analysis has shown that the arrival of modern humans from Africa was far from smooth.

Oi, everyone say "Thank you uncle Dave and auntie Deirdre Neanderthal".

Interbreeding with Neanderthals helped homo sapiens survive after they went extinct multiple times as Neanderthal DNA had some advantages.

A dark grey stormy sky above suburban houses. Swimming towards the light is a cloud shaped like a humpback whale. If you stretch your imagination there’s also a skydolphin.

Ok it may be the fact that my new computer screenshot is a video of a humpback whale, but really, doesn’t this look like a skywhale?

A water dragon lizard is eyeing you with suspicion as he guards a cherry tomato. He’s in a dappled patch of sun on a concrete driveway

Dragons and treasure 🤷🏻‍♀️
