An octopus actually has 6 arms and 2 legs, not 8 legs⁠ ⁠ {Weekend Repost}⁠ Next time you meet an octopus and wonder about its limbs, remember that it does not have eight legs, neither does it have eight arms (or eight tentacles for that matter, as they are technically not those either).

It is also ambidextrous, not favouring any left or right arms, but it does prefer using its third arms from the front when it can.⁠ ⁠ Source (short url): factourism.com/source/octopus-arms⁠ ⁠ #factourism #facts #fact #factsdaily #dailyfacts #interestingfacts #instafacts #amazingfact #truefacts #worldfacts #coolfacts #allfacts #factoftheday #factsoflife #funfacts #didyouknow #illo #illustration #illustrators #vectorillustration #drawing #octopus #octopus? #octopusart #octopuslove #marinebiology #marinebiologyshots #marinebiologylife #animalfact #zoology

From 1945 to 1947, a rooster named Mike lived 18 months without a head  When a farmer in Colorado chopped the head of one of its chickens on 10 September 1945, the fowl stayed alive and continued walking around. He decided to keep him like that and brought him with him to the market. The bird made sensation, and quickly started to become a local celebrity. The farmers were getting many letters, and managed to make a little money from showing Mike around in shows across the country. The animal was fed and hydrated with a dropper, and ultimately died one day when they forgot the dropper at a show. As to how he survived: chicken have their brain quite far back in their head, part of it getting through the chop. His memory keep on today with a yearly “Mike the Headless Chicken Festival” in his hometown.

There are kosher sex toys made just for Jews⠀ ⠀ If most sex toys are kosher in themselves, their packaging and the websites and stores were they are sold are not, and it has all to do with the imagery and words used to promote them.

This is why Rabbi Natan Alexander in Jerusalem opened is own sex shop online: selling adult products in a modest and sober way, he can answer the demand of very religious Jewish couples, without compromising any religious duty.⠀ ⠀ Source: factourism.com/source/kosher-sextoys⠀ ⠀ #factourism #facts #fact #factsdaily #dailyfacts #interestingfacts #instafacts #amazingfact #truefacts #worldfacts #coolfacts #allfacts #factoftheday #factsoflife #funfacts #didyouknow #illo #illustration #illustrators #vectorillustration #drawing #humansofjudaism #kosherlife #vibrator #dildovibrator #dildo #jewishlife #jewishculture

The first computer mouse was made of wood⁣ ⁣ {Weekend Repost}⁣ If earlier pointing devices were developed, the first being considered as a computer mouse — and the first to be named “mouse” — was invented by engineer Douglas Engelbart while working in his Augmentation Research Center. Originally named “bug”, work on the mouse started in 1963 until the device was ready to be demonstrated in 1968. The mouse had wheels (instead of the trackball that became in use later) and was, indeed, made of wood.⁣ ⁣ Source (short url): factourism.com/source/mouse-wood⁣ ⁣⁣ #factourism #facts #fact #factsdaily #dailyfacts #interestingfacts #instafacts #amazingfact #truefacts #worldfacts #coolfacts #allfacts #factoftheday #factsoflife #funfacts #didyouknow #illo #illustration #illustrators #vectorillustration #drawing #computermouse #fancymouse #mousegaming #gamingmouse #invention #inventor #inventions #computerscience

Wine glasses are seven times larger than they used to be⁣ ⁣ The average wine glass from the 1700s was about 66ml, against 417ml in the 2000s. That is a finding of research conducted by scientists from the university of Cambridge. Comparing 411 glasses from the past 300 years found in museums, catalogues, and other sources, they found that their size got six to seven times larger during that time. The larger increase has been happening in the last few decades, leading to the question of what it can mean in terms of alcohol consumption.⁣ ⁣ Source: factourism.com/source/wine-glasses-size⁣ ⁣ #factourism #facts #fact #factsdaily #dailyfacts #interestingfacts #instafacts #amazingfact #truefacts #worldfacts #coolfacts #allfacts #factoftheday #factsoflife #funfacts #didyouknow #illo #illustration #illustrators #vectorillustration #drawing #wine? #winelovers? #winewinewine #wineglasses #wineglass #winehistory #historyinpictures #kitchenware #glassware
