hi luckies, yuki here with fact 153. today i will be answering a question everyone in america has probably asked in the past month or so: why dont they just dig a canal or pipeline to circumvent the strait of hormuz?

well it turns out that the strait of hormuz being in iran's backyard isnt even really the issue. the problem is whether the oil routes and infrastructure are within striking distance of drones and jets and stuff. so if you dug a canal through oman/UAE iran would still just be able to attack the infrastructure anyway. in fact, there is a pipeline and this has already happened.

until next time

hi luckies. today's fact is about the seals i saw at the beach recently.

they live in colonies some of the year, but are also somewhat territorial. i saw many a seal galumph to proximity of another, just to see a slap fight ensue with a whole lot of "babababababa" and such. quite amusing

until next time
