Darwin
I've been working from home and I have a new friend... a robin that insists on attacking our kitchen windows. He/she may be building a nest somewhere around the house, but he spends a lot of time flying into the windows. I've named him Darwin.

Snake
Indiana Jones and I do not like this.
An anaconda measuring more than 50 FEET (15m) was registered in the Xingu River, Brazil. pic.twitter.com/BvvSqg97Dq— The Unexplained (@Unexplained) March 13, 2019

Nuance for Novelty
I was listening to the Freakonomics podcast on "grit" and this really struck a chord with me:
"But I will say this: it is human nature to get bored of things and to seek the novel. And I think that one of the skills that one must develop in life, if one cares not to be a dilettante, if it’s a goal of yours to become expert in something, one of the skills is to learn to substitute nuance for novelty."
