A rare bottlenose dolphin with pinkish-white skin and reddish eyes, affectionately nicknamed “Pinky,” has resurfaced in Louisiana’s Calcasieu Lake. First sighted in 2007, Pinky’s unique color is a result of albinism—her translucent skin reveals blood vessels and pale pigment. Previously believed to be solitary, she was even spotted with a calf, suggesting a rare lineage. This stunning marine anomaly reminds us how extraordinary nature can be hiding in plain sight. Would you believe your eyes if you saw her?

More footage of Tesla's Optimus has just been released on X or Twitter. But the reception wasn't great. With all of Tesla leaning on Optimus' potential as a product, what could this mean for the company?

Stanford Medicine researchers uncovered that hyperactivity in a tiny brain structure, the reticular thalamic nucleus (RTN), underlies autism-like behaviors in mice. By using both an experimental epilepsy drug (Z944) and designer-neuron modulation, they successfully reversed symptoms ranging from seizures and sensory overload to social withdrawal and repetitive actions. The results — published in Science Advances — highlight a promising new therapeutic target that could reshape how we treat autism and related conditions. Would you support neural circuit–targeted treatments?
