I have a theory:

#wikipedia 's protected pages are mainly edited by twelve year olds on school assignments adding random singular #factoids that they scraped from #socialmedia.

Case in point:

🧵 3/6 About the IPCC 'The IPCC is the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change and is a body of the United Nations. The IPCC Reports are one of the definitive climate change science and policy knowledge sources – which map out pathways into a future where the harmful effects of climate are potentially mitigated.' https://www.ipcc.ch/ NB: The IPCC backs up its #factoids with science - as with image below. https://doi.org/10.1017/9781009325844.027 …

#WaPo #editorial by Catherine Rampell who is headed to #MSNBC to co-host the evening edition of "The Weekend" details #Drumpf's petty purges of accessible govt #data that " have been faster and more sweeping — picking off not just select #factoids but entire troves of public information." "deleting #taxpayer-funded data — information that Americans use to make sense of the world. In its absence, the president can paint the world as he pleases."

Did you know that alligators are environmentally aware & ride bikes... me neither

Did you know sometimes they'll give you a ride? I'd keep an eye on those teeth

A large-headed small bodied alligator wearing a white saddle is seated on a tiny bicycle with wrought iron training wheels. The gator is posed against the heavily decorated green wooden walls of an old building. Signs say things like "Wear Goggles when using this machine," "Do not throw at the Turtles," & "For use a Motor Fuel Only Contains Lead." Some of the signs are US license plates. Photo by Peachfront.

Betcha never knew this...
In 2002, 100,000 morphologically novel human clones were bred to star in an unaired series of PlayStation 2 snuff films. Deemed unable to integrate into greater society, they've been contained deep within an Olive Garden blacksite ever since.

@georgetakei this is so true! #truthspeak #truths #truth #fact #factoids

follow-up factoid: the Earth's moon is a diameter of 2,159 miles, so Ben Kenobi was correct in a couple ways when he said "That's no moon..." -- at 75 miles, the Death Star is tiny by comparison! #TIL #StarWars #Factoids

Today i learned that the Death Star is 75 miles in diameter. This information will now stick with me forever, likely replacing something vastly more important. #TIL #StarWars #Factoids

I'm not sure who does this more, me or my dad.
