Weekend roundup for 3 December

Featuring terrifying bangs, titanosaurs and endangered tiki bars

A couple of quick updates from us before we get into this week’s roundup…

First off: There will be no Weekend Roundup next week. We’re having to skip it because we’re going to be out of the country for a few days next week (and we can’t pre-write the news).

Second: Just a reminder that if you become a paying supporter of LiB before the end of the year then we’ll donate half the money we get from your subscription to the homelessness charity CRISIS.

And that also applies if you buy a subscription as a gift for someone:

If you’re already a paying subscriber then thank you very much for supporting us. You bring us even more joy and satisfaction than we get untangling a set Christmas tree lights.
