Anyone who stops learning is old, whether at twenty or eighty. Anyone who keeps learning stays young. The greatest thing in life is to keep your mind young.
If you're gonna put out a meme called "Fun Penguin Facts for Kids," you should get your fun facts correct. They could have fixed it by just simply changing "only" to "mostly."
Or they could have fixed it also by calling it "King Penguin Facts for Kids."
Although... I can't say for certain whether this is an emperor penguin or a king penguin because the image is stylized rather than a real photograph. My best guess is that it's a king penguin, mainly because of the relatively bright orange patches on the sides of the head and the hint of orange extending onto the upper chest. King penguins typically have more vivid orange coloration and a slimmer, more elegant appearance, while emperor penguins are generally bulkier with softer, paler yellow markings around the head and neck. Since artists and AI image generators don't always reproduce these details accurately, there's no way to be completely sure, but if I had to make the call, I'd lean toward king penguin.
And yes... I take this stuff seriously.
If you're going to put out penguin memes, KNOW YOUR PENGUINS!

Your mileage post is funny!... I'm not sure if I agree with math either...
But I do agree that post about penguins (or anything) should be well researched before posted

Especially as most kids today spread everything from the internet as gospel.

Jerry I would contend that most *people* today spread everything from the internet as gospel (QANON and most political entities are the easy examples). Ageism is the last remaining acceptable prejudice. I will gladly admit it triggers me. I absolutely hated it when I was a kid and people didn't take me seriously. Still hate it all these years later at 63. Of course, now it's the other end-- people assume because of my gray hair I don't understand technology...
