Other / unclassifiable — a classification, not a measurement. An on-box language model (Qwen3.6-35B-A3B-FP8, prompt version 1) read this channel’s own recent posts on 28 September 2026 and assigned it the closest of 31 fixed categories, at 34% confidence. This is a model’s judgement about what the channel is likely to be about, not a fact this register measured the way a subscriber count or a view count is measured — it can be revised on a later pass, and it carries no weight anywhere else on this page. How this classification works, and why it has no browse page of its own yet.

20 posts held, back to 9 August 2026 — the reader has not yet reached the start of this channel’s public history, so older posts may sit further back, unread. Read across 1 page of Telegram’s post history, 20 posts per page.
Nothing published in the last 30 days. ERR and ER are rolling 30-day measures, so there is nothing to compute — we hold 20 posts for this entry, the most recent from 10 August 2026. An engagement rate over an empty window would be a number about nothing.
TIL that although potatoes alone do not provide complete nutrition, you can survive for years on a diet of nothing but potatoes and buttermilk. https://www.scienceabc.com/eyeopeners/whats-wrong-with-potatoes-the-martian-movie-survival https://redd.it/1vk4eln @r_youshouldknow

TIL cows have "Eureka moments," getting excited after solving a problem. 1 group of cows was taught to press a panel to enter a room with food, while a second just entered the room after a time delay. The panel-pressing cows were significantly more excited to enter the room than the second group. https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-020-63848-1 https://redd.it/1vjzqfr @r_youshouldknow
TIL there's a town in Scotland where once a year, a man will dress head-to-toe in plants and walk around for 7 hours drinking whiskey.

TIL a Nantucket librarian discovered a comet from her rooftop in 1847, but an Italian astronomer reported the same comet to authorities two days later and nearly stole the credit.

YSK about saddle thrombosis and Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) as a cat owner Edit: the condition is called saddle thrombus, I spelled it incorrectly in my title. I've only just now noticed my error but google still brings it up even if you type thrombosis. I apologize for the oversight, I kept misreading how it's said. HCM is the most common heart condition in cats and it frequently goes unnoticed until it's to…
LPT: enjoy the taste of freshly baked bread and bagels anytime I learned this trick from a bread baker years ago. I was at the farmers market buying from my favorite bakery and was lamenting how the bread goes stale faster than I can eat it. The baker recommended that I slice up half the loaf as soon as I get home, and wrap the slices (2 at a time) in foil and throw them in the freezer. When I want to reheat, just …
TIL that Colonel Sanders sold KFC in 1964 for $2m. He became unhappy with the recipes calling the gravy "sludge." So he opened an outlet, Claudia Sanders, The Colonel's Lady Dinner House in 1968. KFC sued & he countersued for $122m. They finally settled, Sanders got $1m and kept their new outlet. https://www.tastingtable.com/1446327/colonel-sanders-competed-against-kfc-lawsuit/ https://redd.it/1vjr508 @r_youshouldkn…

TIL that the largest cavalry charge in human history occurred in 1683 during the battle of Vienna.

Showing the 12 most recent of 20 posts we hold for @r_youshouldknow. View and reaction counts are the latest single reading for each post, not a live figure, and a recent post is still accumulating both. A view count marked ≈ was rounded by Telegram before we ever saw it — t.me prints views in full below 1,000 and to three significant figures above, so ≈1,200,000 means somewhere between 1,150,000 and 1,249,999. Unmarked counts are exact. Text is reproduced from the public post preview and truncated for length.
Named by 1 registered channel — every channel on the register whose own posts have named this one, by its current username or any other username it currently holds, merged from two separately captured readings of the same fact so a namer caught by only one of them is not missed and a namer both caught is not counted twice. A username this channel has since dropped is not matched — that handle may belong to someone else now, and crediting today’s namer to yesterday’s owner would misattribute it.
Named by
Channels on the register whose posts name this channel's handle.
A mention is a weaker signal than a forward and is counted separately for that reason — naming a channel is not republishing it, and a handle in a post body is easy to place deliberately. The post counts beside each row below are distinct posts in which the handle appeared, from posts we have read on both sides — the “Named by N registered channels” figure above is a different count, of distinct NAMING CHANNELS rather than posts, and is not the sum of the rows under it.
A live page changes as we take new readings, so a citation should name the measurement it is based on, not just the URL. The line below cites the subscriber count as measured 18 September 2026 — this entry's latest reading, not the date you are reading this.
