TIL where astronauts sleep on a space station has to be extremely well ventilated with a constant flow of air over them. Warm air does not rise in space so astronauts in badly-ventilated sections end up surrounded by a bubble of their own exhaled carbon dioxide, the result being oxygen starvation.

Via TiL, but I had to track down the details elsewhere.
DC Comics sued DC Shoes for trademark breach of their logo. Their argument was that both logos contained the letters DC and a star, and both companies intended to use it on branded fashion apparel.
Turns out that while DC Comics’ lawyers were too busy running around looking for people to sue for trademark infringement, they hadn’t bothered to, you know, actually trademark the damn logo. As a result, the lawsuit was thrown out.
Then, the lawyers of DC Shoes, who had, actually, trademarked *their* logo, sued DC Comics on exactly the same grounds, and won. For several years, DC Comics had to pay DC Shoes a hefty amount of money so that they can keep using their own logo.

“Ballots were picked up at pre-designated headquarters and sent by “mules” throughout the surrounding counties. If we are to view the “mule” operation as we would a military operation, each major ring had an assigned area for dropping off ballots, often crossing state lines, and designed for the purpose of either tipping a state for Biden or giving the illusion of Democrat control of counties destined to flip to Trump.”
