Snarkless: AI Breakthroughs and Animal Rescues

Snarkless – Because even we need a break from the madness. Once a day, we swallow our sarcasm (it burns, honestly) and deliver three legitimately good news stories—no cynicism, no side-eye, just pure, unfiltered positivity. It’s weird for us too, but hey, even the apocalypse deserves a little sunshine.

Here are a few more Snarkless stories making the rounds . . .

1.  A new A.I.-powered test is able to diagnose osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis with 98.1% accuracy . . . and even better, it only requires a small sample of joint fluid.  The researchers say that this technology’s fast diagnosis could become a valuable tool in healthcare.

2.  A nearly 5-foot-long boa constrictor had to be brought down from a limb in Texas last week.  It was a pet boa . . . unable to fend for itself in the wild.  The animal control officer who rescued it also FOSTERED it.  He said, “She needed a good home, and I felt like me and my son and my wife could give her one . . . her name is [now] Ruby.” 

Here’s a news report about it.

3.  Two horses in Arizona couldn’t make it out of a mud pit on their own, so an entire team of rescuers was brought in.  It took seven people more than an hour to pull the endangered horses free.  An especially brave man named Andy went into the mud repeatedly, which was risky because the wild horses were thrashing in the mud. 

Here are photos . . . and a news report.
