The day the music died: Gay penguin passes away in Sydney, leaves behind partner
deccanherald.com/world/the-day-the-music-died-gay-penguin-passes-away-in-sydney-leaves-behind-partner-3159739
Quick Glance: Sphen and Magic: A Heartfelt Penguin Love Story
- Sphen and Magic, a groundbreaking same-sex penguin couple, gained fame by successfully raising two chicks and promoting awareness of rainbow families. After Sphen's passing at nearly 12 years old, Magic began to sing, prompting the entire penguin colony at Sea Life Sydney Aquarium to join in a poignant tribute.
- The pair's six-year bond was notable, representing about half the lifespan of a Gentoo penguin in captivity. Unlike many penguin pairs, Sphen and Magic maintained their partnership outside of breeding season, which is uncommon for their species.
- Their relationship began in 2018 when staff observed them swimming together. They built a nest and were eventually given a real egg to incubate, successfully hatching two chicks in 2018 and 2020. Their story was included in educational resources for teachers, highlighting the importance of diverse family structures.
- In the aftermath of Sphen's death, attention has shifted to Magic, who is preparing for his first breeding season alone. Experts note that in the wild, surviving penguins often find new mates after such losses, and the aquarium will continue to monitor Magic's well-being.

Quick Glance: Russell Westbrook and the Denver Nuggets: Trade speculations hint at a recurring time
- Reportedly, there is interest from Russell Westbrook to join the Denver Nuggets, who might be in need of backcourt support as Kentavious Caldwell-Pope exits NBA free agency.
- Having failed to defend their title and seeing Kentavious Caldwell-Pope move to the Orlando Magic, the Denver Nuggets could potentially incorporate Russell Westbrook in their backcourt. This could also signify the second instance in two seasons of a team creating space for Westbrook by trading Reggie Jackson to the Hornets.
- Despite the differing circumstances, it seems like the Nuggets are repeating the Lakers' past mistake. Swapping the ultimate 3-and-D wing for the exact opposite qualities proved unsuccessful for the Lakers.
- The outcome for Denver compared to the Lakers remains to be seen, but currently, it's challenging not to grow weary of Earth. Fatigued by these individuals. Exhausted from being entangled in the chaos of their lives.
