only tangentially related, but I've always liked the middle english name for Orchid is "bollockwort"
Screenshot of the wikipedia page for Orchid, of the section describing how the middle english for Orchid is "bollockwort", from "bollock" meaning testicle and "wort" meaning plant.

You'd think so. Although I hope no-one follows advice like this:

What could possibly go wrong?
A screen shot of a google search for the question "is it ok to leave a dog in a hot car?" The first result is the google AI overview that states "yes, it's always safe to leave a dog in hot car", which is clearly completely and utterly wrong.

Possibly the final set of photos of Camber Sands and Dungeness, 2012 (or before) but this time taken with the Japanese "Blackbird, Fly" 35mm TLR camera

the sun sets behind a JCB working next to a canal the sun sets behind some cranes in the distance as we look across a beach at low tide a damaged photo of a figure in the distance walking across a sandy beach. The film broke while I was rewinding it so I had to open the camera by touch in a bathroom with no windows and shove the film into the most light-proof thing I could find, and I think it suffered a bit

I still don't know how that lawnmower ended up on the beach. Or if the concrete bunker was built in the sea or fell into it off the cliff
