Three of the top four posts on r/politics this morning are about a TED presentation on income inequality that is apparently “too hot” a topic for the conference’s organizers, and has been pulled.

The best AMA of the day (week?) is over at r/askscience. Paramedics have made a lot of appearances at r/iama, but this panel of emergency medical practitioners covers a lot of ground, from medical science to psychological burdens. (/r/askscience)
-
“IAmA former Army Sergeant and now zombie creator,” in which I learn that zombie fandom has now spread to podcasts. (/r/iama)

-
Redditor blueintegral dug up a pretty amazing Easter egg from the movie Iron Man 2. Treats like that are what happens when you have world class scientists working as consultants on a film. (/r/movies)
-
From the right angle this bug looks like some kind of hairy, cuddly scorpion. What is it? (/r/whatsthisbug)
