This would be funny if it weren't so dumb: my neighbors caught their house on fire by leaving sausages on the grill unattended (?) and they also insist on parking in front of the fire hydrant. Literally just his rust heap with an exhaust leak idling next to the hydrant for over an hour today so far

The 46 comments on that section are ominous, sounds like fierce debates about the philosophical nature of a document and whether we can actually know anything or whether any of this is real

A friend just sent me this picture of his mastiff, Peanut.

Let it wash over you.
OK, I’m usually pretty good with alt text, but this one may defeat me. Imagine the biggest, wrinkliest black dog. 

Now imagine a large, violently green ball.

Now imagine that Peanut the mastiff has put a ball exactly the size of his enormous maw into his enormous maw, completely filling it like a cork, or a big green baby binky.

That is this.

#OTD 19 September 1991, walkers in the high Ötztal alps on the Italian border, found a body melting out of the ice. It turned out to be the remains of a c.5200 year old man preserved with all his kit.
Of course, it was essential to replicate him in Playmobil.

What it sounds like when philosophers who are also anti-trans activists submit an amicus brief to a US court where they argue for banning trans girls and women from women's sports.

the option of interpreting the Idaho and West Virginia
statutes as motivated by the justified aim of excluding
all males from female sports, it is quite invidious to
interpret them as instead motivated by the unjustified
aim of excluding males who identify as female in par-
ticular.
Consider a simple analogy. Imagine that we are
back in Medieval Europe. Gold is the currency of the
land. Consequently, many merchants prefer to accept
gold and only gold as payment. However, a new move-
ment is afoot, whose members are known as the alche-
mists. The alchemists purport to have found a way of
turning iron pyrite (fool’s gold) into gold. Some people
are convinced by the claims of the alchemists, though
many others are not. This difference in attitudes
starts to lead to time-wasting interactions in which an
alchemist or fellow traveler tries to purchase a good
using iron pyrite from a merchant who, unmoved by
well-publicized insistence on the part of the alche-
mists that only irrational prejudice could lie behind
lingering doubts about the possibility of converting
iron pyrite into gold, continues to insist on only ac-
cepting gold as payment. One such merchant, whose
unofficial working policy has hitherto been to accept
only gold as payment, decides to make his policy offi-
cial by putting up a sign on his store saying, “Only
gold accepted (no iron pyrite!).”

Catholic levels of shame are probably bad, but we're living in an era when people absolutely should feel some public shame for doing bad shit and just *don't*
