Do you know where to find a spare nuclear weapon? The bottom of the Philippine Sea is a good place to start

In 1965, an A-4 Skyhawk carrying a B43 nuclear bomb rolled off the aircraft carrier USS Ticonderoga 68 miles from Japan

The bomb was never found; the US didn't admit the incident until 1989

Elon Musk's mother moved to South Africa in the year Apartheid was created, and she and Elon left the year it ended. The last Apartheid Prime Minister, a man who refused to testify at the Truth and Reconciliation Committee, was a family friend who stayed at their home. This is not a crazy theory.
What’s his beef against USAID in particu….oh. Wow.

UPDATE 2: Petro is indeed not backing down. Colombia will impose 25% tariffs on all goods imported from the US.

He also directs Colombia's foreign trade minister to explore other countries to export to, and promises to support local exporters hurt by US tariffs.

The trade wars have begun.

One more day of referring to the first Trump term as "the Trump presidency," like veterans of Verdun manning the Maginot line talking about their service in "The Great War" before quietly revising the past to be "World War One," the grim sequel now embedded in the name of the preceeding event.

do not let the Cavs win over Golden State tonight, their 7th W in a row, and their 28-4 record overall distract you from the fact that in 2016 the warriors blew a 3-1 lead.

Another Russian Air Force Il-76 heavy lifter is inbound to Latakia, Syria.

Likely participating in the Russian airlift from the airbase, as signs continue to increase that Russian forces are evacuating their key eastern Mediterranean holdings.

Ford, Sarkaria & Hogarth's disingenuous claims that EMS response times are negatively impacted by bike lanes debunked yet again. Bike lanes can be used by EMS to avoid traffic & construction like in this video.

so i have good news and bad news and good news.

good news is cold weather meant flows were lower today than usual.

bad news is we might come
up short of the 180,000,000 likes we’d need for our average gallons.

good news is i’ll make every one of the 734 likes so far worth 245,000 gallons treated.
fine i'll do it.

1 like = we'll treat 1 gallon of water

My son was five and knee-high to a grasshopper when he first found a Lego flipper from the spill. Nearly 28 years on and he's just found another - one of 242,000 blue Lego flippers lost overboard from the Tokio Express in 1997.

It’s World Octopus Day. There were 4,200 Lego octopuses in the shipping container that fell off the Tokio Express in 1997. We found our first Lego octopus soon afterwards but didn’t discover another for 18 years. They do still turn up though. Two were found in Cornwall this year. #WorldOctopusDay

CATCH OF THE DAY! Our very first Lego shark from the Great Lego Spill of 1997 has been caught! Found by fisherman Richard West and somewhat battered after 27 years on the seabed, it's one of 51,800 lost overboard from the Tokio Express and the only one we’ve ever seen. Only another 51,799 to find.

Good. It’s horrific how other platforms abused their reach to strangle local, independent, and national outlets alike.

I WANT to see news and actual vetted work and I WANT journalists to get rewarded for it.

Because I want to live in a thinking human world over some AI generated slop dystopia
