All right! I'm a little over half way through and I still have about half my time left so I should finish with effort but not a lot of stress.

Here, have another video of traditional music from Acadia that incorporates turlutte:

Argh my brain is shutting down and I have two days to complete a 7 minute presentation on "turlutte."

No, not cephalopod fishing lures in France.

No, not oral sex in France.

Québécois folk music made by singing in an onomatopoeic manner. Often with fiddles and podrythmie (foot stomping).

A cropped screenshot from a Canadian government website with the prompt "What's your occupation?" The answer "Writer" has been provided, generating the red text error response "Please enter a valid occupation."

Almost a year now since I received this absolutely classic burn from the Canadian government.

As a non-science major it was great to have science courses taught by people who took us seriously as students.

Primates bare their teeth as a sign of submission or appeasement.

A column of iPhone app buttons screenshotted from my home screen: MyRadar (with a bit of white on some edges), Camera, Podcats, Planets, Messenger, and Bluesky (also with a bit of white on the edges).

Has anyone noticed that app buttons on the iPhone are starting to in-flatten? MyRadar, Yelp, and Bluesky all have brightness around the edges that makes them look a little 3-D:

I can only imagine being Canadian feels a bit like living next to a frat house that's always throwing ragers and getting the cops called on them and dumping trash in the front yard

and then every once in a while they complains that Canada's lawn is over 4 inches and in violation of HOA

That is a really good question. This video is very interesting.

Nusantara is a city under construction that will become the new capital of Indonesia, replacing Jakarta, a city wracked by environmental problems.

Johannesburg and Cape Town nearly ran out of water in 2020. Now Tehran.

Many centers of power will be relocated out of environmental necessity.

Relying on ChatGPT to teach you about a topic leaves you with shallower knowledge than Googling and reading about it, according to new research that compared what more than 10,000 people knew after using one method or the other.

Sustainable relationships with precious resources, with nature, are built into so many cultures. Our modern one is the anomaly!

Loose chicken fouls N train as subway stowaway slows morning commute A loose chicken gave new meaning to “free range,” scoring a gratis subway ride to Coney Island on the N train Thursday morning after it was discovered fouling a subway car in storage.

A train crew found a loose chicken on an N train this morning—and couldn’t get it to leave.

In Nepal, all good dogs are worshipped On the second day of Nepal’s Tihar festival, dogs were celebrated with flower garlands and treats in a ritual to please the Hindu god of death.

Oh mah gawwwd, this is as wonderful as the Nepalese Hindu celebration of doggos!!

WMF was driving around Point Reyes last night looking for a good spot to see the Aurora Borealis. When we parked the car and got out, we saw some eyes on the other side of the fence. It turned out to be a coyote and a badger. I’m guessing they were hunting together? Or maybe just having a visit.

"Over twenty years ago, a boy I liked gave me a couple CDs he burned. One was a Mitch Hedburg set, and the other was an unlabeled album of dreamy electronica unlike anything I had ever heard. The relationship didn't work out, and I never knew what the music was. Well, today I heard some familiar sounds on Def Con Radio, and that was it. Now I know my high school crush gave me a copy of the debut album from Boards of Canada. I hope Soma FM can keep internet radio alive, and keep introducing me to new music, one way or another." -- Dustin

"Why does Sonic need a car?" motherfucker why do YOU? You can run everywhere too if you want to but here you are. Maybe address north american urban design so we can get some 15 minute cities, and quality public transit options.

Scientists recently combined DNA from crabs and cheetahs. Things went sideways fast.

Absolute banger of a song. Anyway, be safe out there dating people!

JUST IN: A tidal wave of 30,000 students hit the streets in Charlotte, walking out to confront ICE with sheer numbers and zero hesitation.

This is a generation refusing to be controlled.

This is a great critique of modern fantasy shows in general. Limited release trying to tell an epic story, years of production time, and then a failure of interest from fans who are expected to remember everything across multiple year gaps. 1/2

I was just thinking of the pro-Trump rallies out that way in the past that attract white people.

I thought Kailua was the evil place now?

I may have overcooked the bird but the dogs won't care and I can always make soup if it's really bad.
