Wow.... just wow.

Birds are dinosaurs

The caption says it's Willow Creek Jasper, but it looks like meat and pickles and onions and sauce on a flatbread

I'm sorry, but I need you to see this rock that looks like a sandwich that I just found on Instagram.

I do know that most bespoke clothing includes generous allowances (often decided in consultation with the client) for alterations in the event of weight gain or loss. They're made to last a lifetime, and so traditionally physical changes of the owner over time are taken into consideration.

This is a lovely accomplishment (and well worth being proud of) that I happened to catch on Chris K's wall... bravo, you!

The sicko meme, but rather than showing the sicko guy at the window, it shows "Thong Song" singer Sisqo.

Brendan Gleeson (a twofer really, because his son Domhnall is a terrific actor in his own right).

‘Sex reversal’ is surprisingly common in birds, new study suggests Survey of five Australian avians finds numerous discordant individuals, including a genetically male bird that had laid an egg

Sex-reversal in birds (genetically male/female but appear female/male) is surprisingly common. Best detail: A genetically male bird called a laughing kookaburra had recently laid an egg. (1/2)

Just like GOP did with pensions... A guaranteed monthly income for retirement (that could have been made portable for job changes), instead became 401k, the grift for Wall Street to siphon our money. Employees fund it, & if we're lucky, our boss might match up to a scant 4%.. & we get all the risk.

As the old saying goes, zinc for the dink.

Bravo to Ohio, and also to the excellent reporting team and announcer for truthfully reporting on this event.

I love this thread.

I took my senior citizen mother & mother-in-law to a stadium in the nearest city where we all got vaccinated, & it was incredibly well organized. Kind national guardsmen helped keep things moving, & both the moms chatted with them. We were all so grateful to get those shots.

Juvenile Heermann's gull (very dark all over) in flight, flying over very very shallow water. Flying to the right maybe two feet off the ground. It's shadow is to the right. Just below the shadow is a reflection on the sheen of water.

Got this really cool, ghostly picture by accident the other day in Dillon Beach, CA. It is a Heermann's gull with both it's shadow and reflection.

Yep...cold water. I learned that from a friend of mine who is a chef and it works beautifully... it also helps to keep them moist.

The recipe stealing song is just the absolute best, haha!

I'm laughing so hard I'm gasping... fantastic

Thank you for all this great information & the localharvest website! I used it to find a participating farm very nearby, & fresh, organic veggies will be boxed up with my name beginning next week. I was surprised by how inexpensive this is in comparison to what I often spend at the grocery store.

A very happy birthday to you, Marisa. Your work has been a hugely important resource through all of this, and I'm astonished everyday at your bravery and commitment. Baby, you're a (much deserved)⭐!

High school typing class practice sentence that every gen x remembers in their sleep:

"Now is the time for all good men to come to the aid of their country."

The class was tedious as hell, but by the time I finished high school I could type 80+ wpm.

Turns out it's pretty good sentence, too.

I'm seriously counting the days. My favorite is the six-part series on the Roosevelt family. It's riveting.

and all those remarkable Ken Burns documentaries too!

At the grocery store I notice that if the price has remained the same/close, the quantity is less. Corps either use new, smaller packaging, or the same packaging but less inside. Twelve ounces has become 8 1/2 ounces. That package of cheese slices that used to have fifteen slices now has twelve.

Fantastic! My husband of 20 years recently casually mentioned that he hung out with Fergie at Ricky Nelson's pool house at a party one night. What?? Stuff like this bubbles up all the time. I love that he would never think to name drop, & I love that it creates a sort of mystery that remains.

I still have some of the best mixtapes and CDs that were made for me. I'll never give them up.
