Yup, this entire post is a thinly veiled excuse to post a picture of the Bob Semple "tank" - and there's scare quotes around that because even though it's April Fools Day the "it's not a tank" mafia scare me. 

The vehicle itself is nothing more than a corrugated metal shed perched precariously on a caterpillar tractor, filled with men, and sent off to face either immediate destruction or gales of laughter. A couple of guns droop out of it in a way suggesting they need to take more medical advice from posters above the urinals in motorway service stations.

My apologies to people requiring screenreaders, but even my vast reserves of scorn are insufficient for explaining how utterly bizarre this thing is. It's like somebody was working purely from a description of a tank and possibly a very fuzzy photograph. Which is more or less what happened.

April Fools gags are a cheap and lazy way to generate content for poor quality clickbait accounts.

And in other news, I'm pleased to notice that with the US no longer a reliable ally New Zealand has announced plans to resume domestic tank production.

South Dakota is introducing a bill (HB1239) to criminalize librarians and teachers. They will be criminally charged if young audiences check out a book that the government deems unsuitable or inappropriate.

ATTENTION ELON MUSK:

We Americans do not want the $5,000 stimulus check from DOGE. Take that money and give it to the thousands of federal workers that you fired. They don't know where their next paycheck is coming from.

Thanks,
Americans That Care

UF plans to flush bats from stadiums A custom lakefront bat house is the centerpiece in the University of Florida's novel attempt to move about 4,000 bats that have become a nuisance at their current home in school athletics...

found this fun article from 1991 about how they started as a colony of 3000 and had to be relocated at considerable cost because they were living in and pooping all over the track stadium.

Phyllis Dillerโ€™s Gag File This beige metal cabinet is Phyllis Dillerโ€™s gag file, a categorized archive of the jokes Diller used in her stand-up comedy routines throughout her half-century long career.

Did you know that Phyllis Diller typed out all of her jokes on index cards? Did you also know that her "Gag File" is part of the Smithsonian's National Museum of American History's collection? Did you also know that those cards have been digitized and you can browse through them?
