Facebook keeps showing me videos from a guy who gives lethal injections of vinegar to invasive coral predator sea stars, which is probably good conservation work but just feels like echinoderm snuff films

The crew of an Amiot 351 bomber assembled for a photograph at the tail of their airplane, where a laundry line festooned with their uniforms has been hung across its double tail fines. On the left, a crewman stands in white briefs underwear, his arms behind his back with a clearly visible bulge in the briefs.

I know the trash you're reading, pal!!

The TRUE Vibe Shift report: a regular library patron of mine who usually checks out a lot of churchy books and Inspirational Romance put Omar El Akkad's One Day, Everyone Will Have Always Been Against This on hold

My piece on anthropology's impact on genre fiction is avaailable to read online, only at everyoe's favorite Strange Horizons online magazine!

"Enough about the Shardana, bring on the Chardonnay!"

His son is also a guitarist

He gotta come out with an album called “Next of Kihn”

The streets demand it

@majjackdowning.bsky.social Bloch heads eating good with this footage

Stella Was a Diver and She Was Always Down

Lmao @kevinbaker.bsky.social the synthesis of our picks!

I read it like a gag song where someone’s appearance is the punchline, but you’re right that it has a further punchline of the POV narrator being into it. Much to think about.

I'll even grant them a handful of bangers like "Sweet Emotion" and it doesn't even begin to redress the balance.

Although without it, we may never have gotten "Petite Feet", so who can say whether its bad or good

"Dude (Looks Like a Lady)." Not even for gender panic reasons, though that doesn't help. Just a dogshit riff, juiceless chorus, and inescapable ubiquity a needle drop in trailers for every single comedy with a cross dressing scene made between 1988-present

EXCELLENT pick

An ad for Hecker machine tools in a 1942 issue of Aviation magazine, featuring a clean cut operator at a milling tool saying "The guy who designed this jig sure knows machine tools!"

Hey I found @scoobydouchebag.bsky.social in a 1942 airplane magazine. He's always saying this!

It's a treat! Makes one wish "jangle ska" had longer legs

Boy I can't wait for zoomers to have a 2010 of their own

No one's idea of a deep cut, but "Save It For Later" has conquered my brain lately

As was the style in the 30s, this racer was developed into a fighter in hopes of taking advantage of its speed. This produced an absolutely baller looking aircraft that was sadly unsuited to combat (weight of armament severely hampered performance) which was palmed off to Polish exile units.

The replica of the marvellous Caudron C.460 in flight.
This marvel was the first land-based plane in the world to exceed 500 km/h in 1934, powered by an inverted 6-cylinder Renault 456 engine developing just 360 hp.

Greg Kihn was trying to achieve this for most of the 80s

Commending myself on going with my gut in 2009 when I thought “huh, all of the slimiest, worst people seem really excited about this. Something to steer clear of.”

I have no evidence for this, but I don’t think it’s a coincidence that BC is cratering as the Epstein files dribble out. Feels like the whales are converting back to worthless fiat currency now that the international pedo ring that loved to use BC is losing viability. No reason for it anymore

Piping hot podcast here to warm up those cold winter nights! Snuggle up with a trusted partner and a mug of something warm and let Timothy Zahn sweep you away from the black ice and burst pipes as we zero in on the finale of Star Wars: The Hand of Thrawn: Specter of the Past

This was my first thought the instant I saw it. Very good chance the “2012” baby image made a big impression and influenced how the witness who described the creature would picture a strange humanoid

Remember how almost from the drop it was discovered that there was CP encoded in the Bitcoin blockchain, meaning that every single purchase of or transaction with Bitcoin was also disseminating CP? I sure do!
