PSA that newer Dymo machines are really crappy. Look for an old one.

Grace Jones is way older

wait. VELCRO is a portmanteau of velvet + crochet?!? 🤯 waynedalenews.com/2025/03/what...

I don’t think people really understand when I say Giant Isopods can gorge themselves on a meal. Look at how much the stomach of this small male is extended from snacking on raw chicken in my trap.

Just some paper cutting ASMR for ya

https://gacha.o0o0.jp/gp/archives/36481 『カイカイ』5月発売予定。痒みは、どこから来てどこへ行くのか？ "Kaikai" is scheduled to be released in May. Where does the itch come from and where does it go? #ガチャポン #gachapon

Also no doubt horrified by it being called "The Bean" in the headline

Genuinely insane remote included with my LED matrix panel

Best news of the day… and I’m glad it finally happened. #ArtifactRepatriation www.cbc.ca/news/vatican...

Nestlé worried AI will destroy world’s water supply before they do

Any time I think about looking at the news...

For #FossilFriday & in honor of @alinemghilardi.bsky.social & colleagues' fantastic discovery of a new Cretaceous pterosaur in Brazil in a dinosaur regurgitalite ("fossil vomit"), here's a diagram I made for my book 'Dinosaurs Without Bones' (2014) showing the physics of a puking brachiosaur. 🧪🦕🤮🪨

topical CBD ointment? oh, you mean Cream of Weed

Take cover if you’re in Toronto! #dlws

Whole thing is here. Imagine yourself as a seven year old kid with severe anxiety and insomnia issues. At least I only saw it in black and white, and stopped watching before the scene with the axe, or I probably would have needed to be hospitalized. youtu.be/6OzK3bfAPfU?...

What fictional creature/villain traumatized you as a kid?

Big Daddy, Williams 1963

Calling it now. If a substantial contingent of ultras travels to Toronto for next year’s World Cup games the city will be caught totally flat-footed. They better be hiring serious international consultants to tell them how to manage this

Last day to get 25% off any of my prints. Including the Imperial Pub which closes for good today!! Jaketobin.ca/shop

This got me thinking about the Chrysler "as big as a whale" in the B52s song and a short-finned pilot whale is actually smaller than a 1960s Chrysler 300 convertible. Thanks, Wikipedia.

the cool thing about the original we’ll meet again is that the vera lynn recording uses a Hammond Novachord which is the world’s first commercial polyphonic synths. it uses hundreds of vacuum tubes and sounds weird in a good way. here’s someone playing one

your dead AI mother loves you so much ❤️

Today on the calendar, a seminal and mind-altering work

There's a place at Chengdu's 人民公园 (People's Park) that sells these cute little dessert sampler trays

These are great, yeah. The only thing I'll use.

This will be an ongoing thread where I post the best Canadian Rock n' Roll of the 1960s. It's a genre that Americans know little about and to which most Canadians pay no attention. Vancouver, British Columbia. 1967. The Painted Ship: www.youtube.com/watch?v=raRE...

@tomgauld.bsky.social gets the front window at Drawn and Quarterly's bookshop. Nice to see them promoting funny books for a change. Fun fact: I have a Tom Gauld helmet bag. One of my treasured possessions for sure.

*shakily removing glasses*

Very cool thread!

Oh, the guy you gave about a quarter page to rant about how woke science is now? That guy? What a surprise!

My whole adult life I've occasion to use the wonderful line, "You can't dynamite the bridge and expect a better bridge to be there when it falls" without being sure where it was from. Eventually I figured out it wasn't "a quote", Steve Kurtz said it in class around '97 or '98 and I never forgot it.

Update

Great piece that argues, Less playable art, more everyday play

I hate that AI has made me approach cute animal videos with an air of suspicion. I resent having to harden my heart to the possibility of an unlikely friendship between a very large dog and a very small one

Happy birthday to geologist Charles Lyell (1797-1875) who in his famous ‘Principles of Geology,’ wrote that to avoid some sources of prejudice in understanding #geology would require an Amphibious Being, who could, say, compare processes happening today on land & those happening below 🧵 #histsci 🧪🐡⚒️
