Tricorders, the Science Museum, London

If you guys don't like half ring modifiers get a load of how CS people transliterate

Do you think this would inspire a nine-year-old to become a doctor or just traumatize him

Fascinating

Picasso, La Maternité, 1901

Gay crossing light, Trafalgar Square

22. i think it’s not impossible that Proto-Arabic had a *safʕala C-stem form, possibly alongside *ʔafʕala; Ḥassāniyya has a sa-causative and apparently so does the variety of Ibb in Yemen (though i haven’t seen the source of the claim)

So far scrolling my feed this morning I've learned that there's five Clevelands in Wisconsin, a Chunky Gal Mountain in North Carolina, and a Spam Museum in Northwood, Iowa. You guys are really getting into the map tag ethos.

Lot of French dudes wearing their underwear in the recreational lake we went to today. And here I was worrying I wouldn't fit in without a speedo.

La Meuse

Reims Cathedral again
