Iceland Cricket
about 6 hours ago
If you are the captain of an Icelandic trawler and decide to have a game of deck cricket, whatever you do, don't field first upon winning the toss. Your crew will likely mutiny and it is easy to make your fall look like an accident. It's cold down there.

I know we're all seeing 87 unhinged things per day, but "guys if our multi billion dollar product doesn't start being useful for something, literally anything, the people might not appreciate us wrecking the planet over it anymore" is a truly bananapants thing to say out loud

Photo shows 5 Greenlandic women in their national dress with beaded yokes. In the late 1920s Norway sought to possess East Greenland. Norwegian knitting designer Annichen Sibbern Bøhn designed a sweater which mimicked the Greenlandic beaded yoke. And that's how yoked sweaters became a thing. 🧵

Head canon: Pingu is clearly seen interacting with a polar bear. Pingu therefore can only be a northern hemisphere penguin - aka the great auk, aka the OG penguin. Pingu is amongst the last survivors of a species thought to be extinct.

"after the storm I see again a weasel" I'm sorry dude was cooking here. He should have rolled with it. You expect to see a calm sea after a storm, but a weasel is new and refreshing.

Have seen many variations of this & broadly agree—but the part that struck me in the moment wasn’t “this is a microcosm for how America sucks” — it was “this is a microcosm for trying to behave democratically & respectfully of one another in a complex, evolving situation with things we can't know.”

Italian voice actor Carlo Bononi was the voice of all of the characters on Pingu. A trained clown by trade, he used a theater technique called grammelot, which consists of "speaking" in a mix of babbled gibberish noises. He improvised all the voices live and unscripted.

Fascinating essay on *why* some cultures are terrified of reheating rice and others just...do it every day. The justification cycle - racialised thinking, call to science, appeal to long past and/or 'traditional' wisdom - seems universal for this sort of food story

i keep coming back to this to look at that curvature. you can SEE how small it is because of how much more convex that horizon looks. blows my mind how alien it would feel to stand there and see the edge of the world so much more clearly than you do on Earth
