Man, it was super silly of me to wear my watch at a comfortable tightness. I had it on 24/7 during my last big race training and never got good content. What a waste.

There is something extra ghoulish about Canes using AI-generated images of a dead man to sell chicken fingers. I don’t care how awful of a person Chuck Norris was later in life, this feels so fundamentally wrong.

Not saying that game was stolen from Egypt but it is now on display at museum in London.

Sir, a second 94 degree day has entered the forecast.

This photo.

Very little contemplation on my end. LoTR marathon in my basement because my dog is v afraid of fireworks. Made him a little blanket fort cave that he enjoys.

If Trump isn’t on the phone tomorrow to get Balogun un-suspended what even was the point of all that corruption

I've decided to compile a definitive thread of photos of the best sheep I've photographed during my walks in the countryside, together with supporting biographical information. I will put the vital story associated with each sheep in the alt text, since some of it is a little long to fit in a post.

Fun fact: Your body (especially your lungs and kidneys) are incredibly skilled at balancing your pH. Your blood stays in a narrow pH between 7.35-7.45 when everything is good. Your stomach acid is ~1-2 pH, so alkaline foods don't make a difference. Just eat a balanced diet for your body type.

In other news, a local beaver is concerned about water backing up in the stream. He tells us "I only made a little tree nest here, it is probably another animal's fault."

Niche interest to be into knots, but as a climber and former camp-kid, there is something cool about ancient skills and techniques still being a primary solution to modern scientific achievements.

Apparently porcupine babies are born with soft quills that harden in the 30 minutes after they're born. What a metal-ass baby.

"When Trump finally took the stage, he lauded America as the "hottest” nation in the world. “Nobody’s laughing at us anymore,” said the man filling in for Milli Vanilli."

I don't think we know how long a snake can get, and in the age of CRISPR and that Dire wolf shenanigans, I am almost afraid to share this thought.

Holy shit Ivory Coast is up on Germany 1-0

Be ungovernable.

In my head these two stories are related. I really can't see how this country survives as a legitimate and respected power if we don't investigate and prosecute for actions like these boat strikes and the girls school bombing. thehill.com/policy/defen...

To be fair, I think it is doing as good of job as the average congressman would.

The Grinch has to protect Cindy Lou Who from time traveling cyber-Grinches after Whonet takes over Whoville. The Grinch struggles with the chase scenes because he has cardiomegaly.

My herding dog is smart enough to realize I don't like it when my other dog barks out the window. His solution: bark at our other dog whenever he goes to look out the window.

Can confirm, this scares the shit out of patients.

Crypto adds are starting to read like Tom Haverford from Parks and Rec got wasted on Snake Juice.

found a little buddy and brought her to a nice flower shrub, but why are her wings so mangled? :( #invertebrate

Man who watched the leopards eating faces for years and supported it: "Damn, these leopards really will eat your face. Who knew?"

A wnba player who is also a sack of yams would be named Courtney Willyams.

Super close, but it likely isn't Iran who is Lucy. www.politifact.com/article/2020...

"Something remarkable happened in April. For the first time in history, wind and solar generated more electricity than gas across the entire planet. Not in a country. Not in a region. Globally." Tons of great news here from Danny Kennedy (via @billmckibben.bsky.social's newsletter, which rules).

When your colleague asks "hey how are you?" in the hallway but you're both on a task & going opposite ways at a good pace, do you: A) Respond "Good, and you?" but now risk facing away from each other/barely turned for their response. B) Just say "Good," leaving the air heavy & incomplete.

A double death drop is something you have to watch a second time.

Who Framed Roger Rabbit may have had the most realistic villain of all time.

This thread. This thread explains why when I saw this headline yesterday my stomach dropped all the way to my toes. www.reuters.com/business/hea...

Wait that was an option? I've been doing it all wrong.

Holy shit NE softball! 3 run play.

Cool study topic, but I just could not look away from Electrobulbogram. The intensity peering out from the white background. What do they need? What does Electrobulbogram want?

The Nebraska navy has ancient roots.

As a talking animal I feel I missed my calling.

I'm a firm believer that a role of the arts departments is to tell the STEM kids what not to do. Always fund the arts.

Finally got a new phone. Setup asked if I want AI to write texts & organize my life. You glorified-autocorrect bastard, you dare ask to use my face as a mask? To make my life an empty digital hull to be claimed as if by the ghost of a hermit crab? Be gone, back to the chasm from which you came.

Xi out here punching down.

Unbothered. Moisturized. Happy. In My Lane. Focused. Flourishing.

Crashing tonight at Ait Benhaddou, will let you know if I get attacked by any mummies.

Honey, what’s wrong? You’ve barely touched your Dude Perfect Ruffles Flavor Swap Doritos Cool Ranch Flavored chips.

Absolutely insane. Also: “Just 11 seconds further back was Ethiopia’s Yomif Kejelcha, who — running in his first-ever marathon — also covered the 26.2-mile (42.2-kilometer) course in under 2 hours.” Third place came in just barely over two hours as well. A bunch of demi-gods.

Pour one out for the Hilton staff who are working perhaps the worst shift in food service history rn.

The human circulatory system, before and after proper cable management.

Tech bros forgot what trains can do.

This was a scripted event (cleared by secret service, Fox ready to go, etc), & yet it is such a depressing view of the US. A grandma w/ no life savings b/c of a broken healthcare system delivers McDonalds to a billionaire as an ad for DoorDash. I need to pet a dog & feel the sun after watching that.
