@garius That's on par with this gem.

Sadly the article has been edited since and the caption is less charming. Here's a link to the fun version: en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?t

A screenshot of a wikipedia article showing a photo of a penguin and a bagpiper standing on an ice floe with the caption "Piper Kerr (right), a member of the Scottish National Antarctic Expedition, plays the bagpipes for an indifferent penguin (left), March 1904"

Today's Globe says 39k cars pass through the Sumner Tunnel per day. (So maybe 50-60k people?) By comparison, 369k people per day take MBTA trains. 296k take buses. If the budget is as tight as our leaders claim, why not spend more precious cash on things that move more people? #MBTA #BosPoli

We've seen this movie before. As Imani Barbarin says, they’re going to “herd immunity” climate change.

Policymakers seem afraid to say so.Screenshots of headlines.

Well, that's in my head now.

@spocko I learned so much geography from those lists of wrong turns. To this day, I hear "Perth Amboy" in Bugs' voice.

@antipode77 @ATLeagle @mekkaokereke KE = 1/2 MV2, so taxes should go up based on the square of the weight increase.

I love how the FINITE portion of INFINITE is pronounced completely differently.

(I only realized this because I had a non-native English speaking professor who very understandably pronounced finite with short short i's.)

DeSantis and Florida republicans have wiped hundreds of thousands of vote by mail registrations from the system—mostly democrats

That means people will not be getting the ballots they requested for the upcoming election if they don’t find if it’s them and re-register

When there are no consequences for fascists?

They keep taking rights until they win.

Latest blog post about the Riverbend Park issue and why we're going to open it up even without the help of Mass DCR.

And we hope you can join us today, 11am at JFK park. Looks like the rain is going to hold off for us!

Let me tell you about the greatest color-by-numbers of all time.

The first up-close photo of Mars was taken in 1965 by the Mariner 4 spacecraft.

But it doesn't look like much, right? Grainy and blotchy and hard to tell what exactly you're looking at.

A grainy, blotchy, black and white photo of Mars. It covers a bit more than half the photo, arcing up from the lower left to upper right of the photo.

I found the video of Creature that I couldn't find!

youtu.be/fL50aOcU13E

Creature was a Canadian band that put out 1 album, recorded another, released one song from it, then just disappeared.

I loved their stuff.

This is from an acoustic set they did for Soul Kitchen. Wish I knew where I could get the rest of this set.

Posting partially so I can find it again.

Atop Mount Hood in Melrose is a tower, which is also an Ingress portal. After capturing the portal for the Enlightened, I found this hawk sitting on a log. The hawk sat there and allowed me to take these photos before flying up to a nearby tree. What a magnificent bird!

We were somewhere around Barstow on the edge of the desert when the drugs began to take hold. I remember saying something like ``I feel a bit lightheaded; maybe you should drive....'' And suddenly there was a terrible roar all around us and the sky was full of what looked like huge bats, all swooping and screeching and diving around the car, which was going about a hundred miles an hour with the top down to Las Vegas. And a voice was screaming: ``Holy Jesus! What are these goddamn animals?''
