Today is National Coffee Day, which is all the reason we need to re-share this beautiful ceramic coffee pot by William De Morgan. #NationalCoffeeDay #Coffee

A ceramic teapot with a tall, gourd-shaped body, a curved spout, and handle. It features decorative red patterns with floral and abstract designs on a white background.

Being in your 50s is confusing. On paper, I’m 55. At a concert, I’m 24. After 8/9 PM, I’m 88. Getting up off the floor makes me 115. But when the'80s music starts playing, I’m 17 all over again.

One reason so many people mistake emotion for thought may be that the language surrounding public life has shifted away from evidence, logic, and verification—and toward feeling, belief, and emotional instinct. Research on millions of books shows that this reversal accelerated after 2007.

This pup found a stick shaped like an old timey pipe earlier today and has already solved three mysteries. 13/10

a brown wire-haired pup stands on a wooden deck in a grassy yard. he looks at us with golden eyes and his right ear flipped inside out. he has a pipe-shaped stick in his mouth, giving him the appearance of a sophisticated and dapper gentleman. just give him a deerstalker cap and a cloak, and he'd give Sherlock Holmes a run for his money.

Buttigieg: We didn't know it, but we've all been trusting our lives to the restraint of whoever the president might be. And now we have a president who is completely unrestrained. And so the only answer to that is a functioning Congress. It turns out we do not have a functioning Congress.

For the past 30-40 years, society sold us the lie that you could just "individual responsibility" your way out of having to do politics. But politics is just decisions about how we organize society, and "not doing politics" is the same thing as giving up your voice.

When it's hot outside and you burn easily so you're staying inside in the dark with your skull.

We are looking at an oil painting of a pale looking gentleman with an orange beard. He is wearing a full black outfit including what looks like a dark fur lined robe with caned shoulders. He is holding a book in one hand and his other hand is resting on a skull.

A medieval monk spent a decade infiltrating a rival monastery in order to steal relics for his own? Surely faking the relics would have been quicker & cheaper 😀 (see J. Hašek's short story The Ears of San Martin Ildefons, where saint's ears look miraculously refreshed after each local execution)

In 866 a monk from the monastery of St Foy spent a decade infiltrating a rival monastery, Conques, in order to get access to and then steal relics for his own brethren.

An essential development over the past decade-plus is that the ignorant went from feeling chastened when their ignorance was revealed to banding together and deciding that, actually, they were right. They might disagree at times, but they agreed that ignorance itself was an indicator of trust.

Fantastic anti war song + surrealist AI video in Russian: "I'm Happy!" Singer sounds like a hard rock version of Vladimir Vysotsky. Poignant lyrics are a mordant satire of today's Russian reality. Deserves a wider audience. Don't know anything about the author(s). www.youtube.com/watch?v=Htag...
