I remember on September 11th 2002, a teacher came in late for our class and said, "One year ago, I had to deliver the news that the twin towers had been attacked. Unfortunately, today I have some equally terrible news." The news was that the local Beefeater restaurant was on fire.

This Finnish guy has been teaching himself Sumerian, and sent a cuneiform tablet to the British Museum to check his progress. They just emailed him that they've sent him something in the post. I'm now thrilled and excited for a total stranger! Clay tablet mail! www.reddit.com/r/Cuneiform/...

Three panel comic. Panel 1: an old man lies in a hospice bed, glancing out the window as day breaks. There is a woman asleep on a small couch next to him. The man thinks to himself, “dang, that was stressful. Wouldn’t mind a chill one next time.” Panel 2: the cycle of death and rebirth continues on, represented by the samsara wheel of life, along with splash text which reads: REINCARNATE-O! Panel 3: a solitary duck swims peacefully along the water. It thinks to itself, “nice”

I don't know why everyone is in such a frenzy to see The Odyssey in 70mm. That's only like seven centimeters big. I'd rather see it on a movie screen thank you very much.

So glad I will get to experience watching The Odyssey as someone who doesn’t care that it’s a poem or whatever, you won’t catch me caring about its faithfulness, I will simply be whispering to the person next to me “that’s the horse” when the Big Wooden Horse appears

The new VERY hagriographic Michael Jackson biopic starring MJ's nephew is out at the end of the month. But back in 2004 an unauthorised and EQUALLY flattering biopic was made in Canada. Here is a clip and I promise you have NO idea where it's going. I haven't done a single edit here.

got this ad on reddit and yeah thank you AI, this is absolutely my wildest fantasy. cant wait to live this thrilling dream at last
AI fantasy image of 50-something-year-old guy with Thing from Addams Family on his shoulder, but if Thing had four fingers instead of five. Unclear whether Thing is just hanging out like a parrot sidekick to a pirate, or if its placement on the man's shoulder suggests an intimacy, possibly even an erotic component. Also the man has an American flag lapel pin, suggesting he may be a senator or something? The best i can offer is that they are both former veterans and Thing lost a finger (roughly ten percent of its body, by weight) in the Iraq War, and now the man has ridden his veteran story to victory in the political sphere, simultaneously trying to appease Thing as a result of an old promise made to "make sure he's taken care of, after all this over, if we both get out alive" and desperately hoping no one ever uncovers the truth, that he and Thing, alone in the desert and lacking their normal choice of companionship, may have idled away some aroused hours with - you guessed it, say it with me now - "Hand Stuff"

I have a book recommendation, if you're interested: "Why Can't I Just Enjoy Things" by Pierre Novellie. He's a comedian who was diagnosed with ASD in his thirties and he writes about all sorts of things that started fitting into place for him. Really informative and funny.
