Please, please stop referring to disabled people as “the disabled”. Or “the mentally ill”. Or “the diabetic”. It’s an archaic grammatical choice that stems from—you guessed it—eugenics. Dehumanization. It’s automatic distance and othering.

Take a break from being depressed that everything you love is being destroyed by slop for a moment and let me tell you about the beautiful symbiotic relationship between graffiti writers, train yard workers, and model train enthusiasts.

The cover page of understanding comics, the invisible art. #artist it’s brightly coloured and has some reflection on it as it is a badly taken photograph.

Stay Trim Gum (1988-2000): A line of chiclet-style chewing gum engineered as a weight-loss aid. It contained Phenylpropanolamine or "PPA", an appetite suppressant. It was caffeine-free and benzocaine-free, and used the tagline "Chew To Lose!" Available in cinnamon, peppermint, and spearmint
A print ad for Stay Trim, featuring the remnants of an absolutely demolished ice cream sundae in a glass sundae dish, sitting on a marble counter next to a cherry stem. The copy reads "By the time your diet pill starts working it may be too late."

The answer to all the conspiracy theories about No.10 North is: it was an existing high-security government building and painting some doors / putting up some signs is cheap and quick. But fact-checking someone who is into a conspiracy theory is like chucking a thimble of water on a brush fire.

Do you want to know how popular school vouchers are? They have never won on a ballot. Not once. In any state. Ever. The only way states are able pass a school voucher scheme is behind closed doors. Legislatively. The people would never approve their tax dollars going to private religious schools.

As soon as I saw that SpaceX was putting out bonds, I was confused. Who would buy those? Bonds are for cautious investors. And now I know. It was bond traders who apparently know less about than the bond market than I do. And the entire extent of my knowledge is "bonds are for cautious investors."
