I just love sharing this~ Instead of scrapping two old engines, a railroad made an event of killing two people near the scene of crashing them together. I know engineering and physics aren't what they are today, but all the force had to go somewhere, DUH

Panel 3: slight closeup on the TV. the pink blob on it says “you are a cutie!” And has it’s eyes closed

PANEL 1: A GRIZZLED MAN pacing in a grey hallway on a spaceship. He's wearing a boiler suit and holding a knife.
GM: NOW I KNOW ONE OF YOU BASTARDS IS A SECRET "ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE" SENT HERE TO KILL THE REST OF US.
GM: AND *WE AIN'T LEAVING THIS ROOM* UNTIL WE FIND HIM…AND KILL 'EM!

PANEL 2: Three more CREWMEN respond.
CREWMAN 2: I- I TOLD YOU SIR, I'M A HUMAN! FLESH AND BLOOD!
CREWMAN 3: ME TOO! I SWEAR!
CREWMAN 4: HEY, HOW DO WE KNOW *YOU* AIN'T IT?

PANEL 3: Back on the GRIZZLED MAN, who pricks his arm with knife, dripping a small amount of blood.
GM: PLEASE.
GM: HOW ABOUT THE NEW GUY. YOU'RE AWFULLY QUIET.

PANEL 4: Just to the right of CREWMAN 3, a COMPUTER MONITOR is on the table, with a pixelated emoticon smiley face on it.
COMPUTER: Hello there! It seems like you're looking for who the computer might be – I bet I can help! Let's all take a look at the facts together.

If you ever wondered why visible light is those particular wavelengths, it's because life evolved to see in the narrow range where water is transparent

“When our father opened this coffeehouse, he never imagined it’d become the heart of this town’s literary community, a haven for writers, poets, and artists.”

“If he’d known that, he wouldn’t have opened it!”

“That’s true. Cause you people are broke.”

“And now we’re out of business!”

Everyone booed. “Sorry,” said the middler-aged man, “but it’s true and we all know it. The most valuable thing about this place is the real estate it stands on. That’s why we’ve gathered the whole town here tonight, our last night of operations, to say a fond farewell to Signor Bigello’s.”

“And then we’re gonna sell the property and all the fixtures! It’s what Papa would’ve wanted!”

“It sure is. Who wants to come up and say a few words?”

Cameras, including TV cameras, rose to attention as speakers lined up at the counter. “This is it,” said Carcosa. “On my signal, Bart.”

this is a bit of an obsession of mine especially here in charlottesville. the cost of commercial real estate is prohibitive if you want to experiment and the city seems categorically opposed to small lots and small units that could allow people to start businesses without a huge capital investment

How to visit an art museum with someone who isn't used to visiting art museums:

Two social media posts by @pan_juho (Translated from Japanese):

"I love going to art museums, but when I go with someone who's not used to them, if I say, 'If you were a great thief, tell me later which one you'd steal,' they end up looking the exhibits pretty seriously, and that makes me happy.

"Whether you steal something you like or something that seems valuable -> it opens up endless conversation based on what vou liked about it or where you saw value in it, so it's also great as an easy icebreaker for chats after visiting the museum."

The article mentions the area was once home to dozens of strawberry farms owned by Japanese immigrant families who were dispossessed of their land during their WWII internment. It fails to mention that Freeman's grandfather founded the Anti-Japanese League that advocated for internment. Weird.

Knowing people who are close to the issue, this seems more like a simple case of deferred maintenance and austerity politics. I’m sure the designation would have some efect, but short-term penny pinching leading to avoidable crises later on was a pattern of behavior under previous SPR leadership

I was looking through old photos and found this Accidental Renaissance Painting of the cats

Three different colored cats are hanging around an armchair. their poses are reminiscent of the dramatic, sometimes contorted postures in classical art, but especially attributed to paintings from the Renaissance where these postures convey drama and movement. An orange cat is crouching beneath the chair, his head thrown back dramatically into shadow. Above, on the seat of the chair, a brown striped tabby cat reaches his paw down towards the orange cat, peering at him. Also on the seat but sat stoically on his haunches is a white and brown tabby, gazing away over his two brothers, tail draped down over the side of the chair. The composition of their poses is circular and draws the eye around, and suggests some sort of mythic art as was popular in the Renaissance as well.
