Perhaps the most dangerous hunting accidents in the Middle Ages weren't accidents at all: they were actually instances of killer rabbits hunting humans. All people from emperor to lowly peasants feared these rabbits, especially the killer Rabbit of Caerbannog (from Monty Python😊).🧵7/7

A rabbit is reloading a crossbow in the left side of the image while another rabbit on the right side of the image is carrying away a human that has been hunted. The human is hanging upside-down from a staff that is being held over the rabbit's shoulder. In the centre is a human hiding in a small tree, seemingly hoping that he won't be killed. Beneath his is another, smaller rabbit that is looking up at him in the tree.
Ref: Roman d’Alexandre, Bodleian Library, MS. Bodl. 264 (14th century).

I've always assumed the stealth models were based on this National Geographic illustration from 1981.

IDK, man. People offer me beverages at interviews. In earlier days, not that long ago, interviewers smoked like chimneys and drank coffee like it was going out of style. Interviews take place in offices where people do things, and they act like they are in the office doing things.

Cool books like this were the staple of the GenX school library. Along with books about the future that didn't quite happen...home robots and superhighways with self driving cars. And a hardbound collection of books about Toho monster movies, for some reason.

A friend of mine works in AI and thinks bad things are about to happen. He sold his home and moved his family out the country. He said that if you own a home in a walkable San Francisco neighborhood near a taqueria with good veggie options, you should sell your home for super cheap right now.

I ran across this screenshot from "Charlie Brown's First Kiss" today, which I haven't seen since the universe was less than half it's present size, and I'm struck not so much by CB's goofiness (dude can't get out of his own way), but by how much 8yo TLRHG Heather is channeling her inner princess.

I had to look up this meme, and I still don't understand it. Dude is 8. Also: Homecoming King. Where he has such a good time dancing which the whole homecoming court he develops amnesia? CB's biggest problem is clearly CB. (Also, the meme mischaracterizes Heather, TLRHG).

Charlie Brown and Heather, The Little Red Haired Girl, in "It's Your First Kiss, Charlie Brown".

Where they are clearly 8.

Dolly Parton rose from poverty to stardom. She gave $500 to every student in her hometown who finished high school; she built hospitals & bald eagle preserves; her Imagination Library has gifted 300 million books to children. Roger Ebert met her and came away thinking she was a literal angel. RIP.

“In Dallas for the premier of '9 to 5', I had an uncanny experience, and on the plane home to Chicago I confessed it to Siskel: I had been granted a private half hour with Dolly Parton, and as we spoke I was filled with a strange ethereal grace. This was not spiritual, nor was it sexual. It was healing and comforting. Gene listened and said, "Roger, I felt the exact same thing during my interview with her." We looked at each other. What did this mean? Neither one of us ever felt that feeling again. From time to time we would refer to it in wonder.”
