it's oldest mask known, from France

Okay they were worn to represent the spirits of ancestor. I can see that.

I always thought it was a potato pancake.

When there is no internet.

When the numidium brings about the end of this reality and the godhead erases us from existence for being a bunch of ungrateful and degenerate freaks.

I, for one, welcome our new Brass Giant, Akulakhan, to convert all of us into an extension of Dagoth Ur. I hear they provide free medical benefits.

oh wait, maybe its rainwater

Damn zegh, you're making me sad about fossils. You used to just make me happy about them.

Good news! Poached fossils of 3 undiscovered Oviraptorids returned to Mongolia a year or two ago recieved formal description today - Oksoko avarsan, and might resolve a lot of confusion around poorly known species Ingenia/Heyuannia yanshini.

Illustration I made some time ago, uncautiously identifying it as Ingenia/Heyuannia yanshini (the fossils were unstudied at the time, but beautifully preserved)

Oksoko, unlike Ingenia, had only 2 fingers per hand. My drawing ended up being sort of a mish-mash between the two, based mostly on Oksoko (since Ingenia is too fragmentary)

Cringe bad opinion

It's hypocryte at its finest when fahrenheit is considered more precise due to more value between boiling point and freezing point but considering feet&inch easy to visualize compared to cm 1-100 scale. And barrel/gallons? is this medieval time to measure based on non standard container? ml --> L, just multiply it with 1000 and you do fine.

Mussolini's lynching is like.. super satisfying though. I like that they strung his wife up with him.

Hitler's family changed their last names, and sought to distance themselves from him. Mussolini's grand daughter tho? Keeps the last name, goes into politics and spouses his same views. And also gets on twitter fights about how "Mussolini was good, actually".

If my last name was Hitlerini I'd own that'd shit.

Speaking as a neurotic myself hives suck.

Yeah, I got some of that, but in general, life is a lot more managable the past few years, which has also resulted in less stress symptoms. Maybe that's also why I sooo hate the symptoms of acute stress when they *do* re-occur, ugh...

Have some green tea. That works for me.

Fucking three times in 45 minutes, some asswipe tried to run me over IN a pedestrian crossing - one time WITH other pedestrians WITH me, like "i will murder CHILDREN to get you, BICYCLIST!"

At least your condom-suited yobbers ride at decent speeds. Here it's middle-aged men with overpriced bikes riding along like a tortoise blocking me on a shitty three-speed lump of steel as old and rusty as them.

Yeah, I kinda like those dudes with the 100% aerodynamic gear, with the shark-fin-shaped helmets. In the downhills, they just lean over their steering, and turn into speed blurs.

Like now, I'm trying to research door-lock nomenclature, basically. What are door lock components called? ALL I get, ALL I get, are offers to buy high security door locks, prices, prices, prices, buy, buy, buy, ORDER HERE, ORDER NOW, it's depressing...

If you google enough rope to hang yourself you used to get ads for rope and google would only post suicide prevention line if you did it twice. It's been fixed but that was always super funny to me.

While I usually see Venus take a travel across the eastern sky, low horizon to low sky, around dawn-hours, I tend to spot Mars earlier in the evening, around 6-8 maybe, I haven't made sure. I'm now curious how come I never spotted it before, or at least not with such clarity.

But what about Uranus?

It's to far away. You can't see it with the naked eye.

No you.

Be one with Yuri.

FEAR ME BUT FOLLOW!

sounds like u need some Jesus bruh

They tell me the same even tho I graduated from a Catholic school and went all the way to making the Confirmation because the school basically made it mandatory.

Those people are great. they laughs they provide can lift any day. Fedora tippers on the other hand are the absolute worst.

Speaking of, I actually find "you suck at cooking" on Youtube surprisingly helpful at times

"Cooking with dog" is always fun.

lol, the accent, I might give these a few further checks!

if all those people were less stupid, they'd take the time to truly appreciate this whole other world, visible to their naked, stupid eyes, instead of tarding about ufos

Not as exciting as aliens. I knew one fathead that was pointing at something all night thinking it was a UFO. I eventually stopped trying to tell him it was a satellite and went in the house.

I did get myself a sort of light-weight water-proof outdoors-attire though, all black, so I put that shit on, my helmet, aviators (for the wind, and bonus untrustworthyness) and my bicycle gloves if the rain and wind is extra brisk. All that together, I must admit myself, makes me look ridiculously awesome

The chance of being struck by lightning is 1 to 700 000.

If lightning equalled a billion stupid dollars, then congrats, you have a world view where you consider it a fucking privilige to exist in an environment where you slave your wage away, in the slim chance a lightning will strike you, blessing you with the ONE only possible blessing the desired society has to bestow upon you

Super duper, you live in a world where you MIGHT be the one man to invent something truly new, "from your garage", or more likely, inherited the means to conglomerate existing fortunes together. Which one is it? You inventing something brilliant yet?

You can however become a millionaire. Just win a game show. Duh.
