They need to put this cyclist's age in the headline: he's 77 years old!
A French cyclist survived for three days after a horrendous 130-foot fall into a ravine, kept alive by the bottles of red wine he had in his shopping bag, police said.

there are breads that i enjoy making myself — any quickbread, sourdough boules and batards, flatbreads, biscuits etc. — but you’ll never catch me making a baguette or croissant at home. i live a short bike ride from three boulangeries!
a big thing i learned about myself during covid is that i just want to buy a goddamned baguette from the store or the bakery, i literally never want to make the damned thing myself
I am late to this but the Listers documentary on YouTube is one of the best things I’ve ever watched
Ha- not quite Edmonton it was Ottawa and Montreal. Little easier to get there from Boston.

Excellent account of the efforts by judges to stop weekend mass removals of people caught up in ICE's attempts to shovel people out of the country without due process.
This time around, Judge Sparkle Sooknanan had a big advantage over Boasberg: She knew what had happened the last time.

That made all the difference.

Hi everyone

I was denied entry, detained, and deported from the USA over the last 48 hours because of my reporting on the Columbia student protests

I arrived back in Melbourne hours ago and had my phone handed back to me upon landing
That’s what I always think. Wait til you see Newfoundland or Winnipeg!!! Sudbury Ontario too - they have a big nickel and nothing stateside can compare. There is also the sourtoe cocktail in the Yukon.

I want to emphasize that I love durian fruit, but also stand by that statement above
You are too kind and forgiving and don’t realize the malfeasance they inflict on us with this Nutella monster. Nutella is awesome but this is an abomination.
