i fully agree with this theory and in my actual field, british architectural history, The Problem is that Salisbury Cathedral is built on top of a lake and no i am not exaggerating
between this and the FSO Safer (another ship at serious risk of exploding) I’m convinced every field has its “yeah, this is the problem that keeps me up at night” and I’m on a quest to learn about all of them
yes yes we all know about the Edmund Fitzgerald, rest her soul, but did you know about the ship laden with explosives that sank in the mouth of the Thames in 1944 and could explode at any minute and which attempts to disarm keep failing

A bunch of folks have asked me what this looks like in local currency terms. Here's the chart.

It's a similar story: The performance of the U.S. stock market during the Trump presidency is... ~~meh~~

I really like the way Bluesky runs out of posts. “You have scrolled too far” it says, sonorously, like an anchorite hermit on a pole in the desert, judging one’s works. “Go home. Stop scrolling. lol”.

This is quite possibly the coolest thing I've ever seen
I get that the news cycle is packed right now, but I just heard from a colleague at the Smithsonian that this is fully a GIANT SQUID BEING EATEN BY A SPERM WHALE and it’s possibly the first ever confirmed video according to a friend at NOAA

Watched The Prestige this weekend. Hugh Jackman’s character commissions a machine which duplicates whatever is put into it perfectly, but rather than putting gold bars into it he puts in:

(A) a hat, repeatedly
(B) One (1) cat
(C) himself, dozens of times, killing himself each time.

Is he stupid?!

this is, hands down, the best video I've seen on men's influencer content and it's not close either

Target had its third straight quarter of slumping sales.

Their stock is in the tank.

Their CEO has resigned.

It all started when they scrapped their DEI initiatives to appease Trump.

They thought hate would make them profitable.

They were wrong.

@harkaway.bsky.social Have you seen Andor, yet? I feel like a very well written science fiction espionage/revolutionary/counter revolutionary story would be right up your alley.

I’ve known Robert Prevost for years as one of the main figures in online TMNT fandom, where no one has a bad word to say about him. He probably won’t have as much time to contribute to Turtles wikis with his new gig but I though his choice of “Pope Leo” was a lovely nod to the community

African Elephants are my favorite land animal species, by far. During yesterday’s earthquake, my babies at the San Diego Zoo reacted to the quake, immediately protective of their most-vulnerable Community members. Humans could learn SO much from these beauties, if we’d just humble ourselves. 🐘🐘

The unexpected sound of a #porcupine asking for food is … polite. Despite their spiky defense, porcupines are gentle herbivores and they’re surprisingly vocal. It’s common they chatter or hum when they’re hungry, especially in human care
