A new mural has appeared in Ternopil, dedicated to children killed in Russia’s attack.
The artwork, showing a child shielding her toys from a Russian missile, was created by artist Andriy Yermolenko. He described it as “a cry for help to the global community.”

Every day I watched workers climb bamboo scaffolding to work on the high rises they were building around us. I wondered if this might be part of the problem.

Phew, glad I got it last night.
It appears the #Lego Ro Laren Shuttlepod bonus gift is now fully sold out and unlikely to return to stock, as it was a "while supplies last" item.
The #StarTrek Enterprise-D set is available on backorder with expected shipping in February.

I was in my teens and 20s and my friends were dropping like flies. I remember, even if many do not, and I love Matthew for all of the boys I loved who did not make it.
Throughout my 20s, I wore an AIDS awareness red ribbon pretty much everyday.
My friends were dying. It’s what we did.
AIDS is not over.
630,000 people died of it last year.
1 December is #WorldAIDSDay.

POS attacked a woman. Such a manly guy, this Sergeant Frink.
Racist Marine Sergeant retains his position after assaulting two female hotel employees after they told him there were no available rooms. The first woman he assaulted was under 5ft tall; the other one took no shit and knocked him out with a lamp, so kudos to her.

In a battle for my soul between the Pope and Peter Thiel, I know who I'm going with. And I'm Jewish.
In newly leaked audio, Peter Thiel admits he urged JD Vance to ignore Pope Leo XIV on moral questions — including the ethical development of AI.
He goes even further, branding Leo “the woke American pope” and suggesting he’s a tool of the Antichrist.

Witkoff Advised Russia on How to Pitch Ukraine Plan to Trump

Not wearing heels, stockings and a dress to fly. Really hard to wear a kneeboard and messes with the rudder.
A roundtrip LAX-JFK flight in the late 60s was around $3K in today’s dollars. The people who wore suits on those flights were the people who regularly wore suits. Complaining about informally-dressed fliers is complaining that the wrong sorts of people are flying today.
