Mfw when I write a "combustive portrait of America"
Four panels from the comic 'Achewood'. Roast beef, a cat, wears an expression of increasing resolve at the wheel of a car. Finally, in the last panel, he exclaims, "I DON'T KNOW WHO YOU ARE AMERICA BUT I'M COMIN' TO FIND YOU!"

Land and story have since filed a restraining order
Text from greatmotherconference.org: "The Great Mother Conference is an annual retreat founded by Robert Bly in 1975. Since its founding year, it has brought together poets, thinkers, artists, dreamers, doers, musicians, ecologists, singers, journalists, activists, and everything in between and far beyond for a gathering designed to stir a revolution of the heart, an interrogation into mystery, and a wild-eyed courtship of land and story unlike any other."

lmao come the fuck on
Excerpt from an article in The Independent: "A 1923 medical examination, which was uncovered in 2015, showed that he did have an undescended testicle, giving unsuspected credence to the derogatory wartime song about him. Alex J Kay, a historian at the University of Potsdam, who specialises in Nazi Germany told the documentary that this could help explain his “highly unusual and almost complete devotion to politics in his life”."

Our borders and parochial rivalries truly seem meaningless when you consider the millions of spiders that scheme beneath the earth
ABC News headline: "Massive spider web on Greece-Albania border might be world's largest" The lede reads, "Scientists have discovered what might be the largest spider web in the world, found in a cave straddling the border of Greece and Albania"

Very funny thing to say after devoting 6 decades to a different animal

lmao just looked up the review, what an unwitting endorsement
Excerpt from an article in 'The Oregonian' reading: "The final showdown is like the Shootout at the O.K. Corral, if the O.K. Corral were a home improvement store filled with all manner of flesh-ripping power tools. Only in its denouement does "The Equalizer" tip its cap to the 1980s TV series that inspired it, a fact for which Edward Woodward fans can only be glad. -- Marc Mohan, Special to The Oregonian"

The classic Neanderthal Wikipedia article discussion humblebrag
Excerpt from a comment on the talk page for the Wikipedia article "Neanderthal" entitled "1 inch height variation range within each gender....really???" It reads: "Even if they're just Homo n., but especially if they're Homo sapiens n. ---- I call b.s. Since, forget people from Guinness records or tv or whatever, even the small subset of Homo sapiens girls I've personally dated has a height range of 19 inches --- 4ft. 9in. to 6ft. 4in. (same ethnicity, same city btw). I daresay such a small variation is therefore impossible. Hell, even a single skeleton's height cannot be estimated to such a small range. "

Excerpt from Wikipedia under the heading "Future tense" reading: "A 2013 study found that those who speak "futureless" languages with no grammatical marking of the future tense save more, retire with more wealth, smoke less, practice safer sex, and are less obese than those who do not."

Oh no
Post on r/namenerds entitled "Feelings on the name Slevin..be nice:/" It reads: "So for anyone who remembers the movie ‘Lucky Number Slevin’ from 2001- that is where my partner got the name from for our baby boy coming late september. i’m genuinely curious how the public feels about it, my parents don’t seem to like it BUT it carry’s on with the different names i & my daughter already have- La’Rae and Zyla. i like unique names, but also find boy names a little more difficult. Dad’s name and big sisters name both have a Y in them, so we’ve also talked of spelling it like Slevyn. Thoughts? Help?"
