I occasionally take pictures, sometimes of cats or moss, and I spend a lot of time professionally thinking about what things mean.

There are few things I love more than a bonkers ass door surround on a residential entrance. Going hard AF just for the love of the game.

Mole chimichanga with steak. Nice to have a solid Mexican place close to home. (Agaves in Lee, MA)

Surprising find near the trap: a wooden oar with incised decoration that had been brought up the 4500-ft-tall mountain. (Pic of it and a cute axe-shaped brooch in link.)🏺🧪
Archaeologists discover 1,500-year-old reindeer trap and other artifacts 'melting out of the ice' in Norway's mountains
The well-preserved reindeer trap may be unique in Europe.

This is true! "Diot" was a diminutive of "Dionisia" (a forerunner of "Denise"), and "Coke" was a variant of "Cook," so a modern version of "Diot Coke" might be "Niecy Nosh."
I’m sorry I just found out that in 1379, as in, 650 years ago, a baby girl was born in Yorkshire and named Diot Coke
history is a fucking joke lmao

I think it’s pretty obviously a data analysis story, but that will take (a little bit of) time to pull together. Just the to/from/cc relationships will identify the various circles and which threads to pull next. There will be nodes that are clear crossovers (<cough> Krauss) btwn criminal & social.
I actually think this is a fair point and it’s hard to know precisely what you’d publish out of these emails. It’s just maddening in comparison to the NYT’s willingness to absolutely obsess over scurrilous rumors about Biden dementia, Clinton email non-scandals, etc.
The emails that you’re seeing now are news in themselves, but that’s because of how they’re coming out—a congressional committee released them—& the context in which they’re being viewed. A guy emailing a reporter talking about old girlfriends or saying someone is “dirty” is not a whole news story.

If a Brit says they "need to spend a penny" they mean they have to go to the bathroom, because the first pay toilets in the world were unveiled in 1851 at the Great Exhibition, cost a penny, were called "Monkey Closets" & were visited 827,280 times during the exhibition.
They generated £1000/year.

Good to see Railway Mania referenced.

Luxurious duck-shaped vessel carved from a single piece of rock crystal around 3,500 years ago!
From Bronze Age Mycenae, it is said to be an exquisite example of imported Minoan stoneworking. Probably used to hold oils or cosmetics.

I had to order pasta a few weeks ago from Cento to get the Os to make homemade spaghetti-os because no stores have them. (I got 4 packages to justify the shipping cost, so I am set for a couple of years, now.)
