Here’s how to do the S.O.S. hand signal

1️⃣ Hold one hand up, palm facing out (like you’re waving)
2️⃣ Tuck your thumb into your palm
3️⃣ Fold your fingers down over your thumb, like you’re trapping it

The signal can be anywhere by anyone. #WorldDayAgainstTrafficking

Why does it seem like there are once in a hundred year eclipses every two or three years?
On August 2, 2027, a rare and breathtaking phenomenon will unfold—a total solar eclipse lasting six minutes, an event that occurs only once every century. For a short time, the Moon will completely obscure the Sun, plunging several regions into temporary darkness.

I want some communal joy. Can y’all share a smell or scent that reminds you of a pleasant memory?

I’ll go first—whenever I smell wood, I think of playing with my cousins down South.

Cannot emphasize this enough.

On the whole, police don’t solve crimes for shit, and they don’t prevent crimes for shit. They are actively bad at both. The average Law & Order fan would be stunned to tears after following around real cops for a day.

Surf girls of Bangladesh. The girls had been working as street vendors, but began taking surfing and lifeguarding lessons. Despite criticism from the community, they quickly proved they had great talent #WomensArt

Here it is, your #BlueSky #Bike Content of the Day (Century?) for Friday, 7/18/25. I have now seen the greatest ever bike that ever was a bike, and my life will not be complete unless I get to ride it.
Very sad I couldn’t be at Readercon this weekend *but* am consoled by the fact that Len and I got to visit the most delightful museum of Gilded Age fairgrounds in Paris & we got to ride the last Velocipede carousel in the world (human powered bike carousel) from 1897!!!

Pony Express memorial, Marysville, #Kansas.
Using a relay system of fast horses, the #PonyExpress enabled mail delivery from New York to San Francisco in 10 days. Made obsolete by the telegraph after only 18 months (1860-61).
