  • A security guard walking down US Highway 101 where there are towering stacks of hollow iron floats from which the iron antisubmarine nets were suspended to protect the US ports during WWII

    Jump

  • I found this :

    SPHERES OF WAR-IN STACKS

    PILED up like a show exhibit of gigantic oranges,

    hollow iron floats are stacked beside US Highway

    101 at Seal Beach, California. In World War II they

    were used to suspend anti-submarine nets to protect

    US ports. At war’s end the navy hauled them out

    of the water, stored them against future contingencies.

    Each weighing 680 lb and 5ft in diameter, they stand

    in three tidy 45ft mountains, each of 8415 grey floats.

    So Seal Beach, assuming this source has it right https://nla.gov.au/nla.obj-484219677

  • Maine Lawmakers Fail to Override Mills' Data Center Ban Veto That Won Applause From Trump-Aligned Group

    Jump

  • That headline: how many negatives are bouncing back and forth? Fails, Override, Ban, Veto...

    Let me see, "The Maine Legislature on Wednesday failed to override Democratic Gov. Janet Mills’ veto of a bill that would have established an 18-month moratorium on the expansion of artificial intelligence data centers in the state."

    As an outsider, took me a minute to realize it was Janet Mills, not some company, Mills Data Center.

    Is Janet Mills a DINO?

  • I found a dandelion

    Jump

  • Yeah those aren't dandelion leaves. If it is salsify, OP, wait until fall, after the first frost, and dig up the roots, they're edible and apparently tasty!

  • Do you rinse your plates and cutlery before putting them in the dishwasher?

    Jump

  • No, just scrape. And put everything in and run it nightly rather than waste water hand washing the separate items I know I'm going to need first thing in the morning. Empty it while the coffeepot is working. Rinse the filter monthly even if it doesn't appear to need cleaning.

  • Billie Eilish on how she's making touring less terrible for the planet

    Jump

  • Here, someone sent me this a couple weeks ago https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Osterfeuer Basically drink for 3 days and make huge bonfires. Ancient spring ritual co-opted by early Christianity bc how would you get anyone to join the Church if they had to give up their bonfire and booze?

  • Singapore: French teen who licked vending machine straw faces jail

    Jump

  • Not saying I agree with anything the Singaporean Authorities do

  • Statuette of a hippo goddess, Egypt, 332-320 BCE

    Jump

  • They wouldn't sag if she were in the water where she belongs. Hippo goddess breasts are buoyant.

  • Singapore: French teen who licked vending machine straw faces jail

    Jump

  • I guess to the authorities, he's going to be the one licked straw that makes 500 other twerpy teens throw out their plans to pull similar pranks.

  • Top 10 countries with the lowest racial diversity

    Jump

  • But unfair, it's always changing! Then again, so are lots of things. Looking at you, Pluto. You'll always be a planet in my heart

  • Nothing is funnier than The Onion taking over Infowars and making rainbow merchandise.

    Jump

  • So, can we get ahold of the cue cards?

  • Thousands more LGBTQ+ Australians can now donate blood after major rule change

    Jump

  • I guess that's why the question at my blood bank has changed over the years from "Have you ever" to "In the last three months have you" (had sex with a man who has sex with men, or been paid for sex, or had an accidental needle stick, whatever).

  • Removed Locked

    Millionaire US big game hunter is trampled to death by elephants

    Jump

  • Well in this case that's exactly why the hunt was 100% successful

  • Removed Locked

    Millionaire US big game hunter is trampled to death by elephants

    Jump

  • While an argument could be made for "horde" because it's a lot of individual animals who would rise as an army against him if they could, the correct word for this kind of evil dragon collection is "hoard."

    Just in case you need to use either word in a serious context

  • Thousands more LGBTQ+ Australians can now donate blood after major rule change

    Jump

  • They do but iirc the tests may not be perfect in a recently infected person

  • Something something vagene...

  • Republican proposes giving Democratic-leaning part of Virginia back to DC after redistricting vote

    Jump

  • Exactly. Let's amend the bill to say that in order not to disenfranchise the ex-Virginians, and because of the additional land and population, The District of Columbia will henceforth be represented by 2 senators and 2 Representatives.
