Silver Springs, outside Ocala, FL. "It is the largest artesian spring in the world and the site of the oldest commercial tourist attraction in Florida [...] Its main features are the glass-bottom boat tours on the river, which have operated there, in various forms, since 1878." (Wikipedia)

Wouldn't that be more of a southwest thing anyway 😆? That idiom definitely exists up here! Maybe you said it with a little twang.
A screenshot of Ticketmaster's confirmation of ticket purchase screen. The header reads "You Got 'Em" in all capital letters with a subheader reading "Let the Anticipation Begin." There is a photo of the four members of the band Metric and then the name of the show, "All the Feelings Tour with Metric, Broken Social Scene and Stars," in all capital letters.
Let's goooo 2000s Canadian indie summer !!! #allthefeelingstour
hello and welcome to the political genius exam. here is question one. which is a more compelling message:
- the president is sending armies to occupy cities and kidnap and kill people and your town could be next
- a meal at the cheesecake factory that previously cost $100 now costs $104.9
Multiple friends have caught COVID recently, including some of my more cautious pals. There are a lot of winter germs in crowded places right now, fam. Personally, I never feel that shopping or riding transit unmasked is worth potentially getting sick. You can always renew this practice.

"At the end of the day, it's bigger than me. The things that are going through makes people uncomfortable, imagine how (Palestinians) feel?" he said. "That's the biggest thing. I have no affiliation, no connection, to these people - other than the fact that I am a human being. If you have a heart and you're a human being, and you see what's going on in this world, you check yourself real quick.

Push notification from ESPN, 5:51 PM. Title is in single quotes, 'Call him Superman.' Text reads, "Josh Allen set to play vs. Broncos despite multiple ailments." The Buffalo Bills buffalo logo is on the right side of the push notification.

reddit post from a presumably young person who watched sex and the city and couldn’t get over how much people smoked indoors. “wouldn’t everything smell bad?” they asked
this is a good reminder of how things that are shitty but have been accepted as normal and inevitable can actually turn out to be abnormal and evitable with some science, time, education and political will
Anybody know how I can stop worrying and learn to love the bomb?
So, this thread--particularly @lizthegrey.com's useful explanation of how the relevant databases actually work--is worth reading in response to the Erin in the Morning story that's terrifying our community today.
But I'll add a few broad points about Where We Are and scaremongering.
In the last chapter of Alice’s memoir, “Year of the Tiger,” she wrote her own future obituary.
The wonderful “oracle, storyteller, cyborg, trouble-maker, activist, night owl” we loved so much closed it with:
“Enjoy all of Alice’s good shit, and may you create some good shit as well.”
spoke with the executive director of my local food bank today and got this really incredible line: "if you donate 1 can of green beans, we can give away 1 can of green beans. but if you donate a dollar, we can give away 6 cans of green beans"
just confirming that mine is kinda hopeless (mayflower link made me guffaw)—thanks for doing this! and on top of the map itself, I’m in a first floor (of three) rental

folks can complain about the effectiveness of scheduled orderly mass protest but to think about it another way its the closest thing we have to the opening scene of A Muppet Christmas Carol where all the muppets sing "there goes Mr. Dipshit, there goes Mr. Ass" to Scrooge and it clearly bothered him
The @nytimes.com has a new article on " #ProfoundAutism," featuring the same grievance parents they always feature—and minimal autistic input. Pls counter with our explanation of why autistic kids deserve better representation than parents who resent them.

I just realized like in the last month that you can call your representatives after hours and leave a voicemail instead of potentially reaching a staffer live. so. that's what it took for me to finally start calling my reps. why did no one ever tell me this
The right to speak our minds and to disagree with each other - to disturb, even - is at the very heart of what it means to be a free people. It is not to be denied. Not by violence, not by the abuse of governmental power, nor by acts of corporate cowardice. As a Guild, we stand united in opposition to anyone who uses their power and influence to silence the voices of writers, or anyone who speaks in dissent. If free speech applied only to ideas we like, we needn't have bothered to write it into the Constitution. What we have signed on to - painful as it may be at times - is the freeing agreement to disagree. Shame on those in government who forget this founding truth. As for our employers, our words have made you rich. Silencing us impoverishes the whole world. The WA stands with Jimmy Kimmel and his writers.

#TheMuppetShow will return in 2026 as a Disney+ special from Seth Rogen starring Sabrina Carpenter. The hope is for the special to serve as a backdoor pilot for a new season of the iconic series bit.ly/3VmUmKt
OK folks. The Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices is meeting on Friday to discuss Covid vaccines. If it is possible, I do recommend getting a Covid vaccine before then. I know due to out of pocket costs and prescription requirements in some states it is easier said then done.
there was never going to be a world in which the right didn’t claim the left was celebrating the death of charlie kirk, no matter how respectable anyone tried to be.
Watching Childish Gambino debut Me And Your Mama live at Bonnaroo in 2015. Not the biggest flex compared to other replies but the energy during that song was incredible.
Hey kids, did you know if you pick this up from the cooler and change your mind about buying it, leaving it randomly in the store, it won't go back to the shelf for sale.
It's a part of food safety we should all observe. Don't pickup strange warm dairy products, especially if it that coffemate shit
