This story makes me physically ill. The worst of humanity

As an American who has driven several different types of cars on Portuguese streets, I can confirm that most US cars would be a nightmare, if not totally impossible, to drive here

So engrossing! I read it all in one day. Could not put it down. Enjoy!

Its kind of wacky that the percentage of women isn't higher than 43% too though

I'm watching the TV program Fisk, and Melbourne does seem good :)

But they dont look good either

Yeah, I was confused if there was a person involved or what

I loved the show even more than I did GOT

"Yarrell said despite the species’ intelligence, the aquarium had no plans to stop keeping them in captivity." --so sad.

Wow, I didn't realize how beautiful lichen is
