I can think of ways to carry that sort of thing that aren’t so gross. There’s no removable on non-permeable lining. And how do you sit down?

@dieworkwear.bsky.social Any idea if a ‘poachers pocket’ is a vestigial feature, or the purpose has been lost? I have an old Woolrich jacket with one I can’t imagine would be suitable for game. The pocket goes all the way up to the hem of the shoulder, which provides more questions than answers.

Fantastic bit from the BBC obit of London Zoo’s Desmond Morris, who encouraged primates in art, and gave a paintbrushes to chimpanzee. Morris: ‘Picasso had one of these paintings, and was very excited about it, and when a journalist asked him what did he think about apes painting, Picasso bit him.’

Obviously this is impossible because Alan Moore looks like he's genetically a wizard, it's simply impossible to imagine what he would look like as a schoolboy oh there he is.

I've worn really distinctive clothing for years but in my 60s I just felt I wanted to look normal. I gave a dozen boxes of clothes to the local charity shop and now I keep seeing people in my old clothes; I realised I have looked like a twat for years.

@sorenbowie.bsky.social you might be way past caring, but Cracked hasn’t shown up in my timeline for years and the first time it has done since I don’t know when it looks like it was written by AI.

Trolley problem solution.

"Slip the switch" by flipping it while the trolley's front wheels have passed through, but before the back wheels do. This will cause a controlled derailment bringing the trolley to a safe halt.

I don’t know if it’s the same with the Danish original, but watching the English version of Department Q feels uncannily like listening to Department of Midnight.

Weirdly, I have the same set of feelings for a movie I saw under the title of Le Grande Bleu, as it is one of the greatest movies of all time, but I often confuse it for The Deep Blue Sea, leading to massive disappointment.

Chocolate, but in the chocolate there’s lumps of caramel, and in the caramel there’s lumps of salt. What a pitch meeting.

Opinion | How to Fix America’s Two-Party Problem Proportional representation could help restore American democracy.

America appears to be eight words of federal law away from being a multimember proportionally representative democracy. Most of them aren’t even very long words.
