Illustrations from Albert Robida’s La vie électrique (1890). While the flying cars have not (yet) come to pass, Robida's imagining of life 60 years in the future includes many prescient visions, such as a proto Zoom, Netflix, hyperloop + smart doorbell: publicdomainreview.org/collection/a...
a soft looking and somewhat worn felt swan with a big beak and trailing feathers
thinking about this 1500 year old plush swan made of reindeer wool
Rats jumping off a sinking ship
Was inside an Apple Store getting my screen protector replaced when they made the announcement that Tim Cook is stepping down
two images of the human body's circulatory system. One of them with good cable management
The human circulatory system, before and after proper cable management.
Very interesting. I somewhat agree. There were things that were really good and some things that were really bad
how is this literally happening in real life
Everytime I learn more about software I am more surprised that the entire world is not on fire, all the time.
This is a humiliating defeat
4chan hosting one of the world’s most robust online trans communities is like how Stonewall was a front for the mob,
For years I've been looking for the right guest to do a pod on this. The car-sales model that is dictated by law in the US -- you must go to a dealership & suffer for hours in order to buy one -- is one of the most nakedly anti-social special interest giveaways in history. Needs to be killed dead.
The Edmonds-based travel writer and TV personality says: “A new tax on fat paychecks like mine was just signed into law in my home state — and I like it.”

I got more kidneys than I know what to do with
I curse myself every day that I was 14 in 2007 and didn’t get to see them live then. I’ve listened to Alive 2007 at least once a month for like 15 years
If Daft Punk end up touring again, there is no amount of money I wouldn’t spend to see them. I would sell my kidneys
I also can’t stand the Last Jedi for non-chud reasons and I don’t understand the people who pretend like it’s some misunderstood masterpiece. It’s just a bad movie! You don’t have to pretend to like it just because a bunch of morons also hate it
It’s children like this who are sacrificed daily at the altar of ‘But I didn’t have a bad time!’ and ‘I actually would have wanted to be homeschooled!’
