On the long shelf life of erroneous geographic factoids

Firwood Lake in Laurelhurst Park, 9 Feb 2025. Olmstedian? Certainly. Designed by an Olmsted? No. Camera: Pentax IQZoom 115G (Espio 115G), Film: Fujicolor 400 A local newsletter I subscribe to had a nice profile on Tryon Creek State Park, the forested canyon in deep SW that I infrequently visit. What caught my eye is they mentioned that Tryon Creek is “Oregon’s only state park within a major…

DONALD JR PUTS IT ALL IN PERSPECTIVE !

Donald Trump Jr:

"If you're in this room right now, you're probably on the FBI list. You're in good company. I am on every list except the Epstein list. We haven't heard anything about that one in a while… How is it that my father could be convicted of 34 crimes, but no one on Epstein's list has even been brought to light? It's almost like they're trying to protect those pedophiles.”

There is nothing to celebrate today. If you are one of the lucky few with today off (as I am), take some time to learn why.

There is no pride in genocide.

As the U.S. celebrates Independence Day, we cannot dismiss the continuous acts of injustice against Black and Indigenous people.

Ever notice how Trump supporters are always overconfident in their beliefs — until they're confronted with facts? That's when their brains melt, and spiral into confusion. That's when they start spewing maga propaganda lies like a good cult follower and speak of violence. That's when you know the brainwashing is complete.

The Mystery Of Plum Island: The Montauk Monster...

For decades, the government has denied ties to Lyme disease despite compelling evidence. The mystery deepens with Plum Island, a secretive research lab linked to theories about biological experiments and the infamous Montauk Monster. 🤔

We keep comparing Luffy to Bugs Bunny but he also embodies another entity that defies order

Gear 5 is basically Luffy throwing all the rules of logic and laws of physics out the window, which is EXACTLY what cartoons do, but you know who else rejects the laws of reality? Eldritch abominations. Lovecraftian horrors. Many times, we are told that Strawhat Luffy will destroy the world or ruin the order of things, which is bad (as long as you're not a slave, oppressed, or disenfranchised). We have seen him upend nations before, but the state of those countries made the hard reset Luffy brings a godsend (see what I did there). To the world government, Luffy is basically Cthulhu, someone they thought long-dead but was actually just sleeping and now he's awake and spreading chaos through the world.

silly one piece headcanon where tiktok existed in canonverse and the heart pirates shared one tiktok account so their fyp is an amalgamation of everyone's preferences which worked out fine until the algorithm redirected them to a luffy edit created by the barto club.

at first, they brushed it off but suddenly there was a collection, cheekily named as 👒. no big deal for the hearts, they respected the strawhats and held luffy in high regard.

until they opened the comment section of each video saved in said collection and they found their account saying stuff like "he's so precious, I love him"; "my sunflower"; "sunshine incarnate"; "cute", etc.

the crew knows one person responsible for the otherwise sappy shenanigan and confronting their captain isn't an issue except the hearts are secretly sending his pictures directly to the strawhats (it was an achievement to hide the entire thing from law) and the latest update that they got was luffy filled an entire album full of law's photos.

Do you think the marines had no idea about the humandrills and so when they pulled up on Kurigina and had to face an army of expertly skilled swordmonkeys they had to reevaluate everything they thought they knew about Hawkeyes.

a Marine writing his report like “unbeknownst to the world government Hawkeyes has apparently been secretly training an army of monkeys to sword fight in his spare time and has proven to be very successful as we lost half our men to them.”

And so now their little Mihawk files, that requires its own filing cabinet, contains the the questions;

Did he teach the monkeys to sword fight or does he control the monkeys like puppets?

How did he teach the monkeys to sword fight?

Some kind of animal control devil fruit?

Hawkeyes can communicate with animals?

Is he actually part hawk? Part monkey???

Marines animal fighting division, when?

Could Garp train dogs to brawl?

Can Garp get his own army of monkeys or steal Mihawk’s? 🥺

ELON MUSK CALLS FOR INVESTIGATION INTO EPSTEIN CLIENT LIST!

Elon Musk Criticizes Lack of Legal Action Against Epstein Clients, Including Bill Gates

Elon Musk criticized the lack of legal action against the clients of Jeffrey Epstein, the convicted sex offender, in a tweet. He wrote: "When is there not one – just one – even *attempted* prosecution of that Epstein (Bill Gates & Reid Hoffman come to mind) client list?"

Musk further emphasized: "Either FBI does their duty or the case for an entire departmental reset or abolishment is strong."

Everyday I become more convinced that Imu is a stunted child and he must be like 130 cm tall:

Just look at their height in comparison to everything else around them.

Rhode Island is a place where the stupidest, most obvious psychos get away with the stupidest, most obvious crimes.

Yes, that’s what they’re calling him now.
