Another Russian shit shed spotted, this time with satellite TV

Testudo 2: Return of the Blyatmobile.

I'm not even gonna try to guess what's under this one. Maybe once we get a picture with more than 7 total pixels, I'll give it a crack, but for the time being, it's just another seethe citadel, this time with 50% more corrugated tin off some poor farmer's roof.

@frogblast-the-ventcore, using this one to answer your ask on this, too.

The Testudo Dining arrangement… • A design named after the ‘Testudo’ (meaning ‘turtle’ in Latin), the ancient Roman battle arrangements where a group of soldiers form a shield-wall/ protective space out of combining individual shields into a single unit/ volume. Here the individual chairs define a more intimate space around the dining table… A design that lends itself to large spaces… • Made of beech wood in Qatar… • #furniture #furnituredesign #design #qatardesign #designinqatar #qatarcreates #designedinqatar #madeinqatar #qatar #dohadesign #doha #thomasmodeen #architectsindependent #finnishdesign #finland #finlanddesign #woodfurniture #experimentalfurniture #originalfurniture #testudo #interiors #turtle #interiordesign #architecturedesigned (at Doha) https://www.instagram.com/p/CnueaMlMokQ/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

At my undergrad university (University of Maryland College Park), there is a bronze statue of our mascot, Testudo, a diamondback terrapin, that students rub for good luck during exams.

Testudo was a gift from the class of 1933. He's been outside McKeldin Library (the main campus library) since 1965. Since the 1970s, students have been rubbing his nose for luck. I think I did it once freshman year.

At least he has a good view of McKeldin Mall.

You know how you can tell where people rub bronze statues by their most polished spots? Either because people think it brings luck or because they’re being pervs or just want to pet the animal?

Well in Odense there’s a statue that’s polished all the way down the middle

And it’s the cutest reason ever. It’s because children use it as a slide

Testudo Turtle Formation - Aluminum Foil Sculpture

For anyone interested in the Russian "Turtle tanks" (A.K.A. Testudo or Blyatmobile), there's an excellent video from The Armourer's Bench on YouTube discussing the 6 potentially unique examples seen so far in Ukraine:

Frog man frog me a frog Make it the cutest that I’ve ever froged What is your favorite frog?

I am a very big fan of the incredibly stunning Boophis bottae

But honestly, my favourite frog may be Plethodontohyla guentheri, which has made a very bold fashion choice and is really nailing it.

And second favourite would then be Rhombophryne testudo for extremely obvious reasons.
