i love this guy 60% of every video is him rolling around on the floor screaming while his camera guy goes “hey….. u ok?” then 5 minutes later he gets up and is like “ok folks, there u have it, the Satan DeathRay Fire Monster actually does cause pain when it bites u. science is great”

To be fair, this is actually a really good way of getting kids to realize that these animals really are dangerous, and he goes through the first aid either on the same video or in a follow up video (if it’s something complicated). IIRC, the whole reason he started doing videos like this was because while he was in Montana or something he saw a lot of Facebook posts about people whose dogs had gotten too close to a porcupine and they didn’t know how to remove the quills, so he (naturally) went into the woods, found a porcupine, quilled himself and filmed himself taking the quills out and explaining what he was doing.

He’s still fucking insane, but, you know, it’s for a good cause

He’s living his best life, his job is getting hurt on camera and educating others on how to be safe. And he clearly loves his job.

At the 1998 Grammy Awards, Pavarotti was too ill to sing Nessun Dorma.
Aretha Franklin filled in on 20 minutes notice.
This is the result.

Not only was the performance done on 20 minutes notice, she had no rehearsal and simply heard Pavarotti’s rehearsal once on a goddamn tape player and just listened, nodded and said she could do it. the most famous opera song in the world, on one of the biggest nights for music in the world, no rehearsal, and she just went out and did it.

that’s talent

Here’s the full thing.

it’s a sham how much the american right-wing talks up how ‘socialism’ would be bad for the US economy. most of the ‘socialist’ policies that are on the table in the USA are only economic ones in the most general sense, that money is a measure of resources and to achieve all goals resources must be invested. By this logic, all policies for anything at any time are about the ‘economy.‘

Such a model frames the cost of reform as “an extra expense” and the cost of business as usual as “nothing.” But it’s not nothing. It’s not the cost of the norm, but the cost of decline– the upkeep of aging structures, current subsides, and current astronomical amounts of cash siphoned away from the system– as profit, much of which doesn’t go back into wages or investments accessible to the ordinary citizen. That stuff isn’t bad for the economy?

Conservatives insist the left wing lives in a fantasy world insulated from the fact that reform projects cost money, that it’s just ‘basic economics’ that you ‘can’t get stuff for free’ and ‘who is gonna pay for all this? people who didn’t ask for it?’… but often discard that extracting larger and larger profits on top of the cost of doing business drains that money from somewhere. You can’t ‘generate value’ entirely for free– it’s not ‘free money.’ And it’s likely the people who shouldered that cost didn’t get to choose.

Why is one form of ‘wanting things for ‘free’/at the expense of others’ prosperity’ considered naive, but another completely ignored as if it’s not even happening? Like it’s just a cost-neutral status quo upon which any further expense would be a burden?

I’m going to try my best not to sound like a commercial here, but Channel A is my favorite party game that is currently out of print and the company is kickstarting funds to do one more print.

It’s a game where you’re given random words and genres, and must mush them together into the title of a brand new anime, and then you have to pitch your frankenstein anime creation to the “Producer” of the round and vote on whose pitch was the best.

It’s extremely fun to play, especially with friends who are all anime/manga fans, but I’ve only been able to play it on bootleg copies I have to print myself

And I want new copies of the game so please consider pledging to it since there’s only like 2 days left on the campaign and I only just heard about it right now

IT’S A GOOD GAME, BRENT

So they found this adorable little dinosaur called Anchiornis

See those feathers? The skeleton they found was so well-preserved that scientists were able to examine the pigment cells in the feathers and compare them to those of modern day birds.

And they were able to do this with such accuracy that they know the coloration of this dinosaur. In life it looked something like this.

It just baffles me that we know the color patterns of an animal that has been dead for 161 million years

They found a prehistoric chicken that wears adidas swear pants my god
