There are videos floating online, there was some sort of verbal altercation followed by this guy getting out of the car and hurling the cyclist to the ground by the neck.
Couldn’t tell you who started the argument but the physical attack was certainly unprovoked and escalatory.
Enough already, she’s already got the job, you don’t have to keep selling her.
Hey, finally a situation where I can unironically say America first.
You did order it off Amazon, what did you expect?
Stun religious scholars with this one weird trick.
Captain Pikecard?
Wow, Nny in the wild, I haven’t read the comics in years.
Why does he have Shrek ears, though?
Oh we used to dream of having broken glass and vinegar. Would’ve been downright pleasant. All we had were three seashells.
It’s pretty crazy, my mediocre state university had an all in (tuition, housing, food, books, etc) cost of $17k/year when I went 20 years ago and it’s up to $42k/year now. And that’s the in state price, out of state would be $60k/year, though I can’t imagine who would pay that.
Between financial aid and internships I came out of college with less than $20k in student loan debt. It’d be far worse these days.
I couldn’t tell you anything about the campaign but I wasted countless hours doing multi player matches with my brother, mostly the beach invasion map. I remember it being fun times but I’m sure it wouldn’t hold up if I fired it up now.

Saw several of these guys in a koi pond while in vacation, bonus shot of a tadpole!

Found this one outside while on vacation last week. Big but relatively docile.
Double bun! I was in the backyard with my son and these two popped out of the brush nearby to graze.
Caught this one having a good sun bath.
Saw these guys on my commute home, snapped it as I was walking so apologies for the meh focus.
Unfortunately a picture through a window screen, but I snapped a picture of this squirrel chomping on a bone whilst sitting on my deck railing.
A robin took up an preexisting nest on our porch and I’ve been snapping pictures when the momma is away.
The Sega Channel was an online game service developed by Sega for the Sega Genesis video game console, serving as a content delivery system. Launched on December 14, 1994, the Sega Channel was provided to the public by TCI and Time Warner Cable through cable television services by way of coaxial cable.
By June 1994, 21 cable companies had signed up to carry the Sega Channel service. US fees varied depending on location, but were approximately $15 monthly, plus a $25 activation fee, which included the adapter. The Sega Channel expanded into Canada in late 1995, with an approximately $19 monthly fee.
The service would go on to garner as many as 250,000 subscribers; however, Sega had anticipated having over one million subscribers by the end of its first year, and had made the service available to over 20 million households.
In late November of 1997 it was announced that the Sega Channel would be shut down on June 30, 1998, but it ended up staying on for another month, finally being discontinued on July 31, 1998.
We had this when I was a kid. It came strangely late in the console's life, but it was cool. This was before cable modems were a household norm and it felt like the future in a way that console gaming didn't recapture for another couple generations. In retrospect that monthly fee was over $30 adjusted for inflation and it's wild that my parents were actually willing to pay that.
Nuclear testing at Bikini Atoll consisted of the detonation of 23 (or 24) nuclear weapons by the United States between 1946 and 1958 on Bikini Atoll in the Marshall Islands. Tests occurred at 7 test sites on the reef itself, on the sea, in the air, and underwater. The test weapons produced a combined yield of about 77–78.6 Mt of TNT in explosive power.
Authorities had promised the Bikini Atoll's residents that they would be able to return home after the nuclear tests. A majority of the island's family heads agreed to leave the island, and most of the residents were moved to the Rongerik Atoll and later to Kili Island. Both locations proved unsuitable to sustaining life, and the United States provides residents with on-going aid. Despite the promises made by authorities, these and further nuclear tests (Redwing in 1956 and Hardtack in 1958) rendered Bikini unfit for habitation, contaminating the soil and water, making subsistence farming and fishing too dangerous.
The female population of the Marshall Islands have a sixty times greater cervical cancer mortality than a comparable mainland United States population. The Islands populations also have a five times greater likelihood of breast or gastrointestinal mortality, and lung cancer mortality is three times higher than the mainland population. The male population on the Marshall Islands' lung cancer mortality is four times greater than the overall United States rates, and the oral cancer rates are ten times greater.
I watched a documentary on it some years back, it's fascinating and horrifying how cavalier these tests were.
