It was on this date, exactly one year ago that I witnessed the maw of the unfathomable blackness slowly eat the Sun. Only to wretch forth the orb of life again to bring renewal and warmth to the world once again.

I sit here, mouth agape (just like on that day) thinking about what I experienced. The land and I were changed forever. Wake each morning children of the sun and give thanks for the dawn.

Trump is making some kind of special shut down announcement Saturday. Coincidence? I think not.

For those of you who want to brush up on their maths:

It's free! Just quickly need to make an account. Very nice layout and a great way to refresh your skills or learn something new.

Wow, this is a really interesting correlation: feelings and reactions of revulsion and political ideology.

Another long-ish article from The Atlantic but they dumb it down, for which I am grateful. Was thinking of putting this in the USA Politics thread but went with Science instead.

REALLY REALLY LATE EDIT:
Fits in with the link in QT's post referring to embedded/entrenched belief systems:

uh, guys? Is this a precursor to the looming zombie apocalypse? I mean, it's not a stretch to extrapolate that this kind of research sets into motion the steps and nascent beginnings whereby 'patient 0' become a reality, right? Time to get real serious about 'bug-out bags', supplies, weapons, non perishable foods and a rock solid plan.Posted ImagePosted Image Posted ImagePosted Image

According to that, looks like most Republicans have a post-mortality career path as zombies. After being the figuratives zombies they already are.

Still snarling after 40,000 years, a giant Pleistocene wolf discovered in Yakutia

[Quote] The Pleistocene wolf's head is 40cm long, so half of the whole body length of a modern wolf which varies from 66 to 86cm.

Yes, it's an ad, but someone may be interested. I never even knew this existed.

Ok guys, with the polarizing intolerance that has gripped the board of late, I wanted to post something positive. Something that I think we all agree is totally awesome!
