| One Thing Trump Supporters and Protesters Can Agree On: Free Pot Posted: 21 Jan 2017 03:59 AM PST There's been a lot of news about the inauguration this year and it mostly focused on how divided people are about a Trump presidency -he has tons of die-hard supporters, but also tons of die-hard critics. But one thing that brought people of all walks of life together at the inauguration yesterday was the promise of free weed for all. Pro-marijuana legalization group the DC Cannabis Coalition, also known as DCMJ, rolled 8,000 joints and gave them out to the public asking only that those recieving the goods be over 21 and have an ID to prove it. The group's aim was to bring attention to the plight of marijuana legalization (it is currently legal to have and share -though not to sell in DC) under the looming shadow of Trump's selected Attorney General, who is very outspoken about being anti-marijuana.

| Posted: 20 Jan 2017 11:59 PM PST Generally speaking, marine animals don't like to be touched but that's not always the case. In fact, professional diver Rick Anderson has a close friendship with a Port Jackson shark that constantly seeks out his pets and belly scratches. It all started when he started trying to show his diving students how friendly sharks can be by playing with one freshly hatched shark. From that point on, whenever Anderson dived in those waters, the shark would find him and seek cuddles and scratches. This has gone on for seven years, "it got to the point that if I didn’t notice her, she would come out and tap me on the legs until I held out my arms for a cuddle, often to the amazement of my students," he says. Of course Rick encourages other divers to be respectful of wild animals,"they’ll let you know if they don’t want to be handled," he says, adding, "If you touch some of them, you can also wipe off their protective layers of skin." So please, don't go running around trying to pet under water animals just because this shark is adorable. You can read more about the shark and Rick and see more pictures on Buzzfeed. | ||||||||
| Posted: 20 Jan 2017 09:59 PM PST Barnaby Dixon is the young puppet designer who showed us his delightful Aztec warrior finger puppet last year. Now he's got a new one that evokes the real feel of a prehistoric raptor! The puppet is a rather complicated construction, but as before, his skills in operating it make it something special. -via Tastefully Offensive | ||||||||
| The Most Deadly Path in England Posted: 20 Jan 2017 07:59 PM PST (Image via Wikipedia) Just off of the coast of Essex lies Foulness Island, which is home to the most deadly pathway in all of Britian. Known as the Broomway, the path travels several hundred yards off the coast stretching for three miles as it leads the walker through sand and mud flats that are washed clear by the sea twice a day every day. At least 100 people have died on the Broomway, and those are only the recorded victims. Of those 100, only sixty six of the bodies were recovered and they have since been laid to rest in the small churchyard nearby. Of course, the quickly rising tide is only one of the deadly threats to walkers on what Edwardian newspapers termed "The Doomway." While the path was marked by the locals who buried brooms in the mud long ago, hence the name "Broomway," in rain, mist or fog, the pathway can become dangerously disorienting with little to guide the walker along the path of shining sand. Even in good weather, a wrong step can leave you stuck in deep mud or quicksand. Of course, the path wasn't built just to be a deadly, scenic attraction. Until 1932, it was the only way to reach the Foulness Island from the mainland without a boat. You can read more about the Broomway and a detailed account of walking the treacherous path in this BBC article. | ||||||||
| Posted: 20 Jan 2017 05:59 PM PST I can't believe how many posts I see on a daily basis which are written by people who still call Kaneda "Akira", Link "Zelda" or Samus Aran "Metroid". These people insist on writing about geeky stuff yet can't be bothered to do their homework and discover these characters' real names, and then they add insult to injury by calling R2-D2 and C-3PO "robots". That's why Sephko Comics created this important illustrated message for the Learn the Damn Name Foundation, to show those lazy bloggers that people care- so learn the damn names already! *shakes fist* -Via Geeks Are Sexy | ||||||||
| The Brutalist Playground Doesn't Sound Fun, But These Kids Seem To Dig It Posted: 20 Jan 2017 03:59 PM PST (Image by Alun Bull) Brutalism and playgrounds don't sound like they would go well together, but judging by the way these kids look as they play on this Brutalist-inspired playground equipment they can't tell the difference. (Image by Alun Bull) Architectural collective ASSEMBLE installed their recreation of post-war play structures "The Brutalist Playground" at the Vitra Design Museum, but instead of concrete and steel they used reconstituted foam. (Image by Alun Bull) ASSEMBLE's "The Brutalist Playground" is inspired by the Brutalist architecture movement, which flourished from the 50s to the 70s:

| Always Look On The Dark Side Of Life - Siths Don't Smile Posted: 20 Jan 2017 01:59 PM PST Always look on the Dark Side of Life by IdeasConPatatas People are always telling us to look on the bright side, to see the silver lining and to keep our heads up so we can see that the sky is still blue. But if there's one thing you can always bet on it's that wars will spring up out of the blue, and the Empire can rain death and destruction down upon our heads anywhere and at any time. That's why it's better to stay cynical, so you can keep any new hope you may have in check and stay frosty when you're facing Darth's Imperial forces, because the stars aren't shining down upon you because they care about your well-being... Sing a different tune, one that's more appropriate for the dark times ahead, by wearing this Always Look On The Dark Side Of Life t-shirt by IdeasConPatatas, it's a comedy anthem for a dark new world. Visit IdeasConPatatas's Facebook fan page, Twitter and Instagram, then head over to his NeatoShop for more delightfully geeky designs:

| Giant Alligator Casually Crosses Paths With Tourists In Florida Posted: 20 Jan 2017 01:59 PM PST Tourists who visit the wild parts of Florida hear rumors they may see wild animals up close and personal during their visit, and yet they're still shocked when the rumors turn out to be true. But I'm pretty sure most native Floridians would still flip out if they saw a twelve foot long alligator walking by just a few feet away. Kim Joiner and Sean and Kristi Buckley were visiting the Circle B Park in Lakeland, Florida when a giant gator named Humpback strolled by like he's no big deal, giving Kim and the Buckleys a chance to play gator paparazzi. And just like that Humpback was gone back to wherever 12-foot-long alligators spend their days, but not before Kim could shoot this video footage of his casual stroll. -Via My Modern Met | ||||||||
| People Share The Most Bizarre Rules They Had To Follow As Kids Posted: 20 Jan 2017 11:59 AM PST Parents need to set boundaries for their children both as a way to teach them right and wrong and to keep them safe in the outside world, because kids who run amok with no boundaries are bound to get hurt.
But some parents take the setting of household boundaries too far, and their ridiculous demands affect their kids for the rest of their lives.
Redditors took to AskReddit to answer the question "What bizarre rule did your parents enforce that seemed normal, but when you grew up realized was not normal at all?" and their answers prove some parents are plumb loco.
There may have been extenuating circumstances that the Redditors aren't sharing which led to these bizarre rules, but how does a parent justify not letting visitors poop in their house?

| Isolated Treehouse Hotel Lets You Sleep Under The Northern Lights Posted: 20 Jan 2017 07:59 AM PST Treehotel in Sweden has just launched its 7th room, which they call the 7th Room. The luxury suite is a 600 square foot living space (two bedrooms, one bath, and a common area) perched 33 feet up in a clump of trees! It has plenty of outdoor deck space and it is enclosed by glass to allow for spectacular views of Swedish Lapland. The suite is open for rental beginning today, although it is probably booked up for a while. Dtaying there would be a once-in-a-lifetime experience. See a collection of gorgeous photographs of the 7th Room at Uncoached. | ||||||||
| People Are Knitting Sweaters to Help Rescued Elephants Posted: 20 Jan 2017 05:59 AM PST Elephants may be jumbo-sized, but they're still quite emotionally sensitive. So the elephants rescued from abuse who live at the Wildlife SOS Elephant Conservation and Care Center rely on the compassion and love of their caretakers. Unfortuantely, as much as the voluteers at the center love their charges, they can't hug their whole bodies all day long to keep them warm during a surprising cold spell in India. So instead, the volunteers are working to knit the elephants jumbo-sized sweaters to keep them cozy and warm during the freezing winter weather. Each sweater takes about four weeks to make, but that's a small price to pay when it means keeping rescued elephants happy and healthy. Via The Dodo |
