That’s fucking crazy. I didn’t even know that was possible. I didn’t realize rabies goes through your organs, I thought it just goes to your brain. How incredibly unlucky. RIP.

You gotta feel like such an asshole for confiscating that

Wow! Nice capture on that 3rd pic. I didn’t know their eyelids were sideways like that

I could understand the individual components but all together like that, idk

Edit: oh oops. I thought that light gray pillow peeking out was some kind of neck roll for neck support. Lol. This must be for shark week sex.

Well those kids were uniquely screwed. But I figure in a sinking car scenario, the best bet is to immediately roll down the windows. Even better to have manual windows so there’s no risk of automatic windows failing. I have that drilled into my brain, for let’s say I’m driving a car rental and by some freak accident fall off a cliff edge. Fuck waiting for the pressure to equalize, by then who knows how deep I’d be and I don’t trust how long I could hold my breath for.
Roll. Down. The. Windows!

18 year old upload still around. Noice. Song is from their 1982 album Troops of Tomorrow. Still relevant🤘🏼

 

TLDR: Cities are allowing developers to re-zone retail units that go un-leased. They can then be converted into live-work studios so people can run businesses from home ie. an artist running a home studio, a massage therapist taking clients, a home daycare, etc. Seems this could really help with California’s chronic housing crisis.

 

Lesser known song. Sounds like a cross between a nursery rhyme and a drinking/pub song. Someone in the comments said it sounds like a Monty Python song, which is bang on😁

Album: The Hangman’s Beautiful Daughter (1968)

Genre: British psychedelic folk


Straight on the shoulder, I think like a soldier
I know what's right and what's wrong
(He knows what's right and what's wrong)

I'm the original discriminating buffalo man
And I'll do what's wrong as long as I can
(He'll do what's wrong as long as he can)

I live in a labyrinth under the sea
Down in the dark, as dark as can be
I like the dark as dark as can be
(He likes the dark as dark as can be)

I'll even attack you or eat you whole
Down in the dark my bone mills roll
Porridge for my porridge bowl
(Porridge for his porridge bowl)

[Chorus x2]
I'm strong as the earth from which I'm born
(He's strong as the earth from which he's born)
I can't dream well because of my horns
(He can't dream well because of his horns)

A minotaur gets very sore
His features they are such a bore
His habits are predictable
Aggressively reliable, bull, bull

[Chorus]

I'm the original discriminating buffalo man
I'll do what's wrong as long as I can
(He'll do what's wrong as long as he can)

As long as he can
As long as he can
As long as he can
As long as he can
As long as he can
As long as he can
As long as he can
As long as he can

Huzzah!

It’s like chicken + potato curry pastries, but subbing pumpkin for potato🎃 The wonky faces gave me a chuckle.


Makes one dozen currypuffs

Ingredients Needed:

Pumpkin curry:
1/2 small pumpkin/kabocha squash (~250g pumpkin flesh; I got mine from K Fresh)
45ml (3 tbsp) vegetable oil, or any other neutral oil
1/2 onion, diced
2 garlic cloves, minced
5g (1 tbsp) meat curry powder
2g (1 tsp) turmeric powder
1 chicken breast (~150g)
10g (1 tbsp) brown sugar
2g (1/2 tsp) salt
0.5g (1/4 tsp) black pepper

400g (3 1/2 cups) all-purpose flour
150ml (1/2 cup + 2 tbsp) water

1 egg, for eggwash

Just found them! Solid recent melodeath. I’ll just quote the metalcrypt review bc those guys are way better writers than me lol.

Æolian have quietly gone about making the most exciting and impressive melodic death metal in ages since their 2018 debut, Silent Witness, without a whole lot of fanfare, partly because they're located in the tiny Balearic Islands off the coast of Spain, and the only real difference with their latest release, Echoes of the Future, is that it's refined almost to complete perfection. Sure, they've never been a very original band, as their mission statement is to pay tribute to the past greats of Scandinavian melodeath like Dissection, Children of Bodom, and Eternal Tears of Sorrow among others, but who gives a rat's ass about that if they're capable of matching them at the heights of their unholy power? This is a band that understands it's all about crafting instantly hooky melodies to go with endlessly catchy songwriting, and they do it with startling professionalism and passion as they give as much reverence to the glory days of the Swedish scene as they do the Finnish, like with the face-ripping opener "Hominis Obscura," the folky "Dreams of Reality," the—actually, I'll stop right there because I'd be reading off the whole damn track list at this rate. You want to know what makes melodic death metal great even now, decades after people got sick of it? Just slap this sucker in and be blown away by how little you need to reinvent a wheel when you know how to steer it down the path of greatness. Definitely a contender for Best of 2023.
