    My plan to create a perfectly flat and level Kansas by moving 5,501 cubic miles of earth from west to east. It’s the ideal Kansas. Still some details to work out about rivers, roads, etc. Watch out for the 900-foot cliff bisecting Kansas City.

    I have never once had cause to use the phrase “mad cartographer” before today, but this person is amazing.

    “mad cartographer”

    I am filled with such delight.

    Now this is some goddamn mad science engineering!

    it’s just honestly laughable to suggest that bombing an already bombed country even further is going to make it more difficult to pull off attacks in the UK or western europe, coordinated terrorist attacks don’t require the backing of a formal state infrastucture and if they did, there would be a lot fewer of them

    it is just moronic and entirely playing into ISIL’s rhetoric to believe that constant escalation of ground war there is an effective response to terrorism, the only reason this has happened is because british government in general is desperate to seem relevant and desperate not to seem ineffectual, this is a bombing campaign enacted by default, I don’t really care how eloquently someone defends it tbh

  • Reblog if you have used dude as a non gender specific term.

    disparition:

    where I grew up in California not only is “dude” generally non-gender-specific, half of the time it doesn’t even refer to a person at all.

    Watch: It’s your right to share your salary, not doing so could be holding you back.

    At my last company, one day someone in accounting approached me at lunch and quietly told me I need to ask for a raise because I was way underpaid.

    They gave me a number to shoot for.  It was about twice than what I had been making at the time.

    So I went online, did some research, found some figures backing up my claim, put it all together and went to my boss.

    I got what I asked for.

    If it hadn’t been for that person in accounting telling me I was way underpaid, I’d have never known.  I went from barely scraping by to being able to have a savings account and getting all my debts paid thanks to them.

    You should at least check sites like salary.com to start the process of seeing what you should be making.

    Because this is crucially important

  • As we run around we pause to say hello

    We’ve been heading all over the country to see friends and fam over the past few weeks. This last weekend it was the turn of a couple of couples to host and entertain us. In the loosest sense of the word, they happen to be near the under the pier show, which is a Tim Hunkin creation (of Secret Life of Machines fame).

    Now, I’ve wanted to visit it since discovering it existed. I’d always been sad not to have seen the Doctor when he was in Covent Garden (I remember seeing the automaton, but I never had the coins to try it)… So, anyhow, cut to the chase… I was super excited to go…

    … and dragged everyone 2 hours across teeny country roads in the car…

    … and we wandered up the pier in 50 mile an hour winds, with the rain spattering on our heads…

    … and it was totally worth it. Kathryn had her brain washed, and I had my fortune (automatically) told. We voyaged under the sea, I took a mini-break in the sun, I took a zimmer frame (walker) training course (and died horribly), Kathryn wack-a-banker’d… It was just brilliantly eccentric.

    After that, we relaxed and played gubs whilst eating delicious Thai food. Num.

    Then Sunday we headed over to visit more friends, and having eaten a delicious roast dinner we headed in to Cambridge. Given that I was born here, and am a super-big fan of Acorn, you’d think I’d’ve made time to visit Cambridge at some point in the last 3 decades. But no.

    It’s very pretty – and we had a lovely time wandering about, chatting, and generally being people who weren’t engaged in the massively stressful process of moving.

    Then we came back home…

    Ted Cruz celebrates anti-abortion extremist 8 days before the Planned Parenthood shooting

    Just eight days before Robert L. Dear, 57, attacked a Planned Parenthood in Colorado, Ted Cruz bragged about an endorsement he received from the head of Christian pro-life organization Operation Rescue, Troy Newman. Newman has a history of openly endorsing violence against abortion providers.
