Drone Flamethrower Clears Debris From Powerline

The first time I posted that I wondered about burning the rubber insulation from the wire, but high power lines like that don't have rubber covering.

Eger, Czechoslovakia, 2 October 1938
Three women raise their right arms to salute the German army as it enters the Sudentenland, the ethnically German western fringe of Czechoslovakia, ceded to Hitler under the Munich agreement of three days earlier. The betrayal of the Czechs marked the nadir of the Anglo-French policy of appeasement intended to forestall war with the fascist powers of Germany and Italy. The ensuing U-turn by London and Paris came too late to save the rest of Czechoslovakia and Poland from Hitler.

Lodz, Poland, circa 1940-45

Ghetto workers employed to clean up feces. An assignment as a “fecal worker" was usually a death sentence, as workers soon contracted typhus. Henryk Ross was a Polish Jew who worked for the Jewish Council in the quasi-autonomous Lodz ghetto and took thousands of photographs of life under the Nazis. In 1944, when it became clear that the ghetto was to be liquidated, Ross buried his 6,000 negatives, returning after the war to reclaim them. Explaining why he had cataloged life in the ghetto, he said in 1987, four years before he died: “I was anticipating the total destruction of Polish Jewry, and wanted to leave a historical record of our martyrdom.”

Cookie Monster has forward-facing eyes mounted high on his head. This suggests that Cookie Monster is a submerged ambush predator. Just something to consider.

At some point, I worry that self-driving cars will go a route just to ensure I see certain stores or billboards. The real-world equivalent of a pop-up ad.

Ah yes, we have two genders. Pizza, and pizza with arms.

I'm thinking it has to do with women having free hands when they pee but men have to hold their dick.

Speaking of hands...

Something horrible happened here.

Next time you go to a restaurant and the server asks you how much cheese you want, just say "as much as you think I deserve," and don't you dare break eye contact in silence that follows.

Your poster for the Passion of the Spaghetti Monsters made me ponder the deeper religious significance of this Lady and the Tramp scene. Are we to see it as an allegory for the sufferings of mankind endured by the Flying Spaghetti Monster, or is it perhaps... (... a further two hours of pretentious waffle)!

Puzzle time...
assuming the upper-right matchstick is the face, couldn't you just rotate that 180 degrees and make the face look the other direction?

Puzzle time: take the left-most match (back leg), and place it horizontaly on tbe bottom so tbat it touches the bottom (foot) of tbe front leg.
The front leg then becomes the back, and the back becomes the front leg.
