Becky Sauerbrunn took two minutes for quick-clot and concussion protocol and was right back in it.

These girls are incredible. They don’t roll around acting like they’ve been shot when they are tackled. That’s what I love about them.

A salute to Sari van Veenendaal: an absolutely stellar display of goalkeeping.

She also holds the record for being the ugliest woman to ever play the game.

Pure adoration...

FATHERS

At least he used his turn signal.

It is not that all fathers are wise, they have just made so many mistakes that they are qualified to give advice. But maybe that is what wisdom is.
^^A1^^

Father's may or may not tell you about their mistakes.

But when he tells you never to open the door in a car wash he probably just remembers what he did that time.
^^A2^^

"My dad bought me a horse."

From all the dads in the world a big collective Fuck You Horse Buying Dad - you are making the rest of us look bad.

^^A3^^

Dads will allow themselves to be embarrassed by their daughters.

Not so much by their sons.
^^A4^^

But in all honesty, dads have no trouble embarrassing themselves.

^^A5^^

This daughter is signing the words to the song to her deaf father.

Shit like that brings tears to our eyes.
^^A6^^

Fathers will not only allow their sons and daughters to do things like this, but they will even dare them to do it.

^^A7^^

That's right, a dad's primary job is to protect the family and we take that responsibility very seriously.
^^A8^^

Southerners like to grill beef products and barbecue pork products.

THERE'S NO SUCH THING AS TOO MUCH INFORMATION

The Russian Ministry of Agriculture Building in Kazan.

I was putting this post together at the bar and a guy asked me if the tree "just grew like that."

The solution is a 4K TV and a couple of cameras.

This is how NOT to fire an elephant gun.
(this is not a film)

I fired one of those once. The shell is as large as a 12 gauge shotgun shell and has a hell of a punch. But just look how securely he has shouldered this beast.

If you would like to see him do this in motion, click this:

This is a little hard to follow but very interesting.

When scientists talk about recent extinctions, birds and mammals get most of the attention. But the first global analysis of its kind finds that twice as many plants have disappeared than birds, mammals, and amphibians combined.

This is a real log cabin.

They didn't have the time or desire to deal with the aesthetics.

The Biggest Icebreaker In The World - Nuclear Powered "Yamal".

As I understand it, the ice breaker doesn't crash through the ice but rather rides atop it and the weight of the ship cracks the ice.

^^B8^^

The power is incredible...

T-80UK

One pipe for air intake, the other for exhaust. Impressive.

'Female Viagra' Was Just Approved by The FDA Despite "Skimpy Peer-Reviewed Data"

Skimpy evidence? Shut the fuck up! Rhino horns only make men's dicks get hard because of the placebo effect. If women think it works then it will work!
^^B11^^

Summer in the American South means sweating in your room or opening your window and hearing your neighbor Big Gerdy yelling about her lack of orgasms.

SOCIAL AFFAIRS

I am of the opinion that the only way to end racism is to breed it out of existence with mixed-race babies.
^^C1^^

But why a pop culture icon that's been done a million times?
^^C2^^

Where else?

Ala-fucking-bama.
^^C3^^

Yeah, like if you can make mud pies then you can become a chef.
^^C4^^

We shall see.
^^C5^^

People of Istanbul on the streets celebrating victory over Erdogan's party remembering his quote "whoever gets Istanbul, gets Turkey as well". Istanbul is the largest city of Turkey (15 million) which roughly 1/5 of the whole population.

One of the first explosions on a military base in Arys, Southern Kazakhstan.

Warehouses, where armaments were stored, caught fire, eventually resulting in massive explosions. Whole city with a population of 50.000 being evacuated. As of 7.00 pm local time, warehouses are still exploding. One reported dead, dozens injured.
RH: Why store munitions anywhere near a city?
^^C8^^

RH: Transparency is all well and good, but our health care delivery system is shit and no amount of polish will change that.

The meaning of Chargoggagoggmanchauggagoggchaubunagungamaugg has been widely debated. In the 1920s, a reporter for The Webster Times, Lawrence J. Daly, wrote that it was a Nipmuck Indian word meaning "You fish on your side, I fish on my side and nobody fishes in the middle."
^^C12^^

Baby looking at us like... "Y'ALL SEE THIS TOO RIGHT?"

That is a perfect image of parenthood. That woman is numb with exhaustion.

When I was in high school a girl's mother called to break up with me for her.

CREATURES GREAT AND SMALL

Capuchin Monkeys May Have Been in Their Own Unique 'Stone Age' For at Least 3,000 Years

Tucked away in a remote valley of Brazil's Serra da Capivara National Park, a group of bearded capuchin monkeys uses round quartz stones to crack open cashew nuts on tree roots or other rocks. Beneath their feet, archaeologists have found at least 3,000-years-worth of discarded tools.

It's called "Hand Fishing,"

But my guess is that fish has been fed from that pier for a long time and has learned to trust the human benefactors. It's like grabbing one of those tamed garage-eating eagles I have shown you and then claiming you caught a wild Bald Eagle with your bare hands.
