See anything...odd...
Source: The Beyond (1980), by Lucio Fulci. The actor realized that it would look silly of his character never had to reload his gun, so he ad-libbed... stuffing bullets down the barrel. The actress’s smile is her trying not to laugh.

“Even Worse Than Before”: Japan’s Fertility Crisis
Preliminary government data suggests that Japan’s fertility crisis is worsening, as the data from the first seven months of this year show the sharpest drop in births in 30 years.
Data from the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare show that births fell 5.9% percent from January to July year on year, and the number of women in their childbearing age is shrinking, not to mention the increasing number of women who decide to delay having children, or decide not to have any children at all.

A man named Darren Hickey has died after sampling a fishcake so hot it burned his throat and caused him to be unable to breathe, an inquest has heard. His voice box swelled up over the following 12 hours, which eventually caused him to choke.
The pathologist who performed a post-mortem examination, said the case was very rare, only seen normally in people who have breathed in super-heated smoke in house fires, which burns the airways.

This siphon technique is extraordinary...I mean it.

The most powerful typhoon in decades was on course to hit the coast of Japan's main island of Honshu, bringing strong winds and up to 2 feet of rain. As of Oct. 12 Super Typhoon Hagibis has strengthened to a Category 5 storm and although it's expected to weaken to Category 4 before making landfall, it would still bring extremely rough seas and winds up to 135 mph to the region.

Bison haven’t stepped foot on this land in the Badlands National Park since 1870.
Today we celebrated the park opening up 22,000 acres of new bison range. Almost 1,200 bison now has 80,000 acres to graze.

Wildlife Officials Warn Public to Kill "Land-Dwelling" Fish on Sight
The Asian snakehead fish is an invasive species from China that can grow up to 3 feet long and survive for days at a time on land. They're on the loose in Georgia. Wildlife officials urge members of the public to immediately kill them. You can't afford to wait.

I read about a New York corner grocery that had to cancel all the debt of its customers so they would return to the store. Apparently, when they were unable to pay their tab they were too embarrassed to shop there anymore.
^^B8^^
You need to listen to this lady.

Your anus is the only place on your body that when you get it smeared with fecal matter you would feel comfortable wiping it with dry paper a couple of times and consider the job done.

ART AND THE ARTY
The Banksy popup in Croydon this week.
Banksy opened up a "shop" in croydon for a couple of weeks because an "unnamed greetings card company" is forcing him to sell branded merchandise. The showroom is for display purposes only and the doors will not open. All sales will be conducted online when the website opens soon. This shop has come about as a result of legal action. A greetings cards company is trying to seize legal custody of the name Banksy from the artist, who has been advised the best way to prevent this is to sell his own range of branded merchandise.
Also....if anyone is in the area if you go with children they have been giving free posters to children visiting.
Many more images here:

Why Renaissance Paintings Aren’t as Green as They Used to Be
When Da Vinci and Botticelli painted their masterpieces, did they wonder if their works would last for hundreds of years? Did they ever think that even if they did, they might look different? Successful painters use the best paints that were available at the time, but they were formulated for their color, not their longevity. And in many of those paintings, what used to be a brilliant green is now a muddy brown.

Everyone talks about how hard it is to write a book, but have you considered just letting your book be very bad?
Nobody asks, “Did you write a good book?”
You get the same credit either way.

FUN WITH LANGUAGE
^^D1^^
Wikipedia has a list of Humorous units of measurement, in addition to their List of unusual units of measurement. The humorous units are better, although the two lists are not mutually exclusive. the humorous units all have funny stories behind them, but some stand out because they are actually used.

I got a new super-charge car a few decades ago and I took it out on a lonely stretch of road to see what it would do. About a mile ahead of me I saw the lights of an approaching car so I slowed down, but not before the Highway Patrolman had me on radar going 103 in a 55 zone. I was his first ticket. His supervisor had to walk him through how to fill out the form then added, "You could reduce his speed for having a good attitude if you want to." He wrote me up for 103.

Language subtlety: I got a comment from a foreign viewer that read: "Thank you 1,000,000." In America, we say "Thanks a million." It's not so much a number as size.
^^D10^^
Those numbers don't add up, of course, but I like the sentiment.

That this advice is necessary in my country makes me sad.
