Hell, I would give it to myself if required.

OBJECTS OF INTEREST

^^A1^^

Said to be "Sea Fossils of some ancient sea mollusks."

There are those who think that is fake. I have no way of proving it one way or the other.
This post contains several items that have been contested. More to come.
^^A2^^

That thing looks lethal!

Wes Anderson’s New Film, ‘The French Dispatch’.

The official synopsis for the film is: “The film is a love letter to journalists set in an outpost of an American newspaper in a fictional 20th Century French city and brings to life a collection of stories published in ‘The French Dispatch’ magazine.”

How can anyone not love this guy?

^^A4^^

If it was a label on a bottle of maple syrup it would be the most Canadian thing ever.
^^A5^^

Go ahead. I dare you.

2020 and still waiting for the Sequel. District 9 was a really good movie on many levels.

Pointer puppies and their mother instinctively freezing at the sight of a “feather.”

^^B4^^

Fake, of course, but funny.

I want to give away free lab coats on the streets and turn our city's homeless problem into its crazy doctor problem.

ON A MORE SERIOUS NOTE

Why would anybody give a shit about how many spouses consenting adults prefer? I just don't get it.
^^C1^^

Why lie?

A comment: "This robe is what Cambodian monks wear, and this monk looks Khmer. NOT Tibetan."
I looked up images of both monks and apparently, the comment was correct. My question is why lie about it?
^^C2^^

^^C3^^

Wouldn't a delivery guy know by now that they are constantly under surveillance? Why risk your job to save three or four seconds?
^^C4^^

A reminder of what Dr. Souse had to say about a looming World War II:

Then I stumbled across this...

That sounds so very familiar.

I often wonder if I would have the guts to stand up to tyranny.

German anti-Nazi dissident. He wrote this in jail after protesting the genocide of the Jews. He was sent to Flossenbürg concentration camp. After the July 20 plot to assassinate Hitler, he was tried, convicted and hung as the Allies breached German soil in the East and West. Hitler committed suicide 21 days later.

What 2 milligrams of fentanyl, a lethal dose in most people, looks like:

And there are those who buy it on the street from people they don't know.
^^C6^^

One of them, Jonny Kim, is an emergency physician and a veteran of 100 combat operations with the Navy SEALs, where he earned a Silver Star. He also has a mathematics degree and doctorate in medicine from Harvard.
So, yeah, the bar is set pretty high.
