How did half the country forget that with great freedom comes great responsibility?

PONDERABLES
Why do they do it different than anybody on Earth?
"We've always done it that way."
Now that the world is shrinking more every day I think it's about time we standardized as much as possible. Language may be impossible, but things like driving on the same side of the road is well within reason. And, of course, using the metric system.

My brother worked on the flight line his whole career and is deaf as a post. He has not been compensated.
I just learned that Denmark was part of Scandinavia.
Why is this an impossible concept for so many Americans?
I love the word 'frolicked' and think it should become a national pastime.
We Americans are over-criminalized.
We should ask the same question of some Democratic pols also. But we all know the answer don't we. They have been paid for their votes so that the rich can get richer.
I was today years old when I learned that this mother is suckling and the child is sucking.
I keep getting these ads for the trailer hitch I looked up months ago.
I like this guy.
In Star Trek all the Red Shirts die.

I haven't tried yoga but I have tried bending over to pick up my keys so I'm pretty sure I'd hate yoga.
WOULD YOU LOOK AT THAT
There are way too many pics like this for it to be a rare event. I'm thinking they are reenactors.
It's almost the same color as the sky.
I've shown you that before but just noticed it is trying to murder the low flying bird.
It's fake. If you look closely you can see 3 cats.
That a metaphor for me in the last weeks of staythefuckathome.
Accidental Renaissance in today's newspaper.
Saw it in New York Times and had to share it. Honestly looked even better in the lower-res newspaper version for looking like a painting. It's a funeral home in the time of covid.
Noguchi sculpture with this caption: 13 Architects and Designers Imagine Playscapes of the Future
From a clever slide sculpture and to a hide-and-seek–inspired teahouse, this is what play is going to look like in the years ahead.
Okay.
On a Great Lake...
Did I ever tell you about the time I went snowboarding?
"Tried" to go snowboarding.

My wife thought MC Hammer was pronounced as if he was Scottish - McHammer.
PEOPLE DOING THINGS I CAN'T OR WON'T DO
New Banksy video narrated by Bob Ross
On Monday, anonymous street artist Banksy's latest artwork appeared on an outside wall of the former Reading Prison in Berkshire, England. Banksy confirmed the work was this in this brilliant video narrated by Bob Ross.
Women of 93rd brigade of the Ukrainian Ground Forces.
"These are our women. Zealous, strong, talented, dedicated and smart. They came to the army not to be a "decoration of the team" or a "support" for male colleagues, but to defend their country. So support women, encourage them to take the initiative and take on leadership responsibilities. Because the most valuable gift for them is respect."
Wrong. Every. Single. Time.
Covid test with Tourettes.
How very, very sad.
Note: Sound wouldn't help in that it's not in English.
I don't know what that game is but I do know he's good at it.
Woman Discovers a Secret Passage Behind Her Bathroom Mirror
Samantha Hartsoe of New York City was long puzzled about why her apartment is always so cold. She carefully studied it and realized that cold air was blowing from the edges of her bathroom mirror. When she took it off the wall, she found a large hole behind it. When Hartsoe climbed through the hole, she found an entire apartment. Aside from trash and unfinished utilities, it was empty. But had someone been there?
Berezka is a form of dance where they move with such short steps that they appear to be floating.
How do they get the slug marks off the carpet?
Fine then.
The scared woman's situational awareness stinks.
Just a swing.
Imagine how beautiful that place would be without that fucking monstrosity there.
In the South, we do it differently.
My Mom trained a squirrel named, Phil, to retrieve peanuts from her lips. The next year they renamed it Phillis when it had babies and brought them to meet my mother.
Speaking of training animals...

Apparently, it's only appropriate to say, "Look at you! You got so big!" to children.
ITEMS OF INTEREST
This is Catfish Charlie, the CIA's robot spy fish.
It looks remarkably real in the water...
If it can make it there it can make it anywhere.
That's...alarming.
That must be very difficult to pedal but once up to speed almost impossible to stop.
Wisdom the albatross, the world's oldest known wild bird, has had a chick at the age of at least 70.
The Laysan albatross hatched the chick on 1 February in a wildlife refuge in the North Pacific Ocean, the US Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) has said. Laysan albatrosses usually only live for 12-40 years. But Wisdom was first identified by researchers in 1956.
I bet they have been cushioning the fall in the same way since Egyptian times.
15th-century Ming dynasty bowl found in a yard sale
"A small bowl bought for just $35 at a market sale in the US state of Connecticut has turned out to be a rare 15th-Century Chinese artefact.
The white porcelain bowl was spotted by an unidentified antiques enthusiast near New Haven last year, and they quickly sought an expert evaluation. The experts came back with good news, revealing that the bowl is thought to be worth between $300,000 and $500,000.
In fact, it is believed to be one of only seven such bowls in existence and most of the others are in museums."
Dust devil destroys a fruit stand.
His entire livelihood vanishes in a blink of the eye.
As I understand it, you can not train a hunting dog not to be frightened of the report of the gun. I imagine that training cavalry horses involves the same steady nerves.
Digging up potatoes
I assume bruising is not a major concern.
And the aftermath...

C4 is snooker. The aim of the break is to hit a red ball, but not leave your opponent an easy shot, so you aim to leave the reds in the middle and bring the white back into baulk.
D6 is boiling because the pressure is low. The triple point is independent of pressure, hence it is used to determine the Kelvin and Celcius scales (pure water TP 273.16 K or 0.1 C). Under normal atmospheric pressure, water doesn't boil at 0.1 C.
Puzzle:.
The values are the sum of the numerical values of the consonants in the words divided by 100. A=1, B=2, etc.
Since the y in the word "turkey" is considered a vowel, the answer is 120, or £1.20
