In other words, a $100 bill is not worth its weight in gold…
Since gold just hit $3,121.60 per ounce and a $100 bill weighs 1 gram, a gram of gold is now worth (at time of posting) about $100.37—slightly more than a $100 bill…
Yep, that was for yesterday… Today, it is just under again… But still interesting, no?
3,000-year-old ornate dagger found on Poland’s Baltic coast…
Whenever I see these posts I always like to think about the person who lost it... Did they have a bad day? Did they get home and be like oh crap I lost my dagger…
More pictures here on Facebook…
California’s 'Glory Hole' active again after 6 years…
This gigantic drain terrifies the me but also is so interesting I want to throw myself down it…
CERN is trying to build a new collider at least three times the size of the Large Hadron Collider to unlock secrets of the universe…
More than $30bn would be spent drilling a 91km circular tunnel in which subatomic particles would be accelerated to near light speeds and smashed into each other…
If the plans go ahead, the organization will ask for approval in the next five years and hope to have the machine built and ready for operations in the 2040s when the LHC has completed its runs.
There we have it, folks… Another machine to try to become God…
Mysterious solar radiation storm in progress…
The four astronauts of Fram2 are currently flying through a solar radiation storm as energetic protons from the sun rain down on Earth.
It's a category 2 storm, which means it poses no threat to astronaut health. It is, however, affecting Earth.
Take a look at this map:
The red zones are places where shortwave radio transmissions are blacked out--a direct result of protons striking Earth's upper atmosphere and ionizing the air 50 km to 90 km above the ground.
This is called a polar cap absorption event. Anyone trying to use a shortwave radio inside the Arctic Circle may find that it doesn't work while the storm is in progress.
The cause of this storm is a bit of a mystery. NOAA analysts believe the protons may be accelerated by a big CME, which narrowly missed Earth on March 31st. The CME didn't hit us, but it may be spraying protons in our direction…
2.8 billion accounts, 340 million users…
X hit by 2.8 billion profile data leak in alleged insider job…
If this leak proves that more than 80% of Twitter accounts are bots, it should cause some damage…
It’s also proof they don’t delete your data…
Two loving swans are reunited and their joy is absolutely infectious…
Swans are very loyal to their partners… but bastard and hateful with every one else.
But seriously the heartwarmingness I needed today…

Sounds like they were serving rat soup at the 2,000 locations?
Just at one, but this came on the heels of the chain having a cockroach incident not long ago…
Popular Japanese restaurant chain to shut 2,000 branches after rat found in soup… TEMPORARILY… Just TEMPORARILY…
Iceland: Grindavik and Blue Lagoon spa evacuated after new volcanic eruption…
It is the 11th eruption since 2021, when the Reykjanes peninsula, south-west of Reykjavík, started its new eruption period…
A massive fire has erupt from broken gas pipeline in Malaysia…
In Puchong, a Malaysian city an hour's drive from the capital Kuala Lumpur. Petronas pipeline… Fire quickly spread to several homes in nearby residential areas… Some sources state that black soot started coming down from the rain…
Now bring the sausages…
Hitler was a chick confirmed…
In 2009, scientists tested the skull the Soviets said was Adolf Hitler. They determined it was a woman between the ages of 20-40…
Since Argentina is releasing info about Hitler, this seems to be a relevant time for this post…
The world is full of pretenders, and then there is Ron Paul…
I don't know the answer to his question, but I 100% think we should elect Ron Paul in order to find out…
Or is that where Israel comes to capitalize on its blackmail investments?
One of the biggest steps forward a free thinker can take, is understanding it's a uniparty system with a big club we aren't in. Everyone is bought and sold and the left vs right is nothing more than theatrics for the plebes to waste time over. What will people say when Trump and RFK etc are out of office in some years and everything is status quo or worse?
We've seen this episode before…
Fake trucking company steals 80,000 pounds of meat worth $350,000 in TN…
Did this scam happen to utilize frequent flyer miles by chance?
How do you even fence that much meat? Las Vegas hotels? Cruise ships? Seems like it would be a big challenge to get away with selling it.
The 'Universe 25' experiment…
It is one of the most disturbing studies in the history of science, carried out by American scientist John Calhoun between 1958 and 1962.
Calhoun designed an ideal environment for mouse/rats, called "Mouse Paradise", with abundant food, water and space, in order to study the social dynamics of a growing population.
Initially, the colony prospered, but after 317 days, population growth began to stagnate. Upon reaching 600 mice, serious social problems arose: hierarchies were established, the strongest individuals began to attack others, and aggressive and maladaptive behaviors emerged, such as violence between females and a lack of reproductive interest in males.
As passive, non-reproductive (beautiful mice) males dominated, the birth rate plummeted, juvenile mortality reached 100%, and the colony collapsed into cannibalism and homosexuality.
The experiment was repeated 25 times, each time with similar results, and has been used to model the study of social collapse and urban sociology.
And I can’t stop thinking about how that’s us. Right now…
Meanwhile, New Zealand banned phones in schools 12 months ago. Here’s what happened…
Our brains have 50% more plastic in them than they did in 2016.
Where does it go from here?
Considering the department of agriculture has been banned from using the term "microplastics," among many other words and phrases, I imagine we go to a much, much worse place…
Some 68 years ago today, millions of people tuned into a BBC Panorama report about a Swiss family harvesting spaghetti from trees…
And many viewers believed it. It was, of course, an April Fool’s day prank…

"Our brains have 50% more plastic in them than they did in 2016." Don't be surprised to see Musk and Gates start a brain recycling business.
"91km circular tunnel in which subatomic particles would be accelerated to near light speeds and smashed into each other…" I thought they did that with the first CERN. What?; will they build one to encircle the earth next?
