Early Yiddish (1577) medical treatise: "He who was bitten by a rabid dog, take a piece of bread or a piece of pork and dry the blood on the pork or on the bread, and then give it to a dog or cat. Tie a piece of linen on the wound. Pork is better as bread heals it slowly."

An important announcement from the Governor of Illinois.

I had a dream that Lombard was south of Chicago, how wild and crazy is that

"Everyone's threat model should include me, I don't like being excluded" - @digitalvergil.bsky.social

it humbles me to say this but since lots of subreddit mods have taken a stronger stance against fascism by banning links from X than the Democratic Party as a whole, i have no choice but to drop "reddit behavior (pejorative)" from my vocabulary

they call it the Yukon cause Yukon travel the world but nothing comes close to the golden coast

✡️Tribe, gather 'round for a #Jwitter (z''l) / #Jewsky Aggadah concerning Spanish Frogs 🐸: A certain man Yirmeyahu asked, "What's the name for frogs in Shemot?" Raz answered and said, "They're different," referring to Spaniards (ספרדים) and frogs (צפרדעים). For Yirmeyahu said, "They are the same."

Nintendo of Europe's official 1998 German guide for Yoshi's Story depicts White Yoshi as being highly religious. He also states that his constant words of admonition of the other Yoshis' sinful behavior caused them to abandon him.

So, don’t take it from me: take it from someone with a PhD (Dan McClellan): the way we conceptualize “religion” means that the only religion that exists is Christianity (and *maybe* Islam).

I was skeptical of the drone reports at first. I mocked people who reported them. I laughed at them. And then I saw one for myself and captured photographic evidence. They’re real.

if a one dimensional array of characters is a string, does that mean a two dimensional array of characters is a text-ile... makes u think...

You know who can live like that? My ex-boyfriend who inherited a house. A cute, small house that his grandma had owned. He works part-time at the co-op, makes art, plays games, works at a summer camp. He's so happy! The impacts of generational wealth in regards to housing are bonkers.

thinking about the drone thing and now it's just going to be like this forever

they should keep the port where it is, it encourages peripheral parents to practice the tummy time that’s so crucial to an accessory’s development

If you are cis ("not transgender") I need to explain this to you. Bluesky today posted this vague thread, announcing-without-spelling-out that they're allowing a writer, net troll and anti-trans activist named Jesse Singal to stay on the platform, despite every trans user saying it makes us unsafe.

zaslav cancelled Sesame Street, if you were like. waiting on one more straw to break your camel’s back wrt to hating that man and all he stands for

“We must sexually violate you to protect others” is so iconic of transmisogyny

Sorry

Unbridled techno-optimism has become a weird right-wing thing at this point, but folks should really keep in mind that technology has played a key role in shaping society since prehistory. Like, wars have been fought over salt for thousands of years. we solved it — we made salt abundant

I thought this image was of some memorial in the Negev ("they died to make the desert bloom") but no apparently it's the Hoover Dam

𝗢𝗯𝗮𝗺𝗮 don't be such a tease show me your ASS big man Control yourself!! — 💖 𝗪𝗶𝗳𝗲 💍 Can you pick up the kids. Work is keeping me late 💀💀 In a minute. I'm being sexually harassed again by former president Barack Obama. 💬

DID YOU KNOW --that the Book Deuteronomy is SO much abt centralizing the Temple & closing franchise altars -> HR issues, Temple HQ retreats, expensing travel, remote meat management etc? -- they've found weed/THC on Judean altars? (insert "High Priest"/"high places" joke here) Much more here:

The idea of wrestling with God is very important to a lot of Jewish peoples' understanding of our religion. It's the name of our people, and it's an integral part of a lot of our stories - the oven of Akhnai, Sodom and Gomorrah, Moses at Sinai, even the binding of Isaac.

it's sunday. the day you read my manifesto

this guy wore a mask and didn't keep his cell phone on him when he fled and as a result a police department that is itself one of the largest armed forces and intelligence agencies on planet earth is completely flummoxed

Insane that Assad government got completely toppled because of a week long offensive when before that he had held on for decades. Wish there was a quote related to this sort of thing happening but we really seem to be in uncharted waters right now.

Just make sure that they get this Top Trending list from 12/6/2024 into the history books. It does a better job at showing the current situation than I can in any amount of words.

absolutely incredible attack vector

We've always been a fan of blueskies.
