Look, I’m just saying, theoretically if everyone threatened to assassinate Donald constantly there’s not much law enforcement could do about it. Volume and quantity would begin to outweigh intent.

Obviously it’s not something you should bandy around at work, or in front of police officers, but still. Just, as a thought experiment, if you wanted to start ending all your texts with, “off to brutally murder POTUS with a chainsaw,” it would significantly cheapen the words. And if everyone did it, chances are the average person would face no consequences for it, because how are you supposed to punish everyone? For a joke no less?

It’s just an interesting thing to think about, completely theoretically.

Anyway, gotta go, my flight leaves soon, I’m planning on shoving a corrupt New York business tycoon into a woodchipper.

In cars two at the airport the cars have to go through tsa checks and take off their wheels and stuff which implies the cars Universe had a 9/11

Wait. Oh my god. But planes are sentient in the cars universe. Did cars hijack the plane or did the planes fly themselves.

Nobody knows

Here’s advice from a congressman on how to actually enact change during the Trump presidency. Rep. Steve Israel sat down with us to lay it all out:

MESSEGE. THIS.

House Republicans introduce bill that allows cutting federal workers’ pay to just $1

Welcome to the Trump era.

And from the article: “…the provision comes soon after Trump’s transition team requested lists of federal employees, like scientists who work in the Energy Department.”

Dear Goddess be merciful on us all.

One of my favorite thing I’ve learned about animals studies is that you should avoid using colorful leg bands when you’re banding birds because you can accidentally completely skew the data because female birds prefer males with colorful bands

Apparently if you put a red band on a male red wing blackbird his harem size can double

So like you can completely frick up the natural reproduction of a group of birds by giving a guy a bracelet so stylish that females CANNOT resist him

Archaeologists working at the San Miguel de Azapa Museum in Arica, near Chile’s Atacama Desert – the driest desert in the world – are scrambling to preserve the region’s glaciated mummies, before they disintegrate into goo.

Rising humidity levels in the area have been causing their skin to fall off and their innards to turn into black sludge, despite the fact that the mummies have remained intact in the area for thousands of years, frozen into the region’s permafrost. Scientists believe that this shift in local climate, caused by the fog rolling in off the Pacific Ocean for the past ten years, is due to the effects of climate change.

Acting as a sort of natural cryogenic chamber, glaciers across the planet are capable of preserving specimens over long periods of time. Bodies have been found there dating to 3300 BC that were so perfectly preserved that the people who discovered them thought that they were recent murder victims. Cooled by permafrost and seasonal cycles of ice and snow, specimens trapped inside glaciers and ice fields should, theoretically, be preserved forever – but the reality is that they are now melting at an astonishing rate due to climate change. And unfortunately, this process has not taken kindly to mummies that have been unearthed by increasing humidity levels.

(Click here to see a previous post of a bog body, and how perfectly preserved it was. You can even see the beard whiskers on his face. #tbt literally one of the very first posts ever on this blog.)
