And people say cats can be heartless.

That's service 💛

what a b***h

Juggling hermit crabs?!? 😂

he is not forgotten

not only Germany....

The trick is to tell them not to do it.

What happens to the sunflowers after they die? If they're storing radioactive contaminants in their stems and leaves, do they need to be stored somewhere after they die to prevent the contaminants from leaching back into the soil? Is there a science panda who knows?

In Australia, we use horses instead of opossums in the production of snake antivenins. Rabbits and sheep are also sometimes used.

I am not one to find meaning after death but this seems sensible.

Good. That makes a lot more sense than the usual story of fish eggs hitching a ride on the legs of the ducks. PS. Tomato seeds remain alive when eaten by humans.

Perhaps Bruce Lee was indeed a dragon reincarnate and a being that was out of this world. A legendary man, mad respect *bows*

For similar reasons, the Chinese can read texts that are two thousand years old. Despite the profusion of mutually-incomprehensible spoken dialects, written Chinese has remained exceptionally stable. For comparison, The Canterbury Tales are six hundred years old and are all but unintelligible to an unprepared reader.

When I went to Iceland they described the language as basically being 1000 year old Danish. Whenever I go to country that speaks another language I at least try to learn a few basic phrases. It was the toughest! 😂

Icelandic is one of the hardest languages ​​to learn. But its beautiful

I would love to visit Iceland on time

The language of the Faroe Islands is actually more like Old Norse than the Icelandic language. Old Norse is what the people of Scandinavia spoke in the Viking Age (750-1050-ish). Many everyday words in the English language are from Old Norse; bread, knife, husband, window, boat etc. Even today people from the west coast of Denmark, speaking in their native dialect might be understood by people from England speaking in their own local dialect.

Not just because of isolation, it is because they protect their heritage, instead of introducing new words they repurpouse old one not currently in use.

Gosh, I hope the love letter was addressed to her mom...

around 392 years sounds very specific

PBS American Experience did a great documentary on her. She's often portrayed as a butch woman, but she was extremely ladylike and had a penchant for dressing well and being well groomed. She married a man who was pretty great. Considering Victorian morays about women, he was a chill guy.

If only his cousin was called Roll...just so you could have Rock and Roll

That sounds mythical!

Yet we have local governments who are putting in more restrictions, more lights causing more pollution and claim they do it for green issues. How can closing a section of road 200 meters long causing vehicles to drive an extra 3 KM environmental, especially when it now goes through a residential area and held up at several junctions.

Wow, so they're like cats with flippers.

Seems to run in the family

She did well

...I swear it's looking at me.

those are not igloos, those are hunters huts with half the roof cut away

It's called synesthesia and quite a few people experience this with numbers and colors specifically. But some people also experience a link between other senses like smell, taste, sound, touch. It's very interesting!

Sounds like a must-visit one day :-)

The first? has there been more?

Jamie Foxx is a very underrated nice guy

I guess Holland has a power plant nearby?

They make most of their money selling gifts (like mugs and t-shirts), coins, stamps, and peerages (you too can become a baron for $50).

Poor thing!

Interesting thing: All branches of a tree bound together would be as thick as the stem. Or to say it in other words: If a branch branches into two other branches, those other branches would each be 50% as thick as the original branch

Why are the footprints on the wall?

I live here and did not know this!

If this is true, no man anywhere gets to tell a woman she should smile more ever again.

Bargain

Well, technically everything is edible, it's just that some things are edible more than once.

I know where I would live for 65 days a year if I could

If someone is interested, I can sell it to you... some assembly required after delivery of the parts

In Tokyo or rather Japan?

could be used as a Viagra commercial

Nobody must be pretty lonely

Raw peppers are also very healthy, they contain lots of vitamin C. If you cook them for too long, this will break down. So when it comes to peppers: try eating some raw (especially red) and some (not overly) cooked.
