Absolutely love this 💜 It's sad, cuz I used to work in tech as a PM, and about 80% of all programmers I worked with were sexist neckbeards. That's actually why I quit, I couldn't take the awful treatment anymore. Funny how computers, wifi, computer code, and the internet itself wouldn't exist if not for women. Ada Lovelace, Margaret Hamilton, Hedy Lamarr, and Radia Perlman, we owe everything to you.

The resemblance is uncanny.

Adorable!

Beautiful

Masks even then.

The Lambulence

You would only get me on a cruise ship by force or drugging. Terrifying.

Are they extraordinarily tall or is he extraordinarily small?

banana for scale?

Why are those guys guards? They could BOTH easily be centers. (It's a basketball joke; guards position away from the net; Centers are usually the tallest guys on the team.)

If you've seen Deuce Bigalow, you'll know.

I bet they were pretty easy to out maneuver and run away from. Intimidating guys but probably ends there.

I’m not so sure the photographer is posing !

I believe in one of Steve Quayle's books he stated that these two were over 8' 6".

To Serve Men

Maybe this is just small man - I mean even the pith helmet he's holding looks huge in his hand.

Do they play basketball??

Why don't I believe this?

See! Giants exist!

They are or were very tall. Elite riflemen at the time.

I have read about giant skeletons being found in the middle east.

Trees are strung together at a height and angle that serves to block the road from the view of enemy watchtowers. All the enemy lookout sees is forest and trees, but not vehicles or roadway.

Everything about this picture is so sweet, right down the white flowers because that was Diana's favorite color! 🤍

He looks all shook up.

"Best friend" considering she was openly bisexual? From what I understand, her husband, Diego Rivera, was not a very good husband to her, so she may or may not have had an affair (or multiple affairs) with a woman. Someone please feel free to correct me if I'm wrong, this is coming from my own dusty memory banks. ETA: Wow a lot of you are assuming that I don't think Frida Kahlo can keep it in her pants JUST because she's bi. She has had relationships with women and history has an annoying way of heteronormalizing things (is that a word? Screw it, it is now). So it's therefore reasonable to wonder (NOT assume, but just wonder) if there was more to this friendship. I am NOT making assumptions. Go be mad at someone who is actually a bigot. You're wasting your time with me.

And a very unimpressed kitty.

most gamers will beat this

Photo taken in Snow King Resort, Jackson, WY. Operational between 1951 and 1978, it replaced a similar single seater arrangement operational since 1946, that reused posts and cables from an ore tram built in the '30s for a mine close by. It was replaced in 1981 be a modern Doppelmayr Garaventa double chair lift. Removed in 2014. There are several photos like this floating around because this was taken in a spot that was specifically designed for touristic photos, to give impression of being at height, while in reality the seat was barely 3 meters from the ground for the whole run. The uncropped photos show the bushes/small trees just below. It was not exactly safe, but forced perspective is the main factor here.

I think we (americans) need a new name for our ball. What's latin for "pointy-ended ball that bounces in all directions"?

"Should have kept it in your pants, Larry!"

People on 1969: quietly takes picture. People in 2023: calls 911, child protection services, fbi, cia, dea, nsa, nasa, cnn, nbc, and fox news, while going live on both instagram + tiktok and screaming threatening the young mom.

She looks the same! How?!

Photograph is a treasure!!!

Her sister published a book about her life because she wants her to be remembered for her life more than her death.

Gateway to cigars.

What? Tuition is going up to $110.00 per semester!

The Shining, Part II

This, to me, is still the scariest movie of all time. It leaves me feeling horrible inside. When my parents were dating, they went to this, and my mom had to leave early. On the way out, they had stretchers along the wall. Then again my mom likes to embellish things so the stretchers may not have been there.

Great photo composition

Cute

There is always a point in illness where you'll consider anything
