#DidYouKnow ?

If you ask Rick Astley for his copy of the movie Up, he cannot give it to you as he will never give you up. However, in doing so he lets you down. Thus creating the Astley Paradox

[THREAD] I am reading The Woman and The Car, A Chatty Little Handbook for All Women Who Motor or Who Want to Motor by Dorothy Levitt, circa 1909 and it is TOO DELICIOUS not to share with you.

Miss Levitt is known to automotive history as the inventor of the rear view mirror. In her day she was famed as a speed racer of boats and cars, who taught British Queen Alexandra and the princesses how to drive.

She felt women should not have to rely on male chauffeurs or mechanics but be independent.

A romantic black and white of a beautiful young white woman in a fur coat and suede gloves leaning over a steering wheel, as though to embrace it, with a coy smile on her face. Her hair is a poufy 1890s style with a wispy gauze veil sailing out from it into the sky.

Some old blackhouses in the Scottish Highlands weight their thatch down with stones. These ones made me think of those theme park rides where people dangle from a track.

That one in the front has just seen what's coming.

#sillyScribbles #photography #stone #Scotland #silly

A close up photo of an old thatched blackhouse on Skye, with the roof weighted down with smooth oval stones on wire 'hangers'. Only the nearest stone is in focus, but you can see more behind. Beyond the building is grass and a grey sky. Each of the stones has a face drawn on, and arms and legs, sticking out as if they're doing a star jump. They are all smiling except for the one in front who looks surprised.

WHO: "Five years, 10 years, 20 years from now, what are we going to see in terms of cardiac impairment, pulmonary impairment, neurologic impairment? It’s year five in the pandemic, but there’s still a lot we don’t know about it."

A prominent doctor asked
“5 years,
10 years,
20 years from now,
what are we going to see
in terms of
cardiac impairment,
pulmonary impairment,
neurologic impairment?”
and while I do not know
the answer to that question
I imagine our response
will be to deny we are seeing it.

Regardless of income, all mothers in Flint, Michigan can now receive $1,500 mid-pregnancy, followed by $500 a month of #basicincome for 12 months after their child is born. This is the most universal of any guaranteed income program so far, with zero means-testing.

@GottaLaff Sherrod Brown is running neck and neck with Frank LaRose, Ohio's atrocious Secy of State. LaRose is well known for attempted voter suppression and has worked tirelessly to defeat popular citizen initiatives on abortion and gerrymandering.
The race should not be this close. We need Brown in the Senate. As a former Ohioan in a blue state I'll be supporting Sherrod Brown from afar. For the sake of democracy I urge others to do the same if they can.

I’m a Katie Porter fan, but this got my attention. In a very good way.

“Adam #Schiff is calling for a major overhaul of American institutions, including getting rid of the Electoral College, expanding the Supreme Court and eliminating the filibuster.”
