Buzzfeed?  Are you trying to race Tim to the bottom?
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny.

I sometimes watch clips from the Buzzfeed youtube channels; usually they disappoint.

This does not paint a very positive picture of vegans but I wonder if that's a result of cherry picking.

The vegans I knew would not have made attractive portraits either.  Lot of hair on the women.

Vegans are like Athiests. Usually annoying.

I knew one fairly intimately, did get her shave her legs eventually.  So that was a victory.

It is just another internet mob ready to destroy whomever catches their wrath.

I've no qualms abut reading buzz feed.  :blurgh:

My friend found this carving in Croatia. Any idea what it represents?


The Larch

Where in Croatia? The double cross or patriarchal cross is a common motif in heraldry over Central/Eastern Europe. It's on Slovakia's and Hungary's coat of arms, for instance.

Brazen

Rijeka on the coast in the north. I've seen the double cross a lot, but the rest is a mystery, I wouldn't even know what to Google!

Syt

Clearly this is the Holy Turnip of Rijeka, a relic of Saint Radovan who repelled the Turks with a barrage of flaming turnips.
I am, somehow, less interested in the weight and convolutions of Einstein's brain than in the near certainty that people of equal talent have lived and died in cotton fields and sweatshops.
