Another classic NZ regional bus timetable. Call Peter (phone number supplied) if you want the bus to divert 12km return to Rawene to pick you up.

Corporate cattle are primary consumers whose role in the ecosystem is to convert the energy in salads & matcha into usable energy for predators at a higher trophic level. Ideology constructs a narrative to give meaning to the absurd, useless existence of sending emails for 40 yrs

Unbelievable that this is a real book published by the Department of Agriculture in 1965 and isn't the album art of a 90s indie rock band.

Artificial Gravity Space Stations
This is the kind of probe that should be build by the dozens, if not hundreds and should be orbiting every planet/moon within reach. They should be built for pennies on the dollar on a production line with minor modifications for the destinations x.com/Astrophysicsla…

There's this upcoming mission called PERSEUS , a proposed orbiter to Uranus, aiming to study its magnetosphere and provide insights into the planet's interior and the solar wind interaction. PERSEUS will focus solely on Uranus's magnetosphere, making it simpler and more cost-effective. The mission, expected to launch in 2031 and reach Uranus in 2043.. 👉 link.springer.com/article/10.100… Furthermore more, the most anticipated mission by the planetary science Decadal survey is The Uranus Orbiter and Probe (UOP) which is designed to be a long term Mission to study the ice giant... There are also two other proposal missions to Neptune ; Neptune Odyssey and the Interstellar Express / IHP-2 by CNSA...they're both awaiting approval..

Kind of a big giveaway about Musk's real attitude towards Mars is that he never flew any of his early mission concepts (Mars greenhouse, Red Dragon) years after he had the technology and money to make them happen. He always loses interest in the achievable.
Stephen Kelly@StephenMKelly

Before SpaceX, Elon wanted to send a little greenhouse lander to Mars! I still think this would be a great feat for SpaceX to accomplish this before we send Optimus and astronauts! @SpaceX @Tesla_Optimus @elonmusk

Why can't Disney adults be hunted for sport? Make it part of the park experience with rental blowguns for the children. Imagine the joy in a kid's eye after bagging a 270 lb Cory Doctorow at Space Mountain

Great midcentury modern house in Bloomfield Hills, MI. The former home of Detroit artist Richard Bilaitis (1928-2018), longtime art professor at Wayne State University and curator of the university’s fantastic art collection.

I made donuts at Dunkin at night when I was 18 because I wanted to buy a guitar. During the day I worked as a lifeguard. You should not have a night job while you’re a lifeguard during the day. I was exhausted. I slept through three drownings.

Among my hottest takes are: - Disney adults (esp with no kids) are ruining it for families by inflating the cost of everything. - Disney adults should seek therapy to deal with childhood issues, not more trips to Disneyland. - Disney should not cater to Disney adults. It’s for families. It’s for the kids.
The New Yorker@NewYorker

For the most devoted fans, Disney has engineered an ecosystem of financial entanglement that goes far deeper than park tickets or merchandise, which keeps the magic—and the debt—perpetually compounding. In 2023, Ashley, a freshman at Quinnipiac University, in Connecticut, had $15,000 in her bank account. Excited by her newfound freedom as a college student, she decided to start going on solo trips. Walt Disney World, in Orlando, Florida, seemed like an obvious choice. She went during her winter break. Then she returned, six times, in two years. Soon enough, her account balance had dwindled to just five dollars. Perhaps unsurprisingly, many adults who have accumulated Disney debt seem to be chasing a feeling from their childhoods. One woman, who has been to Disney World more than a hundred times, said that visiting the parks takes her back to a time when she had fewer worries: “It’s the nostalgic feeling of what brought you joy when you were little and you didn’t have the stressors of adult life.” Read more about the Disney adults putting themselves in debt for the pursuit of magic: newyorkermag.visitlink.me/_JqtFg
