Reblogging because the rest of the world needs to learn to move their lighthouses.
Because they are blocking freedom.

First saw this story years before the internet existed. Still not sure if it’s real or just anecdotal. But it makes me laugh like a damn hyena every time I see it.
I hiked for 3 hours today and got a ridiculous number of excellent photos, thanks to a cloudy/overcast morning sky. They will trickle their way here. This is going to be quite a photogenic fall.

Why Are American Health Care Costs So High? (by vlogbrothers)
What You Just Saw:
ORIGINAL: By the incomparable John Green, who says the following about his sources: “For a much more thorough examination of health care expenses in America, I recommend this series at The Incidental Economist and The Commonwealth Fund’s Study of Health Care Prices in the U.S. Some of the stats in this video also come from this New York Times story.”

Oh great, everybody on facebook discovered John Green.
*Throws self into a pit of dirty heroin needles.
I heard people rave about The Fault In Our Stars many times on here. I read the description of the book and knew I would never touch it.
Well, I did not know he was an author. I assumed John/Hank were just tumblr famous.
They love cartoons
Hoping to get this boosted, because maybe it can save someone from hard times and get them a job at whatever establishment this racist ass manager is at.
(this was on NYT FB article posting about a (Black) mother Google searching her unborn child’s name to see what connotations and future it could hold for him)And then you have people justifying this action. But a meritocracy exists right?
There we go… BOOOOOOST THIS SHIT!!!!

50 years of the Cassette Tape
SEAMAN (SN) Daniel Rosen dubs audio tapes during his off-duty hours aboard the guided missile frigate USS SIMPSON (FFG 56) in the Persian Gulf, 03/11/1988
Pardon us while we rewind back a week — we missed the 50th anniversary of that ubiquitous symbol of 80s pop culture, the audio cassette tape, first introduced by the Philips Corporation on August 30, 1963 and launched on September 13, 1963.
The cassette tape wasn’t just for making your high school crush a mixed tape; they were used by the Federal government as well. Alan Walker, archivist, took pictures of these cassette tapes that are part of Record Group 64 (records relating to the National Archives). These cassette tapes hold the minutes of National Archives Advisory Council Meetings from 1977 to 1979.
What was on your favorite mix tape?

A Russian zoo is home to a unique animal - the liger. It is half-lioness, half-tiger. Mother Zita is pictured licking her one month old liliger cub
I DON’T GIVE A SHIT WHAT YOU CALL IT LOOK AT HER HAPPY LITTLE FACE IN THE LAST PICTURES SHE’S SO PROUD OF HER LIL CUB AND HER SPOTS AND SHE’S GOTTA BE TOUGH MOMMA WHEN THE BABY’S LOOKING BUT AS SOON AS THEY TURN AROUND, SHE’S LIKE,
":3 Look at it. I made a thing. I made a rly good thing. :3"
Actually, that’s a bit of a miracle that she could even produce a cub. Like mules, Ligers are sterile 99% of the time, and considering how extremely rare ligers are to begin with - this is nothing short of miraculous.
