The US promised a visa to my Afghan interpreter. Now it's been revoked
The US promised a visa to my Afghan interpreter. Now it's been revoked:
Matt Zeller: My interpreter saved my life. Now the Taliban want to kill him, and the US is stalling on his visa. This isn’t right

In another installment of “things I need in my life”, I bring you Scientifically Sweet’s Spiced Apple Cream Cheese Coffee Cake.
It’s an apple pie. And a cheesecake. And a spiced coffee cake. If it wasn’t 11 PM over here, I’d be making this right now.

Trifolium incarnatum aka Crimson Clover. Family Fabaceae. Native to most of Europe (but can be found in North America). It’s an invasive annual, although if you simply cut it down before it goes to seed you’ll be fine.

innerbohemienne: A 110 million-year-old fossil of Cleoniceras...
A 110 million-year-old fossil of Cleoniceras ammonite, found in Madagascar. Ammonites are extinct cephalopods that lived in shells. Their closest modern relatives are nautiluses, octopi, squid, and cuttlefish. Like the nautilus, ammonites gradually added onto their shell to accommodate their increasing body mass. As they extended the shell they built a wall behind them, closing up the now too-narrow portion of the shell as they moved into the larger portion of the spiral.
Unlike the nautilus, the morphology of the tissue wall ammonites built between the chambers is not just a smooth curved wall. Instead it has a bizarrely complex 3-dimensional fractal shape. These are called “suture patterns” and mark the intersection of the septum walls with the shell. Scientists can’t agree why these walls are so complexly furrowed or even how they formed.

All That the Rain Promises and More… (David Arora)
I was in Mt. Shasta when I first saw this book. It was in the Flora & Fauna section of a used bookstore but sadly, it was display-only and wasn’t for sale. If it was for sale, I would have bought it immediately. This is the coolest mushroom book I’ve ever come across. If I wasn’t a broke college student, I’d buy it right now. But I am a broke college student, so it’s going on my Christmas list. Also, the mycologist who wrote it is a fucking badass cool guy and his house is adorably cozy-looking and I’ll post pictures of his house.
I generally don’t reblog, but jeez, this deserves as much coverage as possible. This guy kind of reminds me of a character that could emerge from the movie “Pink Flamingos”, except his fly is zipped.

The penultimate Monkees record (not counting reunions), and possibly the weirdest and also possibly the best Monkees record made by the Monkees.

awesome job, Krispy Kreme
I’m pretty sure a krispy kreme ad just summarized my views on health better than I can.
Give the ad agency an award or something!
