It’s actually designed for rain, and adapted for the extreme rains expected with the torrents and downpours resulting from climate change. It looks nice upstream, and the work will continue downstream where there are currently porous drain planes and culverting.
Artificial river/stream, in Stockholm, Sweden.
The picture looks like it’s AI generated for a The Onion piece. 😂
At least they had compassionate nurses…
Painted into a corner, the Nusslocks were forced to drive to a nearby facility that was not bound by religious restriction — but not before a nurse at Providence handed them a bucket and some towels “in case something happens in the car.”
I love jackdaws. They’re smart and mischievous.
He was (likely) wrongfully imprisoned for a crime that occurred 26 years ago. So it’s both long imprisonment and the costs of trying to overturn the conviction, including fact seeking, labs, lawyers, prosecutors, judges etc.
Where?
The Erasmus program enabled a lot of Britons to study abroad and widen their perspectives. I think it brought a whole lot of benefits to the UK, and while it obviously benefited almost every youth participating in it, I think that the UK as a whole probably benefited the most.
The article was very well written. Unfortunately, 90% of the people I’d forward it to would be TLDR…
Share your own experiences.
For my part, life and (way too many family) deaths has interfered with any serious social engagement including moderating the communities I tried to start. Most of the mad Facebook shit is something I myself had to block because of mental health.
But feel free to contribute.
Except the bystander effect mentioned in the “original” Kitty case is not the same as a shocked “We’re here and what the fuck just happened in the last two seconds!?”.
I’ve been an eye witness, and it’s a serious difference between “a few seconds of something horrible happening” and “wtf, someone is doing prolonged horrible deeds and murdering someone”.
I sincerely hate Makowiec, but will eat it out of politeness (and will poke out some stuff due to “gluten”).
Had a funny funny with it at a festival a couple of years ago, just post the Covid restrictions. Had eaten a heavy load of poppy pastries that last week due to relatives birthdays and christenings, and I was pulled into “routine testing” as I was in a pretty “Happy” company at the festival where we all were held over night because some had taken illicit funsies.
Yeah, was a lot of misunderstandings and not fun.
OC, but not ”my” photo. Posted with permission by the person who took the photo this morning.
Found this on the sidewalk yesterday. Probably (tastefully) arranged by someone, but as it’s late summer in the middle of a heat wave it stood out.
Taken from a Swedish news broadcast (a sad story about a father and his child who drowned when swimming in a river).
I've been watching Trucker Dashcam // Sweden while cleaning around the house today, so this is from another one of his videos. His one of the nicest truckers I've ever heard of. He mainly does dashcam compilations nowadays, and includes videos from friends and subscibers as well.
The GIF is severely cropped and small, sorry. Used ImgFlip again, will look into some better options soon.
In the clip (and the timestamp in the below timed link) you see the trucker approaching a toll station. Apparently "clever" car drivers think it makes more sense to take the pedestrian/bike path to avoid the toll station and instead save a few SEK.
Edit: Changed link for the pic to another site
