Mm. Gonna have to try the two-ingredient mousse recipe. I have a goodly amount of red wine handy.

White stag seen and photographed in southern Ottawa

But which White Stag?

The Arthurian one, here to tell Saber to start a Grail Quest?

The Celtic one, here to reveal the Unseelie to the city?

The Narnian one, here to lead a very very few lucky displacees back to their canon home?

Or maybe Sebastian has finally had time to watch the second season of Black Butler and is just screwing around with everybody.

AP: Plants grow in soil from the moon.

Pop-sci, no link to anything academic. But would Usagi care about that?

To be fair, it was a warm day... but nowhere near as warm as in the American Southwest.

This one's more "human interest" than "news".

Why a Scottish lawyer bought and renovated an abandoned Italian village

An entire town as a displacee residence, anyone?

That is a very cool idea indeed.

(And the village in the article is not the first Italian village converted in its entirety to a resort -- Peg and I were looking at another one somewhere in Tuscany years ago as a potential time share exchange.)

If we're going in that direction, we could have another village set aside for the more dangerous displacees.

I'll just leave this here, pointing out that it's from 2016, on the off chance we ever do something with that residence in Greece and somebody there needs something to make a logical fallacy about.

Found this one backlogging the Discord:

Fujitaka explained, "They carved the images of all sorts of animals and people into the ground with giant trenches.  But the lines are really hard to see from the ground, so it's best to see them in an airplane.  There are theories that the Nazca people made them for their gods, but no one really knows."

Osaka asked, "Or maybe it was for people in UFOs?"

He laughed, "Well, anything is possible."

"Is there one of a cat?" Sakaki asked.

"I don't think so."

The next day,
Tomo greeted her friend, "Hey Ryoko-chan, wanna take me up for a spin in Ryo-Ohki?  I brought beer!"

A giant cat picture was just discovered among the Nazca Lines

Posted a few years back in the planning thread, before I made this thread:

Sakura, did your Twin card take a Mediterranean vacation, or is something more sinister going on?

A rash of candy stores has taken over one of the top shopping streets in the British capital. The question confounding officials: Where did they come from?

Do we need to send Minako back to England?

Autumn McWilliams, who is homeless, takes her “emotional support duck,” Cardi D, everywhere as she goes about her day.

Quote:In the vast array of L.A. weirdness, Cardi D is not that unusual. But she does stand out.

It's the first time I've thought about nail polish for ducks, that's for sure.

That has to be fiction. C'mon, submitting code on time and running? Next they'll be asking that it's documented!

Some Barrister bought and did up Henrietta Street at around the time it would've been in the story

The contrast between what it was and what it is is staggering.

(The what it was, is what the Genaros girls see...... barring a gift of 2 million it'll stay much like that)

I love the smell of rotaries in the morning. You know one time, I got to work early, before the rush hour. I walked through the empty carpark, I didn't see one bloody Prius or Golf. And that smell, you know that gasoline smell, the whole carpark, smelled like.... ....speed.

One day they're going to ban them.

Florida woman fired from teaching after disrupting students ‘performing magic’

Unfortunately the real life story is dumber than the Metacontinuity one. But not by much.
