This is so eerily dystopian. It's Sherwood Village, formerly the Sheridan Center, in Mississuaga, Ontaria, Canada.

I also get jokes sometimes.

Great picture, and great story alongside it -- commiserations on the film.

You've put Lightyears by The National firmly in my head; I'll be humming that all day!

It's just a set photo. It never happened on film.

You're confusing it for GOG.com.

I believe Gog Magog is when a person delivers a long, uninterrupted speech.

A video shot across my doomscrolling feed in which Colbert was talking to Peter Jackson about the missing Fellowship chapters to do with Crickhollow and the barrow downs, so I guess it'll somehow be about those events.

The salad. It's a real mind-bender.

The final year or two is anecdotal. "I don't have data for this period, but I did recently meet a really short American dude, so they're probably trending shorter."

Hundreds of people literally and directly asked for this -- and that's ignoring the votes on posts that were merged as duplicates.

Window management has barely improved in decades in mainstream OSs. We've got snapping in Windows and macOS* but that's only useful if you want your two windows to take up the total screen real estate between them. Others, you're manually adjusting both windows - it's messy and not ideal.

*I've only used headless Linux for a long time, so I don't know what the scene is over there.

They seem to have since taken more drastic measures to stop people pissing into their cellar.

 

A total of $3011 was raised for the Cancer Research Institute during Creation Mod Con this weekend - thank you all so much 🤍

If you were hoping to see some of the other locations that appeared in the polls, keep an eye on our Twitch channel in the coming days for a glimpse at some of what we missed 👀

The Crabtree effect is where Saccharomyces and Brettanomyces yeasts digest carbohydrates both anaerobically – producing ethanol, an antiseptic – and aerobically. Most yeasts in the presence of both sugar and oxygen prefer to only convert these to carbon dioxide and water, which is considerably more efficient but doesn't deter competitors for that sweet, sweet sugar.

Who knew botflies could be cute?
