What if the Earth isn't speeding up but the speed will start fluctuating? Just being on Earth will be like standing on the subway.

All I want for the holidays is for Earth’s rotation to stay sped up for long enough to warrant a negative leap second. This will cause a miniature Y2K because countless programmers were lazy and never bothered to account for them. I strongly suspect that they’ll refuse and just hope that the rotation slows down again, because they are cowards and because powerful and evil forces have long campaigned to abolish leap seconds.

End coming soon for Calgary's notorious bus traps https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/calgary/bus-traps-transportation-1.6540546 Calgary's bus traps are - were - one of the most passive-aggressive traffic control measures out there. They are simply big pits dug into the road surface at strategically narrowed points around the city. Buses, fire trucks and other large vehicles are wide enough to pass over them, granting them shortcut access to suburb communities. Most cars are too narrow and fall in. (I've never actually seen a lifted F350 brodozer cross a bus trap, but I bet the city planners who originally specified the dimensions of the traps didn't anticipate the existence of gargantuan trucks in the hands of the public, or that Calgary in particular would become a hotbed of them.)

Also I halfway suspect that most of the people I've seen stuck in the traps over the years are relatively new to the city, and the last thing they thought before getting stuck is "no way would they just put a giant pit in the road, right?" Yes, yes they would.

Isn’t Calgary like twenty or thirty people total? What the problem? This is somehow Bret Hart’s fault isn’t it?

This was pretty obvious from the observation that the best image we have of any star other than the Sun looks like this: Someone is going to comment that this resembles Goatman.

I wish I'd seen the image before I knew the punchline, because now my brain refuses to see anything other than chorizo and I want to see it as a star.

Haven't heard about Anne Heche in a long while, I wonder how she's doing... https://www.tmz.com/2022/08/06/anne-heche-new-video-speeding-residential-street-before-crash/ https://www.tmz.com/2022/08/05/anne-heche-crashes-car-home-burned-fire/ "The crash went down just after noon in the Mar Vista area of Los Angeles. Witnesses tell TMZ, she was driving a blue Mini Cooper and crashed into the garage of an apartment complex. Residents of the apartment complex tried getting Anne out of the vehicle but she put the car in reverse and then sped off. A short time later, she crashed into a nearby home, igniting a fire. The fire was significant and engulfed the house. ... there's a bottle with a red cap in the cupholder next to the gearshift, and it looks like a bottle of alcohol. Anne apparently suffered severe burns in the fire ... you see her clothes are charred as she's taken away on a stretcher. She's covered in a white cloth, when she suddenly sits up on the stretcher and starts flailing wildly as they put her in the ambulance. We're told she's currently in the hospital intubated but expected to live. We're told her condition prevents doctors from performing any tests to determine if she was driving under the influence of alcohol." Apparently the first guy on the scene for the house fire crash started to try to get her out of the vehicle while it was burning, but gave up after he figured she didn't survive the impact. She was trapped in the burning car for 30 whole minutes before EMS got her out so ouch those burns, and I hope the homeowners had that house insured well. She was also really boozed up on her podcast that was recorded monday, saying she had had a hard week what with people at her apartment building interrupting her yoga session(s). Its been taken down since. But godamn, I remember in the 90s Heche was a punchline for getting crazy but I figured she had settled down since then. Actor Thomas Jane of the Punisher, who is her ex, is visiting her in the hospital, just another hollywood layer to it all. Hope lessons were learned.
