  • “I was on something like page 16 of Google search and found a radar survey done by a Mexican organisation for environmental monitoring,” explains Luke Auld-Thomas, a PhD student at Tulane university in the US.

    It was a Lidar survey, a remote sensing technique which fires thousands of radar pulses from a plane and maps objects below using the time the signal takes to return.

    But when Mr Auld-Thomas processed the data with methods used by archaeologists, he saw what others had missed - a huge ancient city which may have been home to 30-50,000 people at its peak from 750 to 850 AD.

    the full section on that. he was looking for the lidar data to analyze.

    I’m not sure why they didn’t just ask the group doing the lidar sweeps for the data, though. I find it hard to believe they’d tell an archeologist ‘no’ for some reason.





  • They don’t even pay attention. They will literally tell canvassers that they will decide who they are voting for based on what the paper says.

    I had a conversation with my dad recently about it. he’s been a life long republican. In any case I had to remind him that I told him in 2016 that Trump was quoting hitler almost-verbatim. The only difference was that a) it was a more or less direct translation into english, and b) ‘jews’ were exchanged for ‘muslims’.

    he also kept demanding sources and I’m like ‘the source is trump speaking. trump said that himself. this is a direct quote’. (for example the ‘Dictator on day one’ comment.) same goes for political violence. same goes for everything in the 2025;

    like fucking hell, it’s exhausting. I tossed in the source on Fox being a right-wing propaganda rag for good measure.







  • dude clearly dominated her mind.

    Like.

    No way those pickup lines in AoTC actually did it or her. Not after she was banging Obi.

    (oh. You don’t think Obi and her got together? Watch AoTC again, the scene where they’re going to meet her in the apartment? She bounces and hugs Obi. She’s like “Ani? oh its. you.”)







  • They do that so that legally your wife can open the advertisement. They don’t and you wanted to be a loser, you could report her for tampering with your mail. I’m not sure what the postal investigator would do. “Knock it off and call a divorce lawyer” might feature somewhere in the possibilities.

    In any case they’re just pulling names off a list some where. They assume you’re married and in a typical cis relationship.

    Same reason they add “or current residents” as well.

    They want it read, they don’t care if it’s you or your wife or the luchador that’s randomly moved in with you.
