At the time, I had no idea how they came up with even half the stuff they did.
Now that I’m older, I suspect it was acid. I have no idea how else to explain their vehicles.

Viktor Orbán has proven himself to be an awful person.
But I’ll give him this: when faced with election results in someone else’s favour, he concedes to his opponent. Felon47 has lowered the bar that far.

I’m learning so much by reading @cstross@wandering.shop’s first book. Not only is there a collection of evil majik artifacts in the basement of a museum on Amsterdam (unlikely to be real), there is a herd of cows in Milton Keynes which are made of concrete and have been moved around town occasionally (actually exists; cf link below).

@Alice Even if you did not plan to visit, I think it would be a perfect topic to discuss in public settings using your ‘outside voice’ and how it is “a sight to behold,” a “stirring view,” and something that is “impressive beyond comprehension especially when considering its ability to seemingly just keep going forever.”
I’m certain visits to the location will spike as a result.
