Don’t forget a whole lot of the people who worked for Reagan (who understood very little of any of his policies, between being not very bright and the dementia) also worked for both Bush White Houses.
Nah earthbenders had something to do with this
Postpiles like this occur when large pools of basalt cool under a glacier. The lava freezes on all 6 sides, and then slowly cools on the interior. But because it shrinks as it solidifies (unlike water), that puts the interior under tremendous internal stresses, which tend to break along hexagons (with occasional pentagons and septagons thrown in) because that’s a shape that tesselates while also minimizing perimeter to area ratio (ie the least amount of high-energy cracking needed per volume). And then at some point something weathers the top and sides so you can see it. And yes they are this cool in person.

This formation is close to a glacier. Not sure which one, but you can tell from the telltale blue-green water, which indicates a high concentration of the type of superfine sediment that you get in glacial runoff. And that is also amazing to see in person (water is actually fairly rarely really blue).
Thanks for the explanation! Giant’s Causeway in Northern Ireland/Southern Scotland is another example.
Slavic Cossack dancing known as Hopak
Warning: Do not try this at home unless you were born with super Slavic knee strength
THE GUY AT THE END
Ahahah it’s not just knee strength you need, friend. It’s thighs, ass, ankles, calves, you need everything from your waist down to be horrifyingly fit and toned for this.
Also core strength. So include the waist. Everything from the nipples down.
Don’t forget absurd back flexibility
“Ballet is a really hard dance to master.”
Slavic dancing: “Hold my beer.”
My thighs are burning just watching.
this video just laughed at me for being out of shape.
I had a friend growing up that was from Slovakia or Ukraine, I don’t remember which. I knew him from kindergarten to 2nd grade. And since there wasn’t a large enough slavic community for this kind of dancing, he did competitive ballet. He would constantly complain that it wasn’t hard enough. Guys, its competitive ballet, one of the hardest sports you can be in as a young person. Those C-jumps the guys were doing? In american ballet or dance you usually only get your chest to where you head was. They have their bellybutton or hips where their head was. That’s fucking nuts with out running or a pre jump. This kind of dancing was constantly going on at their house. I would like to point out that’s insane. His mom and dad dance almost every day. Not as high since age. But still.

Full Force offered this song to another artist who turned it down (!!!!).
But if they didn’t we wouldn’t have had this iconic version today.

i may not know a lot abt life but i know it’s how keith haring said “touching people’s lives in a positive way is as close as I can get to an idea of religion” and how kurt vonnegut said “and I urge you to please notice when you are happy, and exlaim or murmur or think at some point, if this isn’t nice, I don’t what is,” and olga jacoby said “to leave a good example to those I love [is] my only understanding of immortality” and felix poswolsky said “I think we found the answer to the universe which was, quite simply: spend more time with your friends”
Actually life is beautiful because the sound I make while trying to breathe around hot food sounds like my dog trying to eat an apple. When I yawn my cat tries to put his face in my mouth like a little dentist man and when he yawns I put my finger in his obligate-carnivore trapzone and we both know he will not hurt me. When I do not fold my clothes, they do not hold it against me.
I am demonstrably sad, and lonely, and full of fear. But there are other people who will hold my hand, who will point out the hawk overhead, who will give you That Look in a public place. The other day at a coffee shop a child said "look! It's snowing!" so all of us strangers went to go look out the windows. It wasn't the first snow and it won't be the last but wasn't it lovely like that?
How wonderful to live in a world where birds and frogs both say beep! How wonderful to have an ocean of beautiful sharks with their dinosaur teeth! How wonderful the moon and her changing face, how wonderful the bees and their dancing to communicate, how wonderful shrimp and their forbidden layers of vision! How wonderful, you, and what you will give the world! The way we love things enough to spend entire blogs devoted to them? How people will let me explain my Pokemon team to them? How we will both jump at the scare in the movie, how we laugh so loudly, how it feels to give someone your baking? How wonderful to be alive. I am sorry for forgetting.
This is the process of getting better. With wonderful people and wonderful strangers and wonderful friends: I am getting better, slowly. Thank you, whoever you are. In some way, you've been wonderful, and left a wonderful place in the world to ripple out to me. In some small way - isn't it beautiful - I promise, you've been helping.

Island biology is always so cool.
It is so so important to show that queer people have always existes and are allowed to live long, happy lives. Young queer people–especially those in conservative areas–need to know that being queer is not a death sentence. Despite the many struggles we have faced, throughout history there have always been queer lives filled with joy and love. and you will find yours.
But when the world needed him most…..
I ain never seen a slinky trick in my life.
“I wanna be a slinky man!” he cried. “Make me a slinky man!”
But the Slinky Master did not answer, he just kept on slinking

I think what really makes this is that his American accent is perfect, he clearly has no issues with English, it's just that the way we spell words is complete bullshit.
