I crave mental lint. What are some interesting facts that the hivemind (you) have stored away?
  • Okay. Ever wonder why pigeons bob their heads? It's so that they can perceive depth. Animals with front facing eyes like ours can tell how near/far something is based on the angle formed by our eyes (called stereopsis). Pigeons, being side-eyed, don't have that option, so instead they compare the percieved size of things as they bob. Things that are closer will "grow" more than things that are far away.

  • Tips for some easy indoor plants?
  • Succulents are a great choice, very much a "less is more'' kind of plant in terms of effort. Also anything bamboo-adjacent, like money trees (I actually have no idea if theyre related or not). They do very well in low light situations, so you could place them opposite a window year-round. Hell, they dont even need soil.

  • How do you find new music?
  • IIRC, there's some sort of algorithm working under the hood that procedurally generates genres/categories. I could be wrong though, it's been a really long time since I read into it.

  • How do you find new music?

    Given we all live in a decidedly niche music sphere, I thought it might be helpful if we share our tips/tricks for finding new artists. Here's my tried and true: everynoise.com

    First real post! My pride and joy!

    Signed by all of Pantera; or so I'm told, never did figure out if/how I could get this authenticated.

    Found this listed on Kijiji well over a decade ago. Buddy didn't really know or care who Pantera was, story goes that he won it in a radio contest when they toured here (that bit lines up, the date he gave was the only time they came here, and there was in fact a radio contest for a guitar). Anyway, I figured the guitar was worth the money on it's own ($500!), so hell, why not.

    Don't know why the photos got rotated...
