Spring in Belgrade Serbia 2024

There were some maladies involved in getting from Datça to Belgrade. Thankfully, at this point in my travels I’m somewhat “inoculated” from freaking out – it really doesn’t change anything. In short, the trip was a messy experience that I’m planning to forget ASAP. :o) Writing about it is a catharsis of sorts. Street Art Mediterranean Storm After weeks of clear, picture-perfect weather, the night…

While we’re all calling this guy an idiot and it is definitely deserved, I think Miles Bron also works as an example of how someone might not notice something dumb if they aren’t paying attention or don’t know about the thing.

Like “inbreathiate.” It’s obviously not a word and it’s pretty noticeably not a word. But personally, I assumed he was just being silly. It’s kind of similar to calling his house a “reclamation.” The first time I watched this I thought “huh wonder what he’s reclaiming” and then its just like “I think you mean ‘a representation’ but I really have no fucking clue what goes through your thick head.”

And then there’s “that is the Aegean Sea.”

I could be wrong but I’m pretty sure we’re never actually told what sea they’re on. We know they’re in Greece and that the ferry takes about 2 hours to get to the island but I’m pretty sure the first time we get a location is Miles saying “swim in the Ionian sea.” And we have no reason to think otherwise because there’s no map or any mention of it.

There are a lot of times when you expect someone to know what they’re talking about, and if you don’t know anything about it you’re going to assume they’re right. Like for example, if you assume that someone who owns a car company knows at least a bit about cars and you know nothing, you might not be very skeptical when they say something anyone who does know about cars would immediately clock as bullshit.

Or maybe I’m just unobservant and you guys immediately clocked him as dumb. Also possible.

Tubbos been dead for a week and brought back. you know what that means???? his joints are fucked up, he sits for a while and it's like the bones in his knees and his elbows have been frozen over. Sometimes his eyesight just goes like there's a film over his eyes and it takes like a minute or two to go back to normal. sometimes his arms themselves get really stiff after effects of going into rigor mortis. He also has scars from waking up in lava.

He smells like chemicals sometimes cuz youre body died and the chemicals change and shit. Hes also really fuckin pale like u can see his veins kinda pale. Mmmmmmmm and I think parts of his body are still decomposing.

Also it takes a minute for his organs to start up again cuz you know...... he died

When he goes to sleep he feels like he's dead all over again. So now he stays up even longer

Ma l'estate, non avrebbe potuto defilarsi di nascosto (senza rompere i...) invece di un'uscita di scena plateale con addirittura un Uragano?!

"The Libya flood disaster was driven in part by the meteorological bad luck of Daniel coming ashore directly atop a compact zone of higher elevation. That’s only part of the story, though. Human-induced climate change is loading the dice, enhancing the ability of tropical cyclones and similar storms to produce extreme rain as they draw more water vapor out of oceans into a warming atmosphere."

Your Daly Devotional: Of James, Tyne and Timothy Daly

It takes being a biographical blogger to know how common some surnames are in certain fields, and there are a LOT of actors named Daly, Daily or Daley: Augustin Daly, Arnold Daly, Dan Daly (and his siblings), Dan Dailey (different spelling), Peter F. Dailey, and Bill Daily. If any of these folks are related its probably way back in the timeline and in the old country (Ireland). Today we look at…

Medicane

Questo termine nasce dalla contrazione dell’inglese Mediterranean hurricane e serve a definire un tipo di ciclone che si manifesta sul Mediterraneo, come quello che ha devastato la Libia nei giorni scorsi, causando la rottura di due dighe che hanno liberato una quantità d’acqua mostruosa riversatasi sulla città di Derna, con migliaia di morti.

Il medicane è un fenomeno abbastanza raro nel Mediterraneo, ma oggi rischia di diventare frequente, perché in tutto il bacino c’è stato un cambiamento nella circolazione dell’aria. In passato era legata all’anticiclone delle Azzorre, con la salita di anticicloni africani. Quando l’aria molto calda di questi anticicloni si inoltra verso il centro o nord Europa, l’aria che sale viene sostituita da aria fredda che scende ai suoi lati , a Ovest e a Est. Su questi lati si forma un ciclone, con venti che ruotano in senso antiorario e precipitazioni molto forti. Questi eventi sono favoriti dal mare Mediterraneo estremamente caldo: si crea vapore acqueo, si formano le nuvole, l’atmosfera si riscalda e quando non riesce a trattenere tutta quella energia la scarica sui territori circostanti. Il cambiamento climatico è uno dei fattori che provoca questi eventi, l’altro è la vulnerabilità e la fragilità dei territori.

Avant ou Après le Déluge? Don’t wait, start preparing now!

By Hughjarrs….. The immense flooding in Pakistan is yet another reminder of the power of nature and that it has a total disregard for the cares of humankind. It is also a reminder that here, in Cyprus, we should be preparing now for the winter storms to come. (more…)
