Ad for an "Auto Strap for front-seat tots" from a 1961 Sears catalog. A photo of a maybe 2-year-old child standing on the front seat of a car, looking out the window. It wears loose khaki pants and white t-shirt, and is restrained by a harness that goes over its shoulders and around the waist, connecting to a strap tucked into the back seat cushion.
The ad copy reads, "Guards your child as you're busy driving through traffic. Let's him sit, stand, kneel or sleep without disturbing the driver. Prevents spills from sudden stops. Heave web harness attaches to safety strap that snaps to car seat frame. Removes easily. Also use as a walking harness. For 1 to 10-year-olds. Fits any car. Shpg. wt. 2 oz. 49 G 2945.....$1.88"

Better than nothing I guess but Junior's still gonna get flung around like a cat toy when the car hits an unexpected rough patch of highway.
US is working hard to reverse that trend.
HOW DOES HE KEEP HIS BEER UPRIGHT???!?!
I had a little seat which hooked over the back of the middle front bench seat, with it's own steering wheel.
When we went on family trips in our Renault 4, my parents were in fron and three kids on the rear bench. And then I and my sister sat on a second folding bench facing backwards, with maybe 30 cm (10”) of headroom between our heads and the rear window. We all lived.
(Don’t let me tell you about how my parents transported three kids on a normal bike.)

The logo for the software and gaming company Panic. It is a circle with ten curved bumps on the edge, resembling a seal or stamp. Set in the center is a square, geometrically precise letter P. The logo is in slightly blurry rainbow colors on a black background. The painting is signed "Chris Silverman".

Very grainy photo of a roof
'October 26, 2026, is widely recognized as the 200th anniversary of the first-ever photograph by French inventor Nicéphore Niépce. “View from a Window at Le Gras” was thought to have been taken on October 26, 1826'

As Andrea would tell it, as far as my photos are concerned, we only have one cat*… but the truth is any time I try to take Cookie’s picture she comes barreling towards me for lovin’!
Heh.

9 salted sardines
In the Algarve
Oh heck yes!
When I’ve been there, I’ve had sardines at least twice per visit. I’ve been tolg it’s a “plebeian” choice and “workers” food. I don’t care. Fresh caught and not frozen, they’re delicious.

Oh wow this looks amazing and hilarious.
Also watching Jared Keeso's skills as a creator/artist grow has been a real joy.

Got up at 5am and went to walk up a mountain on the weekend, with a 7 year old. Maybe 400-600m of ascent, so nothing crazy, but we were already at over 2000m to begin with. Kiddo got tired but took it like a champ.
Gorgeous!

The Office whiteboard meme, but the first panel says "I've got a joke about trickle down economics" and the second says "but 99% of your won't get it."
I like the exchange later in the thread where someone says "Wait- Robert Reich found tumblr?" and he replies with "I've been here the whole time," the line his son says at the start of every episode of Game Changer.

The cover to a comic book, "Three-Dimensional Seduction of the Innocenet", showing a curvy brunette pinup in elbow-length-purple glvoes, stockings, a witch's hat with jack-on-lanterns on it, and very skimpy black clothing covering her crotch and breasts. She's posed in front of a full moon with bats flying across it. Behind her is a stack of jack-o-lanterns; buried in the stack is a single severed head.

Pic of a bell tower threatening to collapse.
Pisa, Italy.
Pisa, Italy.
Laying on that tourist shit with a trowel.
Just after World War II ended, by dad was an MP in Italy. One of his jobs was to stand at guard at various spots on the tower. Mostly this was to keep American soldiers from doing not-so-nice touristy stuff at night.
Empty threats, so far. They should offer the Nobel Prize for Engineering, to whomever successfully brings it back to level. Too beautiful to leave in such disarray.
@0y3ahSansAcut3 It is beautiful, the details is amazing.
There was a suggestion once to do something but I don't know if anything came of it. Italy is a different country, in many ways.

IIRC they did some correction a few decades ago actually straitening it slightly and preventing future tilting. I think part of the argument for not fully straightening it was simply that it'd no longer be the leaning tower then.
@homerj @roonie @0y3ahSansAcut3 Many years ago, when I was a young lad in architecture school, my architectural history professor told us the story that as they were building it, it started its famous lean due to poor engineering of the foundation, and they corrected the engineering of the upper floors to compensate. In short: if you were to straighten it, the structure would be off and it would fall over. I cannot prove this is true, but I choose to believe it because it's funny story, and that professor was not a funny guy. Also if you squint funny at the upper three floors, yeah, it kinda does look like they compensated.
I always avoid tourist traps on holidays, but when I finally made it to Pisa and saw this thing I was absolutely blown away. I was lucky and the grass was green and not yellow and downtrodden, but the white tower and battistero are so beautifully positioned, not surrounded by a stone piazza, but by a grass field. The contrast between the grass and the white buildings is gorgeous. Even if the tower wouldn’t lean it would have been gorgeous, but the angle does add a bit to the overall effect. 10/10
To echo @mare, I was dubious of Pisa because Tourist Traps, but found it to be a wonderful place to visit.
