The tennis player Naomi Osaka holding her racquet, arms raised, in front of a net. She's wearing an elaborate all-white embroidered dress with a kimono silhouette, ties in front, and very long rolls of fabric at the sleeves.
https://www.france24.com/en...
Naomi Osaka's kimono dress for Wimbledon—inspired by "Kill Bill" and kirigami--designed in collaboration with Hana Yagi.
"To match the All England Club's strict all-white dress code, the 28-year-old wore a kimono-style ceremonial dress decorated with embroidered cranes and cherry blossom.
"She paired the white outfit with a traditional kanzashi hair ornament featuring white flowers before removing both to reveal a white Nike dress."

A mustachioed man and blonde woman each sit in silly/sleek white 3-wheeled vehicles on a road beside a green field, smug expressions on their faces.
That photo may be a scan of my copy of the magazine. I was so excited by the idea of the C5 (and, at age 15, was in their key demographic). Clive Sinclair never failed to produce a cost-down product, so that (plus UK's absurd road rules) meant the device was shite.
I think I sold the original when we moved to Canada in 2002

Photo of me standing next to a roadside historical marker honoring Andre Roussimoff, known professionally as Andre the Giant. The marker bears the seal of North Carolina and says “K 69 ANDRE THE GIANT 1946-1993 Actor and professional wrestler. Was born Andre Roussimoff. Known for role in The Princess Bride in 1987. Lived nearby.”
I saw the new historical marker honoring Andre the Giant (Andre René Roussimoff) in Ellerbe, NC, that was unveiled in April: https://mltshp.com/p/1ROF7
For anyone considering a visit, it’s conveniently situated by a small rest area.

it's funny, i've always known how phenomenally tall chamberlain and andre were, but for some reason the scale of it never registered to me until i saw this photo for the first time.
like, looking at the clearance under schwarzenegger's feet and realizing he's like 6'3" (in my frame reference, about the same height as my dad) was a real "oh shit" moment.

apparently, left to right, 7 foot 1 inch, 6,2, and 7,4, tho andre's may have been exaggerated by wwe a bit.

Cake label - PEACH PSSNFRT CRUMBLE CAKE
@joffaboy As a dedicated Hawthorn supporter I cringed at this. It is way too close to those terrible other fans suggesting the Hawthorn colours represent pooh and piss.
Piss 'n Fart Crumble Cake? Would still eat, probably.

I'm still unemployed. But taking time to continue to follow creative projects between the endless applications. I just released my 41st asset set, and this is the sample map I made using it.
You can find out more about the set over on my blog: https://kmalx.co/MercatorStlmt
Fun fact about this project, I've recently surpassed half a million downloads across all the sets. Which is wild to think about.

Amazing work! You have so many different sets, and they're all so good.
These are amazing! Thank you!
Can I make a tiny suggestion? If you set the brush spacing wider it would be easier to see each brush shape in the drop down, and it would allow filling large areas quickly without image overlap.

This is perfect timing as I’m secretly doing an Ireland themed map for my next DnD campaign (the BBEG is in a complex surprising similar to Tayto Park - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki...)

Graceland: Cocaine Room #3
alt text
This is the opposite of https://mltshp.com/p/1RSBQ. I've been to The King's house a couple of times in my life. Graceland is pretty much a basic 70's house with plenty of land around it for airplanes and graves. The basement has two small rooms: The Jungle Room (Cocaine Room 2) has 3 little TVs on the wall and this pool room. All of the furniture and close walls render that 9' table useless for actual game play. According to Graceland archivist Angie Marchese, Lisa Marie has always said that a lot of “mayhem” went on in this room.
Can't help but hear "Jungle Room" in Marc Cohn's voice from Walking in Memphis...
That.looks.claustrophobic
Hopefully not a spoiler but this season of "Paradise" featured a lot of this house in a rather fun way.

Snapshot of a curly-haired teenager wearing jeans in a basketball gym (probably his high school's), holding up a yellow warm-up jacket labelled "CHAMBERLAIN".
source: https://www.wweek.com/culture...
"Back in January, Portland teenager Quinn Brown found a Wilt Chamberlain Los Angeles Lakers warm-up jacket in the Goodwill Bins. It cost $3.07. Brown suspected it was the real deal, though, based on its worn appearance and some online photo-sleuthing. The stitch patterns seemed to match the jacket the NBA star wore during the 1972 Finals.
"He was right.
"The gold-and-purple short-sleeved jacket was professionally authenticated and it’s going up for auction at Sotheby’s New York starting July 1. It’s estimated it will fetch $150,000 to $250,000, according to the auction house, which calls the jacket 'rare and significant.'"
Trying to find the thing I saw on how they authenticated it based on some photos of like a 1972 playoffs game, which was also neat.

I just read the story you linked and I just keep imagining being the guy who originally had this in his hands and threw it back in the pile.
@jer Most of the time it's not somebody absentmindedly tossing something they valued, it's usually people (family members, or just cleaners) disposing of the belongings of someone deceased or being moved out of their house to a managed care facility of some kind.
I know somebody who had collected several very large (20' x 30' or so), very legitimate Oriental rugs from their time working in diplomatic corps, each easily worth in the high four, low five digits. They were sold somewhere around $75 each because their heirs had literally two days to clear out an entire house and didn't have time or the means to carefully sell everything that might be valuable.

@ardgedee Naw, I know how things can get from a prior owner into the landfill/Goodwill/whatever. What I'm talking about was this kid was rooting through a bin at the Goodwill with other people intending to find things to resell and someone had grabbed this jacket and thrown it back into the pile.

My mother has some small ones of these they still use for soup bowls. Maybe a larger one, too.
Somewhere recently I saw you could buy a tshirt with this on it.

Wet and moody bicycle riding

A wet gravel road winds its way through a lush green valley, mists hanging in the air.
Pedaled 165 miles on Saturday and Sunday with my camping gear. It was very rainy and quite cold (45ish F) so fortitude was paramount but I persevered and overall enjoyed myself minus a few shivering low points.
Type 2 fun!
I intended to ride 65ish miles Saturday, Sunday, and Monday (today), @mcmjolnir but after 48 hours of mostly non-stop rain the gravel roads I was following were turning to soup and I opted to bail on my type II fun session last evening. I had an exit route planned but it was 50+ miles of tarmac, still in the rain, and with a soul-sucking headwind, so the type II fun continued right up until 9:30pm last night. A textbook definition of type II this weekend for sure!
Super jealous, these are my absolute favorite condition to backpack/camp/hike in (unless there's lightning)! SO GREEN, too.

We’ve been playing Asbury Undergound for maybe 10 years now. This year we played a set just before a long time friend Rick Barry who’s new project, Church and State TM, happens to have Jon Stewart as their, functional if not impressive, drummer. After our set I went back to the green room to put my trombone away and a man, whom I’ve respected for years, reached out and shook my hand and said “You guys were fucking awesome!” So I’ve got that going for me…
What a nice experience
I definitely read that in his voice.
Amazing!
I literally did not know what to do with that information.
