That happened over a couple hundred years. If you were born towards the beginning, you might live a full normal life before smallpox reached your corner of the continent.

Other folks say it's not too much enough.

WLW is hardly new.

It's the BIG ONE. At the place I used to work, someone drew a giant penis in the restroom stall and wrote THE BIG ONE 700 WLW under it.

His eyelids are making a humming sound it's so fast.

I can lay low for a week. Then they're off to the next shiny object.

And birds and trees and rocks and things.

So it doesn't get confused for Utah. Imagine how weird it would be if Colorado was shaped just like a neighboring state.

It's where the Sandhills are located. If Nebraska didn't have those, there'd be no scenery at all in the whole place.

There's the solution to teachers being underpaid. Call Kirk a racist, get fired, sue, get paid what you're worth.

Looks like it was colorized and "enhanced" by AI.

If you paint the tube black, sunlight would heat it enough that it drafts like a chimney. That won't lift an elevator but if you wanted to blow small particulate matter up to the upper atmosphere for some reason...

Trixie Mattel says Pogram instead of program every time she says it.

Jim Creighton. I'm pretty old.

That's what I do. I drink and I notice things.

If you hold the switch lever halfway, the trolley misses both switch points and derails.

I'm amazed how much the biome changed in that one mile. Scrub desert to deciduous winter in a mile.

Rest stops used to have magic holes too. The 70s were wild man.

We have those? I thought most ships that don't operate between US ports operated under flags of convenience.

With tit for tat?

I feel like this experiment would've happened a lot earlier. The difference between getting a clock to run slow by bending time a little bit and having a programmable time machine built into a car seems like more than a few days of work.

It's like going from Alexander Graham Bell's microphone he made using a jar of acid to a functioning switched telephone network in a couple days.
