Two blogs about a whole lot of nothing

Week Something of the Internet

More random crap. Apparently last week didn't live up to someone's expectations (you know who you are), but I'm afraid this week isn't all that either. 9 to 5 and a 7 month-old baby take up all my bloody time. Pfft.

Anywho. This woman gives birth in a car. It's her third child, and is just fine.

Aeroplanes everywhere!

Deep dreaming. 

Radio broadcasts leave Earth at the speed of light. Scroll away from Earth and hear how far the biggest hits of the past have travelled. The farther away you get, the longer the waves take to travel there—and the older the music you’ll hear.

Cool. 

That's all. Sorry it's late. 

Some Space Stuff

Because it's cool. 

Still images taken by ESA astronaut Samantha Cristoforetti on the International Space Station were joined together to create this timelapse.

The launch of STS-134, which was the penultimate mission of NASA's Space Shuttle program and the 25th and last spaceflight of Space Shuttle Endeavour.

All systems go. 

Nippy on Pluto. 

Week Whatever. It's the Internet Who Cares

Back from maternity leave, here I am. Here are things I saved while away, so nothing's really new. Still cool though. 

Here's a lowdown on tattoo styles. 

This is an amazing blog called Jim'll Paint It. Jim paints things in Microsoft Paint.

"Dear Jim, please paint me The Alien Queen, back off maternity leave and bollocking everyone for not using Dropbox properly."

Get your Marvel universe sorted.

If you didn't watch the Women's World Cup, shame on you. England did incredibly well, only falling at the semis due to some really shitty luck. Could have won this thing. USA did though, with an amazing game against Japan. Next one's in France so a great chance to pop across and see it. Roll on 2019! 

The ad below was published just before the Germany game, which we won.

Sobering. 

America is really big. "This map, by Redditor Hormisdas splits America into five districts with around-equal populations to Britain based on data from the US Census. Speaking to i100.co.uk, he explained that the map is roughly accurate but "the regions are actually a tad bit less than the UK's population, since I rounded up to five regions to make them all equal."

Ever wondered why material on public transport has such a distinctive design? It's not a nice reason. 

Here is a video of a heart transplant. It's mad. And bloody, obviously.
