In lieu of finding out that a lot of people wanted to know what footballers (soccer players) were doing wearing "bras" under their shirts, and angrily wondering why anyone would care if athletic men were wearing "bras" or not—*

I have decided that, from this point forward, all undergarments I wear will be referred to as "performance guards." 

Thank you. 



*(They're performance trackers.)

The Uncles' very moving, first-hand account of the riots and arson of Uncle Hugo's/Uncle Edgars along Chicago Ave. in Minneapolis. May, 2020. 

The Uncles is an independent, long-standing bookstore in downtown Minneapolis, MN. Written in owner Don Blyly's own words. 

There is a gofundme page to help the Uncles rebuild. Maybe you can be like Neil Gaiman, who donated $1,000!

The Lost Colony of Roanoke: Did They Survive? – National Geographic, Archaeology, Historical Records and DNA 


This is a very interesting article ... about what it says its about in the title... but one of the great things about it is its ability to dissect what led to the colonists landing in Roanoke. It's quite an extensive history, and of course it dives into the politics of the time period. 

It also explains why DNA is not more widely used to "discover" where the colonists ended up, if they survived. 

My foray into the wondering about it extended from J, after we watched the Buzzfeed Unsolved episode about the lost colony of Roanoke. "Why don't they just do DNA testing on the Native Americans [in North Carolina]...?" J asked, and I was like... "I don't know, but I bet there's a good reason."

Yeah, there is. I won't spoil the last one-third of the article.

Talk Odin to me!


- He is depicted as tall, bearded, and one-eyed, having exchanged an eye for wisdom. [s]


Anybody got anything else about Odin?
