This is pretty cool. I did not know this. I can’t imagine having to stay locked down for months at a time. Wanted to share with y’all. The Rare Sunlight of a Submarine Patrol, A U.S. Navy ballistic missile submarine breaks the surface, and for a few hours her crew trades the fluorescent glow of the control room for something they rarely see on patrol: direct sunlight. Towels line the long, flat missile deck from the sail almost to the stern. Submariners can go weeks, sometimes months, without stepping into daylight. When the mission allows, the captain calls the crew topside for what the fleet informally calls a "steel beach" break. It is less a party than a physiological reset. Navy medical researchers have actually studied this. Data from the Naval Submarine Medical Research Laboratory found submarine crews consistently come back from patrol vitamin D deficient, and that just a handful of days of sun exposure can offset weeks spent without it. The image is not just downtime. It is closer to a prescribed dose of sunlight. The Navy has run dry ships for over a century, but there is one narrow exception. After 45 or more continuous days at sea, a commanding officer can authorize a single "beer day," often timed to coincide with a break like this one. Rare, brief, and earned.

London's Fourth Plinth in Trafalgar Square just got a new statue: "Lady in Blue" by New York artist Tschabalala Self. Ten feet tall, bronze, painted in a blue pigment based on lapis lazuli. It depicts an anonymous young metropolitan woman striding forward, meant to represent an "everywoman" rather than any monarch or military figure. Self's own words: "She is not an idol to venerate or a historic figure to commemorate. She is an everyday person much like the many who occupy the square daily." It's the 16th commission on the Fourth Plinth since 1998, chosen by an independent panel back in 2024 & will stand for two years before the next piece replaces it. Reactions online are split hard, with some calling it a bold, overdue update to a square historically full of monarchs & generals while others are calling it an embarrassment that doesn't belong there. 🙄 Trafalgar Square's newest addition has already become the next big thing everyone's arguing about today.

DHS Secretary confirms Rep. Illhan Omar married her brother, investigation pending.

Was recently in a neighborhood with a median home price of $650,000. Cars I saw in the driveways: - Nissan - Ford - Honda - Hyundai - Toyota Please understand most well off people are not driving luxury cars.

Let the homebuilders do their thing and they'll build what the market wants.

𝗦𝗢𝗨𝗥𝗖𝗘: Michigan’s players are already at odds with Whittingham and Beck A source granted anonymity told me this isn’t about the Western Michigan score. It’s about the offense they were sold Players were told it would be explosive. That the skill talent was the best on the roster. That practice looked like an A-plus Then they played a MAC team with extra linemen on the field and the receivers they paid watching That’s what did it. I’m told the defense isn’t the issue. Coaches like Jay Hill. The frustration is Whit and Beck’s call sheet not matching what this team thought it was getting You could already hear the leak in public. A captain talking about running downhill. Whittingham saying they “missed the mark” with the extra linemen They’ll be ready for Oklahoma. I’m told that isn’t the concern The concern is how long a season gets when the locker room stops believing the coaches

This is the biggest lie in Mexico. Mexico City has some of the lowest overall taco quality because everything is mass produced and trucked in to feed 10 million people. The tortillas aren’t real. The average resident is a cheapskates, so vendors buy the lowest quality ingredients they can get away with. And even if they use better ingredients, people complain the price is too high. Mexico is regional. Sonora does beef better. Baja does seafood better. Oaxaca treats corn like doctrine. CDMX just aggregates at the lowest common denominator. Tourists don’t know any better, and Mexico City people (chilangos) love to hype themselves up. In fact, the tacos in the dark green states are better than the tacos in Mexico City.

What does the stabber look like? The public should be informed about staying away from him when he gets overcrowding released and finds himself back on Trax to stab again.
