Reply to comment by Zoober69er in I’ve had this Dakine backpack for ~17 years and have taken it on all my trips. The zippers on this thing still work like they are new. All my other backpacks have had their zippers break off so this is my old trusty pack. by cumaboardladies
Yes, mine are the same, but structurally and insulation wise they are as good as new and probably 9-10 years old.

Reply to Exxon accurately predicted global warming from 1970s – but continued to cast doubt on climate science, new report finds by SelectiveSanity
Corporate America has never placed ethics ahead of profits, in fact, if ethics were found to have hurt a corporations bottom line, the CEO would be exposed to legal action from the investors.
It is fucking shameful, and if corporations are to be considered "people" under the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment, then they should be subject to the same laws and rules as the rest of us...not just the ones that let them hoard more wealth.
Greedy fucking pigs.

I thought this dog was preserved in Alaska in the lodge at the starting point for the Iditarod dog sled race?
There is a taxidermy there (when I visited about 15 years ago) which they claim is this very dog...
Edit: Seraph062 helped me remember that this was actually Togo, who was the dog that delivered emergency vaccines during a blizzard in Alaska.

Reply to TIL that in 1554 Elizabeth Crofts hid in a wall on Aldersgate Street, where she pretended to be a heavenly voice. Reputedly 17,000 people came to listen to her give out anti-Catholic propaganda. by Kurma-the-Turtle
Why is it "propaganda?"
Is it perspective?
As Obi Wan Kenobi said “Luke, you're going to find that many of the truths we cling to depend greatly on our own point of view.”
