I did not reblog it as I thought it was a memo, but you’re right, that’s stationary!

RCA student radically improves the UK plug: take a look at all the images from this article to see how brilliant the design is. For me however what really made it more than just a cosmetic change was this insight that he could fit several plugs in the space of one ‘old-fashioned’ plug, as shown here. Brilliant. Oh, and the fact that it forms a ‘handle’ to pull it out when in singular use. This plug is so much better than the standard UK plug!

Horton Hears a Who, by Dr. Seuss, tells the story of an elephant who hears a (actually, several) “Whos” — microscopic beings on a small speck of dust floating by through the air. The problem is that no one else in the Jungle of Nool can hear the Whos, and thus no one believes Horton’s claims that Whos exist. In part to restore the peace, and in part to save Horton from his own purported delusions, the residents of Nool decide to dunk the dust-speck in a boiling hot pot of beezel-nut oil. The Whos are only saved when they shout loud enough so that they are heard by their would-be killers.

So, it’s correct to say that Horton is about genocide.

Obsidian Wings: I say hello and it’s goodbye again on why the movie adaptation for Horton hears a who sucks.

And I now want to read everything Dr Seuss has written.

Tumblr endless scrolling is productivity killer

devers:

Usually, when I am getting the feeling I procrastinated enough, I count down the number of ‘next pages’, like: ‘just one more’.

Now I can just keep on scrolling, and scrolling, and scrolling, and scrolling, and scrolling.

Thank you Tumblr, goodbye productivity…

You obviously do not use tumblr enough; I just scroll until I see something that i’ve seen before :-/
