And They Are Never Not Funny Lol @Regrann From @history - On This Day In History 1781, The German-born

Regrann from @nasa - What's Up in the night skies this June? First up is Venus. It reaches its highest sunset altitude for the year this month and sets more than two hours after sunset. Then, you can't miss Jupiter, only a month after its opposition--when Earth was directly between Jupiter and the Sun. The best time to observe Jupiter through a telescope is 10:30 p.m. local time at the beginning of the month and as soon as it's dark by the end of the month. Just aim your binoculars at the bright planet for a view including the four Galilean moons. Or just enjoy Jupiter with your unaided eye!

Life Before The Internet

Many people born after 1990 don’t remember a world before Internet. Here are a few things you may not realize about life in those days:

Phone numbers had to be looked up in a giant book.

Clowns weren’t considered scary. This is just the result of an early meme.

There were no llamas. The llama is a result of special global internet-coordinated breeding programs.

If you wanted to move something from one computer to another, you had to put it on a disk, which only held 0.2 MB maximum.

There were no unique television stations, all TV came through as a single broadcast, and there was no choice of what to watch at any time.

Most movies did not have sound. The few that did had to sync up the audio from a record player, and it often went out of sync very quickly, leading to sometimes hilarious results.

There were no phone poles, these are exclusive to the internet. The invention of the internet and the subsequent installation of these poles and wires gave birds a new place to rest, allowing them to migrate farther than ever before. Prior to 1990, birds could only migrate a few blocks.

Lightning wasn’t deadly, nor did it produce thunder. Only with the air electrified from so much internet did lightning gain deadly strength and become audible from afar. Back in the 80s, playwright Samuel Beckett spoke of lightning as causing a gentle tingling sensation. Many people would stand out in the rain just to feel it.

Cars didn’t have wheels. The wheel is a fairly recent invention, which could only come into being with science advanced by the worldwide web. Cars before wheels were odd contraptions which did not move, yet people still spent hours and hours sitting in them, expecting to get somewhere in the hope that one day, the wheel would be invented. Many people still practice sitting motionless in their car for hours and hours, mostly in Los Angeles.

We didn’t have snot. Nobody knows if the internet caused us to secrete mucus, but there are no records of it prior to the invention of internet.

This garbage ass dude!!! #education #problack #news

@Regrann from @christloved - @Regrann from @history - On this day in 1827, a group of masked and costumed students dance through the streets of New Orleans, Louisiana, marking the beginning of the city’s famous Mardi Gras celebrations. The holiday has since grown to a giant celebration in multiple cities internationally and celebrates religion, culture food and history. (📷 Getty Images) - #regrann - #regrann

I thank God I can rejoice with those that rejoice. I love seeing other shine.

Oh it's true....It's damn true,!!!

@Regrann from @time - The officer stands calmly as a group of white supremacists act out behind him. The provocative scene one Saturday afternoon in #Charlottesville, shot with an iPhone, was shared online with a modest public following but would attract a wide audience. "A picture worth a thousand words," one commenter wrote on Aug. 12, 2017. "A black police officer protecting a group of men who wish him harm. Incredible,” wrote another, prefacing that remark with a question common during breaking news: “Who took this photo?” And when was it taken?⠀ ⠀ The picture went viral in recent days as the Virginia college town was rocked by unrest over the planned “Unite the Right” rally. As intense images emerged of the street clashes between white nationalists, neo-Nazis and Klansmen who faced off against counterprotesters, this one stood out. But as the retweets entered into the tens of thousands, doubts emerged that this image was from Saturday. In the uncomfortable haze of live breaking news it became the latest in a long line of images to be grabbed and shared online without credit or context.⠀ ⠀ And so began a search for the photographer, a hunt that started on Twitter and wound through Google, Reddit and Facebook until stopping on Instagram, where it appeared on the feed of Jill Mumie (@lil_mooms). That's where the story behind this photo begins.⠀ ⠀ Read an interview with the photographer and the officer in the picture on TIME.com.⠀ ⠀ Photograph by Jill Mumie (@lil_mooms)
