And this just in apparently, The first sustained, controlled, powered heavier-than-air manned flight was performed by John Brown, two years before the Wright Brothers.

Yogurt often makes me wonder how the hell it became a thing that you do. Pretty sure that a person who was close to starving scraped out the milk jug only to discover that there was a way to store milk for a bit longer if it was Yogurt.

In video games like Civilization you always discover pottery or mineralogy, fuck all that, the bag was a way more fantastic invention. The post also reminded me of this Stevie Wonder song Black Man
