Tatyana Fazlalizadeh’s Street Art Confronts Sexual Harassment
Craig J. Spence, reporter turned lobbyist for the George Bush White House, became the centerpiece of a national scandal in the summer of 1989. The Secret Service, investigating a prostitution ring for credit card fraud, uncovered the ring’s marketing of underage boys to lobbyists and members of Congress. Spence was rumored to be spending upwards of $20,000 a month on call boys and drugs, a lifestyle that came crashing down when he was arrested on July 31st, 1989 for criminal possession of a firearm and criminal possession of cocaine. He denied the criminal charges and the rampant rumors that he gave guided tours of the White House to the boys he hired. In an interview with the Washington Post soon after his arrest, he stated “All this stuff you’ve uncovered (involving call boys, bribery and the White House tours), to be honest with you, is insignificant compared to other things I’ve done. But I’m not going to tell you those things, and somehow the world will carry on.” He made further claims, to friends, of having secret ties to the CIA.
Only weeks after the initial firestorm had quieted down, Spence was found dead of a drug overdose in the Boston Ritz Carlton. He had three dollars in his pocket and, according to the police report, was wearing a “black tux with white shirt, bow tie, white suspenders, black socks and shoes” with “a telephone cradled in his ear and a Walkman headset containing a cassette tape of Mozart’s A Little Night Music.” His suicide note was written on a mirror: “Chief, consider this my resignation, effective immediately. As you always said, you can’t ask others to make a sacrifice if you are not ready to do the same. Life is duty. God bless America. P.S. To the Ritz, please forgive this inconvenience.”

I really hate to be “that guy”, but for those of you living here in America, we’ve got something called the Human Chimera Prohibition Act
holy shit
wait the best thing about this is that a LOT of people are chimeras… about 60% of mothers have cells with their kid’s DNA floating around in them and other people are chimeras for other reasons.

A 110 million-year-old fossil of Cleoniceras ammonite, found in Madagascar. Ammonites are extinct cephalopods that lived in shells. Their closest modern relatives are nautiluses, octopi, squid, and cuttlefish. Like the nautilus, ammonites gradually added onto their shell to accommodate their increasing body mass. As they extended the shell they built a wall behind them, closing up the now too-narrow portion of the shell as they moved into the larger portion of the spiral.
Unlike the nautilus, the morphology of the tissue wall ammonites built between the chambers is not just a smooth curved wall. Instead it has a bizarrely complex 3-dimensional fractal shape. These are called “suture patterns” and mark the intersection of the septum walls with the shell. Scientists can’t agree why these walls are so complexly furrowed or even how they formed.
Ahhh! My ammonite has these patterns!
