Weird Things You've Noticed Recently

I believe this is not real. I've seen before that this account from South Asia posts completely fake content. I actually just blocked them today after seeing this posted on X.

If it's real, then I would expect them to know what it is and how it got there.

Edit: Apparently it did just stick up through the pavement unexpectedly. That is certainly weird.

I have seen that Twitter account post a lot of other completely unbelievable stuff, like interstellar objects entering the solar system and slowing down, and things like that.

Just looked through a couple of days of their timeline and there's a lot of hooey in there. The huge pipe is their best post in a while, along with the albino puma.

Muslims are so weird. I forgot about their giant skyscraper clock tower at mecca. Talk about kitsch and totally uninspiring.

And it's really dumb secular people fell all over themselves to build it. Some people even converted to Islam so they could be on site. ...for the paycheck.

 
I guess this is expected, but the change is large.

Usually, when I pick my daughter up it takes about 1/3 gas tank to get her and drive home.

Since the "war": over half a gas tank to drive there and back.

I've done this drive quite a few times. I used to be able to drive there and back on a half tank. This was the first that I had a full tank and had it go past the mid-line...

I'm not sure I understand? What does the price of gas have to do with your vehicle's gas mileage? If you are driving the same amount of miles to and from the school using the same vehicle then your vehicle is using the same amount of gas as it was pre-war, so I'm not sure what all your talk about the position of your "gas needle" represents? I take it you're trying to say that it costs you more money to make the trip, but the position of your gas needle shouldn't be entering the conversation as you are still using the same amount of gas.

I'm in California (send prayers). They change the composition of the gas with their different "blends." I fill up and pay more but my tank drops faster.

Basically, what I'm saying is that: The gas is watered down or something. I'm not a scientist ok lol.
 
You're right, here in the UK we have a choice of standard (95RON) or Super (97-99RON). Super is more expensive, but gives better mileage. Perhaps some skullduggery on the forecourts? Are the people who run your usual gas station of a certain ethnic background, perhaps?

It was from Costco (a major retailer here), where I usually get gas, which is why I was surprised at such a difference in mileage.
 
Crazy stuff. But if the brain uses patterns to reconstuct reality, what does it do before it has data to go off?

In other words, what does a baby see in this circumstance?
I don't know, but my guess is that we're born with fundamental pattern recognition.

There have been studies about how babies recognize race and prefer people who look like themselves compared to others.
