Friday Ephemera
A stolen credit card, a convenience store and a getaway that doesn’t go quite to plan. (h/t, Gary) || The sizes of penises. Avert your eyes, ladies. || Look at these lovely kitchens instead. || Disney’s robot stunt doubles. || The basics, explained. || An airbag for your phone. || Meanwhile, at the Bolshoi. || Kindness of note. || Photographs of note. || Explore phantom islands. (h/t, Things) || Hardcore joinery. (h/t, Franklin) || He reviews sidewalks so you don’t have to. || Today’s word is testicondy. || Unrelated. || Not actually what it says. || Whoa, whoa! Be careful, dad! || Dispute of note. || How to operate your dining table. || Ride. || And finally, a tale of ambition and madness. His wife only wanted a potato storage pit.

Apparently, any detectable sign of support for Trump, and specifically the sentiment “Make America great again,” is – and I quote – “the political emblem of a movement systematically dehumanising and persecuting minorities in an attempt to unite the majority through hate.” Of course, if you start from that assumption, what follows will tend to be absurd and hysterical too. And quite often, variations of the above seem to be used opportunistically as a fig-leaf rationalisation – a pretext to indulge in games of domination and other delinquent behaviour.
