Friday Ephemera (836)

Something in the air tonight. || Beasts of the sea. || Critical beer breakthrough. || Big snow. || About your spleen. || Mr Eakin has the world’s largest collection of bedpans. (h/t, Neatorama) || “We’re not inebriated,” says obnoxious, lying drunk. || Wild mushroom with bionic arms plays synthesiser in woods. || On the upside, it’s only a little one. || Lighters. || The thrill of liposuction. || The thrill of Windows. || Taxi driver of note. || On erasing ethnicity. || Churchly scenes. || Multitasking. || Plenty of meat on that puppy. || The progressive retail experience, parts 761 and 762. || The thrill of fingernails. || Unattractive fonts. And they’re downloadable. || Phone retrieval of note. || Tiny irritation. || The machine uprising, day 14. || His is bigger. || Oh, and Professor O’Flannery’s guide to China’s communist revolution.
