Sons of New York | Bernie Sanders

Mordhaus says...

Sons of New York, I am Bernie Sanders!

'Bernie Sanders is 7 feet tall'

Yes, I’ve heard, kills Republicans by the hundreds, and if he were here he would consume Hillary with fireballs from his eyes and bolts of lightning from his arse. I am Bernie Sanders, and I see a whole army of my countrymen, here in defiance of tyranny. You’ve come to vote as free men, and free men you are. What will you do without freedom? Will you vote?

'…against that? No, we will run, and we will live…'

Aye, vote and you may die, run and you’ll live. At least a while. And dying in your beds, many years from now, would you be willing to trade all the days from this day to that for one chance, just one chance to come back here and tell our enemies that they may take our lives, but they’ll never take our FREEDOM!

The Danish School Where Children Play With Knives

SDGundamX says...

Yeeeeaaaah... this looks like more of a glorified daycamp than a kindergarten to me. My daughter is in a "traditional" bilingual kindergarten now and she's already learned her colors, shapes, letters, and numbers in both languages. They've just started learning to spell and do basic addition and subtraction. She also learned how to use the school computers to surf the Net--approved sites only of course, so don't expect her to be Sifting anything anytime soon! Oh, and she LOVES school. The "pedagogue" who says kids that young aren't ready to learn is full of shit. My daughter comes home from school wanting to practice counting and spelling every day.

I think I prefer that kind of education for her future than how to climb tall trees (though I guess that kind of skill might come in handy if we have a Walking Dead-style zombie apocalypse).

And no one formally checks on these kindergartens to make sure they are doing what they are supposed to be doing? Fuck that. Sounds like pedophile paradise to me.

Removing a 40 Metre tree with a chainsaw and some rope

newtboy says...

Not at all. I hate seeing nice trees cut down as well.

I would guess they took it down because of the HUGE crack in a large branch that you can see at the start of the video.....oh...I just read the description where they explain EXACTLY why they took it down, it was dropping branches after a lightning strike, almost hitting someone. That likely means the trunk was also weakened, and it was certainly close enough to take out that house.

I can relate. I (sadly) took down a 30-40 meter Douglas Fir tree in my yard a few years back. It's still painful to think about. My tree had grown too tall, and had a weakened root system because it was growing sideways out of a small hill, and had massive gopher activity all around it. All the surrounding trees on other properties were cut well before we moved here, so it was also exposed to full wind. I was terrified that it was going to come down through my bedroom and kill the wife and myself, or through a neighbors house, so we had it cut. I've spent the nearly 3 years since then digging out the root ball (which WAS as weakened as I had thought) and turning the hole into a large pond. I still hate that we had to kill the tree, but it was a safety issue. At least I have firewood for years to come, and a pond.

Am I the only only one who thinks this sad? Why did they cut down such a magnificent tree?

Cougar released from trap

Ashenkase says...

My Uncle used to work at the animal control facility at Mirabel International Airport North of Montreal. I visited him when I was young and he would have all manner of exotic animals at his house (parrots, a chimp, etc).

At one point someone, I kid you not, tried to smuggle in a cub Mountain Cougar. Algernon was confiscated and put into my Uncles care.

He ultimately took on ownership of Algernon. When I was just 7 years old I remember visiting him and being chased down and scratched by young Algernon. He was cute, but those claws let you know what he would grow into.

Fast forward another 7 years and my Uncle moved to Ontario close to our town. We would visit every now and then and see Algernon. At his maturity he was 15 foot from head to tail. He would live inside the house in a converted room for his needs with a huge cage door. He would spend time outside on a very long, very fortified run. To feed Algernon my Uncle would open the door to his room, close it behind him and deliver the food. My Uncle is all 5' 4" tall, but you wouldn't know it. Algernon would put his front paws up on my Uncles shoulders and you would just hear my Uncle in a slightly annoyed voice "shoo" Algernon off like he was a pesky kitten trying to jump on him for dinner.

I remember sitting at the foot of his cage door looking into his eyes. A few things I learned... never look directly into a large cats eyes and never... never turn your back to a large cat.

Algernon eventually went on to a wildlife preserve that took great care of him until end of life... although not lucky to be taken out of his habitat he sure was well kept post smuggling.

Kinetic Wind Sculptures by Anthony Howe

Get people to stop what they're thinking and doing for at least a few moments? Mission accomplished.
Upon looking at it however my first thought was, if Bender was sixty feet tall and told you to kiss his shiny metal asshole, it would probably look something like that.

The Official Donald Trump Jam

MrFisk says...

"Cowardice
Are you serious?
Apologies for freedom, I can’t handle this.
When freedom rings, answer the call!
On your feet, stand up tall!
Freedom's on our shoulders, USA!
Enemies of freedom face the music, c'mon boys, take them down
President Donald Trump knows how to make America great
Deal from strength or get crushed every time"

Fire Tornado in Slow Motion

Wow. Quite possibly their most beautiful video yet. I'm surprised they were able to achieve such good contrast in sunlight. The tall guy really needs to change his natty rags already, though.

Why Most Internships Are Actually Illegal

00Scud00 says...

You must be tall, I'd need at least a good pair of platform shoes or perhaps a step ladder to overlook that hair.

His topics and some execution are just beginning to allow me to overlook his ridiculous hair.

People are insane! (2015)

worthwords says...

eek. climbing up a tall structure is understandable but holding on with one hand or doing hand jump hand stands on a beam. No one is ever going to say 'he died doing what he loved'
