Ice Cream was invented by three different civilizations over centuries, but damn if it wasn't worth the wait.

@RickiTarr Ice cream Day is May 9 in Japan but the third Sunday in July internationally.

@lowqualityfacts a caution is issued rather than a fine if you are judged to have spoken forthrightly and with honesty. It has something to do with candour being good for geese.

@lowqualityfacts in Japan Genghis Khan is the name given to a grilled mutton dish with a soy, garlic and sake sauce. No cilantro as far as I know.

Awww this takes me back! What has been the most important in your life?

wilpercy,
@wilpercy@mstdn.social avatar

@RickiTarr for me it is undoubtedly digital photography. The freedom to take lots of photographs as my daughters grew up, to share them with distant relatives and latterly to copy old (1910 ~) albums and ‘rescue’ damaged images. This transformed my interest in family history and inspired conversations with elderly relatives about their childhood memories. Oral history, restored photos, Wikipedia and Google Earth. What a combination!

@lowqualityfacts Objection: a group of Blue whales is called a ‘Downer’ and there’s nothing remotely carefree about a gang of Orcas.

@lowqualityfacts no matter what is eaten, saliva breaks it down during this journey to the stomach. Rocks, parts of passing safari vehicles and on occasion their occupants, hence the giraffe’s fearsome reputation as the most dangerous animal in Africa.

@lowqualityfacts entirely believable. Not only does it produce an edge sharper than steel, it comes in a range of attractive colors. Black obsidian is probably the most common, but you can also find varieties like rainbow obsidian, pumpkin obsidian, and mahogany obsidian, among others. Washington had a set of each and barely had to chew his food.

@lowqualityfacts Not so fast! Apparently there is another breed:

“Portuguese Water Dog: Originally bred to herd fish into nets and retrieve lost gear from the water, these dogs have webbed feet and a waterproof coat that make them excellent swimmers.”
They might also be flame resistant given their affinity to all things aquatic.

(Herding fish would test anyone’s patience!)

These are some of the oldest surviving pictures of dogs. It just goes to show that humans haven't changed too much. We have to get pics of the cute pups!

This is a white fluffy poodle, it has a bow on it's head, and it's just exhausted by this whole ordeal and having a wee nap
This is a white dog with dark patches and floppy ears. It's seated in such a way that it looks like it could leap up at any moment joyfully, but it's trying very hard to behave for the photo. It has a big ole open mouth doggie smile, and definitely seems to be making eye contact with the human that is having it sit still to have it's picture made.
This dog has that kind of silky black and white fur that you just want to pet so much, big floofy floppy ears like a border collie. It is laying down like it's napping, and I wonder if it's human decided to try to take it's picture while it was napping, but it woke up to a camera and looks mildly perplexed, worried, and put upon.
