A Chinese man named "John John" of Weaverville, California became rich washing prospectors clothes ... and collecting the gold dust trapped in their dirty clothing.

These "modern" inventions come up almost on the regular from thousands of years ago. I wanna know what happened to humans that we got sooooooo dumb and eschewed these highly useful items, for so very long.

I’d miss that bus.

I’m looking at the erosion underneath it and wonder if there will come a day when the lake sadly disappears

I think the complete story is that he needed lots of blood at the age of 14, and swore to become donor as soon as it was allowed for hem to become donor. He kept his word and they made the discovery. At his last donation he was accompanied by some mothers and their babies he helped saving.

But does anyone listen? NoOoOoOoOo

Look, if you had, one shot, or one opportunity To seize everything you ever wanted, one moment Would you capture it? Or just let it slip?

$40 for a packet of 25.....quit 3 months ago, best decision after 30 years.I have no desire whatsoever to ever puff again. I did it for my kids.

A similar discovery was made by not painting airplanes saving airlines money by using less fuel.

My favourite gemstone. For the rarity, they are surprisingly not as expensive as you'd think. In Canada, just looking it up online, a Tanzanite ring can go for $100-$800 Cdn per carat. To tell if a Tanzanite is real, look at the reflective quality. They should not be dull in shine, sparkle and colour. It is possible Tanzanite could be depleted in the mines in a couple decades, sadly.

He went on to deep sea fishing.

What's with the 💩!?

Nature never ceases to amaze me.

And yet the photo is of a performing arts center

Gardiners Island, 5 sq miles, the Gardiner family has owned it since 1639 when they purchased it from the Montauk tribe (the tribe the town of Montauk Point is named after), whom the family still has a good relationship with, and the current owner in the family, Alexandra Creel Goelet, has been helping them in their fight for tribal recognition by NY State, a bill that was vetoed by Governor Hochul in 2022, and 4 times by Governor Cuomo. The family is also helping to try and get the tribe federal recognition as well. The current owner is Alexandra Creel Goelet, whose mother was a Gardiner and she inherited from her uncle (she is the first person not named Gardiner to own it, but she is of the family). Very fascinating story of the Island and the family and their relation with the Montauk tribe.

That's one way to clean out the ears.

This would only be a good idea for mild winter climates.

The main question is, did he get his pup?

This image is fake. Sweden drives on the right, not the left. And their road signs aren't in English.

But how did the knocker-uppers wake up on time?

This is why we don't want polio coming back.

Its all about perspective, as it's not as steep as this image implies, but does have 699 steps. The angle of ascent varies between 39 and 41 degrees. Much like the staircase in a house. jl-666e7d09846d1.jpg

Niiice. I want to be a snail.

I am just a gnome and I'm digging for gold, A diggy diggy gold, a diggy diggy gold.

I only have two arms and sometimes my brain even struggles with them!

That's like watching those "Places that look unreal" shorts and seeing the cgi fake white apples being cut open to reveal red flesh. Weird.

Wait. Have you counted in that mix, other humans?

I mean, everything is edible once...

So the potatoes grow underground while the tomatoes grow above on the same plant?

Humans do weird things
