Picture of the Day
A Prussian Landwehrmann tanning rat skins in a dugout, WWI
A Prussian Landwehrmann tanning rat skins in a dugout, WWI. The trench soldier of WWI had to cope with millions of rats. They were attracted by the human waste of war – not simply sewage waste but also the bodies of men long forgotten who had been buried in the trenches.
Possibly drawing on his pre-war trade in the leather industry, this fellow has set himself up in business, tanning the pelts in the age-old method of separating soil and gore from the skin, before they are washed and spread out to dry (as depicted here). It’s possible that he used the skins to make patches for repairs to uniforms. Some of these rats grew extremely large. Many troops were awakened by them crawling across their faces, or attempting to take food from the pockets of sleeping men.
I Hate My Life

Your alarm goes off at 6:30 am.
Stumbling out of bed, you brew a strong cup of coffee to get through the day. Sitting in your car, you pause before starting the engine. “I can’t keep doing this”, you think to yourself.
Driving to work, you arrive at your soul-sucking job with only minutes to spare. As you walk through the office doors an all too familiar feeling creeps in.
You hate it here. You hate the menial tasks that fill your waking hours. You hate the manager who seems to revel in breathing down your neck.
Sinking into your chair, you stare numbly at your computer, a single thought commandeering your conscious mind.
“I hate myself and I hate my life”

Poll of the Day
A friend called me a couple of days ago asking me if I knew that my girlfriend was using Tinder, despite being with me for the last 3 years, and living together and happily planning an engagement. I was distraught, knowing what Tinder is and what it is used for, I was heartbroken.
The friend goes on to tell me that her bio says she’s “Looking to make some new, exciting and fun friends and looking to hangout. Willing to travel a little if there’s enough excitement involved!”
Her pictures do not include me, despite 9/10 pictures ever taken of either of us for the last three years having the two of us together in them.
I brought this up to her, and she laughed it off, saying that 1: my best friend of 11 years is ‘nosy’ and that 2: she’s entitled to seek friends and be social, even if it is with complete strangers.
Basically she completely invalidated my points and made me feel guilty for being upset by this, playing it off like I am being possessive.
Since then I’ve avoided bringing it up and just tried to get over it. She hasn’t been out and about any more than usual so it doesn’t look like she has any ‘takers’ yet, but this is just not sitting right with me.

15 Book Quotes That Stick With You Long After You Read Them
They shared the weight of memory. They took up what others could no longer bear. Often, they carried each other, the wounded or weak. They carried infections. They carried chess sets, basketballs, Vietnamese-English dictionaries, insignia of rank, Bronze Stars and Purple Hearts, plastic cards imprinted with the Code of Conduct. They carried diseases, among them malaria and dysentery. They carried lice and ringworm and leeches and paddy algae and various rots and molds. They carried the land itself—Vietnam, the place, the soil—a powdery orange-red dust that covered their boots and fatigues and faces. They carried the sky.
