This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

2013... gosh that brings me back. I remember the doom and gloom predictions that 2012 was the end of the world. 2012 and 2013 were the best damn days of my life

It turns out the Mayan calendar just cycles when it reaches the end. Also the world ended for them much longer ago than 2012..

This heat wave situation is really getting out of hand.

Mildly infuriating:
It looks like the brick wall is sliding on wet cement, a brick wall cannot melt FFS. 😋

This is a decade old art installation... So it isn't doing that either

The article literally says in the opening sentence that it is an art installation. The article is also from 2013. They just decided to use a click bait headline.

Red bricks melt between 1,800f and 2,200f.
