TIL the guy who created the Ultima videogame series claims to own a chunk of the Moon.

In 1993 Richard Garriott bought two space exploration craft still on the Moon from an auction at Sotheby's, and he claims that legally gives him ownership over the section of lunar terrain they surveyed.

As @ZachWeinersmith 's book A City on Mars succinctly puts it "No space lawyer we talked to shared this view."

She was born on January 26th 1944 in Birmingham, Alabama.

It's an especially great Caturday for me because this week I signed a contract with Princeton University Press to write a book... about cats! Cat emotion, cognition, behavior, ethics of how we treat cats, and more from a perspective in anthropology. Details to come. #Caturday #catsofmastodon #anthropology #books #writing #publishing

If you're unaware of the history of Nazism in the US, look up the German-American Bund and what that group was doing in 1930s US. The Bund actually had rallies in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, and some of my older Bucks Co. neighbors remember it.

Nazi Town, USA | American Experience | PBS

Nazi Town, USA tells the unknown story of the German American Bund, a 1930s pro-Nazi group with chapters in suburbs and big cities across the country. Many believe the Bund represented a real threat of fascist subversion in the U.S.

It's called the American Dream, 'cause you have to be asleep to believe it.
