Your Wednesday weirdness.

Quote of the Day:

Coincidences are spiritual puns

G.K. Chesterton

  1. elongated skulls
    While I never questioned that this could happen in utero, I am still skeptical if the cause it because aliens. Many of these skulls seem to occur in royalty (like Akenaten) or the wealthy upper class. All of whom have been known to inbreed. Once they saw a trait they liked, the long head, they kept breeding it. Just like if we want a dog to have a certain color we breed it with a dog of that color to get offspring that will have that feature.

  2. Because Russia
    I don’t think the little rotten, mummified animal is an alien. Judging by size it could be a small rodent. Or if you look at its long leg it looks like a hoof, maybe a deformed fetus of some kind from a goat. When things rot and mummify they shrink tremendously. Let’s see if real scientists are allowed to get DNA out of this thing without contamination. If I recall there was a similar case to this years ago and the fetus went missing. It was stolen by a guy the family trusted and probably sold on the black market.

  3. Sea silk
    Fascinating article. She can’t sell it for one BIG reason which is why the coastguard goes with her on dives. Not only is it illegal to kill the clams but selling any goods made from them would also technically violate environmental laws. No part of the animal may be sold, it’s considered poaching. Doesn’t seem like an economical way to make silk anyway. 400 dives?! However nothing about these laws ever considers bartering or giving it as a gift. I could give you the ivory tusk of an elephant and no one would be the wiser unless you go posting it all over the internet. There’s sadly a lot of loopholes in the laws that protect animals.
