Well, Facts And Random Tidbit. This brand new, highly requested, weekly newsletter exists solely to counteract the robot-mode soul-sucking professionalism that comes with my 9-5. 

 

What’s the deal here? Pure curiosity, baby. Ever wonder how ancient Egyptians figured out they were pregnant? No? Well, subscribe and find out! Or if canned wine is bad because it’s canned—or because only shit wine gets canned? We'll dig into things like what medieval peasants named their pets? Or how they extract sperm from dogs (yeah, I said it). Don’t worry—this isn’t just a newsletter; it’s a public service. Intrigued? I knew I would get some of you perverts!

 

But it is not just perverted, also is for the seemingly boring, like almost everything around us has been designed, things we don't really ever think about - like those railings off the side of highways - someone put a lot of effort and research into it. They aren't always shocking or bizarre just a different lens to try on when you're incorrectly bored with the seemingly mundane. 

 

Basically, if it’s odd, random, and sometimes unsettling, it’s F.A.R.T material. No real talents on my end—just raw curiosity. Why not wonder about the odd nature of being alive in the world!

 

 

✨ Thanks for being here so I can realize my hiney's dreams! ✨

Pigeons. We see them everywhere. If you’ve ever been a 12-year-old in a town square, you probably fed them with your bare hands—no regrets, right?

 

The other day, I was walking through Bryant Park, thinking about how these birds were once considered "carrier pigeons." I have seen Harry Potter but couldn't figure out how were these creatures responsible for sending important messages? Turns out, people used to raise pigeons at home and train them by gradually moving them farther away from their nests. They’ve got really great homing instinct, the ability to find its way home over extremely long distances. Once trained, you'd give one to a friend, and eventually, it would fly back home with a message tied to its foot. Check the nest and just like that—pigeon post 📮 . 

 

Most of the time pigeons only delivered messages one way - home, but eventually they figured out that if you placed food at one spot and their home at another, you could train them to fly back and forth, doing round trips up to 100 miles, twice a day. This method was used in various key moments, including war, said to be the method of announcing Olympic winners in Ancient games. I really hope there were some medieval pre-marital ‘grope for trout in a peculiar river’ level sexting.
