The Amazing Underwater Forest of Lake Kaindy
What makes Lake Kaindy truly remarkable is that it contains an underwater forest. Visible on the lakes surface are the tall, dried-out tops of submerged Spruce trees that rise above the water’s surface like the masts of sunken ships. They are the only sign of the amazing frozen forest below the water’s surface.
The water is so cold (even in summer the temperature does not exceed 6 degrees) that the pine needles remain on the trees, even after a hundred years of being submerged. During the winter, the lake freezes and becomes a popular spot for ice diving.
The lake is 400 meters long and is located in Kazakhstan’s portion of the Tian Shan Mountains, about 129 km from the city of Almaty. The lake was created after an earthquake in 1911 triggered a large landslide blocking the gorge and forming a natural dam.
Holy crap.

FUCKING POPE WARS, MAN. Also, I cannot WAIT until we get a Pope Whatever XXX.Pope Wars, indeed. I think it’s gonna be a while until we get up to 30, though. Unless somebody really decides to go for it? Which could be a thing. It’s been a while since anybody’s had a really proper antipope, but the hypercatholics who think everybody since WWI has been too soft on heathens to be considered a proper pope are working on it. As far as most people are concerned, though, it looks like nobody’s even hit the upper 20s yet.
Pope Whatever is totally going to be the first hipster pope.

A Catholic/hipster/Latin joke. Well, my day is complete.
Abandoned Amusement Park in New Orleans
they say New orleans is haunted… this has proved the theory 100%
I was sending photos like this to everyone when I started writing Nightmare in Silver. There is something uniquely disturbing about abandoned Amusement Parks.
