For at least the third time, construction workers in Georgia have opened
up the walls of a former dentist’s office only to discover thousands of
teeth in the wall cavity.

The latest discovery was made at Valdosta, Georgia’s TB Converse
Building, built in 1900, in a dental office occupied by Dr Clarence
Whittington and then Dr Lester G Youmans, from 1900 until the 1930s.

Previous troves of entombed teeth have been discovered in old dentists’ offices n Greensboro and Carrolton.

>for at least the t h i r d t i m e

apparently the cool thing to do post-war was utilize the empty space between studs as a fucking sharps container because that could never cause a problem in the future

thanks boomers

got yet another email from my dad today wherein he…

your dad’s an ass and I’d like to clock him

everybody’s always like “he’s your dad! he’s trying!” and i don’t know how to explain that he’s only proud of us when we do things that he thinks are accomplishments and that he can brag about, and that he never really listens to anything i say unless it’s about something that he thinks is interesting or wants to talk about and it’s just always terrible to spend time with him because he acts like he doesn’t do any of those things and is just trying to be supportive and didn’t decide to abandon us all so he could be untethered in his pursuit of trying to do all the things he thought he missed out on because he grew up poor and then try to go back on it and say that he still wanted to be a family he just wanted to divorce my mom
