Mildly Interesting

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

This is cool, but also makes me feeling like we poured asphalt over a masterpiece.

I mean we paved over cities to make room for cars, so not wrong

We didn't really though. Even the Romans built roads, we've always needed a way to move food and goods.

Like we built on-top of an ancient civilization

Exactly! Makes me think of things I have heard and read about historical sites getting worn down by visitors or people finding artifacts while digging in their garden.
