The Daily Beast · Another Country Has ‘First Dibs’ On Greenland Before America: Ex-Envoy
About a million years ago when I was on the night staff at Apache Point Observatory, we carried out regular, high-res spectro observations of stars searching for the carriers of the diffuse interstellar bands. It's great to see ongoing science from that project. When it started, the chemical nature of the carriers was still mysterious. Now we have a much better idea of the compounds involved.

@barrymusic The whole confrontation could have been avoided if the guy had remembered to bring a folding chair or box fan to hold the spot. 
#Dibs
Near me in #Chicago, there's a long tradition of "calling #dibs" on any parking spot where a nearby resident went through the trouble of shoveling the deep #snow away. Usually, people use a lawn chair or milk carton cube.
But some people like to do it with more flair than others.

This is the only type of #dibs that I support. https://flic.kr/p/9hUL5k
In Chicago we have a long tradition of calling dibs on parking spots in the winter with random objects, like a lawn chair... or ice cream. This is in response to @AnneTheWriter's toot: https://mstdn.party/@AnneTheWriter/109784748380853420
