Amateur youngling. I was 65 before I could consistently spell rythm. Rythym. Rhythym. Rhythm. Yeah, that looks right.

That site is a satire site like The Onion but closer to The Babylon Bee. The Onion articles are obviously satire
I keep doing the same thing—trying to double the y's rather than the h's. Always need to try several times and rely on a spellchecker.
Mine lit vs. lighted. "He lit a candle"; sounds correct in my head. "He lighted a candle"; sounds, well; very awkward. "She lit a fire under his ass." It loses all dimension when "lighted" is used instead.
I’ve mentioned before the support my wife and I try to provide the neighborhood stray cats. We noticed the dry food going rather quick, so we put up a new camera to watch the bowl, and see who was gorging themselves on kibble. We may have to rethink how we’re doing the dry food.
In going though my late mother's documents, I find a receipt from the birth of my younger brother. Admittedly, money went a lot further in 1953, but I still think $38.45 is a good rate for a childbirth, plus four days in the hospital.
I do the same thing, and I came to understand real quick there are more cats nearby than I knew. Word seems to get out on the grapevine. Plus raccoons were visiting, though I think they stopped coming around. Not sure why, I'm just thankful.
Loni Anderson and Burt Reynolds were married in 1988. I am so distracted by her hair. Spoiler: Loni and Burt
Primate dominance display. The Chinese character for "big" is a man standing with his arms outstretched: 大 You see the pose in a lot of gangsta rap videos as well, Ice Cube pops to the top of my head although my specific memory of his work isn't good enough to cite. Type "come at me bro" into google and do an image search, you'll see the same thing.
It isn't just hands up, they seem to be holding two things up, usually animals. It could be they're holding up two opposites, because creation myths always seem to involve opposites being separated from a formless state where opposites didn't exist, or else two opposites coming together, like Norse mythology with a river of ice meeting a river of fire to create the world. In the Bible it was a whole bunch of opposites—dark and light, day and night, dry land and water, heaven and earth, and so on.
I don't know, but I'm thinking he's either holding them apart or bringing them together. Maybe both at the same time. Life is made of pairs of opposites that seem opposed to one another, but are really ends of a spectrum, parts of a whole. It's like the creator god mediates between the opposites, holding them in balance. Yin/Yang is another symbol of creation consisting of pairs of opposites held in dynamic, constantly-shifting balance. So is the Jewish Qaballa. It's pretty universal at the foundations of many religions.
Victorious boxers, sprinters, Oscar recipients, etc, instinctively raise their arms to indicate "I won! Look at me, Ma!" or "I won! Take that, bitches." When one is in danger of being attacked by a mountain lion, one raises one's arms to look bigger and more intimidating.
I've never seen them holding up animals though. I'm done here before we get the obligatory tip of the hat.
