Day 1 of #TeamAtlas assisting in the Kherson region today.
Atlas in an Atlas, evacuating civilians and their pets, shortly after this video was shot an artillery round landed in the water not 50m behind the vehicle, grandma and grandpa were quickly evacuated, unfortunately… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

Atlas also had two RHIBs in the water helping, as below. 
A building right next to where the guys were was shelled later on in the day.
I believe this video is of the building being struck.

Shout out to all the weirdos who spent their childhood randomly reading dictionaries & other reference books for fun
As a result of this thread, I did an image search for “golden book encyclopedia” (which we didn’t have/use) and some of those images are a bit yikes
I also really loved reading the Rhyming Dictionary.
En el contexto del #IITorneoArgivo realizado por el gran @EstoEsArgos he conseguido la capitanía del #TeamAtlas. ¡Aquí un hilo para conocer a este titán un poco más (y ver que no solo es un fortachón, como dicen por ahí)!
El nombre Atlas (o Atlante) tiene un etimología discutida. Muchos señalan la relación con el verbo griego τλῆναι (tlēnai), de la raíz indoeuropea *telh₂, que significa soportar, lo que se refiere a su cualidad de soporte de los cielos.
Virgilio lo asocia con la idea de algo fuerte, "durus", que soporta pero que también permanece (que dura) lo cual podría relacionarse con su relación con ciertas montañas, de la que ya hablaremos más abajo.
