open up your heart

and let the bird in

your heart is now a bird nest, too bad

it's your (ir)regularly scheduled bird break

(photo by me)
A gray snowy day, with flecks of white scattered in the air--upper left of the vertical frame is a bright bold red bird feeder, a squirrel proof kind (but spoiler warning, not raccoon proof since they would later destroy this feeder). Center of frame is a dark-eyed junco almost literally hovering there the way a hummingbird would. Usually dark-eyed juncos are round, bulbous little fuzzbuckets, but when flying, this one looks stretched out, graceful even, gunmetal gray, its wing out, tails pert and pointed backward, eyes forward as they are cast diligently upon the prize of precious bird seed. This junco is ready to take on the world. This junco will fuck your shit up. Do not be in the way of this bird or you will find yourself down on your ass, foolish human. Photo by me, Chuck Wendig.

It’s a lovely snow globe here today. I would prefer to be spending it snuggled under a blanket but looking out the window at work will have to do for now.

Today’s snake content: Spaghetti
A very long and thin Amazon tree boa is wrapped several times around a person’s forearm. The snake is yellowish brown with black patches. His eyes are bright yellow.

Having a great fucking Monday morning. Have a super huge cold sore, am fighting with one of my partners and I have the worst cramps of my life. Perimenopause is bullshit.

@ccriot.bsky.social important historical news
greenleejw.bsky.social Surprised Eel Historian, PhD @greenleejw.bsky.social · Jan 23
It's January 23, & you want to know, don't you? You want to know which historical figure bought eels on this date. Of course you do.

It was Cardinal Wolsey! In 1525, his kitchen account books show an expenditure of 16d. for "eels to roast."

There you are. Now go enjoy your day!
🗃️🧪
Meme. Painting of Cardinal Wolsey by Sampson Strong from the late 15th C. The cardinal is dressed in his carinal-colored carinal clothes, and his pointy hat. He is looking to your left, and there's no indication that he even knows you're here. His neck and chin look fat; he is very jowly, like he's trying out for the part of the bulldog in the Christmas pageant. Wolsey is pointing with two fingers. He might be blessing someone, or he might be indicating that he wants two eels. It's impossible to tell from the way I've clipped the image. Not for nothing, but "Sampson Strong" is a wonderful name, and I like to think that it's a descriptive title. Adjectival Nominalism. He's not just strong, friends. He's Sampson Strong. The meme text reads: "'Roast me some eels' The original cardinal direction"

Weirdly, I enjoy the sensation of the snot freezing in my nose on a 13F day.

Here, I said some goofy bullshit about what maybe you can do today. Is it helpful? Probably not! But it's here! For you to ignore or embrace at your leisure.

This snake really likes being on top of the world

New snake! His owner tragically died last week. He’s an Amazon tree boa, about 6 years old and surprisingly chill!

Obsessive thoughts about getting an Impossible Whopper and pickle fries as I’ve been fasting for surgery since last evening.

Realizing I owe you all some snake content, and I need a distraction, so here you go!

As a surgical scheduler, it’s pretty weird to be on the other side. Surgery today at 3. Fasting since last night. No coffee this morning! 😩😭

Third visit to the ER this week. Luckily it’s a ghost town tonight so maybe I won’t be here for 8+ hours?

I am having A Week. Medical nonsense. Two trips to the ED. Exhausted and I don’t have any time off to use. Fingers crossed that my colleagues will donate some time for me since I can’t go in till Friday most likely. Send good vibes.
