Was told by a vet that you can 'probably' perform CPR on a snake, and all I could think was...
a man wearing a party hat is drinking from a bottle
Alt: A fella in a party hat blowing one of those party streamer things that unroll as you blow into them. Whether snakes give a merry toot when you do this to them isn't mentioned in the scientific literature. Yet.

The abolishment of kerning is next - it "adjusts" between letters, depending on such things as "optical density", and is a clear contraction of White Space.

The only thing Linktree has done wrong with this is that Terms of Service Panic Season is a holiday traditionally celebrated in late January/early February, and I refuse to cater to this aggressive expansion of the annual observance, dammit

The real question is not "Why is Bluesky so left-coded," the real question is "Why can't the right exist in a social media environment without algorithmic assistance, where people can ignore them"

If you or anybody else hasn't read it i won't spoil it but the history of that giant Command System on Schar's World sets a perfect tone for the conflict and foreshadows much of the consequences of the war

For a book shrugged at as Banks' clumsy first Culture book, it's actually wonderful

Hi John! I do stickers and cards from my small art — mostly small beasties, often wearing hats.

I'm on Etsy, but I have more stuff on my own site so I'll post that link: www.metasilk.com/shop/

Thank you!
(P.S. if anyone prefers Etsy for any reason, let me know and I'll post that link!)

My favorite personal movie take is that the Aliens forklift is easily the greatest Chekhov's gun in all of film.

It's #DoctorWhoDay. 62 years ago, Sydney Newman and Verity Lambert created a children's television program which made me a happier little boy. It taught me that no matter what the circumstances, you always have a duty to do the right thing. Thank you, Doctor, for making my universe a better place.

The Viking culture was, in fact, an ancient form of the cat distribution system.
Orange fur showed up shortly before cats reached Scandinavia. You can track where, and when, the Vikings went by when the orange gene entered the local cat gene pool. They took cats *everywhere*.

Back in uni days a friend & I compared notes on the most unlikely combinations we were faced with on the conveyor belt coming through the checkout. She won with the customer buying KY jelly & a pineapple.
Still makes my eyes water at the thought😬

So it turns out a person who spent a year dealing with various assholes in business suits in order to get a job can deal quite well with the final boss of assholes in business suits, lol.
