I live in the borders between. Total nerd & crackpot. Musician (electric harp, synth, etc.) interested in too many things: food, drink, nature, astronomy, history, languages, anthro-archaeo-paleontologies, movies (SFF-horror-comedy-arthouse), books, etc.!
Pinned
A harp has strings. A harmonica does not. Sometimes slang is stupid.

This ridiculousness made me laugh quite hard.
Happy Saturday!
(Also, since we're on the subject: if I was Lucas in ST, and they kept playing it to try to help Max wake up, I would absolutely LOATHE "Running Up that Hill" at this point. Just, be absolutely filled w rage at the beginning synths.)

The star-nosed mole (Condylura cristata) is an evolutionary wonder with "stars for eyes".
They're exceptional in so many ways: they're the fastest-eating mammals, they're just as comfortable in water as (under) the land, have exceptional nerve conduction & senses you don't have access to.

Always ask whose crimes are seen as incriminating a whole population and whose aren't. "During 2018–2021, a total of 3,991 female victims of intimate partner homicide were reported to NVDRS...." www.cdc.gov/mmwr/volumes...
Killing is bad, and to that end I'd like to call attention to the dozens killed in small boats in the southern Caribbean by the Trump Administration and the estimated 600,000 who've died of preventable disease and starvation thanks to the administration's destruction of USAID.

Go my Bothriolepis... This year's fish pecan pie! Bothriolepis was a peculiar-looking placoderm from the Devonian period or the Paleozoic. It had two long pointed pectoral fins and silly little eyes on top of its head.

These guys are great! I donate every year and may I suggest that some of the crafts they sell on behalf of the elders make great Christmas presents?
Time once again to rep my favorite place for giving: anelder.org - they supply food, firewood and supplies for traditional crafting to Navajo Elders. If you have the cash, please give these folks a hand.
