Terrific thread!
Hippocrates attributed women's "madness" to the
uterus, which he believed would wander through the body if not full. As a cure, he prescribed regular marital sex, which would fill the uterus with semen (for their healing properties), and with pregnancies (to keep it from wandering). 3/

Every single artist that posts on BlueSky should have this saved to their computer because so many of you are posting character torsos all day.

The deepest confirmed fish observation occurred at ~8,300 m. I know the shape behind it is another fish’s tail, but my brain insists it looks like the foreground fish is wearing a party hat. #deepsea #marinelife

Personal vid today, folks, but with a lot of wisdom attached.

I'm sharing my journey from a 15-year career as a Wall Street trial lawyer to a life rooted in social justice.

On paper, I had everything, but underneath was a persistent question: is this really all there is?

I'm pinning this link, where you can subscribe to my writing: the-villager.ghost.io. I work very hard on it, it's how I pay the rent, and it's algorithm-free. I'm hoping those of you here who enjoy what I do will check out my archive/subscribe/share, as it's where I will mostly be from now on.

This reminded us of David Lynch rescuing five Woody Woodpecker dolls from a gas station in 1981. He named them Chucko, Buster, Pete, Bob, and Dan.

We miss you, David.

I like Bluesky but getting answers on issues is near impossible.

Anyone else having problems with videos such as the screen locking after completion or the video stopping half way through?

I have to close the app and open it again. Annoying. No problems on other apps.
