They are so cuddly! “Cuttlefish have large, W-shaped pupils, eight arms, and two tentacles furnished with denticulated suckers, with which they secure their prey.” (Wikipedia)

Yes, these 2 should not be on television and Rahm should not run for office. I was disappointed that Obama made him chief of staff.

You are so right about hydration and sun protection, et al. I might prioritize those, but the warnings against kettles, tear gas, less lethal weapons are important.
I love your name—my son has a labradoodle.

Tangential to the original post, my 2 most memorable milkshake interactions were an espresso shake in El Paso and a date shake in a shack a couple of miles off the highway btwn Fresno and Bakersfield. Manna in the desert.

Thank you for pointing this out. I hope it isn’t true. I believed it immediately b/c nannies are are treated so badly.

It was. My dtr was stuck in her car seat (and it was hot) w/o a diaper change, and my sister and I thought we might be detained and separated from her. We got through it, but my heart breaks to think of the targeting of innocent people and separation of families.

Took some hours to sort out; they didn’t separate us from my kid, but it made me aware of the knee-jerk hostility towards anyone perceived as being Mexican (or anyone brown/black), and how lucky I was that nothing worse happened

Targeting nannies is horrific. My sister and I (small, dark haired), and my blonde, blue-eyed 2 yr old were stopped at the Mexican border by CBP. Sis and I went to talk to the officers. Dtr in car seat screamed “I want my Mom!’ So they thought I was a nanny who kidnapped her from her real mom.

Wow! It wasn’t when I lived there (admittedly, quite a few years ago.) Bi-coastal Ben must be thrilled.

Yes! They have indeed exploded (trying to figure out if they tend to explode or have sometimes exploded, but I can’t tell). They are inherently cooler than planes, less harmful to the planet. Renaming them blimps was a bad idea. Also, I love this: www.museums.cam.ac.uk/story/a-cent...

Encouraging that there are quiet objections! but I fear it will end with those who beat their wings against the cage they are in will end up on its floor with their claws in the air. (I had a canary who died like this 🥲)
