Slowmo Pog exercises

Just here to drop bunny pics. Illegitimi non carborundum.

Someone came out of the yarn room

🧵I'm listening to a book by someone whose work I respect & as sometimes happens, was hit by ignorant & frankly antisemitic language around Jewish scripture & "the Old Testament God" that, whenever I hear it, I feel like my head's going to blow off. So. A thread! Fun!

We don't talk enough about the benefits of curling up and avoiding things.

is that good

This is your reminder to download your kindle books onto a device where you can keep hold of them if Amazon decides to remove them. They'll be removing that option on the 26th of this month. 5 days. So back up your library!

This is such a funny phone call for a chief whip to get, because the situation being described doubles in badness every four or so words.

Ancient critters

I was reminded that I really need to finish mainlining @justthezooofus.bsky.social so that I can volunteer to infodump about rabbits to them, so I opened my podcatcher and found that not only was I up to the cockroach episode, but there's a new @asabpod.bsky.social ep out

End of a world from 66 million years ago. At least we’re not as helpless in the face of crisis as they were. In the darkness of a nuclear winter, two dinosaurs watch as their world burns. From my 2021 book Dinosaurusten aika selkokielellä (The Age of the Dinosaurs in easy read Finnish).

Safety negotiations with rabbits

A study in 2014 points to much of the ice-age megafauna having had diets high in nutrient rich flowering plants. Of course flowering plants need pollinators, Mason bees, bumblebees and leafcutter bees most likely provided those services. The large and small interconnected in a complex relationship.

Jana just sent me pics of a pair of featherless emu chicks from a rescue in Florida - they look like little Jurassic Park dinosaurs! The tiny wings are killing me.

🌙 I’m running with the wolves tonight. 🐺 A new piece I’ll be debuting next month at WonderCon! Come see me at the Artist Alley!

That last one has huge Thumb Cramps energy

HEADLINE: CDC posts, then deletes, data on bird flu spread between cats and people. The data which appeared fleetingly online on Wednesday, confirmed transmission in two households. It is evident the CDC is being muzzled SO let’s talk about what YOU can do to PROTECT yourself AND your pets. 🧪🧵 ⬇️

No Bee movie script spam here! When you select "NO" for "Was this page helpful?", be prepared to write an actual 500-character-limit response about censoring transgender people from Stonewall's history. www.nps.gov/ston/index.htm

So someone asked me to retell the story of the old lady that told me about killing her husband. Are we ready for a trip back in time to 1999? Some of you already know this story, but if you don't it is a wild ride. Apply all appropriate trigger warnings!

In 2014 Dutch scientists left a hamster wheel outside, to see if wild animals would use it like their domesticated counterparts. The answer: hell yes! 734 visits from wild mice - plus rats, shrews, slugs ("running" being subjective here) & even frogs and snails. The apparent reason: fun. Just fun.

drove myself bonkers tracking down this @bencjenkins.bsky.social article bc 1) the gawker site / any reference to it is gone 2) original tweet was impossible to find via x search 3) anyone saying "just shits me" online is NOT doing so in places google deems important web.archive.org/web/20230329...

Science is so cute, please watch this video abstract

just over here photoshopping muppets onto the cover of cosmopolitan magazine: thread

I don't see a way to report the name on Maps using my phone, so instead I left a review: "Calling it the Gulf of America is the worst thing that's happened to it since the Chicxulub asteroid impact that killed the dinosaurs".

Man I love playing Hades

Bird nests made from anti-bird spikes?! 🤯 Hi, I'm a nest researcher 👋 and new here on BlueSky, sharing the craziest #bird nests I've ever found. 👀 Today, I’m sharing my discovery of rebellious birds that build nests out of anti-bird spikes. And honestly, it's like telling a joke... A thread. 🧵

bringing back some #InvertebrateShitposting from the archives

Please, science Bluesky. I am begging. I need to know the most ridiculous looking species. Please tell me what the weirdest little weirdos on the planet are. Give me your weirdest animal facts. My feeble grip on sanity is dependent on you.
