It was Special Town Meeting day! This guy showed up for road repair a, solar permitting moratorium, AND accessory dwelling units.
An end view of a burrito that has been cut in half, showing its filling of scrambled eggs, chorizo, tomato, cheese, and potato. It is sitting on a plate with blue and pink geometric design.
Breakfast burrito. I make up a batch and freeze them for weekday breakfasts.
The weekend is upon us! Stretch!

I do love the photorealistic half-rotten fruit portraits.

A blue, rimmed bowl filled with rice, topped with a rich, brown sauce with chunks of eggplant and finely ground pork. A fork is at the top right.
Eggplant in garlic sauce for dinner. ~40 minutes start to finish, because @kevinpjennings.bsky.social kindly pre-roasted the eggplant.
If anyone is friends with any Georgian air traffic controllers, buy them a nice bottle of wine. As guardians of pretty much the only narrow gap still available between Europe and Asia that avoids both Iran, the Gulf, Ukraine and Russia, they are under some substantial pressure.
An immature Lophiomys imhausi displaying specialized hairs and warning coloration (A) and the same individual (center) with an adult male (top right), and female (top left), from the same trap location. The juvenile is being groomed by the male (B). FROM: J Mammal. 2020 Nov 17;101(6):1680–1691. "The secret social lives of African crested rats, Lophiomys imhausi"
The African crested rat (Lophiomys imhausi) is a rabbit-sized rodent with patterned coat.
They have no natural predators which puzzled scientists because they don't display obvious deterrents to large African predators.
That's when studies found they were packing enough poison to kill an elephant.

Organizers! They’re organizers! (I.e., as an American, it’s funnier if the US spelling is used, esp with the quotes. And it’s “funny because it’s true” territory.)
Wait, what? This is fascinating to me, corn chips and tortilla chips are such different textures. Flavor-wise, they’re similar, although also distinctly different.
And every TJ’s one I’ve tried has tasted stale to me, although the texture is similar.

Let's meet Micromelo undatus, also called "miniature melo", a species of "bubble shell" sea snail.
She's got a little art deco backpack!
These snails live in shallow waters at locations around the world (Hawaii, South Africa, Japan).
The military very much wants to get rid of those guys. A family member who was special forces said they all went blackwater and they were scary as shit.

100% agree. I barely know her and don’t want to publicly hate on people who live in my community, but this profile confirmed some vibes.
Always weird to see a NYT puff piece on someone you know. (Not a friend, barely an acquaintance. Still weird.)

Also, please stop inventing your own personal data lifecycle. No, “disposal” cannot flow back into “create”, it’s a DATA lifecycle, not an activity lifecycle. Ur data is GONE. You have disposed of it.
Reading stuff for work, and it is so, so obvious that people are reading things for what they *think* they say, not what they literally say.
I drew so many (much less fancy) diagrams like these in my articulatory phonetics course. I did not realize how far back they go.
You can play with an interactive one here, and no, I don’t remember why its name is Sammy: incl.pl/sammy/
A large square slice of pizza on a yellow plate.
Taco pizza night! A focaccia crust (from a @kingarthurbaking.bsky.social baked potato pizza recipe) baked with refried bean-based sauce, cheddar & mozzarella, leftover taco meat, sour cream, tomatoes, & chives. Surprisingly delicious!
Especially directly following “deletes her past completely”.
I did find a video that may help, if it’s actually the same Horizon. We have found more and more that YouTube is the only place to find this type of information for appliances, and it’s hard to search effectively for anything older.

A cat who once had a big suburban house and a hugely stressful prestigious job and now lives on a cliff instead, free of the trappings of modern life, to the admiration of its friends, who, as they idealise its life, never imagine the terrible loneliness it feels during cold winters, six miles from the nearest shop, cinema and pub.
