worms live underground where there's no sunlight so they surely have no concept of daytime or nighttime. so then it follows that a bird can get up at any time and expect to find worms to catch, as the worms won't be coming out just because the sun rose

in one of the most "me" things to ever happen, i just found a roll of selotape in bed. like, under my mattress cover. because where else would it be?
failed my "go to sleep" roll. wanna take bets on how long i can hold out before needing to nap?
There are fast days and feast days but no religion has yet had the idea of combining them: feasting while moving extremely fast.
Everyone sprinting about, hands full of food, all day long. Passing each other rotisserie chickens like marathon runners getting cups of water
my ex, who was from belfast, used to call george best airport (as they renamed belfast city airport) alky rapist airport. so i guess some people do, or are at least willing to
apparently goldsmiths was considered hideous when it was first built...
if life could not just be one thing after another after another, i'd really appreciate that please
(no i'm not talking about linear perceptions of time)
get someone else to do it
FURTHER: “degenerate art” was targeted for destruction. Some of these pieces, we only have black and white photos memorializing. Sometimes less.
I’m an author and a librarian to be. Book bans aren’t a badge of honor. They’re violence.
Reinforcing the category isn’t bold or helpful.
this may be a silly question but is there a reason you don't have 2 cat beds so they don't have to fight over it?
there's some who live near me, i see them occasionally. one particularly magical time, i randomly turned my head to look out the window and 3 were crossing the garden of the house opposite
A National wildlife federation job post advertises a position opening for “beaver conflict resolution technician”
I need to know everything about job #6 right now
come on now, there's no need for that kind of thing
i know there's a stereotype of gamers being smelly and unwashed but you don't have to lean into it so hard... ;-)
quite appropriate for a rabbit, really
*shrug* so don't do it then. just saying, it's fun, easy to get into, and there's often a lot of places offering the chance to try it. if it was something you really wanted to do you'd find a way to do it. if it's not, then don't bother. your call
usually you'd do a couple of hours once a week, typically in an evening or at a weekend, as firing the work takes time and if you're decorating it you can't do that before it's been fired the first time, so day courses are a lot less likely to be a thing
i've done quite a bit of pottery at adult education places. it is fun, and it's good for a big range of skill levels too - at its simplest you roll out a piece of clay, place it in a mould and bake it, all the way up to using a wheel and tools. so i say go ahead and do some, what have you to lose?
i knew my hatred of farfalle was justified. pasta with uneven thickness is never going to cook evenly!
is there a problem with using nationbuilder? this is just the first i've heard of this issue is all
We're looking to capture experiences of what it means to be queer in the UK today! To do that we're collecting day diaries for 12th February. It doesn't matter what you get up to, or how you record it, we'd love to have it!🧵 (1/4) #LGBTplusHM #lgbthm26

mine has been the same tbh. in fact has been for weeks. dwp are demanding i fill in a pip review form and it's turned me into even more of gibbering mess than i usually am. having trouble humaning, let alone adulting. so big hugs and solidarity from me
Waking up every goddamn day to this bull shit
The giant puffball mushroom I foraged, nicely tucked up for an early night.
“What is that in your bed?”
“It’s a puffball mushroom I foraged.”
“Why is it there?”
“I was worried it had got cold and sad.”
“But you’re going to eat it soon anyway.”
“The fact that we all have to die at some point doesn’t mean we should not live well, in comfort, before that."
I think at this point the UK has accepted Paddington as the Death Bear, collector of souls. So, I think as a nation we should start smearing marmalade on the eyes of the dead and whisper “fare for the crossing”. It’ll feel weird now but, in three of four generations, no one will question it.
I found a petition to ban smart glasses in public spaces that needs a bit of a boost, if anyone else feels strongly about this: petition.parliament.uk/petitions/73...
hear me out. we just need one rogue bus driver and a map to dignitas...
