Not too much good is going on atm, at home or politically, but today we got to give my mum an assisted bath in hospital in the most sci fi bath Iβve ever seen and I started colouring her a nice picture for her hospital room wall. Find the small joys, hm?

Once a week or so, Pumat comes out of his burrow for a bath and rehomes himself somewhere new. New Burrow Night!

Sometimes I find the most fun things in books when they come into stock. Like these notes from inside an Encyclopedia of Demonology and Witchcraft!

Extract from newspaper item in which Lankester is described as a 'man of science' who doesn't tolerate the use of the word 'scientist' in his presence.
If there's one word that the Natural History Museum's former director Ray Lankester hatedβa hideous, inappropriate, undignified neologismβit was 'scientist'. Extract from a 1921 puff piece. An attitude anyone who's read @mbaldwin.bsky.social's brilliant book Making Nature would expect.

Grumpy little strawberry Pac-Man frog in his burrow.
This is my son Pumat. He is very round, a little angry, an apex predator with bad aim.
