Dear Mobius Stripper, your Bluesky pic oddly resembles an abstract erotic dancer who lacks a spine. If only the Democratic Party had attended the SOTU in the nude it would have been more entertaining and perhaps made their need for spine more clear.

A mushroom with a soft orange cap & a yellow stipe, is popping out from behind a fallen  brown & yellow leaf. In the shadows behind the mushroom, a much smaller mushroom can be seen on the left.

#Fungi #MushroomMonday From late September in 2024, this lovely little mushroom and it's tiny companion hadn't yet been discovered by slugs.

Photo of a fruited slime mold consisting of dozens of thin brown tubes on thin, wire-like stalks. The tubes are all flopping over, looking like an β€œexploding onion” dish.

Oops! I read β€œgoose barnacles” which can’t be what you have in the Lower Derwent Valley, even with rain.

Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again.

Serious question: Who writes Trump's tweets? He is known to do little reading or writing, and his speech is very often disorganized. How do relatively well-written tweets appear on his account at night when his cognitive faculties are likely to be less than their best?

IMDB Movie reviews.

Favorite review: β€œIt is the most terrifying horror movie I have seen since Eraserhead. The tension! Will the table setting be symmetrical? If the fork is out of alignment, will the simulation crash?”

She made intentional, conscious choices that were immoral and likely illegal. She is responsible, guilty.
