Haunted House Sparrow (she/they)

A graph showing the range of ear shapes in ring-tailed lemurs, with photos of lemur heads distributed over X/Y axes. The horizontal axis range has "round" ears on the left and "elf" ears on the right. The vertical axis range has "cat" ears at the top and "airplane" ears at the bottom. Graphic created by Abby Flyer

If you've been wondering how to tell ring-tailed lemurs apart, Duke Lemur Center has a very wonderful graph mapping individual variations based on ear angle and pointiness

Pointiness range is Round to Elf
Angle range is Cat (straight up) to Airplane (side-to-side)

“You’re one of the good ones” is a terrifying sentiment because it means “I at some level think I am an arbiter of your social value” and, well, who asked you buddy

Cherry Kraken, coke, and white chocolate vanilla milkshake was a bold experiment, but I'm not sure I'd repeat it.

Modified Bluesky post originally by Psy Costanza @ganondalf.bsky.social. Text: You simply cannot make me spend my time on this stuff. Oh some dipshit said girls don’t like sci-fi? Well they do. No I’m not going to prove it to you. That’s not what my time is for. My time is for playing videogames and gazing lovingly at my wife.

I believe this was the point where modern Britain jumped the shark.

You both look lovely :)

I was out when I saw it, and very, very tempted to put my cocktail down to read it right away. @nickoctopus.bsky.social would have understood.

Thanks :)

Tragedy! I'm in the mood for goth rock, and my music library is lacking. Any suggestions? The sort of stuff that makes you feel like you should have crimped black hair, a frilly shirt, and a fire hazard of a clove cigarette because you went mad with the hair spray, ideally.

I don't feel too guilty about briefly putting stuff on her, taking a photo, and giving her a treat- my current profile picture has her with a pumpkin balanced on her head- but I'll be extremely happy when she can go free again. She really, really hated the collars, though.

Had to put Gizmo in a recovery suit because we caught her at her stitches. She doesn't seem to actively hate it, although I think it might be a bit corset-like around her stomach (but I've got velcro and fabric, I can probably fix it if necessary).

A warning has been issued after fake letters were posted through letterboxes, claiming people would have to house refugees if they flew St George's flag. The letter said that "patriotic" households displaying the country's flag will temporarily house refugees because ‘we know you would be proud to assist your country’.

lol.

It's #CrispSandwichDay how does it come around so fast?

If you use the pretzel, you don't have to wash the spoon.

I love this :)

All kitties should have a shot at cryptidhood

I think this might be goals or thinspiration for Gizmo.

I hope you feel a bit better soon

One of my craft books has instructions for an embossed metal capsule pendant, and suggests putting a silk map inside. I would love to see a Hookland one. I will be excited about any Hookland stuff, though, and tea towels would make lovely presents.

Listen, I promise you, it's possible to write about transfeminine/transfeminised communities without using the word 'biological' anywhere.

Who wants some random Siberia facts? ☃️ I was born and raised there (left in 2003, never returned), and I've always found it funny how many misconceptions folks have about it. This will be a bit of an ongoing thread...

i'm putting office furniture together in a tiny little swimsuit on cam later if you have the money to see that

Bluesky hive mind... I'm working my way through this book proposal, and one coffee away from melting down, I think. 😂

So please do me a favor, and send me your favorite fall recipes? Give me something to look forward to?

It works for fiction, too! "The Call of Cthulhu" is a documentary, "Notebook Found In A Deserted House" is found footage, "Dracula" is found footage edited for narrative clarity
