I had a Russian dwarf hamster who could fit through the bars of his cage and he always went into the piano and the only way to get him back in his cage was attached to your finger as he tried to strip your flesh from the bone

I think it was in a @gregjenner.bsky.social history book where I read about the difficulty in getting cute hamsters to be anything other than murder balls

There's a certain type of person who equates aesthetics with behaviours and they all need to get in the bin

Local, years-old beefs not rooted in prejudice but pettiness are to be celebrated, not resolved

One of the biggest things my dad taught me was how wrong it is to think of family as "my four and no more." If your family is hard for you and you dread holidays as a result, maybe you can spend time with someone who would love kindness this year. Hit me up if you don't see anyone who needs it :)

TIL about a memorial ceremony in Iceland in 2019 to mark the end of a glacier, changing the place name from OkjΓΆkull to Ok (jΓΆkull = glacier). Uncompromising wording on the bronze plaque:
"This is to acknowledge that we know what is happening and what needs to be done. Only you know if we did it".

I love that the pitchfork in the corner gives a vibe that the next scene could place them in a horror film situation immediately

Also thanks for reminding me to relisten to this album and his new one

I just don't understand the "why", it affects all of us so the constant hunger for a scoop that seems to lead to them being manufactured or just manifested by journalists is really damaging

I find it very strange how a legal decision which relates solely to gender recognition certificates – something under 18s definitively cannot have – is being used to justify changes to longstanding policies on including trans kids.

There is a straight line you can draw between Krista's haircut and Julia Roberts' as small Tinkerbell in Hook and it also charts the increased star power of Robin Williams from one movie to the other

I kind of like them because they remind me you rewatch Ferngully and then I get all excited about how much I used to fancy Krista as a kid and then I watch a few Natalie Imbruglia music videos and what were we talking about?
