Get in, losers, we’re going to the Cambrian Explosion.

ngl, the Pacific salmon lifecycle has been my Roman Empire since watching that one Magic School Bus episode as a small child #SundayFishSketch

two guys on a bus. one stares melancholy at a cliff face with the caption "not everything is for me" while the other stares excited at a mountain-scape sunrise with the caption "not everything is for me".

y'all, liking things is SO MUCH FUN

I apologise for the lateness of this reply. I briefly thought you were mad at me and stopped being able to form sentences. It will happen again.

Kind regards, etc.

The billionaires can buy the newspapers and buy social media and buy attack ads, but they can't buy their way out of how much we fucking hate all of them.

I mean, what in the neo-liberal, solipsistic, individualist hell is this shit?

The fact that the world unfolds from our bodies does not mean that how the world unfolds for us is the sole way that it unfolds for everyone else. Like, we have different bodies, different experiences. Come the fuck on.

The next motherfucker who claims that not having an experience means that the experience itself is invalid, I will PERSONALLY escort to the gates of sto'vo'kor.

Just because you, personally, have not had the experience does not mean that it is not possible to have the experience.

I...think I'm starting to enjoy Halloween again? And feel a bit sad that the season is ending so soon.

It's so fucking funny that this guy dressed like an off-duty clown and pretended to use a paper map for two days to prove a point, but there's a difference between "Waze uses machine learning to predict routes and traffic patterns" and "we fed every book in the library into an event horizon"

To make a thief, make an owner; to create crime, create laws.

In a game of no consequences, why are you still playing the "good" side? Because being mean makes me feel bad. Because my no-consequences power fantasy is being able to help everyone.

I know #DiNovember is approaching, but my heart is left languishing in the #Paleozoic.

The people MUST KNOW about FISH and MOLLUSKS and AMPHIBIANS and ARTHROPODS and EVERY CREATURE I HAVE NOT NAMED BUT WHO YET DESERVE YOUR TIME, RESPECT AND DELIGHT

Saying this is the kind of thing that should cost me my Bachelor's in classical music performance, but God damn this performance of the "Little Fugue" whips ass

I VISITED AREA X AND ALL I GOT WAS THIS STRANGLING FRUIT THAT CAME FROM THE HAND OF THE SINNER

Monday October 20at 3 1340 Boylston Street Betray our youth, betray our community Fenway has built their reputation and funding based on supporting the trans community. Fenway voluntarily ended gender affirming care for trans patients under 19 in exchange for federal funding. MA law protects trans youth, why not Fenway? MIT and Boston Children’s Hospital continue to fight, why won’t Fenway? We have your back, do you have ours?

There is another rally at Fenway Health planned for Monday at 3PM.

Oct. 11th was #KrakenDay, "...for all the fantastical cephalopods of myth, movies, literature and legend". I was very tired when I had time to post, so I slept instead. Thus, I shall post TODAY.

Today's (10/12) #CephalopodAwarenessWeek observance, #FossilDay, will be observed (here) tomorrow.

The world is improved with the cephalopodic joy that you bring to it!

ALSO: I always look forward to your drawings in your newsletter, along with the rest of it as well!
