Good afternoon chat. Quick, someone give me a reason to not dm mothman and be like “hey wanna go back to that tortuous flirting arrangement where you send me a single sexual meme or your depraved 3am thoughts once a fortnight and then pretend I don’t exist the rest of the time that makes me feel like an unlovable sack of shit every time without fail?” just to feel something other than the unyielding and crushing emptiness I’ve been living in for the past 6 weeks

It's been a few years since I last did a custom on Breyer's Stablemate Rivet mold! He's been repainted to a sooty buckskin with lots of dapples, one of the nicest paint jobs I've done in a while.

He's available at https://www.etsy.com/listing/4546494433/ternion-breyer-custom-stablemate-rivet

Uncharismatic Fact of the Day

Have you seen this worm? The rose velvet worm is a species of velvet worm found only in the Ngele mistbelt forest of South Africa, and was last seen in 2012. Due to heavy logging, the species is considered critically endangered and possibly extinct- but given that it primarily lives under logs and leaf litter, it could just be very good at hiding.

New local scandal is an old woman who will walk down to her mailbox in her robe, then, when no cars are driving by, lay down next to her mailbox as if she’s fallen or been hit by a car. Tourists will stop, help her up, and walk her to her house. Then, after they leave, she’ll repeat this until she’s bored with it.

Her neighbors have called the cops a bunch but have been told that it’s not illegal to fake being an old lady in peril so soft-hearted tourists or newcomers are nice to you. One of the neighbors sometimes yells “oh, get up, Lois!” at her. But overall local sentiment is that this is at least somewhat enviable levels of not giving a fuck.

A good book really will rewire your entire brain. I'm chewing on the walls of my enclosure. I'm crying. I've been reborn as a new person. I love reading.

I won't know if someone made a mistake or if this is straight misinformation, but H.R. 5334 is the Supporting Early-Childhood Educator C's Deductions Act. This adds early childhood educators (like pre-school teachers) to the tax deductions other teachers get. That's it. Yes, it passed 86 to 12. The list of the people who voted Nay is also correct, but this has nothing to do with Russia or Ukraine.

It wasn't created by Lindsey Graham. It was proposed by a Democrat.

This is straight up untrue.

I apologize for not noticing that

Ok, this is a weird one, because it seems that senate.gov (which is where the original tweet author, as well as Reuters and Politico and everyone else reporting on this would have gotten their info from), has mistakenly labeled a vote on the Senate Russia Sanctions bill (bill #S 5025) as being a vote on an unrelated House bill (bill #HR 5334) on education-related tax policy

This is particularly weird, because all the debate and discussion was surrounding the Russia sanctions package, and it doesn’t appear that there was a vote on this education tax bill at all, despite what Senate.gov says.
