Desdemona's Blog

Side blog for me to freak out about my ball python and hopefully make some friends doing it! I have a ball python and a a corn snake. My name's Al, They/them, let's talk snakes!

He has hims own head

[paper--machete]

it bothers me that you often don't really hear about people having a "favorite album" the way they might have a favorite movie or favorite video game

[paper--machete]

fuck it. reblog this and tell me in the tags what your favorite album is

[great-and-small]

I literally cannot express to you how important it is to never touch a wild animal that you can’t definitively identify

(That is NOT a scarlet king it’s a venomous coral snake that very politely allowed this person to live)

@is-the-snake-video-cute some cringe for you

[is-the-snake-video-cute]

Great example of why it's never smart to pick up a wild snake, even if you're pretty sure you can ID it!

If you need to move a wild snake and you don't have a snake hook, a long branch can get the job done. Just be sure to maintain your distance, and always know that calling a professional is an option! If you give your local wildlife services a call, they'll send someone like me to get it for you.

I think about this Coral Snake post all the time and a new contender has risen on facebook for Worst Snake Post:

[Photo descriptions: The first is a Screenshot of a facebook post with the username cropped out, the post says "I FINALLY found my very own juvenile Rat Snake!!! He was vey docile. Wasn’t keen on coming in the house to be shown off. Winky emoji. But he survived and we went back outside. I accidentally made a quick move with my left hand and he let me know he didn’t appreciate it. Shocked emoji, crying laughing emoji. I got the pictures then went out in the rain to set him loose outside of the fence, safe from pups! Three photos are attached to the post, the first showing a hand holding a skinny snake with a large head, the second showing a hand that was bit, and the third showing the snake released.

Second photo is a screenshot a facebook post portion that just says "UPDATE: My I’d skills are evidently not as good as I thought. That is a baby timber rattlesnake. I’m currently in the ER now getting antivenon and pain meds." end description]

this was posted early today to a snake identification Facebook page, please do not seek out this woman to harass her! she went to the ER and her daughter commented she is doing fine.

TIL “Yankee Doodle” was written by the British to mock americans. “Doodle” is thought to come from the German “dödel”, meaning “fool” or “simpleton” and “macaroni,” a flamboyantly stylish type of dress, painting the Yankees as morons who thought placing a feather in one’s cap made them a “dandy.”

[toastpotent-deactivated20250619]

so you’re telling me that “stuck a feather in his hat and called it macaroni” would be like saying “wrote a G on his belt and called it gucci”

[beggars-opera]

that’s…a pretty good analogy actually

[ti-bae-rius]

US moron came to town

Hunting for some coochie

Wrote a G up on his belt

And this bitch called it Gucci

Drimo you are famous please divulge the fact that twitter is about to drop any game accounts bind like arknights where you can log through twitter accounts.

Noone is gonna be able to use twitter to access to arknights very soon.

I’m not famous but I will stress that this is a very serious issue.

Here’s a short article on it, but basically, Twitter is ending free access to its API, thus, games would have to pay for a package to access this, which includes features such as binding syncs for accounts.

Starting on February 9th, free access will no longer be supported, meaning, there’s a very real chance that your Twitter-bound account for your favorite mobile game, like Arknights, won’t be accessible through that particular venue any longer, possibly locking you out of your account. There’s no telling which developers will be purchasing this new access package, so better be safe than sorry: Go to your accounts and make sure they have another bind so you don’t get locked out of them.

Please let as many people know about this, so no one gets locked out of their accounts. Twitter gave a single week’s notice, which might catch some people unaware, and this is sudden on game developers as well, so, again, better be safe than sorry, bind your accounts in other ways if you use Twitter binding.
