@extraneousaccessories
This is Sprite. He lives at chez @fishteriously and he likes to Ascend. His favorite activities are going Up and being picky about the temperature of his food.
The only dancer I go to see at the strip club

I don't see anything wrong with Sprite Ascending, I was just wondering what kind of snake he is
What a wonderful video of a beautiful snake! Sprite is a very handsome green tree python.
Instead of dollar bills can we throw some mice?

ACTIVE COYOTE ALERT
They do look active.
#it looks like it’s sounding out the letters on the sign #I love it (via @taibhsearachd)
TV Executives: “if the strike goes in, you won’t get new episodes of your favorite shows! You won’t get new movies you were looking forward to! Isn’t that terrible, what the writers are doing to you?”
Me: Bitch, that might have been an effective threat in 2007, but we have since survived a Covid shutdown and discovered ways to amuse ourselves while we waited, we can outwait this shit, too. I got a pile of shows saved I haven’t even watched yet, and a Mt. TBR waiting for me.
Compensate (and respect) your writers for their work, assholes.
It's just hilarious that they're trying to pull this whole "but your favorite shows!" nonsense.
Oh, you mean the shows you cancel after the third season no matter how good they're doing to avoid paying writers residuals? The shows that get produced and then never aired because you found a nice tax writeoff? The shows whose writing suffers because the writers' room got six weeks to write before getting booted and making the showrunner adapt all their scripts? The shows you straight up pulled from your streaming service to scam their crews out of rewatch money?
I will happily sacrifice my shows for the writers that gave them to me, no questions needed, but if anyone tries to say that the blatantly terrible way streaming treats its writers is somehow beneficial to shows, remind them of Infinity Train and Batgirl. That's the ideal they're pushing towards if someone doesn't say no, and we should be thankful that the writers are doing that for us.

Wentke (Gown)
Mid 18th Century
The Netherlands
Women in Hindeloopen, a town in the northern Netherlandish province of Friesland, traditionally wore this type of striking lightweight coat, called a wentke, on special occasions. Beginning in the mid-eighteenth century, wentkes were usually made of boldly patterned Indian chintzes, and contrary to the custom in the rest of Europe of confining chintz to casual and private occasions, residents of Hindeloopen elevated this exotic fabric to a formal status. The wentke was often worn with other garments of Indian cotton. (The MET)

So here’s what the silhouette looked like:

(source for both images: The Mysterious Hindeloopen Chintz Wentke Revealed by Gieneke Arnolli. This article can be found online as a PDF and has some great info about the wentke and the kassekijntje!)

As per my last clay tablet,
i hope this evil reaches you well.
EMAIL . I HOPE THIS EMAIL REACHES YOU WELL.

Just so we're all on the same page with the writer's strike.
If during the strike, it's announced about AI generated shows. We are not watching them. Not even out of curiosity. Let them fail every AI generated show they try make.
The human voice can not be replaced by AI. Don't let them try.
ok sure fine
My partner: Takes me to a beautiful beach at sunset with his family.
Me: "Look! Algae mustache!"
Can't take a phychologist anywhere nice.
Try “psychologist” instead. Spelling counts people…learn how or look it up in the dictionary for a change
Hi there, @mac-3-impact !
A phycologist (with an H) is someone who studies algae.
I am a phycologist (with an H) because I study algae. That's why me putting algae on my face is the joke!
Glad to be part of your learning journey today.
