Wait, it got better.
He does this a lot, to my deep surprise in undergrad:
For reference, the reason nobody likes this book and you can press tofu with it is that it’s about 1600 pages long.
It’s also, by all accounts, the origin of Cousin Throckmorton
While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a slapping,
As of some one gently flapping, flapping at my chamber door.
“’Tis some fairy,” I muttered, “slapping at my chamber door—
Only this and nothing more.”
Quoth the walrus, "Are you sure?"

Could Dr. Heinz Doofenshmirtz solve the Kira murders?
Could catch Kira, would survive
Could not catch Kira, would survive

Oh, the comments are GOLD
Great job everyone

Trail cam videos of a fox climbing a tree to rest in an abandoned bird's nest:
After discovering this grey fox in an old bird nest I returned to leave a trail camera for a little over a month. In that time it returned about once a week spending a few hours resting before setting out again. In the first clip you can see a second set of eyes already in the nest as the one fox climbs up. I'm curious if it's more than one fox using the nest. I plan on returning with another camera or two to try and capture some more footage. Codylooman on r/trailcam
Today on "I didn't know they could do that"
sorry to post religious ads but i got this ad
and i can't get over how the artist/graphic designer clearly went in knowing they were replicating classic holy white bird imagery and did a decent job with the editing too, except they either don't know what a dove is, don't know that the bird being specifically a dove matters, or just got real lazy and chose the first all white bird that came up in search results because that is fully a seagull in that image
GOD IS COMING FOR YOUR FRENCH FRIES
Plainly these people have NEVER been in Dublin.
The Big White Birds are NOT the fecking Holy Spirit. They are the Thing From Above That Steals Your Pizza.
And not just your pizza.
Your hot dog. Your burger. (They sit on the buildings outside the McDonald's in Grafton Street... waiting. Watching.) Your fries. (They'll swoop down out of the clear blue and make off with the whole bag.) Your sarnie. (They lie in wait around the various Prets in town.) Your ice cream cone. Your juice box. YOUR PHONE IF IT HAS A FOOD-COLORED CASE. (And when this proves inedible, they will drop it in the Liffey. Because, well, fuck you.)
They walk/stalk the streets, unafraid. (They became unafraid during COVID when there were too few people in the streets to chase them away.) They walk right up to you and stare at you in the "Do You Feel Lucky, Punk?" kind of way. When you run at them, they do not fly away. They just back away and then walk right back.
I saw one (apparently thinking the guy was holding a coffee?) try to steal a gent's pint one time. It veered off, shouting, with an expression suggesting that it thought it had been cheated somehow and was looking for a manager to complain to.
If the holy Shekhina Herself should descend on me looking like THAT, I would tell Herself to fuck right off and come back looking less, you know, like she wanted to rip open the garbage bag of my soul and fling the wrappers around in the fucking street. FFS Woman.
(mutter) Welcome to Dublin. Walk warily. And if the feminine aspect of God presents Herself to you, don't get careless. Until you're sure Who's appearing to you, DO NOT EXPOSE YOUR PIZZA.
They're racist too apparently
My wife’s idea of decompressing after the busy holiday was to rearrange every piece of furniture in our home is this an ADHD thing or just a her thing
I’m not complaining the way she’s done it is much better than it was it’s just like how is this your idea of a relaxing weekend
Listen I don't get to decide when the drunk elf that is my executive actually does the functioning but when he does we have a SMALL WINDOW OF TIME before he finds the schnapps again and we're done
yes this exactly
So to me, there are spoons (general energy cost) and carnival tickets (specific energy cost).
Spoons can be used pretty much anywhere.
Carnival tickets are only good for the carnival, and it’s only in town for a limited amount of time.
So like, if I get “kitchen cleaning” carnival tickets, I can’t use that to clean my bedroom, that’s not where the carnival is.

Like two years ago I ran into a salamander biologist in the woods who complimented my ability to 'walk quietly in the forest while causing minimal disturbance to the leaf litter.' Still goes to my head.
I had to get my kidneys imaged a few years ago and the urologist somewhat breathlessly told me "you have absolutely beautiful kidneys." and tbh I've never felt hotter.
My physical therapist/ acupuncturist said my neck muscles were so tight it felt like stabbing bone.
wearing sky-colored shoes to hide from the devil. earth colored hat to hide from god
Iron breastplate to ward off fairies, Fishnet leggings to ward off cod.
You're evil and you know it
good thing they're hidden from god and the devil

I found his bio on societyofpresidentialdescendants.org and it was so delightful I had to copy paste the whole thing:
“Ulysses Grant Dietz grew up in Syracuse, New York, where his Leave it to Beaver life was enlivened by his fascination with vampires, from Bela Lugosi to Barnabas Collins. He studied French at Yale (BA, 1977), and was trained to be a museum curator in the University of Delaware’s Winterthur Program in American Material Culture (MA, 1980). A decorative arts curator at the Newark Museum for thirty-seven years before he retired, Ulysses has never stopped writing for the sheer pleasure of it. Aside from books on Victorian furniture, art pottery, studio ceramics, jewelry, and the White House, Ulysses created the character of Desmond Beckwith in 1988 as his personal response to Anne Rice’s landmark novels. Alyson Books released his first novel, Desmond, in 1998. Vampire in Suburbia, the sequel, appeared in 2012. His most recent novel, Cliffhanger, was released by JMS Books in December 2020.
“Ulysses lives in suburban New Jersey with his husband of 45 years. They have two grown children, adopted in 1996.
“Ulysses is a great-great grandson of Ulysses S. Grant. His late mother, Julia, was the President’s last living great-grandchild; youngest daughter of Ulysses S. Grant III, and granddaughter of the president’s eldest son, Frederick. Every year on April 27 he gives a speech at Grant’s Tomb in New York City. He is also on the board of the U.S. Grant Presidential Library and Museum at Mississippi State University.”
And frankly, the novels sound like they slap:
Desmond was nominated for a Lambda Award.
“With his husband of 45 years.” You kids don’t know ... they got together before AIDS, at the peak of the Gay Glam Life. They stayed together as their generation died around them, and made through it to the point where they could marry and have a legal family. He looks like a chipper preppie who never had a serious thought or care in the world, but it took *incredible* determination, commitment, and also luck to get here.
having now read the first of this man's vampire books, you can absolutely tell that he cares a lot about historical furniture because oh my god he really wanted to tell us about all the historical furniture in this vampire's house. material culture as foreplay. seduction via theses about chairs
US Book ban on LGBTQIA books
The nationwide book ban bill, HR 7661, has progressed out of committee and into the House. Here's what you need to know to take action.
At least hit the shiny repost button if you're going to do nothing else. This should not stand.
Stop the bill dead in its tracks. LGBTQIA people have a right to be represented in books.
