Not everyone has the bandwidth to follow about infectious diseases right now. This is your CW for an article on avian influenza behavior, & what it might mean for us.
A release from the University of Glasgow, and it's important. Fever may not be affective as a weapon against avian flu. 1/

I find it patently unfair to be rained on all the way home and still have Evil Daystar shining in my eyes. It is a wrongness.

Went to move the cat out of my lap so I could go grocery shopping. She did not approve. I spent the next several minutes cleaning and salving the wounds on my arm. Fortunately none were deep enough to require bandages.

Okay, fake wood veneer gun cabinet is bad enough, but that is just not how you lay out a display. You don’t have to be an artist to know that overlapping the display objects just makes stuff looked cramped.
Though it’s Tate, so he probably thinks that if he makes the guns kiss they have babies.

New book from @elliottkaybooks.bsky.social, Devil In The Details, latest in the Good Intentions series. Having to deliberately take breaks to keep from finishing too fast. Absolutely recommend.

The levels of greed and inhumane thinking on display is actually terrifying.

Good morning and welcome to Pride Month 2025, when "straight" white Christians get on social media, TV, and their pulpits and demonstrate how they think about gay sex way, way more and in far greater detail than than gay people do.

Rug family speak: "Fuzzy slippers!" means "I gotta peeee!"
This derives from a NYE party Mrs Rug and went to where, halfway into the party, a woman came bursting through the door, barefoot, holding a pair of fuzzy slippers, hollering at the top of her lungs, "I gotta peee!" as she rushed toilet-ward

On vacation this week (staycation to use up PTO). My already wonky sleep schedule has gone feral. I'll take a recliner nap, then wake up needing to go to bed for several hours. It's all very weird, even for me.

There's a lot more to fatherhood than randomly flinging semen in every direction and opening a tab wherever it happens to land.

In preparation for today’s Super Bowl in New Orleans, state police forced over 100 homeless men and women onto buses under threat of arrest, dumping them in an unheated warehouse. Tents destroyed, belongings lost. Press are barred from the warehouse.
The price tag for this cruelty? $17.5 million

I realize what a long shot this is, but our kid threw their beloved teddy bear out of the shopping cart at the Target at Sunset and Western in Hollywood. Teddy is much missed if you happen to hear of a missing bear!

Re-watched Halloween today. Never really noticed before, but the sex scenes are really short, like under 2 minutes each, and that's beginning to end. I mean, kinda realistic, but the women seem actually happy with it. Weird.

In retrospect, I wouldn't categorize Twin Peaks as drama or mystery or horror. It's a self-aware soap opera parody. It's primarily a comedy. That's why the terrifying moments hit so hard. You're not really ever expecting them.

But Trump’s merch sales?
They’re heading to the RNC and his Never Surrender PAC—a fund he can tap into for personal expenses.
