Who wants to see some medieval animals?

I'm doing some transcription of the encyclopedia of Bartolomeus Anglicus. Book 18 is about animals. This manuscript (Bibliothèque Sainte-Geneviève Ms. 1029) has all the animals drawn in the margin.
"Closedown" episode 2 of 6. In tonight's episode: Squidgeberg discovers quicksand, we learn what ORACLE really stands for, Michaela's a long way from "Scorchio!", the ident's gone all knockoff Lambie-Nairn, and Steve's just taking the mickey.

Trans people have been around your whole life. You’ve been sharing bathrooms with them your whole life. They’ve been in your communities your whole life. They’ve even been playing sport your whole life.

And you didn’t care *at all* till a few years ago when every right wing org decided you should

In general “bimodal but not binary” is something that seems to break brains a lot. Like a specific type of personality really dislikes the idea that something is neither a neat continuous distribution nor a on/off. It’s a type of complexity that just drives some people nuts, not just on gender stuff
Biological sex is a spectrum too, not just gender. That’s not postmodern nonsense, it’s reality as revealed by science. Sex is a cluster of phenotypical characteristics that tend to, but do not always, correlate. The spectrum follows a bimodal distribution, but that’s not the same thing as a binary!
Abolish Gender is so 2012, get in losers, in 2025 we are abolishing sex

Brimstoner, millstoner,

Whipped many millions through
Works that he penned;
Each one repaid by some
Disciplinarian
Demon who sees to his
Ultimate end

Gamō Ujisato levels a charge of treason. A golden cross comes before a silver-tongued excuse about wagtails. And Date Masamune again manages to charm, bewilder, and lobby his way out of disaster. #DragonAscendant Ep. 15, "A Wagtail's Audacity" buff.ly/zmwwees #podcasts #JapaneseHistory

Back in the day, if you insulted a knight you'd go to jail.

And if you insulted a nobleman, you'd just diss a peer.

Rowling is advocating taking photos of strangers in toilets and disseminating them.

Yet she actually sued someone twenty years ago for taking a photo of her kid.

I can see one or two advantages to this idea, as well as several colossal reasons we should drop the idea right now
The BBC & Telegraph are trailing Wes Streeting’s technophile health plans, including genomic mapping at birth.
Is this really gonna transform the NHS into a prevention service within 10 yrs, as Wes claims? For v rare genetic conditions, praps. But for the real burden of disease?

Thoughts, #medsky?

But if you're without AC, or you're dealing with a heat wave for the first time because it's reaching areas that don't historically get this hot, here are a few tips from my years of poverty in a desert:

There is not a single reason or excuse to use Generative AI, not in its present form or even if ever. There is NONE. NONE. Its simply laziness and wanting the convenience of having a facsimile, a McDonald's cheeseburger of art slop in your lap.
