Here's a reintroduction thread because it feels like the right time for one. Here's me, my spousal unit Jennie, and the chef statue at Gelsosomo's pizza in Chesterton, IN. We are NOT a throuple - don't believe every cockamamie rumor you read.

Thinking about Christmas presents? Maybe you want to get a book of little paper figures from a classic work of literature for the reader in your life!

My Uncle David was my favorite uncle, and if he was still with us I'm sure that never would have changed. I think he *got* me before I got myself.

My Uncle Jimmy was infected in first wave of HIV/AIDS in the 80s. I was just a kid. I can barely remember him. He was fun, and funny, and played honky tonk piano. He was a Vietnam vet. He bought me LEGOs. :) I can remember his laugh.
I miss him.

The new Ze Frank video reminded me about an adaptation found in some entomopathogenic nematodes - using both their own muscle power and static electricity, they can leap into the air and home in on their host, like an anti-insect surface-to-air missile

Fatal attraction: Electric charge connects jumping worm to aerial prey
A tiny worm that leaps high into the air — up to 25 times its body length — to attach to flying insects uses static electricity to perform this astounding feat, Emory physicists have found.

"small business" is such a funny term bc in it you have like a bunch of little gremlin artists fighting over a dollar and then also a guy who owns every tire store in a tri-city area and they are both like "im a small business"
