this is one of my fave pics of my late Harvey, who I lost two months ago. I rescued him and then found out most of this 'breed' are deaf and have so many health issues. I see a lot of studies on cats and dogs but few on domesticated rabbits, which makes them seem lesser - he was my absolute world.

Fed some much smaller Cyanea capillata today, but this impressive one was putting on quite a show just doing its thing. #cnidarian love

First degree (journalism), postmodernism and media theory, as I had no idea why, at age 19, I was being shown Twin Peaks scenes and paying for the privilege.

In the second degree (zoology and animal science), physics. Not even the dinosaur puke explainer helped and I got a pass by a single mark.

Picked up at a street library without knowing much and oh boy it’s pertinent to the times. Someone local turns the books into bookcrossing ones so you can trace their journey. Its super wholesome haha

I feel it would be remiss of me to not get #pesto my workmate on this social platform too. He’s slimmed down since he’s lost his floof but he still knows he’s a star
