Wittercism and crittercism.
The Cabin in the Woods (2011): a touching story of star-crossed love between a misunderstood girl and an unfortunate wolf. Plus some other stuff. But guess which scene I remember best. Go on, guess.

Would you like to be chased by a pack of hounds?

Nicholas Hoult (seen here in "Juror #2") is a preposterously, ridiculously beautiful man.

An astonishing gift from @6skeleton9man.bsky.social, as a thank-you for support rendered during tough times.

I'm proud of myself for tackling this, but I feel so fucked right now. :)

I've never seen Haitian Creole before and I think it may be the most charming language I've ever seen.

Quick artistic-freedom commish of some wolf or other from your friendly @locallycan.bsky.social. ♥

Cursed anagrams. Apparently "hwoer" is the Cornish for "sister", which doesn't really help matters.

Or maybe not: looking through his previous titles, he seems to have form for a certain backhanded slyness.

AND THE HORSE YOU RODE IN ON

Payment processors unilaterally declaring themselves exempt from the force of law? I don't even live in the US, this doesn't even apply to me, but I'm not signing that crap.

Okay. About 3½ weeks of increasing distraction from the diet. A bunch of travel, holiday, family, general life disruption, and antibiotics that made me nauseous if I didn't eat. Understandable reasons to slip. Now it's time to reassert my goals and start putting things back together. #WeightLoss

Thank you; working on it!

Casually strolled into a little municipal library I happened to pass, and wow, their selection is LIT.

I know that valley. I kind of should have died in it because I was stupid pup, but I didn't because I was lucky. I want to go back there one day (safely) and make my peace with the spirits of the place.

Suddenly I'm seeing UK age-verification warnings and all the adult material has disappeared from my BSky feed. To which I say to all UK legislators: suck my pendulous bronze prominently-publically-displayed-and-therefore-incontestably-age-appropriate Bahkauv bollocks.

Look at his face (if you can bring your eyes that high). Poor guy's desperate!

@khaki.dog The Bahkauv sends his regards. In entirely unrelated ideas, let's go out drinking in Aachen.

Crumbs. My scrappy little blog post made the LiveJournal charts? LiveJournal must really be a zombie site at this point. How low the mighty are fallen...

It's always obscurely gratifying when the doctor thinks your symptom is a nice enough example to call the med tech over to share the experience. #ErythemaMigrans

Jonathan Rhys Meyers in "Velvet Goldmine" (1998) is a preposterously, ridiculously beautiful man.

I've loved that film ever since my vibrant and crazy cousin Clare took me to see it in the cinema. I remember people walking out in disgust. More fool them.

If I graph "extra heartbeats" (heartbeats above 60 bpm), it tallies remarkably consistently with my calorie expenditure across different exercise modes. About ⅙ of a calorie per heartbeat.

All data from my mid-range Chinese smartwatch, for whatever that's worth.
