I feel like you posted it already (and I looked, I swear), but can you share the file or link to the file for the whistles? We have a 3D printer and I feel a need to distribute them here in the DC suburbs...

If you'd asked me if it was possible for them to lose Newsmax, I'd have hurt myself laughing too hard. Wooooow.

This is both the darkest and the most painful timeline for SO MANY reasons. The need to say things like "[Generally awful human being] is right" and not be joking or ironic is definitely one of them.

It's like my rule that if you're not, for example, George Bernard Shaw, you probably shouldn't write sentences that are >100 words.

I definitely feel that there are many writing stunts that shouldn't be attempted if you're not Terry Pratchett.

Bwahahaha! I mean, I assume it's from a researcher, but it sure does look like they interviewed an ant :D

I loooove The Leopard King and that whole series is fab :) I'm intrigued by the Sirantha Jax series, which I haven't read yet!

There's little as satisfying as having a survey pop up for something that infuriates you. I have twice gotten a survey for US healthcare websites that are horrid. "Would I like to take a survey? How much space did you allow me in the boxes, hon?" (Both called me later...)

Oh, now that's confusing. Do we have to be in a legally declared war for war crimes or is that just a phrase for crimes that involve killing people with military means?

What about crimes against humanity? (I don't know if that's even a technical term.)

They're so cute and the whole show kinda broke my heart but I love those characters!

::blinks:: What? Like...what?

I'd really like to have a snappy comeback, but I'm honestly staring at my phone saying "what?" repeatedly. Because...what?

I might send this to my kids, so they can be confused along with me.
