If you were elected to public office (never mind whether you'd ever actually run), what book would you swear in on?

Oops. I feel bad for contributing to shark disinformation.
This picture has been making the rounds again, and is being misidentified again.
This is a GOOSEFISH.
This is NOT a tasselled wobbegong shark.
It’s a great pic. I get why people are very excited about it. But it’s as easy to give it the right name as the wrong one.

What an amazing woman. I’d love to have a boozy brunch with her and listen to all her stories. (Will probably have to settle for just buying the book though.)
Getting to know this legend has been one of the greatest joys of my life and I'm so pleased to introduce you to her with this gorgeous feature from the Inquirer, where she speaks for the first time in over 30 years on her incredible journey

Harlow's still here
Fifty years ago, Harlow was the queen of Philadelphia nightlife, Jack Kelly’s girlfriend, and the city's most famous transgender woman. Today, she’s ready to tell her story.

Everything is terrible but I just finalized our trip to Japan in March. So at least I have something to look forward to. And also I need to re-learn the tiny smattering of Japanese I had for the last trip.

Well, I didn’t get tickets to Taskmaster Live. I’m really bummed out about it, especially since the email about the presale came an hour after it started.

"US Census Bureau data show that AI adoption by companies with more than 250 employees may have *already peaked and began declining or flattening out this year.* Most businesses still don’t see a significant return on their investment when trying to use the latest generative AI tools"

Huh. I learned something today!
When margarine was banned in Canada, it was bootleggers in Newfoundland who kept Canadians supplied.
The manufacturing of margarine is even enshrined in the Newfoundland Act.
This is the story of Canada's Margarine Prohibition Years.

So love wobbegongs. Everything is good about the wobbegong. Its name. Its flattened Oscar the Grouch face. Its frondy bits. Its lazy life as a hungry rug. And it’s a shark. Outstanding animal 10/10
The Tasselled Wobbegong is a master of disguise that can eat a fish almost as big as itself in one gulp. It's classified as a shark, but when it lays on the sea floor it looks like a harmless rug if you manage to see it. But with powerful jaws and sharp teeth they are no fish to mess with.

One of my neighbors has been putting up these fish facts posters. All kinds of different fish, marine, freshwater, deep, shallow, all kinds. This is a good one. “Stg this real fish” took me out. Good work, neighbor.
