Why am I only just now learning about the honey possum (Tarsipes rostratus)?
There's a tiny marsupial that drinks nectar and pollinates flowers! How was I not informed?

If you're afraid of doing something because you're worried you'll look like a jackass if you mess up, PLEASE know that you will never look like as much of a jackass as the State of Oregon did as chunks of rotting whale blubber pelted onlookers.
They caught the whole debacle on the evening news.

Happy 55th Annual ‘Oregon Blew Up a Whale’ Day, to all who celebrate
50 Years Ago Today, Oregon Blew Up a Dead Whale. With Dynamite. On Live TV.
The blubber chunks were ... everywhere.

If Zohran Mamdani REALLY wants to make New York City safe for everyone, he'll adopt my proposal for the NYPD to train rats and equip them with go-pros and remote-controlled tasers to send into the sewers to maintain order and enforce the laws.
Remember, only a good rat can stop a bad rat!!!

ironically what makes star wars stuff best is when it is 'something else, but also star wars'
e.g. Andor, a British political thriller but also Star Wars
the Mandalorian, an episode-of-the-week Western but also Star Wars (when it was good)

i don't remember who i heard the phrase from on this website, but my motto recently has been "do it scared"
take the chance, go to the event, ask her out. i know it's scary, but you'll feel better once you start doing it
it's ok to be scared, but just do it

And one of the things about getting overwhelmed, or burnt out, or whatever you want to call it, is that it’s like falling into a pit. You have to ACTIVELY work to get out of that pit.
You can relax and try to center yourself all you want, but if you ever want to get out of that pit, it’s ACTIVE.

Thought i was reading old ones enough to keep it in the 20s range, but turns out my phone was auto-archiving 3-week-old tabs. 64 tabs open.
Following Pocket's untimely demise, "27 tabs open" rises to menace my browser once again.
Fuck. Uh, anyone have recommendations for alternative webpage-saving apps? Ideally with some sort of automatic export-to-text API?
I was too late to mourn Google Reader, but I think I have an idea of how that felt now.
