Recent studies show that some large bats eat songbirds on night migration, plucking them out of the sky. Studies also show rats wait near bat havens and pluck them out of the sky and eat them. This is kind of a vague turducken for whatever eats the rat, I suppose.

really enjoying listening to Gare's report on Occultured for It Could Happen Here. fascinating glimpse into a world I barely knew existed, and significantly less depressing than everything else on that program!

I can answer this. I interviewed Peterson's tailor a few years ago, although the interview was never published because I fell behind on work. Here is the story of this suit. 🧵

I know I've read too much postfeminist theory in the last 24 hours when it starts making sense

I read so much analysis of Foucault and postfeminist theory today and am going to be the most annoying person ever during my next hookup

Everyone not enjoying Silksong, go sit over there for a sec

Ok everyone enjoying Silksong? How it punishes you and punishes you and punishes you, and you get this sweet sense of release when you finally beat a boss?

That's called edging. You're trying out BDSM. You might consider trying candle pl-
