For sure! I've lost track of exactly how many breeds and varieties of non-sheep fibers I've tried at this point, but they really are all so different from each other.

I've never gotten along well with BFL for some reason, but I've loved all the targhee I've ever spun -- it's got a great bounce to it.

We really need more people doing "Why are humans so easy to bamboozle?" studies. There were people who thought the ELIZA program from nearly 60 years ago was alive and the core code for that was less than 900 lines, including commentary!

I chugged a lot of water (and sometimes added some electrolytes) the last couple times I went from sea level to visit family in Denver and it seemed to help!

Winsome Earle-Sears, the Black woman running, is the republican candidate (she's also the current lt gov). The white woman running, Spanberger, is the dem candidate.

It's also transmitted specifically by saliva, so the animal doesn't even have to fully bite you to infect you. A coworker had a bat fly into her hair recently and she went ahead and got the vax just in case - it's the same as getting (a series of) flu shots now, not like it used to be.

If Etidorhpa sounds interesting though (and you don't mind a little meandering -- but it's pretty short overall) The Blazing World published 1666 by Margaret Cavendish is another really neat sort of proto-scifi/fantasy novel
