I was out at the lovely @infamousfiddler.bsky.social ‘s gig last night and a guy at the bar asked me what my tshirt meant and I had to explain/admit that it’s just a shirt that a rockstar wore on stage once and I think it’s funny to wear it and it is not a reference to anything specific.

This book is so cool—a smart, beautiful, and surprisingly touching puzzle to unlock. Great for people who love occult books and want to tease out a mystery in a puzzle. Took me about an hour and was difficult enough to be fun but not so hard as to be frustrating. roomofonesown.com/search?q=Cod...

Honorary runner up is Beorn, a hybrid boa that my partner and her officemate got at Snake Discovery! He is the most beautiful snake I’ve ever seen. Here’s a video from SD about his clutch (starts about 5min in) youtu.be/PfgYu4wVdE0?...

This is Chance (Chancy-Pants). She was an oops from the breeder and is a spider morph, they often have a ‘wobble’ gene—a neurological condition that interferes with her proprioception and makes it hard for her to eat and move safely, so breeders try not to breed them. She is SO pretty and so sweet.
