Monster Of The Week 294 is Eggbox, kind of sensitive, you need to walk on eggshells, can't take a yolk, sorry about that, it's the audience, they demand this kind of humour you know? Exactly.

I'll do another terrain-board specific build thread (using pics from the 12x16' Mordheim board I built for Salute about 12y back) at some point, including meteorite crash site and built largely from cheap eggbox doors bought at Wickes... same techniques used here on a model of the Dominican Republic

Update: he refused to come out, bit me, accepted three seeds, then stomped off to continue shredding the eggbox I gave him

It's the middle of the night and I hear Ohtori stomping around on his cage floor errping and BAHing and shredding the eggbox I leave as a nightly offering
One like and I'll try to get him out for late-night pets (and he'll probably bite me for it)

Pearly Underwing (2nd garden record) was the highlight amongst a surprisingly migrant-poor 132/36 in the Upton trap this morning, alongside 4 Rush Veneer & 2 RDP, with Dewick's Plusia, 2 Pediasia contaminella & Musotima nitidalis the other notables @migrantmothuk.bsky.social @dorsetmoths.bsky.social

This Southern Oak Bush-cricket was in my shed this morning overseeing me as I emptied the #TeamMoth trap. It's the first time I've ever seen one (a recent arrival in Norfolk having colonised southern Britain since 2001). Beats the slightly tatty Dewick's Plusia that was in the trap.

For ease, leave egg in eggbox. Position corkscrew over it w/ pointy bit central. No need for tape for egg blowing: end to end an egg is STRONG (sciencedemonstrations.fas.harvard.edu/presentation...). Give corkscrew confident tap with pestle. I go for tiny hole at blowing end/bigger one at fatter end
Egg Shell Strength
What it shows: Eggs have a reputation for being quite strong under compressional loads. You won't believe your eyes when you see how strong they actually are — an egg can support a person!

You yourself openly admitted that you call it a "carton of eggs." It's entirely possible that people were doing the same until Dickens coined eggbox, and STILL nobody has provided any ACTUAL evidence of it being used prior to Dickens. Evidence matters, and it is currently on my side.

Look Joz. I invented the term eggbox to mean scrotum. Wish I'd done that before I did a whole book and show about it.
Against Dickens. I am punching up. Right in the eggbox,
Ok, well this is (to quote a great man) just punching down now.

I saw this at the latest Eggbox showcase and I can't stop thinking about it ever since. Jazz Emu's haunting corporate frivolity ballad accompanied by a stunning video made by dozens of talented people (full credits in the video description).

People marching are mad as hell at how the system has failed, enabling an UNQUALIFIED man—adjudicated insurrectionist, convicted rapist & convicted felon—to corruptly coup his way into the Presidency. The US is sleepwalking into autocracy. We’re in the streets to say NO! RESIST! #donotobeyinadvance

It has rained here, too. I'm carrying on in the belief that some moths want nothing more than a soggy eggbox.

“Mrs EggBox”, I said hopefully
“I’ve run out of wall space in this room, could I just…?”
The threat of divorce is a great leveller… 😂
