Her ear is purple because the light is coming from the right. The top of her ear is in shadow - but it’s also being lit from underneath, through the thin skin of her ears. And her ears are pink because of her skin color, her fur color, and the blood running through. Blue/twilight shading from being in the shade, mixed with being underlit with pink, is purple.

I’m so glad he’s feeling better!

Local community scrip?

But … but why would you open the window in -5°c?

You monster!!

No idea if it’s true or not but there was a rumor back in the day, that “natural flavors” was code for just a tiny bit of catnip essence.

In 2024, creative industries minister Chris Bryant admitted that Brexit had made touring in Europe “simply not economically viable” for many artists.

It’s an interesting look into older architecture, but I feel many architects today have higher priorities than making sure the house faces South and has thick walls - like getting the houses oriented along whatever street they put in and not having the house cost the same as a medieval castle. I think what’s most disappointing is that, in the end, the only “changes” the author even considers making are moving a desk and maybe planting a tree.

I appreciate the article, I’m just disappointed in the author.

Part 4.

Truth in advertising: they renamed the Department from Defense to “Department of War”.

Perhaps the game Noodle is playing isn’t the same as the game you’re playing.

Ygritte is cosplaying as Loki this Halloween!

They can travel faster - but you would need one capable of making a 13 hour trans-oceanic flight, plus the crew. I think the time “saved” by a faster-flying plane would be offset by finding and fueling the plane, finding the crew and getting them to the airport? I don’t know, I’m not an aviation expert, I’ll just going on feelings here.

Wait, what? It’s like a 13 hour flight to Moscow, and it’s been less than 13 hours since the attack. How did the logistics on that work?

When you’re paying over 50k to climb the mountain anyway, an additional 4k isn’t very much.

I like how the metal on the head is all smooth from people petting the little cat :)

Where’s the “rest of the world” image from? I know it but I can’t remember and it’s really bugging me :(

You have very colorful lights in your room!

Yeah, it’s just me now as well. I split a share with a friend for a few years, which was nice, we could pawn off anything we didn’t particularly care for on the other person. Mostly, it worked well - she loved beets, I hate them; I love garlic, she only wants like 2 bulbs a year.

Then my farmers retired during the pandemic and I had to find a new farm. My new place offers 10 week shares: any ten weeks during the growing season, I can go and pick up a box, I don’t even have to notify them ahead of time. I cook as much as I can and freeze about half of it, then eat my way out over the winter.
