I took my dog on a walk today. Saw what I thought was a pretty big, fuzzy moth nestled into some tree bark. Took my husband and our friend over to see it. They did not think it was very big.

“If two mass shootings in less than 24 hours won’t make them listen and won’t spur them to action, what will?”

If they had actually read the book they’d know McCandless got stranded at the bus because by summer the snow melt made the river impassable on foot 🤦🏻‍♀️

What is the average age of the readership of this site? I ask because this is one of those times where I’m genuinely curious about how many of the regular readers have any actual memories of the thing being discussed. I mean, who here so much as remembers the hysteria surrounding his death (wasn’t he also an…

You know what, I think Scarlett is right. She would be perfect in the role of the tree, it would suit her wooden and stiff acting style.

I never met him, and I doubt he’d be terribly interested in me had we met, but I have always loved the Anthony Bourdain shows about travel and I’m still really really pissed…

Lab assistant at the UW Dept of Pharmacology. This was also my first job at like 18. My buddy’s Mom was head of the Dept and needed help for the summer for a backlog of tasks they didn’t have the manpower for when school was out over the summer.
