A comic of three colourful foxes, one of whom is blue, the other is green, and the third one is little blue, big blue's little brother. In this one, the shading is slightly sharper and brighter than in normal reality, as Blue, Green, and Blue's brother are playing a videogame. Green: Just to warn you too, I have never played a videogame in my life. Baby Blue: Yeah, I know. Both Blue and his brother freeze in horror as Green turns around to look at a cute little purple potato on the ground. The potato has eyes, and is looking right back at Green. A health bar has appeared above Green, and another one beneath the little potato. The potato's health bar is significantly larger than Green's. Green: A "healthbar" means it's aggressive, right? Blue and his brother watch in horror as Green runs off. Blue: Stop running into more of them! Green: I'm trying to run away! Blue and his brother watch in mild disappointment as something unseen but clearly unsavoury happens to Green outside of the panel's view. A text appears above them, saying "<Green_Fox has died of making bad choices>"

Spooky bird stories. My Halloween comic from 2024.
A comic titled Spooky Bird Stories. In panel 1, a turkey vulture is telling stories to other vultures, and it says, "She walked toward the source of the terrible smell. She got closer and closer, and then, to her horror, she saw... No dead body." A black vulture says "No!" and a turkey vulture says "Did someone already eat it??" In panel 2, a northern cardinal is telling a story to some songbirds. It says "They peered through the windows of the house at the gory scene. Zombies had smashed through the door in the night. The homeowner was dead. But worst of all... He hadn't refilled the feeders." An eastern bluebird says "Aaah!" and an American goldfinch says "It can't be!". In panel 3, A screech owl is telling a story to other owls. It says "And then the ghost fluffed itself up really big to appear scarier." A saw-whet owl gasps, and a long-eared owl says "Horrifying!". In panel 4, a downy woodpecker is telling a story to other woodpeckers, and says "The eerie sound rang through the dark woods. Tap-tap. Tap-tap. It was the distinctive two-part knock of the Ivory-billed Woodpecker. The species had returned from the dead... FOR REVENGE." A red-cockaded woodpecker says "Yesss".

I have no idea if this is true but the collage kills me
A black lemur in a leafy tree with its mouth open as if singing, beside an inset photo of Pavarotti striking a similar pose. Text reads: “New research shows lemurs use operatic techniques when they sing, to reach high notes.” Classic FM.

It's the autumn equinox in the northern hemisphere 🍂

Here's the chemistry behind the foliage colour changes we'll be seeing over the coming months: www.compoundchem.com/2014/09/11/a...

#ChemSky 🧪
Infographic on the chemistry of the colours of autumn leaves. Green is caused by chlorophyll, carotenoids and flavonoids give yellows, and oranges come from carotenoids, which also contribute to reds along with anthocyanins.

Cat: YOU'RE EATING EARLY
Me: Yes, Yom Kippur starts tonight and I shall be fasting from sunset.
Cat: WHAT ABOUT ME?
Me: You are not obliged to fast, in fact I'd be worried if you did.
Cat: CAN I EAT EARLY TOO?
Me: Why?
Cat: ...SOLIDARITY?
Me: ...You're not getting two dinners.
Cat: DAMN.

"Perhaps prison would have persisted this way forever. Perhaps our granite hearts and iron wills would have never crumbled. Perhaps the prison mentality, that we be cold and heartless, would have endured.

Perhaps. But then there were kittens."

At the Antimatter Factory at CERN there are vacuum cleaners in cages. Those cages are there because when you vacuum the experiment hall, you might pick up some radioactive material, and so the vacuum has to be in a time out until enough half-lives of the contaminant have elapsed.
