Not going to p+ just to watch SNW while current situations are ongoing, but I'm hearing vague snippets of exasperation from other Star Trek fans... so in lieu of reviews and at the risk of opening a can of worms:
@ Those who are watching it, what the heck is up with SNW to cause this rumbling?

Call to action for Philly:
I made a printable 8.5x11 flyer for Tuesday's rally. If anyone has the willingness to print and hang this around town, I think that would be great.

I seriously want to do a round table on "how writing groups can support their neurodivergent members". If this sounds like a panel you'd like to be on. Reach out.
I just had a very rough experience and want to prevent it from happening to someone else.

It might not be much help but it certainly never hurts to be likeable.
Serious question
In your estimation, what % of success (or breaking in) comes down to not being a dickhead to people?

While you should always assume that a turtle will bite while handling them, some species are much less likely to try than others. #WoodTurtles usually do not bite, but every now and then...

Have you ever wanted to visually compare the size of your favorite extinct animals? Now you can, as I'm launching an interactive size comparison tool on my website. Give it a try and let me know what you think: www.skeletaldrawing.com/compare/

DID YOU KNOW that even if you’re not positive if you’ve already ordered one of these, you can just order another? What’s the worst that can happen? You have an extra set of snail facts to give a friend or loved one?
You’re on Bluesky; you’re already the type to give people snail facts. No down side

Alternatively, if you don’t like donating to things, you can pick up this year’s snail facts advent calendar for you and/or some of the kids in your life at squidfacts.net

Did he try to meme a thing? Because I STG I’ve heard something like "growing a hot dog plant" before in a cartoon on "saturday morning tv" many many years ago. Anyone born and a still kid or teen in the years between 1979 – 1999 remember what the heck that cartoon was? (It might have been a re-run.)

Whenever you're feeling overwhelmed and bothered by people, you can just hold up your frog to them. I mean, it beats telling people to talk to your hand. 😂 💚
