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".

It's October 5th & I've already lost the "How Long Can I Avoid Seeing Boston Ballet's Horrible Nutcracker Bear" game.

How I loathe that bear...

Huh. Today in "always look up the etymology because sometimes you're just repeating a myth but sometimes it's weirder and more incredible than you could have possibly imagined"

www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/c...
Screenshot of Merriam Webster etymology note for cockamamie: By the look and sound of it, cockamamie (also spelled "cockamamy") could have something to do with a rooster and the outrageous sound it makes. But in fact, cockamamie is believed to be an altered form of the term decalcomania, which refers to the process, invented in the mid-19th century, of transferring pictures and designs from specially prepared paper to surfaces such as glass or porcelain. (The word referring to the picture or design itself, decal, is a shortening of decalcomania.) The word decalcomania comes from French, with décalcomanie combining the verb décalquer, meaning "to trace" or "to transfer by tracing," and -manie, meaning "-mania." Starting in the 1930s, painted strips of paper with images capable of being transferred to the skin were called decals or—in children's slang—cockamamies. Those familiar with today's temporary tattoos will understand quickly that these were regarded by many as silly novelties, lending the word cockamamie the necessary leeway for application to anything ridiculous.

Publicly lead a song today *in front of the woman who brought it over to the US originally.*

Real glad I only learned I was doing that AFTER I'd done it.

Ngl got jumpscared by Colbert's beard at the Emmys tonight - not because it looks bad (it doesn't) but because with it he looks EERILY SIMILAR to my dad.

Not identical, but close enough that I had to do a double take the first time he was on screen.

Without it they do not look like. Wtf. Sorcery.

ITS THE FUCKING MUPPET SHOW

YOU LITERALLY DID THE FORMULA, AGAIN, AND EVERYONE LOVED IT

YOU DONT NEED TO REINVENT THE WHEEL, PEOPLE WANT THE MUPPETS
discussingfilm.net DiscussingFilm @discussingfilm.net · 25d
There are currently no active conversations for a full ‘MUPPET SHOW’ series revival.

Disney, The Muppets Studio and Point Grey Pictures have had difficulties with deciding on a premise for the series that they can all agree on.

The image is of a four panel comic. In the first panel we see a dragon sitting on a pile of treasure. A speech bubble pointing off panel reads, “Dragon, why do you have all this treasure?” In the second panel we zoom in on the dragons face. He simply says “shiny”. In the third panel we pan to the left and see that there is a crow standing next to the dragon on the treasure. In the fourth panel we zoom in on the crows face. He says “hell yeah”.

Things that aren't great: fire alarm going off at 3am

Things that are even less great: re-entering the building to see police on a different floor than the one the smoke smell & firefighters were on and hearing them say "definitely blood on the floor"

😬

(Neither was on my floor though)

The asshole administration is planning to remove the mining buffer around Chaco Canyon in New Mexico. This is being done without tribal or expert input and the public comment time is incredibly, and cowardly short. Please comment to help try and save Chaco.

It’s worth noting that Taco Bell identified the source before the FDA did, and promptly pulled it from their stores. The FDA didn’t even name the source until Taylor Farms outed themselves, and hasn’t issued a recall. Basically, Taco Bell is now a more reliable authority than the FDA.

3-panel comic. (1) PERSON 1 behind podium on stage: We all hate springing forward. But we love falling back. (2) [Audience pictured listening] PERSON 1: Therefore, we are abolishing the *spring* time change *only*. We’ll gain an hour every year, but never lose one. (3) PERSON OFF-PANEL: Won’t that cause the clocks to spiral out of sync with the sun? PERSON 1 holding up a fist: *Then we will meet the chaos clear-eyed and well-rested!*

Very rarely do real people feature in my dreams...

...which is how I know I'm being oversaturated by movie ads right now 'cause last night's dream was a spy joint starring Tom Holland. Like, straight up starring him as a not-Tom-himself character who I recognized in the dream as being played BY Tom
