Well, squiders, yesterday morning, the other butterfly hatched. And it did exactly what you would expect it to–it climbed all the way out of its cocoon, hung there with its wings nice and straight until they dried out, and has
What Happened to June?
Other than giving everybody whiplash and churning out new things every three seconds. I mean, we’re a week out from the end of the month, and I’m not even sure what I’ve done for the past few weeks. Not writing,
Help! There’s Too Much Free Content!
Oh, hey, first of all, I remembered another Eurovision song that stood out to me. It’s Feker Libi by Eden Alene, representing Israel. (Yes, Israel is allowed to participate in Eurovision despite not being in Europe. And so is Australia
