The first person to invent tanning leather: so you peel the skin off then soak it in old urine and it's own brains. After that you rub it down a lot with oil. "Is everything ok at home?"

The book I'm currently reading is modern fantasy and the lack of realism has me losing my mind. She uses Google translate on an ancient Latin demon summoning ritual. THAT'S NOT HOW ONLINE TRANSLATORS WORK. IT SHOULD COME OUT LIKE A BOOK WENT THROUGH A WOODCHIPPER.

Foxes In Love @foxes-in-love.bsky.social · 22/04/2026
A comic of two foxes, one of whom is blue, the other is green. In this one, Blue and Green are cuddled up together, with Green deep in thought and Blue sound asleep.
Green, thinking: I want to kiss your neck and nibble your ears and touch your butt and fluff your tail, and... I want to touch you everywhere at the same time. My body is inefficient.

As Green speaks out nonchalantly, Blue opens one eye, deeply baffled by what he hears.
Green: You make me wish I had tentacles.

"That creepy guy is here again," my boss hissed. I looked to the pinball machine in corner. A lanky man in overalls and a soft hat was playing. "You're making a fortune from the old coins he's using. But I'll have a word." Later, I told my boss the guy worked as a ferryman. Why'd he get so pale?

Woodcut vignette showing a monk standing by the shore of a strait or an inlet. His left hand is pressing a book to his chest, while his right hand makes a sign of blessing. Several snakes are seen fleeing into the water and to the other shore.

"Lawyers from the Government of Alberta argued there was no evidence of foreign interference in the process to date. ...the public record suggests strongly that there has been." Leaving aside the question of state capacity, this sounds like more of an issue of political will than anything else.

The Manuscript of the Week is RIA MS C iii 1, the Annals of Connacht. This manuscript records episodes in the history of Gaelic Ireland from AD 1224-1544, with one later entry (in different ink) for the year 1562. There are short gaps in the text where it appears that a pair of leaves has been lost.
