In the old days before the invention of rubber, condoms were made of wood. That’s why an erection is sometimes called a “woody”. That’s not really true. I just made it up. But you believed it, didn’tcha? 😃

I just watched Netflix’s movie, “A House of Dynamite”. It has the worst ending I’ve ever seen in a movie. The absolute worst! So bad I’ll probably never watch another Kathryn Bigelow movie ever again. I’m tempted to spoil it right here, just to save you the trouble of watching it, but I won’t.

I’ve heard that in the last moments of an evil person’s life, they grow a conscience and remember and regret all the misery they’ve caused. That’s allegedly what hell is: the profound regret from recognizing that he’s a terrible person but it’s too late to do anything about it. I hope he suffers.

I agree that wild snakes should be left in the wild. Breeders actually mitigate the collecting of wild snakes by offering the alternative of captive bred animals. I’d argue that if you’re going to have a pet snake, it’s far better to buy from a breeder than to catch one. But yes, adopt if you can.

Hey snake people! I want to upgrade my snakes’ cages and am considering the Vision model 622. Does anyone have experience with that model? They’re housed in smaller Vision cages now, so I’m familiar with and like the brand & style. But I’ve read some ppl. have had probs with bowing. What say you?

I’d have stopped watching long ago if it wasn’t for James Spader. He can make even bad writing (such as Red’s inexplicable devotion to Liz) seem realistic.

I’m binge watching The Blacklist, on S8 now, and I gotta say, with Liz I-deserve-to-know-my-relatives’-deepest-secrets Keen, they wasted a perfectly good actor. We the audience are presumably supposed to like her, despite her reckless entitlement that gets ppl killed, but I just can’t with her.

We’ve discovered that they do acrobatics just for fun. We have one who climbs to the top of a skinny bush branch, whereupon his weight bends the branch til he’s about 6 inches from the ground. He lets go, lands on his back, flips over & runs back up the branch and does it again, over & over. 😃

We watched one stash a peanut in an ashtray on our patio table. He even did that thing where they pat the (in this case imaginary) dirt down to cover it. 🤣 The next day, the peanut was gone.

Hoke @hoaxter61.bsky.social · 17/02/2026

I’m sure it would, but the fun is in the trying. 😉 Another cool squirrel fact: Their brains grow 30% larger in autumn so they can make a mental map of their hidden stashes of winter food. Pretty cool!

Just finished watching the series. I think Carol Rainey (Bud’s wife) is full of crap. When you’re a bitter ex religious fundie as she is, it’s probably tempting to think everyone’s a deluded liar, and all evidence to the contrary is just “part of the hoax”. Sad & pathetic.

Hoke @hoaxter61.bsky.social · 07/02/2026

I hate professional debunkers. They’re sad, pathetic people. Just like religious zealots, they think people with beliefs different from theirs are inferior, and just like religious missionaries, they spend their lives preaching and won’t be satisfied until everyone believes what they believe. Gross.

The “Big Bang” theory holds that the universe spontaneously arose from nothing. The God theory holds that an entity created the universe. To my mind, both theories are equally ridiculous, and it’s not surprising that the Big Bang theory was originally proposed by a Catholic priest.

Glad to turn you on to one you hadn’t heard yet. 😊 I love it too. I haven’t found a Broken remix that tops Dousk’s though. This one’s still my fave: youtu.be/GASqXSvAMjc?...

Riq Woolen is a habitual taunter and absolutely deserved that penalty. He was taunting earlier in the game, to the point that I was screaming at the TV, “Stop taunting, dumbass! You’re gonna get called for that shit!” Coaches equally at fault for not nipping it in the bud early on. #Seahawks

Thanks Lesley ❤️. It still hurts too much to lie down, so I have to sleep in a chair, meaning I only get naps. Yesterday it finally caught up with me and I slept all day. I’m gonna try hard to take your advice and not do too much. Not easy for me, but I know you’re right. 🫶

Exactly. I didn’t know it was possible to fall that fast. Like, if you allowed yourself to fall backward from a standing position, you’d experience a brief sensation of falling before you hit the ground. With an ice fall, there’s no time for “falling sensation”, just impact.

Hoke @hoaxter61.bsky.social · 18/01/2026

If you’ve never fallen from stepping on ice, you might imagine sliding along, arms cartwheeling, and then falling. It’s not like that at all. Instead, you’re walking, and in a split second, your legs don’t exist, and you hit the ground before you know what happened. It’s instantaneous and brutal.

Thanks Jaq. So far, so good, recovery-wise. I haven’t seen Jimmy on here nor spoken to him in three weeks. I too hope he’s ok and miss his stellar presence.
