It's Friday and my new song "Create an Oasis" is streaming everywhere. It's about bugs, Fallout: New Vegas, and the first person you date after the worst breakup of your life. I hope you all enjoy!!

Gotta hand it to team cherry. after 7 years of diligent development they managed to nail exactly what everyone wanted to see after Hollow Knight - "what if the platforming was way worse" and "what if boss fights give you no rewards at all"

My favorite fact about ctenophores is that they evolved their nervous system completely independently of other animals. They don't have serotonin or dopamine receptors at all and use L-glutamate as their main neurotransmitter

New data suggest the Guadalupe fur seal have expanded their range beyond Guadalupe Island due to population growth. They're being sighted in California waters in record numbers and the population is projected to grow about 9% a year going forward 🦑🧪

everywhere we go in Ireland has a town center that's totally pedestrian only. not a car in sight, it's so pleasant to walk around even when it's crowded. the American mind cannot comprehend this

I never understand complaining about small talk until I hear someone who's actually off the deep end with it. these people behind me on the bus are just breathlessly describing every meal they ate over the past week to each other. dreadful stuff

some people get really pissed off if you suggest that someone who's been in the country for years and hasn't committed any crimes probably shouldn't be hunted down and deported

This flapjack octopus, Opisthoteuthis sp. — a genus of cirrate octopuses found throughout the global Ocean — uses cirri running up & down their arms like fingers, to forage around in the fluffy sediment for small worms, crustaceans, and other invertebrates. #SouthSandwichIslands, 2025, 902 m

"So nice to not have to talk to a driver!"did you know your soul is shrinking to the size of a grain of sand dying slowly in the vacuum of your Earthly body and the price you will pay for letting your ego run amok is many painful samsaric cycles that will make you understand the beauty of small talk

inspired by the Rehearsal I'm trying to solve some air travel issues of my own. the plan? employ the screaming toddlers to find the lost AirPods. it'll give them a sense of purpose and their tiny bodies can maneuver through the seats with ease

my roommate ordered a $25 tote bag from Finland and the UPS dude told him to pay $90 in "import fees" with a physical check or they wouldn't hand it over. is this how tariffs are supposed to work? did we put a 300% tariff on Finnish bags? what's going on here lol

I just learned that Sir Francis Drake never actually sailed the Drake Passage. he didn't discover it either, just made them name it after him because he was famous. feel like that's something current Drake would do too

i wish this would happen of course, but the Dems are too addicted to poll watching and optimizing for public opinion, they'd never try to drive the conversation like this. firing federal workers is not unpopular and liberals have already cosigned the "Waste, fraud and abuse" line
