Surprised Eel Historian, PhD @greenleejw.bsky.social · 13/10/2026
It's Tuesday. You need some eels in your life, right? And some otters? Here you go! A scene of otters & eels, from an early 15th C. copy of Gaston Phoebus's Livre de la chasse. Eel blood is toxic to mammals, but otters don't care. They love them some eels. Can you blame them? 🗃️🧪
A medieval painting of otters playing in a pool, chasing and catching eels and other fish. There are 10 adult otters, and what look to be 2 younger otters in a den at the base of a tree. They are all doing serious otter things: playing, eating, cavorting, eating, gamboling, eating, swimming, and eating. They are having a good time. For now.

It can't last, though. This pond seems way too small to support all of these otters, and the painting has a border around it. They can't leave, and soon they will turn on each other in a bloodbath that will make the Donner Party look like a tea time at the Rotary Club. If you check back with these otters in two weeks, I suspect you'll find only carnage.

That, though, is a problem for Future Otters. Today's otters are carefree, with spotless souls.

Why on earth does this BBC piece on Burnham telling an interviewer the UK security services confirmed Russian interference in the Brexit referendum require a response from a pro Brexit pressure group? It's literally our Prime Minister telling us about election security. It's nothing to do with them.
The prime minister told The Rest is Politics podcast that upon arriving in No 10, he had asked about possible Russian interference in the 2016 vote, adding: "I've had the clear answer that, yes, there was."

"I think we've been too much on the back foot on that actually and we haven't informed people sufficiently about the extent to which people are seeking to disrupt the political process from overseas," he added.

Burnham did not provide further details about the type or extent of Moscow's activity during the Brexit referendum.

Britain Unbound, a pro-Brexit campaign group, said Burnham's comments were "another crude attempt to undermine the legitimacy of the decision that the British people made in 2016".

It said that foreign interference in UK elections was "obviously unacceptable" but added: "There is no good reason to believe that Russian intervention influenced the outcome of the referendum in 2016.

'Don't Look Now' is on BBC2 at 22.45, tonight, which means I can swerve another day of making a fresh Hallowmeme.
This alt-text contains a +++SPOILER+++ for the movie, so if you haven't seen it, now is the time to stop reading. It's the 4 panel Drake meme, but Drake has been swapped for Donald Sutherland in "Don't Look Now". The top left panel shows a smiling Donald pointing at the image of his daughter, wearing her red jacket and holding a pretty mad looking toy, in the top right panel. The bottom left panel shows a distraught Donald holding his hands up to avoid getting slashed by the diminutive serial killer wearing a hooded red duffel coat and holding onto a vicious looking knife in the bottom right panel.
