It’s fat bear week, but actually I’m fighting for a rabbit’s life by trying to fatten him up after disease, while not making his bun wife obese 😬 1642 gr #fatbearweek #bunnies

This book from Henrietta Knight is really mostly for insiders of British horse racing but since it is cut up into easy slices it was in fact enjoyable to read. Would only recommend to the biggest racing nerds though #horseracing #booksky #horse #thoroughbred

Did you know that we had nicknamed a special 🦕in honor of Dolly Parton? "Dolly" is the first dino with a respiratory infection. And "Dolly" is also a new genus. Teaser image: I often use pieces of art as human scale bars, but I could think of nothing more fitting than Dolly with "Dolly."

🐋 While I'm working on the website, I stumbled upon this painting I created a while back. It's called *40 Whales Left* : The North Pacific right whale (Eubalaena japonica) has a population that summers in the Bering Sea, and it has less than 40 whales left. It's on www.inprnt.com/gallery/kness/

40 whales left - a painting of what exists

This is a great book about how the horse shaped our culture and had a huge influence on us that can still be felt today. It’s less about the horse as an animal than how we used the horse over the years. A very interesting read 🦄🐎🐴🏇 #horse #booksky

I have only one casting complaint and it is that the puppy doesn’t look at all like the old dog 😭

Annik Gmel, PhD @titannik.bsky.social · 17/07/2026

I have just watched the #odyssey and it was really great 🤩 BUT… the dog… guys, why can you not pick a puppy and an adult from the same breed? There is no way this is the same dog and it bothers me soooo much. You should have a guy to do animal castings

Also try to make the triceps work they are antagonists and it could help a bit. For example by pushing a water bottle or heavier in an overhead press. My triceps often hurt because they are overtrained so I had to start training biceps. Maybe it helps. Feel better soon 🍀

Dammit Tasmanian devils are some of my favourite animals because of this mental image now I feel I cheated myself 😂

Annik Gmel, PhD @titannik.bsky.social · 24/06/2026

I thought they exploded on their own with fermentation? I have the distinct memory of a guide saying Tasmanian devils would live inside the carcass until it blew up and I always pictured them flying around through the air

Also for the modern reader the relationship with his protégée/sex slave is highly problematic but it is an old book and these things were acceptable back then. Also there were two incest couples one of which didn’t happen because lesbian escape plan and a side dish of alley murder :) Read it !

HOWEVER I do have some beef with monsieur Dumas because I really believe that the person with the most responsibility for the initial hardship of Edmond Danté got off way too lightly in comparison to the others. That’s just me being mad at a guy dead for a while now.

Annik Gmel, PhD @titannik.bsky.social · 23/06/2026

What a masterpiece! The style, the story, the subject of vengeance, love, redemption, rags to riches, shawshank redemption. It’s a classic, but so easy to read it could have been written today. No character or storyline is superfluous. Also big up for the very obviously lesbian couple. #booksky

Also ivermectin resistance is increasing because we are not deworming correctly (at least it’s a problem in horses in Switzerland so I think it is of concern everywhere but possibly not talked about that much). Resistance to antiparasite medicine is probably as dire as antibiotics but less known

I enjoy reading mostly for the characters but I know that other people are in it for other things as well. Some villains are quite likeable, and you don’t have to recognise yourself in them to like them, but when I hate every single one of the characters I know I will not enjoy the book.

I have heard the two first books and they do not work for me. The fandom is very present but there is some resistance 😂 if you’re not into it feel free to DNF
