Not just you. I can't help but compare with TNG's "Night Terrors", where it was still disturbing & creepy but there was a reason for it. Sure it was a hand-wavy sort of reason, but they gave one. And, REM sleep deprivation is a bad thing in the real world, so they have a grounding in science.
Since you are so fond of robins (& with goodreason!), I thought you'd appreciate the ice cream Finch came up with. 🙂
Someone at the protest was introducing themselves as the "President of Antifa" and handing out these "checks" to pay protestors. 😄
Reposting with alt text. See you this Saturday, 3/28, at Civic Center Park! (And if you aren't in FoCo, find your own local event-- there's something near you!)
Resharing with alt text, because the visually impaired should know this info too. Everyone should participate who can - we need to choose active, committed people who will fight on OUR behalf!
I mean really, it's not in any way titillating to include a diagram like this. Show the organ, this is medical information!
Having not heard of Sjogren's, I did my usual looking it up thing & found this graphic for common symptoms. Where are they saying a ...cactus... can show up now?? 😄
Someone with a sense of humor & a sharpie has been to a nearby gas station...
Apparently they make gelt (chocolate coins) as Bitcoin now, sigh. At least the chocolate was tasty.
I found a pretzel on the floor so, logically, I put it on the cat. She was not impressed.
A challenging knitting day. I noticed I made a major error last night, frogged 3 rows of the all-lace pattern. Amazingly picked up all the stitches without missing a one. Then re-knitting the rows, I discovered my needle is breaking. But! I have a duplicate needle! Lucky.
Pretty waves form clouds tonight. I assume from wind speed differential between top & bottom of the cloud. It looks like patterns you might see on a Greek vase.
I helped some friends get ready for the holidays today. This was by far their best ornament!
The local hospital has a volunteer therapy dog, Ben. Ben is ALL IN on receiving attention & pets from everyone in the waiting room.
CPR mannequins are always a bit disturbing. The babies? 100x more so. In other news, I'm recertified for 2 more years. Feel free to choke on a grape near me!
From a few years ago, the black footed ferrets at the Fort Collins Museum of Discovery.
Tried making kletskoppen today. You can see why the Belgian name means "Belgian lace". When you eat them, you understand the translation of the Dutch: chatterbox (they are loudly crunchy).
