#Caturday brings us two new kittens (with only collars to tell them apart: Magpie (pink collar) and Raven (blue collar)! We love them already

Two juvenile cats, both completely black, look up at the camera with intense gold eyes. They are probably hungry. On the left a female cat lies on a dining chair and has a pink collar. On the right, a male cat sits upright with a blue collar on.

There were many species that had pretty extreme spines, presumably for protection or sexual display.

Absolutely there are human generated images of endocasts. I generated a number of (inner ear) endocasts. Here are a number of marsupial brain endocasts created from digital sectioning of CT skulls. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

My God. He's put those gold frou-frous on the OUTSIDE of the oval office too.

The outside of the White House Oval office. White exterior walls have a white pediment (?) over the outer office door, and there are gold embellished medallions, which are normally on the inside of buildings, attached to the pediment. There is also a temporary mockup of a gold sign reading "The Oval Office" next to the door.

Like mother, like "son"

Photo of aged woman with wrinkles, huge earrings, blond/white hair with a hair up do much larger than is typical today. She sits in a purple/gold overwrought chair with a white table lamp beside her. She seems to be wearing a plaid jacket with a white blouse bearing a self-bow.

LBJ's explanation of racism:

A quote from LBJ in image form. The quote: "If you can convince the lowest white man he's better than the best colored man, he won't know you're picking his pocket. Hell, give him someone to look down on and he'll empty his pockets for you."

Boris (very short, pudgy man with paltry mustache and vague eastern European accent dressed in vacation clothes walks in front of Natasha (very tall, dark haired, woman in sunglasses and huge hat, along with old time cigarette holder and very large bag). The relevance is similarities with Natasha and Melania.

JFK Jr's "mitochondria challenged" is a way to say they're fat. You can't diagnose mitochondria challenge by sight, and almost not by biochemistry. Kennedy doesn't know shit about that.

How in the world can Jr. spot Mitochondrial Challenged when it's so difficult to analyze medically. What he's saying is the child's mitochondrial (energy burning) system is challenged (can't burn enough energy so it gets stored) i.e. the kid is fat:

Hopefully you can answer this question for me: I looked up images of the larvae after seeing your great photos, and noticed that the larvae look like they have multiple eyes on a bump. What is with that?

Enlargement of the head of an owlfly larva. It shows a brownish-yellow, spiny creature. Its head has spread jaws that look like pincers, and eye(s?) that look like numerous black spots on yellow bumps

How is it jr can eyeball “mitochondrial challenges” when peer reviewed research hasn’t got it down. What he’s really saying is “fat kids” Several paragraphs listing the difficulties of understanding mitochondrial diseases:
