I love love love this description of Cantus Libres: Beautiful music for beautiful people with tragic tendencies.

The exploratory surgery from last week didn't go so well; according to Jacob, we found bits of metal in there but couldn't find much. In any case, the swan is no longer living.

I told Jess and Ian my revelation from last week, which is as follows: Drow depicts herself as pregnant and squatting in an anatomically possible but painful way, and then as a happy family posing in an anatomically impossible way. I'm not going to try to describe the second one to you. However, she said that her youngest was 7 years old. Honestly, that makes Blueyes and Family Moment really unsettling. You know what, I'll let Bob Belcher explain things.
I had a second revelation afterwards, which I did not share, but I'll share it with you: If you have a miscarriage or a stillborn, and you're not in jail, or in Hell, or in Hell jail, that means you have benefited from feminism in some way.

In any case, Jess imagines that stillborns amongst other mammals get eaten. After all, the mother will eat the placenta afterwards and raptors will feed dead hatchlings to live ones because hey, proteins, and also not wanting to let predators know there are babies.

We have a new raccoon who more than likely has distemper and a new downy woodpecker and a goose with ataxia that may be indicative of lead poisoning or a middle ear infection or trauma.

Big brown bats aren't as susceptible to white nose as the little brown bat (which was once the most common bat in the northeast) because they don't winter in hibernatoriums, they winter in trees. Enjoy West Nile and Triple E and if climate change and the anti-vaccination types have their way, people further south can enjoy malaria, yellow fever, and dengue fever. The bad kind of dengue fever, not the band.

You can use tegaderm to splint their phalanges.

Spyro ate an earwig. It was sitting on Leopold, so I tried giving it to him; Leopold didn't care. I tried giving it to Skinky; Skinky didn't care. I gave it to Spyro; Spyro stared at it for a second and then gobbled it up.

We're talking about pricking your thumb with epi-pens, and if you're in a place without hospitals like Oklahoma or anywhere in Turkmenistan outside Ashgabat back when Niyazov was in power because "they can just come to the capital," it will get necrotic and you'll be missing a thumb.

Ralphie (a Holland lop) mounted the cat and a girl's arm, so he got neutered.

A woman in a hello kitty hat brought her pet baby Brazilian rainbow boa to get medicated, which are really cool looking, and when they grow up, they have this really cool iridescence to them.

Zambezi, an African spurred tortoise, was boarding. His spurs were painted like candy corn for halloween; his owners paint his spurs in colors for every holiday.
Jacob and Jess agree: Thanksgiving is brown and orange.

burning question: Can the mind vomit?
