a mortal coldness

yamamanamaThe election was a nice fuck you to people like Drow and Daisy Dead Head with Question 3, a marginal victory in Congress and a long-term victory in Florida, assuming the Republicans don't try to take it from us.
This is the populists' and far right's Moscow.
It was so cold that most of the reptiles were moved to warmer rooms to spend the winter on the first day in a while someone came in to get a tour (actually, there were people taking their bunny to get neutered and then some people came in just to look around) and there were no cookies. Let me tell you how fucked up the climate is: it rained in the Atacama. And I wanted to convince Donald Trump there was oil there.
This is a totally different juvenile bald eagle with some sort of sepsis and bacterial infection but no rodenticide or lead toxicity (although I think someone said later that he has rodenticide poisoning, although I haven't been there for 14 days). I think what they mean by “we’ve never treated a bald eagle in our 35 years of veterinary care,” they mean “the last bald eagle came in too messed up to treat” or maybe “that paradox effect hit us” because that one thing hasn’t been cleared up.
We have a saw-whet owl. Unfortunately, this is the picture they went with. I can't tell if one of his eyes is messed up or it's just the lighting.
We have a black scoter who got away from Jess.
We got a new hooded merganser today. Her number is 18-1778. She had some fishing wire around her head; she looks okay but we are looking at her to make sure.
We release some geese, a swan, and the barred owl.
We found out just why wombat poop is cube-shaped and it's because they have stretchy, ridged colons.
Wombats stack that poop as a territory marker to their fellow wombats.
Blue jays have been heard mimicking raptors.
Michael found a kitchen utensil that looked like either an African throwing knife or a tool for mountain climbing.
He thinks that Gamingforce is a money-laundering scheme at this point.
I heard a guy play flamenco guitar and included a medley of Paul Dukas’ L’apprenti sorcier and Charles Gounod’s Marche funèbre d’une marionnette and his take on Paint it Black, in which he said he once thought the key to a long life was clean living and a healthy diet but the Rolling Stones prove him wrong and a song that broke a guitar string and forced him to improvise.
burning question: why the fuck would anyone want 3.66 gigs of Moon Man Moon Man Can’t You See? Unless it’s flac or video or something. That’s a bit more understandable, although quite frankly, even one Moon Man song is more than enough Moon Man. Unless Moon Man was a Mega Man boss. This is that moment where I confess I have no idea how much music 3.66 gigs of flac is. 3.66 gigs of mp3 is at least 36 hours. I don’t know, the largest band in my library is about 2.07 gigs and 21:38. Or it could be videos, which is still too much Moon Man. I said I would download this out of morbid curiosity but Mega Upload says that Safari has an insufficient buffer to decrypt data in this browser, which means it’s basically forcing me to use Mega’s dumb probably spyware and adware and bitcoin mining infested desktop app and I trust that less than I trust Ashley. The weird thing is that it says you can use Chrome as an alternative and people have said that Chrome also has an insufficient buffer to decrypt data. Quite frankly, I don't care that much.
