11 days until the vernal equinox
Back when I was in high school, I found some bones half-buried. Unfortunately, the skull wasn't there. If it was, I probably wouldn't have to ask about them. Jen gave me a Bones 101 primer, that is to say, bones are typically found inside the body and are made from calcium, and told me that maybe if she knew the sizes and had some pictures instead of just drawings, she might be able to tell me. Lisa told me that most lumbar vertebrae have those fin things called transverse processes, and those transverse processes are good-sized on most animals.

I think if they ever do a second Lego Batman movie, Batman and Mr. Freeze should have an argument about the K-T extinction.

I found out only that the gumbo was pure Malaysian-style "throw everything in the spice cabinet and refrigerator in some roux" and the important things to know is "make roux, because that's the base of the soup" and "bay leaves, cumin, turmeric, and a bunch of other things." It looked like shrimp and rice and andouille sausage, although I see no reason I can't use chorizo like in that jambalaya I had.

In my absence, we got and released a loon. We got a barred owl who was hit by a car. We have a couple of swans, geese, hawks, and a modo. A typical day, in other words. Someone brought a degu, not to be confused with a tegu.

Julia says we have a bazillion knives, two spoons, and no forks. So she settled on eating her food with a spoon.
Laura thought she was putting cool whip on a lasagna roll.

Tilly and Cleo were hanging out in Quiet Baby. She's not going to eat what I want her to, that is, a dried banana that was on the table; she wanted the pretzels I was eating. Too bad she can't get through glass.

TJ wants to make prison wine because we got some bread along with two cakes for us. Someone described the taste as this: Brush your teeth and down a glass of orange juice. It tastes the way that would coming back up.

Human moderators result in asymmetrical enforcement. People interpret things differently. We need peer review. Something gets flagged, then the system asks a random sampling of 100,000 peers to weigh in on it. Removes, deranks, censors, based on active community
This is how we ended up with Democratic Underground and their shitty-ass jury system, Tim.

My fight against the Dark Magus Sisters in FFX was truly one for the ages.
1. They're not always going to use Delta Attack as their first move, so you can't have just any aeon tank it.
2. My Magus Sisters decided they didn't want to use Delta Attack.
3. Your first step is to deal with Cindy. Obviously. I mostly used Quick Hit but threw an Oblivion at them for good measure. I would have used Delta Attack but..
4. Oh, apparently Sandy's regular attack can shatter characters. So no more Yuna. Good thing Cindy was gone by that time.
5. Thankfully every attack kills you in one hit and auto-phoenix brings you back with enough HP to survive Mega-Graviton. So it really is just trading blows back and forth.
6. And once Mindy's alone, all it takes is a few attack reels.

burning question: Who could have possibly guessed that the money only used by criminals for crime would be plagued by crime?
