If so, do the dancing animated intermission snacks they used to show at old movies belong to the same subspecies?
Someone said the Kool Aid man is a “small Kaiju” which I agree with.

Is Ronald McDonald a cryptid?

I see that you are considing a Senate run. What specific things do you plan to do to fight against the lawless overreach and bald authoritarianism of the current regime? Also, you're from Indiana but are considering a Senate run in Michigan. So, Bears, Packers, or Lions?

Interviewer: Can you explain this gap in your resume?

Literary critic: The "gap", or occlusion, if you will, the liminal and fleeting spectre that returns to haunt us in the shape of the Real, that absent presence that animates our flickering awareness of the unreachable and unknowable Other

Thank you!

It's notoriously difficult to stuff an entire witch into one small container.

Decorations: ‘… Our Mistletow bush was quite “a golden bough” decorated with oranges + coloured ribbons + it hung till shrove Tuesday' (FLS Archives; D.Townshend, 1897)

Silvered bottle @pittriversmuseum.bsky.social: said to contain a witch. But a curator thinks it’s a 19thC Christmas bauble.
I love the reindeer on the swing, looking so pleased to be roasting on an open fire.
Smack those shrubs, boys! He's gotta be under one of those leaves! Enh, or let's just get our steps in.
Best creative student response to an assignment possibly ever: the encounter between Sir Gawain and Sir Bertilak written as contemporary erotic fan fiction.
Oh, who will pity the poor lonely X posters, left to froth all by themselves. The show mostly treated Worf like a violent goofball. Dr. Pulaski (underrated character!) was the only one who just treated him like a person. The tea ceremony scene was lovely. OTOH Worf and Troi were a terrible couple.

But the harsh wit, yeah. Nobody could carve a person down to size like a Dublin bus driver.
I lived in Dublin in the '80s, and used to drink at McDaid's. It was a rough place back then. Regulars loved to point out the exact stool where Brendan Behan drank himself to death, and elaborate on the length and duration of his barfing.
I'd love to attend! I have questions! Like, does the nephilism come through father or the mother? If the father, have the other offspring inherited it? I also wonder while considering them (which I would rather not do at all) if the genetic markers for nephilism can mutate into demonic forms.
Teaching Joyce to first-years for the first time in forever, to a generation that had never heard of him before now. They are managing though! From The New Yorker, Sept 25th, 1989. Not sure of the artist.

block lists from people whose judgement u trust
I made a blocklist for some of the new showing up to troll anti trans folks. No oxygen for these schmoes! bsky.app/profile/did:...
Intro English Lit final project assignment: analyze something canonical we didn't discuss in class. The choices are interesting! Several Donne fans. Cowper's "Castaway" as a fan favorite though? Yikes. One of them picked The Waste Land, but wasn't sure if it was canonical. Now I feel very very old.
Random biological fact: Sheep have rectangular eye pupils and have better peripheral vision than humans. Huh. I'm still here. Wonder what this yutz is beefing about?
Aww, too bad. I was making up a whole Irish Carmilla backstory too, involving old Norman families (the ones who have a bean sí), and a whole specious folkloric connection between vampires and banshees. In any case, how exciting! I will subscribe!
