Weddell seal pups can be curious if you’re sitting next to them quietly. Here, we were collecting a scat sample and the little one leaned a bit closer to see what I was doing.

I have an SE (AKA iPhone 6) and I keep not getting a new model because they are all so much bigger and don’t fit in my tiny hand! I am commiserating.

And I didn’t feel criticized. I literally had not noticed a price increase, probably because I don’t buy pistachios very often. We’re all good.

What boils my blood is when people in other creative areas do it and brag about it.
For example: YouTube creators talking about pirating a novel or game book when they themselves rely ad revenue and Patreon themselves for income. That’s some “crabs in a bucket” shit right there.

Incidentally, theft like this is why there won’t be a second Steelflower trilogy, why the Bannon & Clare series was canceled by the publisher, and why I will never do another collected SquirrelTerror book.
I did a thread a few weeks ago of "authors link your stuff" & one of my author friends who is one emergency away from being homeless had a massive spike in downloads on Anna's Archive from people *who follow me* complaining about how they are poor & should be allowed to steal from other poor people
