She/Her, 30-something that overthinks it. Learning 🇰🇷🇹🇼. I like all things biology, weird stuff, shapenote, and humanism. A darn yellow composite Taiwanese American.

But also! The illustration of sequential accumulation of mutations, carcinogenic bacterial toxins, and even the kinda silly t-shirt metaphor for the how (most of the time) the mutated cell can't evade the immune system forever is so cool!!

On the cuter side of weirdos, there is the tawny frogmouth, which really ought to be called the muppet bird.

For anyone wondering, some possible dog names have survived from cuneiform sources.

On tiny dog figurines found buried under a palace in Nineveh, Iraq are inscriptions that seem to be names.

Also, I 💯 aspire to be that much of a crotchety buzzkill who knows exactly how I enjoy my life one day.

The illustration of being constantly ignored by the state despite being loud, written off for being old and female and heavily implied to be disabled also feels particularly salient now. The transformation into a revenge novel was really enjoyable and well-foreshadowed without being overly obvious.
