Also it's worth mentioning that certain Apple ear buds also function as remarkably effective hearing aids. It's the Air Pod Pro 2 and 3 lines: support.apple.com/en-us/120992 Normally I dislike mentioning a company like this, but it can be a bit more affordable for some than hearing aids (for now).

Did they say why? I live and swear by high decibel blocking foam earplugs even at concerts and stuff, it SEEMS excessive but my hearing is still p good. I don't like the single use application, but all the phlange ones have had lawsuits against them and I don't trust them anymore on principle.

I think two of these are moths, too! very lovely winged friends

ooh external like fish fertilization? and yeah I totally forgot about the corkscrew situation sorry, I don't really know much besides some slight animal husbandry knowledge exclusively in layman's terms and not an academic setting, kind of fun to think about!

Well, if they were feathered and close to modern day birds, would it not be something like a cloacal kiss? to me that makes the most immediate sense. (attached is a diagramme of it, I guess in your pic t-rexes are closest to it)

Anyway, now is as good as time as any to link Panic Volkushka’s “Couples Therapy.” Y’know, in case you’re in the mood for an alternative grown-up Bobby Hill.

Honestly, THE best fan comic I’ve ever read.

my fave pics are the last two, you sitting next to each other is so so cute and the last one you look like a queen being regaled. I'm so glad I got to say "congratulations!" in person, even if it was a bit brief. kudos to the photographer too, really captured you both so well 💖

the monkey's paw curls: I go into anaphylaxis if I ingest peanut butter. I do conversely have a nice little "deathday menu" planned if I ever get so infirm I can't really live life on my terms anymore though.

there's actually a few locations in the ATL area too, they're great!! also, man audioslave (by audioslave) is such a good album, I couldn't help but recognise the cover, it's very iconic

that's awesome honestly, I hope it emboldens more artists to own their masters and negotiate for that when signing a contract. is it rude to say it's more than just herself she's done this for here? it's a living proof of concept that you CAN own your work for all artists!!

many merely capture the bird on film, but here, you've captured the spirit, the fluttering and free energy of what it is to have a moment of repose in a busy day of flight

note: he is a real animal I swear, i just call them all co-workers because we go out to entertain, teach, inform etc. The food and board is sort of payment, right? what good would a funny lil guy have for the currency of hominids, anyhow,

one of my co-workers is a call duck variant of mallard! everyone is always surprised when he catches the sun, the same with our other seemingly all black male duck, when the light catches him, his plumes take on this lovely violet and green iridescence! birds are so cool. I'll remember pics soon!

i can't help but support them, the goofy positive bright spots of a bleak timeline

ooh gotcha, I think I misunderstood

... It's important to remember, and even expect, that the values of a company can change with shareholder influence and risk of usurpation at any time. Competition is good, absolutely, but any one company having most of the users on all of the platforms is alarming, not reassuring at this point.

Society has seemingly forgotten that google once "[did] no evil." You may say, "but this isn't about google!" it is! Google seemed to advocate for doing right, of course we use its browser and email and searches and even YouTube, sure. I will say, I like bsky's dedication to open source, but...

almost, I think you need a II
and maybe a II with a I_
