Screen capture of the temporary annual permit ... where the bar code does not appear. But it won't be replaced!

Go home, SaskParks. You're drunk

A picture that shows the partial face of the poster, and the faces of two boy cats who just turned five.

Why I am still in bed.

The only doctor they have an appointment with is me and my lap. They just feel for MB.

Ok Carney. You’ve got your majority. You can be a liberal now.

My cats express solidarity with MB.

I had plans!

Maybe they’re just Apollo re-enactors.

Space-SCA?

You know that the astronaut seated at the back of the capsule is already standing up in the aisle.

From the last time

A short while ago I had a surgery consult at the WCVM for one of my boy cats.

I kept correcting the resident when he would say ‘CT scan’ instead of ‘cat scan’.

The cat is fine, but his brother is an asshole.

I take a 5 minute break from exam writing and this happens.

Grin. Bring your puppy when you do.

Your puppy literally subscribes to my OnlyFur account. Settle down.

I have a PARASOCIAL relationship with your puppy!

Will she retrieve ducks?

There’s always a risk when you swap the skis for wheels on the luggage.

A tuxedo cat. In Paris.

I found Henri, le chat noir.

Astronauts are just like us.

Does Maggie point, flush or retrieve?

I still feel called out! And for penance, I will get a bird dog.

Or should I have said ‘settle down!’

I can rely on you to tell me off in the kindest way ;)

Also, happy birthday!

My brain got stuck in a completely different movie.

Study finds academics’ jokes at conferences mostly fall flat A recently published study explored academics’ attempts at humour during research conferences. The study—based on 531 talks at 14 biology conferences—found that 58% of all talks included at least one attempt at humour. However, 66% of attempts were determined to have low effectiveness as they were met with reactions such as “polite chuckles.” The study authors noted that the mild reactions may have stemmed from the social dynamics and environment of conferences, as well as the fact that many jokes were made during glitches or technical issues. The study authors noted that humour is a skill worth developing for scientists, as well-delivered humour “can turn a forgettable talk into one people actually remember—and perhaps even enjoy.”

I feel attacked.

The smaller/older Tacoma (with the V6) would meet my use case (tow 3500#, forestry road capable and can haul a moose) ... and be more fun to drive.

I drive the bigger taco because I don't have an alternative.

Even as recharge stations proliferate and battery technologies improve, certain use cases - such as machinery/vehicles in agriculture and in wilderness / remote locations - can’t just switch to electric.

The prevalence of fossil fuels in our economy is not an accident - nor is it the result of political malevolence.

Gasoline and diesel combine a high energy density with easy handling and transport (as a liquid) - which allow extended and remote use, and quick ‘recharging’.

Sound up!
