The bird on the left hand side is actually a shoebill, a fellow Pelecaniforme.

The trial compared the catnip lotion against 15% DEET, so it’s unknown how it compares against stronger formulas. However this is quite promising and I hope further studies are conducted globally! Catnip, as a member of the mint family, is quite a fast-growing, hardy plant, and could easily replace DEET for both home and commercial products if it continues to prove effective.

Celebrities and politicians are simultaneously the most-watched and poorest-behaved people on the planet tho

Tadpoles.

The ensuing frog plague upon the capital would be a nice little bonus.

Addendum for Japan: Yankee ヤンキー more commonly refers to a (juvenile) delinquent

Denial is pretty high on my personal go-to list, have you tried that yet?

Star Trek? (Specifically the original series movies)

Unenviable.

This literally just happened. How is it already compressed to early-2000s levels of jpg?

the free and open source office suite trusted by millions of users around the world.

Do I use Libre office? Yes. Do I trust it? Absolutely not (in the sense that I don’t think they’re stealing my data, but wow is the user experience a buggy mess)

Jonathan Ross Godammit you made me think I missed a huge news story

Here’s what I assume when I see YouTube/Patreon links:

YouTube link = recommendation for free content

Patreon = self-promotion for paid product

It’s less that Santa is on strike, and more that his sleigh is quagmired in a foot of melted permafrost

Stinky ginky? Nah, yellow fellow.

Like most unnecessarily-gendered things, this thinking falls apart under the slightest hint of logical scrutiny…

That privilege is heavily dependent on your maintaining a strong garlic harvest. The first year that slips (or your basil/oregano perform too well) you’re getting downgraded to nonbinary. Then there’s a three year grace period before you’re sent straight to full-blown woman. So make sure to fertilize your alliums well!

Traditionally it’s been similar to cooking:

Farmer/chef? That’s a man’s work.

Gardener/home cook? That’s a woman’s work.

Fortunately we’ve got shows like the Great British Bake Off and a myriad of popular YouTube gardening and home cooking channels featuring men to help shake this up, but sadly it’s still something that’s seen as gendered by way too many folks. Still, if spicy peppers and cacti (and on the cooking side dishes like pizza) help get insecure men in the door, that’s great. But I’m with TTF: it may not be a strong stereotype, but I’ve also observed it.

You only need to plant sorrel in your garden once. It’s the ultimate volunteer crop. Quite winter-hardy too, and perennial, plus it tastes like lemon. Halfway between an herb and a green.

First glance def had me thinking this was gonna be tampon related
