This is delightful which of course it is because it’s Tim Curry dammit but it contains two earth shattering revelations for the Curryverse and they are
1) he was considered for Ian Malcolm in Jurassic Park
2) he read the screenplay for Silence of the Lambs and wanted to be cast as Hannibal Lector

That particular cartooning instruction book was published in the mid-1980’s and blurbed by Charles Schultz. I doubt there’s any explicit depictions of sex in it. Maybe a life drawing archive.org/details/cart...
What books did Alberta schools *actually* pull off the shelves in response to a provincial order? It took a lot of work to find out. We still don't have a complete picture. And some schools are still pulling material.
Free speech advocates say it's ban unmatched in Canadian history. #AbLeg By me.

He’s taking up curling. It’s all about the angles.
Definitely bouba on the left but trending towards kiki at the right.
After 900 years and a galaxy-wide cataclysm, I think we can forgive a typo.
“You people have stood in my way long enough! I’m going to the Bard’s College!”
Unless you’re looking away. Then it’s “yak yak yak.”
How did cow even pronounce those symbols? It might sound like some unearthly terror. I’d call to complain, too.
Well, there is the innovative retelling Rocket Robin Hood…
“… unlikely to see the same performance twice”… as many of the performers are murdered on opening night. Mysterious!
That’s… uh, that’s kinda how we do it in many Canadian provinces.
Over on X, someone asked Grok if a (real) wire photo distributed by Reuters was fake, Grok said yes, and it's being presented as a trending topic with a bunch of people talking about how MSM lies.
Truly a brainrot platform
Ha, no. And by “something” I meant the Duolingo blog. blog.duolingo.com/japanese-loa...
I read something about Japanese loan words and the traders who brought them. Japan had a word for beer, but biru from the Dutch supplanted it.
I gasped for real.
Leftover rhymes include "fork (two-tined)" and "dork, d'you mind?", if anyone requires them. ---- Description: A Far Side cartoon depicting 4 people in surgical scrubs surrounding a patient from whom one surgeon is removing what appears to be a live porcupine. The caption reads "Well, I guess that explains the abdominal pains." Above the comic, two rhyming lines have been added, with another rhyming line added below, so that all the text adds up to the following limerick: In acute pain was Benjamin Horkubind. A treatment, he went to New York to find. "Well, I guess that explains the abdominal pains," Said the surgeon, as Ben was de-porcupined.
Yesterday my crack team of undergraduate limerickologists and I discovered the remains of a lost limerick within a Far Side cartoon, so we've reconstructed the full poem. Peer review is hereby invited, as we plan to formally publish our findings on a prestigious bathroom stall door later this year.

Where did little Keiko appear from there???!!!
Poor B’Avi. The first time I yelled “NoOOo!” at Star Trek (or any show) in a long time.
Penny is your classic brown tabby cat. She has a little mousy face.
No.
Made me think of the SNL fake ad. “I taste delicious!”
Oh wow! The show came out during my Lego Dark Age so it was always just a strange-looking theme for me. Nothing personal!
When Danielle Smith claimed 80% of federally picked judges had donated to Liberals, that was way higher than any figure I'd researched.
I dug into it. Could confidently write here:
"It is not true. The single media source Smith got that fact from has since corrected it."

I understand why chatbot cheating happens but every time I read about it I want to gently remind everyone that the point of schoolwork is not for the submission to exist. Teachers are not just greedy for more essays or solved equations. The point is to do the work WITH YOUR OWN BRAIN, FOR LEARNING.
