I bought glow in the dark eyes as a tactic in my war against the nocturnal rock squirrel that is chewing my dripper lines. I thought I could scare it. I woke up this morning and my yard looked like a water park for mud golems. It chewed haphazardly, if not purposefully, across my property. I am an animal lover, but I would fire this squirrel out of a cannon if I could. Of course I would give it a small helmet and goggles, maybe even a cape - Mantis Manor is, if anything, OSHA compliant. In happier news, I also made a new and improved googly eye hat. I think these are my best photos. So maybe I should thank the squirrel? I am so confused.
Replying to @ほいたく🐌 I was going to edit this, but it seems more impressive in an unadulterated state- I should have gone further out of the room, but I panicked (you can hear it in my voice). This dog is just so good, I love her - anything for cheese.
They are berries, they grown on a large PLANT not a tree, they are slightly radioactive because of potassium-40 isotope, and The bananas we eat today, Cavendish, are different from pre-1960s bananas, Gros Michel, which were wiped out by “the panama disease,” BUT BANANA FLAVOR like that in @laffytaffy is based on the Gros Michael flavor profile- something most of us have never tried, ergo it tastes much different.
The attack began in the gloaming hours and continued throughout the night. Hill Pigs. A horde of them. Some of them even giants speaking the old tongue and riding ancient jack’o lopes. It’s a miracle the walls are still standing. We had to light to beacons. It’s been over 1000 years. Will anyone answer us? We have provisions if they turn this into a siege, but the cabbage harvest was paltry this winter and our main larder has been raided by the Oracle. May the lord have mercy on our hoses.
