I'm so sensitive to criticism. Maybe that's why I like animals.

Animals are so very not judgy.

My dogs and cats are completely unconcerned by even my weirdest stuff. They only care that I'm nice to them, and that I feed them. I find that very refreshing.

Here's some French tourists meeting a Frillneck Lizard for the first time. They're harmless.

I was helping my mate look for her cat, and I found him napping with the neighbor's dog. Plus, wombats are much bigger than I thought.

Wombats are incredibly cute when they're little. This bloke is a licensed wildlife carer:

Are wombats mean or mellow?

They are gentle but they're also known to have very short tempers. They're rodents so if one bites you it's going to be nasty, but at least we don't have all the nasty diseases here that the rest of the world does.

I wish I could be a full time professional movie critic, with a large following and enough money to live off doing that alone. I want to be the next Roger Ebert critic superstar. Life goals.

I don't want to do a YouTube channel since I hate the sound of my own voice. I plan on having a website full of written reviews in the near future, though.

Is there a local paper that you can write for? We have a free one, Northern Exposure, where any movie column is catch as catch can and not consistent.

Better Roger Ebert than Gene Siskel or Judith Crist. ;)

It's certainly winter for sure...

Wish we had a good snowing here once in a while in Serbia. For like 5 years now it is too warm for the snow to stay, it immediately melts. Really miss this "Winter Wonderland" look on the streets! Enjoy yours!

It is @Aspychata ! I've been wrapping up warm in the house in an effort to delay increasing the heating bill. Treacle Kitten was going crazy when the snow started falling, I'm pretty sure to her it looked like the apocalypse! 😸

Komodo dragons are scary. It's haunting to see them hunt down their prey as it bleeds out.

We have some big lizards here but nothing the size of those things. Our goannas get to about 2.5 metres long and hunt prey up to the size of a house cat.

Cassowaries frighten me to my very core (I don't know why).

They are living theropod dinosaurs and resemble ones that preyed on our pre-human ancestors.

The only known fatality from a cassowary is an idiot in Florida that illegally owned one. He used to go in to it's enclosure with a shield and make it attack him to show off to tourists and he got exactly what he deserved.

Sipping a cup of hot tea. Showed up at the office even though I still have the remnants of bronchitis holding on. Feeling miserable but getting work done regardless. I can sleep when I get home tonight.

Still feeling the congestion, better than yesterday though.

Oddly enough feeling less autistic, if that makes sense. I don't know what's happening but maybe it's a good thing.

Feeling more confident after resolving a workplace conflict maybe. Possibly better understanding a few more things about yourself as well. It all sounds good to me, hope it continues.

The blue ring octopus is a pretty terrifying creature despite being so small.

Odd fact, they don't "inject" venom. After they bite something they dribble and that saliva is venomous, in an underwater situation they will have moved away from you before they start drooling and you're quite safe. Pick them up out of the water because they're pretty and hold them in your hand for a nice photo and there's nowhere else for that drool to go but in the bite. Yes, they're deadly.

So, man lost a war...to emus? That's nuts.

Sad story of populist politics really, just after WWI West Australian farmers were having big problems with an emu plague. 3 ex soldiers with more beers than brains said they'd got out and do what the government refused to and started shooting emus. 1000 rounds of ammunition, about a dozen dead birds and several injured birds.

And the trouble with documentaries about Australia not made by Australians: The video below seems like a serious attempt at a documentary about emus but half the images he shows aren't emus, they're Rheas from South America. As soon as you hear the American accent you may as well stop watching.

I wonder if the reason Africa wasn't hit with Bubonic Plague as hard was because of the abundance of cats in the areas.

More to do with population density I think. Overcrowded cities with no sewer systems. The Great Fire of London was one of the best things that could have happened to it.
FayetheADHDsquirrel

Could be a combination of both population density and rodent population density in which case a higher population of cats could have been an asset since they eat rodents. Either way, a massive fire is a tragedy in it's own right and nothing to be celebrated.

And just now I find out Tatsuya Nakadai died a few days ago. He was one of the greatest film actors of all time.

Robot thing #2 in the middle of being built. When finished it will either A: lay dominoes, or B: explode. Also how does anyone frequently work with really tiny screws without totally losing their mind? This time I'm not doing it all in one night.

So, mankind existed during the time of short nosed bears, dire wolves, and American lions. Our ancestors really had it hard.

But they didn't have Internet influencers, so it was a fair trade.
